    Yeah, I’ve replaced the lower ball joints so it’s all good, I do want to replace the fender and door but I also like to hit trails and mud holes so it’s nice to not stress

    Welcome. They make pretty rad looking Baja-style fiberglass fenders for when you finally destroy that thing fully, haha.

    I mean, to his point, I looked at both of those trucks and my first thought was, "damn, those guys use their trucks for truck things".

    I bet people look at my truck and think, "GARAGE QUEEN!"

    Based on the damage, I assumed both trucks were being used as crawlers. but if the appearance bugs you, most of the damage appears limited to panels for the most part, and all you need is a color-matched parts truck in better condition to remedy that situation.

    Although it's not clear if the passenger rocker is damaged on the left-hand truck.

    Dead stock with oem 16" starfish wheels. We'll see how long that lasts. :) Topper of unknown origin.
    Welcome! You have a nice truck.

    New headlights. Give the truck some clear eyes to look through.
