build is looking great

on the tail light guards, I had a set on my '05 Taco...a branch got caught in it and ended up doing more damage:

in my case I would have been better of with out them..

Skids and shocks on, here are some pics at Rausch creek checking for rubbing with the 33's. They rubbed a little but with a small amount of trimming of the plastic inner fender and bending the pinch weld over there's no more rubbing!

AFE cold air intake installed, havn't checked the MPG yet, didn't notice much if any power gain but it does seem to be a little quicker to respond. I'll post a update after i've run a tank of gas throught with it and after I hit the highway to check on power
oh and yeah thats Rausch Creek mud all over the engine, I stole from them and havn't gotten around to washing off yet. speaking of mud, do I need to get one of those cloth covers or pre filter things to put on the filter when i'm going to be in mud or lots of dust?

wow that's a little muddy. That shield might be good enough, but I would run a prefilter as well.

if you're gonna roll deep into mud like that, put the stock intake back on and buy a snorkel.

MaK I think that's more of a kicked up mud then water crossing type mud. My engine bay is worse and I am carb'd.

I don't have experience with them but look into the Outerwears ones. They make water repellent ones as well.
