    A little of this and a little of that.
    Caleb, you should start a new thread for these questions. It'll make it easier to keep track of in the future.

    Reduces body roll. So will help truck feel more like a sports car vs truck.

    Is it needed? When is this site about stuff you need vs want? LOL. Depends what you're looking for. If you don't plan to off-road, then I believe it enhances the driving performance/feel of the truck when turning and cornering. If you plan to off-road your truck, it can reduce travel on the suspension so not always bueno. But plenty of guys here that have it that can chime in and provide more info.

    Sucks! I know changing the oil on these trucks are a PITA but definitely worth it for this ^^^^ reason. Just changed mine last weekend.

    Check your skid plate, common problem on the pros.

    My pro did it, I addressed it at a recent visit to the dealer, they put some rubber spacers on the rear bolts of the plate, the noise kind of went away but it's slowly coming back. May try to fix it myself like a lot of the guys with pros have done.

    Yeah, apparently it's the front sway bar banging on the skid plate, I took my skid plate off to test the theory and the sound completely went away.

    Great looking truck! Are those amber lights in the bulge a kit or did you just fit some aftermarkets? Any details would be appreciated.

    Ya, that would drive me nuts. I would just remove the skid plate and replace with an aftermarket one such as @RCIoffroad

    Do you mean once the factory toyotas are installed? Or the removal. I stopped once I tried twice. Aligned them the old fashioned way and taped up the connector.

    The motors in the spyders had it all lined up so I thought and notice the housing cracked on the spyder when I activated the motors. So just left them how it came from spyder second time around.
