Well, if you know your rigs limitations, then it means you take the bypasses more and break less, therefore when all you fawktards are wrenching on your junk back at camp, I'm sitting around the fire drinking more beer with all your ladies......so ya see.......less is more

There is sound logic in this statement. Or you can just park your junk in camp and never stop drinking. Either way is a win

Booger taught me all the logic I know

Didnt know you had a Tundra? Got any Pictures

So you messed with skids only to keep that POS stock bummper with that winch hanging that low?

Don't get me wrong, the sleeper look is kind of cool, but it's not going to do you any favors in the rocks

This is a light duty trail rig / expo / DD, wanted a winch in case we get stuck out in the middle of nowhere and also to do work around my land.

I don't recall saying that I was building this rig specifically for rock crawling.........there mrASSumption

Looks good man. I miss the simplicity of a truck that isn't all over built. But.

Between the 2 of you that truck should be pretty sick when it's done. If you guys need another side project mine just sits now since I work so much. I wouldn't mind. Hehe

Can you post a better picture of how you mounted the bed rack? Did you build the supports or buy something off the shelf?

It's a Thule rack, the supports are for a topper.
