^^^^^^^^^^^^^ See last major post for most recent update (about 5 posts back from this)......
Andddd, once again, Bryan89, from whom I gleaned much input and great ideas from already, ...he had a post on an ih8mud thread (and likely here as well), showing his 4xinnovations bumper installed.......
No lower than stock, BEEF, tow rated and WAY less drop than if I still had the hitch on...... Woooot!

Oh yeah, I totally trust Eric, and he said it worked flawlessly on his rig. He removed his and went to manual and bypassed the entire rear window relay because he obviously still needs power to the rear window. He said it was working perfectly fine in his truck... So if that is your primary problem, I can't see that it will do anything but help....

Yea EXACTLY.
Those power wibdows/mirrors are the next project I hace to take on. That and getting the AC working. I can't stand the summer heat. Especially when the truck has been baking in the sun for a few hours and u go in to drive it. Actually reminds me I gotta refill my Corolla's AC

Thanks bud! I'm surprised how many say, "I don't like those tubes at all... but I would run that!" ...lol. ... guess I shouldnt be......cuz I was one! Lol
Fill that chill juice slot! Lol. ... You were in mine, so u know, from having that relief at 90*f+ days, what a bonus it is to have AC, especially in a rig that never comes close to overheating! Lol.

Prepped the 4xinnovations bumper for paint (fine metal sanding cloth/tackcloth/acetone/denatured alcohol)....
I will be doing hammered black and will likely switch the tires to the Outlaw 2's, as I really love em, period, end of story, fini, salute! Haha..... I might not just yet, but I just dont want black wheels.... Not my thing just yet. So I will likely paint the American Racing Baja's Hammered Black(or just a smooth version of the same color)... What do ya think?

Which silver wheels? The SR5 or Outlaw 2 ? Obviously the SR5 won't work for me, but just curious which you liked best.

PS>
Still wanting to sell my 4 BFG 31x10.50x15 and one LeMans 31x10.50x15 all on Aluminum SR5 Rims....
The BFG's haven't even broken the horizontal indicator tabs!
180$ shipped from Summit, 175$ everywhere else..... , + tax = $192.50 + $15 mounting and balance = $207.50 .... x 4 = $830.00 !!! .... Add the spare LeMans has excellent tread/75%..... and that's another WHATEVER, even at another hundred dollars you're already near $1000 for 5 tires mounted and balanced .... and those prices are with NOOOOO wheels! ....
I have all 5 mounted and balanced on SR5 rims for $700 !!!
This is the last time I will list this on my thread and then on my parts thread it goes , along with CRAIGSLIST.....
I would really rather not deal with Craigslist on this dollar amount item... And honestly I really don't want strange people seeing all the crap in my garage. But at this point I have to cover things in order to never be accruing any debt over this whatsoever. I still haven't charged one thing... However, I might still end up having to spend much more than I had planned on help with the SAS... So I and basically saying that I am in no way desperate, but would like to get rid of things that I am NOT going to use that would help fund further things... Along with the fact that I would like somebody cool from this site, especially somebody that I know, to get these tires and wheels!
LeMans A/T ......
Rims.....
*****************************************
I am also selling my LC header and I know that a couple people on here are looking into that... I actually no somebody that was definitely going to do it but that are now actually selling their truck due to circumstances unseen coming along...
$250.00 for a $400.00 header that was used for around 4,000 miles.... ? I think that's more than fair. It comes with the pipe from the collector to the cat and actually still have the cat attached to it....$25 more if u want it (can gut it and run a hollow cat thats only a few thousand miles old... Not sure its working well or not, so I grabbed a new one) If you do not want the cat I will cut it off and also include the separate tapered 3/8 flanged connector/ pipe adapter I have in the shop.

I'm selling the header because eventually I am going to a 3RZ.... Possibly supercharged. So I am NOT thinking that I should spend the money to have another pipe adapted when I just put my stock one back on before smog. I was really torn about it to be honest, but I have enough going on and I just don't want any more projects on the motor or fabrication that would be needed to fit certain things, thereafter. Remember, I still have to rebuild this trans or try out the one that I got at the yard. I'm going to be taking apart the trans and transfer case to at least do new gaskets.... and take a really good look inside the transmission at the sink syncros and such. I'm not a transmission rebuilders so I'm not likely going to be able to tell anything in great detail other than if bearings are really worn out or shafts need replacing, etcetera. Bottom line is that it's a whole nother project that I eventually have to address. I'm also considering doing dual cases, so... You see where I'm going? Lol

How do you find those places that buy cats? I have two dead ones from my datsun and yota sitting in the garage 
If you want to talk about pulling transmissions apart, call me....went through that twice and can offer some shopping advice too :-)
