Looking good; shying away slightly from the "keeping it simple" motif of the thread title .

Well... no fridge, no winch, no dual batteries or crazy electronics. Maybe call it the fully loaded base model expo rig :sombrero:

Finally got around to boxing in the rear frame. With the RTT and bike rack off the back I was getting some notable bed/frame flex and this definitely seemed to help.

Mocked up

Cross bar added in and I cut and welded the factory spare parts back in. I didn't want a swingout with the bike rack on the back and a dcsb has such limited bed space this seemed like the most reasonable option.

And a little photo dump from the weekend...

How are you liking the new round led lights? What brand are they and do you have any specs?

They are just ebay 160w specials. They are listed as a spot beam but I would classify them as more of a mid spot pattern. Not as advertised but still pretty solid for the price. No complaints thus far.

Did the 13wl tundra brake upgrade. Stops very well and after getting used to the change in pedal feel I'm very happy with it. Huge upgrade to counteract the added weight on the truck.

Do you by any chance have any night shots?
