Hi, Just posting this as I've completed my "budget" build and am turning the page to a new chapter that will not be budget friendly (for me at least). Hopefully this gives someone some inspiration. Yes, I understand this may or may not be "budget" to some, but I purchased everything with a sale...

haha, I hear ya. If you end up flying solo, I used the jack that is in the cargo area to hold up the rear of the slider and put the front on my body. Was then able to shimmy under and hand tighten the 1st bolt. That was enough to hold it up and hand tighten the rest. Only drawbacks to welding...

Unless you're wanting them welded or are physically unable, I highly recommend installing yourself. Just ensure you have the proper torquing specs and a buddy to help hold them up while installing (Don't ask me how I know). Shoot, if I was closer I'd help.

Yea I see what you mean, honestly you are right. After some normal wear and tear/grime you really won't know the difference.

These are both on my SR5. Fit perfectly.

Yes

Take foot off the pedal and start it. Shift neutral.

Right on the money, that’s why I find it so funny the off-road higher trims have bigger wheels. Then again the vast majority of people buying them will never use them heavily off-road if at all. Which is okay too.

Super late to this, but usually 20-18 depending on terrain

PM Me, I just installed mine yesterday

If you're looking for a little flair, these are two I mocked up for my underground.

The color difference would drive me insane but to each their own. I really don't understand why you would spend that much money on a vehicle and then cheap out on a significant aesthetic aspect. It's like buying a beautiful house and furnishing it at goodwill

First trip after picking her up, Many since, and always more to come

I took mine off to change the oil; however, you don’t need to remove all the bolts to slide them on and off. It only takes about 5 minutes with an impact driver, or maybe 10 by hand.

Yes, I have a power washer attachment for underbelly and for the frame. I have no intention of ever selling the car.

Personally, I went with the SR5 and will use the extra dough to upgrade it exactly how I’d like to. As of current, I have trailhunter skid set, OTT Tune, 33’ M/T’s, spot and flood ditch lights, sliders and roof rack in the mail. Once I’m out of warranty I’ll replace the suspension, haven’t had...

1 singular mile on the weekdays. 100 - 400 on weekends.

This! Highly recommend getting out and seeing what you genuinely need. Personally I put armor in tier 1 because I destroyed the flimsy little rain shield and bent up my predator side steps.

Haha, completely fair. If they are still available in about a month or so I may have to make the drive up from Baltimore. I grew up around Doylestown, Go birds!

Why are you getting rid of them? Or more candidly, what was your mistake?
