​The bars of aliexpress have arrived, I had others in their day in another hilux and they were much thinner, also the height, for my taste a bit tall, but this way they will protect more clearly. In the photos on aliexpress it comes with a Comanche body, but for that they would be small and do not fit well, although in the hilux, the rear supports, I had to fold them inwards so that they do not support the wheel arches, since the 4 support points are at the same height. For the rest they fit, they are 12 @ with shipping and include 6 LEDs and the 6 corresponding bulbs, I have not proven even if they are all white or if they are some red, I will tell you, for now some superimposed photos:​

And taking advantage of the shipment I asked for some Chanquish, we will see in which car they go hehehe:​

At the moment, I am still waiting for the front bumper and the missing paint, but I continue with adjustments and with the rest that I can advance:

The A&M Garage bumper has arrived, a primer coat and a matte black one and in place with the included leaf spring support. Now missing paint finishes in addition to another color and the interior.

I'm going to change the transfer case, so I gain space and a lot more. I have screwed it to the battery tray, and it is perfect, now it is to cover the bottom, I will make a type plate to the A&M Garage hehehe

Now, like the V8, the axles and others go in the YJ, this has to be assembled in another way, to continue using it with the remains of both, for the moment I have left it like that, although it still has hours left ... there is no rush
