No rubbing, but it was close to the front valance and wheel well trim in the back. I trimmed them slightly for insurance.

 

Switched out the 4 wheel drive valance for the 2 wheel drive one and added Liquid Chrome Super Duty lettering.

 

Leveled it by hauling a ton of pellets as far back in the bed as I could...

 

Amazing... care to share supplier details on the awesome emblems? Thanks! Looks great!

 

Totally off topic, but why do people cover up their license plates???

Identity protection. Same reason you have a username versus using your given name.

 

Ok, but what happens when you get out on the road. Anybody can see it then. Parking lots and such also. One doesn't cover it every time they leave it somewhere. BTW, my user name is my name.

Folks out in public have not been privy to the conversations we've had in here. Some things discussed here have been a little sensitive. Case in point: One poster showed where he hid his garage door opener inside his truck. As easy as it is to break into the 2017 SD & 2015-on F150, his home (and family) would then be vulnerable.
"SESWIM" ...I assumed you coached a swimming team in the southeast & didn't suspect it was your name.

 

Seems a little paranoid. You really think someone is going to search forums, then try to find out where someone lives, then go through the act of committing a felony. That's waaaaay too much work for your average thief. They are just going to snag whatever they can wherever they can. This isn't some mission impossible **** lol.

Either way, whatever makes you warm and fuzzy, doesn't really matter either way. Just a waste of time really. Most of those pictures have GPS data in the EXIF metadata on them. I doubt you're stripping meta data from your photos and that's a much bigger security concern then a license plate.

 

Sorry. Turning off the GPS data was one of the first things I did with my so-called smart phone ... basic op-sec procedure.

 

Solid practice 👍

I doubt 90% of the people blocking out their license plates even know they can.

 

Not criticizing any one for being proactive and trying to prevent identity theft and such. Just seems a little silly regarding the license plate "cover up".

2.5" Ready Lift levelling kit and Fox 2.0 shocks with BDS tuning. I'm loving the look and I'm at 83" overall height so it'll just barely squeeze into most touch less car washes

 

hows those BDS fox ride?

 

They seem pretty good, way better than the stock Rancho junk. I've only driven it maybe 10 miles, so not much experience with them yet. They seem as good as the Bilstein 5100's I had on my '02.

I see you've got a 4runner, my wife drives a 2014 Limited. What are the odds of that?
