What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Thank you!

 

The drain tube you use makes it look like your truck bleeds Cavalry Blue! AWESOME!

 

Damn that thing is awesome!

 

Lookin sexy Patrick! The truck...not you!
Are your wheels 20x9?

 

lol...come on man, throw a little love my way, I'm married 15 years and don't get many compliments anymore yes sir, they're 20x9 +12 wrapped in 35x12.5
and thank you!

 

Pretty nice ... but does this mod change any dynamic on how the rear sway bar perform ?? I see it raised higher than how they normally are...

 

I like it a lot !!!

 

I've only driven 10 miles or so with the sway bar in the original position, and about the same distance with it in the new position. I didn't notice anything different between the two honestly, but haven't driven it enough to get a good feel. Before I changed it, the tie rod was nearly vertical. I would like to think that thats preventing any amount of droop from happening. Now that the tie rod is at an angle, the axel has more freedom to travel upwards and downwards.

Others have used it in this configuration more than I have and likely can better answer this.

Thanks brother! I’m loving it!

 

Was yours like this before ? So its actually higher right ..? Just wondering ...

 

Thanks! Just need to build up the courage to take apart the trim and paint the silver section

 

Thats the easy part ... i thought you would've done that while door panel was off ...

 

I'm not lifted enough for 35s but am wanting to run 33x12.50s next time I go for tires. I'm running 20x9 +18s with 275/60 (33x11) and need more sidewall protection. By the way your YouTube videos are awesome!

 

Yeah it was like that originally. I have a pick a couple pages back. With the sway bar in that position, the sway bar is closer to the front of the truck, and the tie rod is pulled more to the front, making it nearly vertical. Of course, this is with 2.5" lift in the back.

 

Thanks. That’s certainly a lot better looking than I thought it might be lol.

 

Now im not an expert but with your set up benefit me since i have a 6” lift with CB+3 ..? Thanks

 

You need to show this off in the silver sky section on our forum! That thing is sweet

Or you could take the easy route and shop eBay for red overlay set.

 

You're welcome! I'm happy with it. I might pull it back out and extend it the extra inch.

 

Nope, I'm not a patient man and that takes a lot of patience.

 

Thanks and Will do....need to clean her up first. Just got it done today.

 

I'm no expert either, but I would think with a 3" lift in the rear you would be better off in the position I have it in.

 

Got it .. thanks

 

SR5 handles or what? Mine are chrome on the Platinum.

 

My father-in-law and I got the front coilovers out and added 2 Coachbuilder shims on each side.



I added some fender washers to extend the bump stops a little bit, but I wasn't sure exactly how much I needed to extend. Seemed like the general rule was 1:3 for extension to spacer ratio, so I should be close... Any tips are appreciated.


I also installed 1" MaxTrac shackles in the rear, which went it really easy. Kept a little bit of the rake I had before adding the shims in the front.

 

I believe they’re SR handles. My SR5 had silver handles.

 

Yep SR. (2x 69205-0C040, 2x 69206-0C040). Front and back are the same (was for my DC anyway).

 

Does the TRD Pro come with black handles?
