Thanks.............

yes sir, going to remove about 4 inches, want to keep a little piece for the tailgaters.

Order a new rear upper shock mount from Low Range offroad last night, should be here in 3 or 4 days. As I get extra money it will go into the TOYota, piece by piece.

Well I did say 4 inches off the frame, so it's 7 1/2 inches. Now going to cut it off as we re-welded the receiver piece back on.









and as you can see new tailgate (free $) no rust
