    3/1.5 lift. TRD sway bar. Bakflip V1 cover. Fuel wheels w/BFG A/T.
    After 2 months on this site I'm well overdue to say hello! But first I want to thank everyone who helped me drop about $4k on my truck since joining! I've been in 2016 Platinum 4wd for just over a year. Before Tundras.com I was sitting on a 3/1 spacer lift and stock tires/wheels. I've since upgraded to a 6112/5100 setup and could not be happier with the ride. I also installed SPC UCA's. Kept the 1.5" block in the rear and added a 1/2" spacer up front. I'm sitting perfectly level at 3.5/1.5. I'm rolling on 20" Fuel wheels and 33" BFG KO2's. I also installed the Morimoto fog lights (didn't know I needed new fogs until I saw the group buy lol). This is my 6th Toyota truck (1 4Runner) I've owned since I started driving Toyota's 20 years ago. The Tacomas and Pickups were great but I don't see myself ever going back. My Tundra is the Best truck I've ever owned! I'll be looking forward to learning more and spending more!

    More power! Yeah she has enough, but a little more can't hurt. Tuner first and then maybe exhaust. Still researching.
