    3" OME lift w/ UCAs. ARE overland shell w/ ARE roof rack. 34" Falken Wildpeaks. ARB awning. Road shower. Wilco Offroad Hitchgate Solo High Clearance. LED lighting upgrades. Lockerdown console safe. Weathertech floormats. Duluth deluxe rear seat cover to go under the offroad approved car seats.... :P
    Swapped out the sockets for the front turn signals, and put in Sylvania amber LEDs for the turn signals. The sockets were cracked and crusty from the heat. Getting hyper flash from the LEDS but all of them work fine, if a little fast on the flashes, so, shrug...

    Also, washed it, and ordered a replacement seat cover for the drivers seat, it has the typical split seam and worn edge....

    Shot myself a Turkey over the weekend. The weekend before I shot my first whitetail. Both shot with bow!

    The Tundra made both harvests a little easier for transport.

    Maiden voyage for the bed rack. Everything stayed snug and worked flawlessly for over 300 miles. Picking up a new cargo storage box for the rack this week!

    Winner winner, turkey dinner!

    yeah i was looking at relocating that hood latch with a piece of angled aluminum and just drilling two holes and attaching it with rivets to where you can reach it with your fingers between the grille pieces.

    also, i measured and a 40" would fit pretty nicely. What longer one did you buy?

    Didn’t happen today, but I’m taking the Tundra to a local shop to get the threads where the tow hooks were cleaned up. One side is at least partially stripped, and I figured I’d rather let the professionals fix it than screw it up trying to fix it myself.

    If u got the money for new headlights Do It! If you got the time to clean them up definitely go for the Cerakote Headlight Restoration Kit. I used it on my moms highlander man the difference! These are the results

    Got my baby back from the frame and light doctor, fogs are functioning now and have the bumper fully bolted to the truck.

    Picked up my Yakima DeepSpace 10 cargo box. Really loving how this whole project turned out. Only thing left to do is upgrade the hardware holding the rack to the brackets, paint the stake hole brackets & upright brackets, and keep adding sh*t to it!

    Pics of my TRD rear sway bar installed.
    Took it for a drive today.

    2 things I noticed:
    -no squeeks, rattles or clunks
    -my tires cut loose MUCH easier. Did not expect that so some lady beside me at my 1st red to green light thinks I drive like an @$$hole. Screenshot_20210930-171322.jpg PXL_20210930_204815284.jpg PXL_20210930_204750377.jpg

    Put the girl to work yesterday. :benchpress: My buddy decided to try driving through the river after we got some much needed rain. He was going just fine until he came upon a hole. I've got no idea what he was drinking out of that cup that he left on his roof :rofl: We tried the bungee pull strap from the rear first but it didn't work. I finally had to just get in front of him and winch him up and out.
