    I just installed mine last weekend... as many others here have said it makes an obvious difference. Lot's of windy backroads in my part of SC, I keep expecting it to roll in the turns like it always has but it's amazingly flat now.
    Guess I can sell my sports car now that I have a "sport truck" :burnrubber:

    Thanks! Yea, the boxes needed the rear most lip trimmed and then a corner where the Leitner rack and upper bolt for the Rago brackets mount trimmed. You can kind of see it in the one photo.

    Got the Victory 4x4 roof rack on. The build quality is really good, however the mounting system is absolute garbage. I will be replacing the rivnuts with actual nuts eventually, I need to take my headliner out anyway to sound deaden the roof. Also I am concerned about the coating, it appears to be a very soft powdercoat. Besides that, I love how it looks!

    Not sure at this point.
    How teeth grinding was it when you were installing it? Drilling required I assume?

    Not as nerve wracking as when I drilled the hole for the snorkel, but it was one of the more infuriating mods I've done. The drill bit they included was only good for two holes, not the 8 required. If I had to do it again, I'd invest in a good carbide drill bit.

    I hope you took precautions to protect your airbags. I know Victory got into some hot water on that point.

    I installed the stillen intake I got the other day on my 2018. Other than that, I've convinced a buddy he needs a 2016 limited after a ride in my new truck. No pics of the intake because I suck. I can add if anyone's interested

    Did the first couple of "mods" to my new 2021 over the weekend. Added N-fab steps, PRO center caps, and blackout emblem overlays. Pretty happy with how everything turned out.

    That looks really good. I know for sure I'm going to do my bumper ends now. How many cans would you suggest to do both the front and rear bumper ends? Did you just tape off to do the bumpers? Did you have to remove anything? Very nice work, thanks for the pics.

    Here’s the link though it ended in February: https://www.tundras.com/threads/gro...ters-current-discount-ends-feb-28-2021.77424/

    Yes to your second question. The WeBoost and inverter are behind the passenger seat. The vacuum is behind the driver’s seat. I use it all the time for dog hair and dirt though I sometimes feel it’s a losing battle.
