The tube is a fly rod tube I made with some ABS tube, PVC elbows, and an ammo can.
The Yakima racks get used for just about everything.

Did a little driving around on some local logging roads today and snapped a few pictures.
I really need to get a breaker for the AUX fuse panel and a battery isolation switch for the winch solenoid.
I ran the winch controller "socket" through the firewall and onto the dash. I had planned on removing the factory clock and putting a "control panel" of sorts there, but opted for this much simpler solution. Now I can still tell time...
Next priorities are:
Skid Plates
Upper Control Arms
Interior protection (Seat covers, floor mats that are worth a damn)
Recovery Gear
and I'm sure a million other things.... I don't even know why I make lists anymore.

That fly rod tube is legit. Any more details? Don't feel like droppin $500 on a Titan.

This is still my favorite truck on this site. Camper looks great.

Thanks! I am really enjoying it. The performance of the truck is quite good with the FWC. I had expected a large drop in MPG and performance but saw almost no change in MPG, but did notice a loss of power, especially up hill...
As far as specs, it is a 2003 FWC Eagle in great shape. 2003 turned a new page for FWC. With new ownership came all plywood and no particle board, resulting in a higher quality and craftsmanship.
I'll snap some pictures and get them up here by the end of the week.

Sweet. I really like the light hoops on your bumper. I'm about to start making a bumper for my 1st gen Tundra and am going to try to style some light hoops after yours.
