Awesome video! I used your Amazon links for everything, but the mids come up unavailable. Can you send another link pointing where to buy? Also, I'm new to electrical. I have an '03 with the Pioneer amp, non-nav. Which speakers require which resistors, does each need its own resistor, and are you decreasing or increasing impedance? Last, is there any adapter needed for the speakers, like Metra 72-8104 Speaker Connector on Amazon. Thanks!

Hey man, love the build and videos! I just bought a black 2005 GX and looking forward to building it out very similar. What order would you recommend these mods? I'm most concerned about picking the right lift that will compensate for the bumper etc. and it's by far the most expensive on those Dobbinsons. Cheers!

Think about what you intend to do with the rig and you can plan your build around that. (for example your spring load rating). If you're new to offroading, a proper suspension and tires will yield more returns than bumpers (at first). I have the dobinsons 3-way MRR and IMO it is an incredible value. being able to adjust the suspension is a game changer. My mod order won't help you because I did them all at the same time and took almost a year to finish.
