Zach_attack4 Builds a Tundra

Thanks! I'm running the Toytec Aluma Series at the preset height. They only rub in reverse a little bit on the front of the fender liner.

 

Got out to the Poconos and found a few small trails this past weekend. First time with the new truck and really it was the first time in general. Nothing crazy however things did get pretty tight (a whole lot more than the pics show) and I definitely pinstriped it. I had fun and learned a few things as well. The trail didn't quite turn out the way I thought it would and only had one real way out. I pulled off a 20 point turn in a swamp not long after I took these pics. I wish I could have got a few more pictures but I was alone.

Not going to lie, I love this Army Green with the fall colors.

 

Where is this in the Poconos? I grew up in Tannersville. Nice rig!

 

Being a fellow army green owner. Everytime i see badass AG trucks like this i want to take out the credit card and max it

 

Sweeeeet truck, very OEM+! It looks like it was made to be in the woods.

 

I guess this would be considered the northern part of the Poconos. A little north east of Jack Frost and the trails go right up to Montage Mountain. There was a single entrance off a main road (little did I know, the only way in or out) and then the trails are wide enough for one vehicle with a couple spots to turn around. The Tundra barely fit through a few of the spots.

 

Awesome builds. Where at in York are you from? I’m in the Red Lion area and have an army green sport. Love the color.

 

I'm in West York but more toward Dover. I frequent the Red Lion area though. I'll have to keep an eye open.

 

Couple of new pics. One from when I slapped the skids on:


Another from helping clear some land:


And another that has some of the lights mounted:

 

Taking a trip to South Dakota soon and wanted to get a little bit of secure storage in the bed. Ended up building my own tonneau cover to work with the Leitner rack and everything else in the bed that isn't supposed to work together. Turned our pretty nice. The rear half can disconnect and slide open for better access to the Trail Edition boxes. It's not completely watertight but it's pretty close. Best part is, if the bed is locked the cover can't be moved or opened. Proud of this one honestly.

 

Took a trip from Pennsylvania to South Dakota and back. Hit a ton of places in between as well. All was good until it decided to rain almost everyday for a week on the way home. Still had a blast.

Here's a pic in Kansas of all places.

 

No real updates to the build lately. Looking to add a bumper, sliders, and some more armor soon. I did get a bit muddy recently though so that's fun.

 

Just completed a trip through Shenandoah NP, the full Blue Ridge Parkway, Great Smoky Mountains NP, Mammoth Cave NP, and a few surrounding areas. Added a few items to the truck beforehand too. The OVS awning was a lifesaver and game changer for some of the weather we encountered.

Hit a rather large detour due to a mud slide in GSM NP and ended up on Tail of the Dragon. This was fun in my RS4 previously and a little sketchy in a loaded Tundra.

 

I love that photo!

 

Went on a trip to Maine and New Hampshire to visit a friend's car show and then do some camping with friends. Good times with more to come.

Added some gear to the truck since the last update. C4 bumper, Baja lights, Prinsu rack, sliders, Weboost repeater, trans cooler, Iceco freezer, Ecoflow power station, Blueseas 12v bed connections, Kuat bike rack, Toyo tires and some other odds and ends.

 

Great looking rig! How have the Toytec Coilovers been treating you over the long haul?

 

This is the greatest Killboy shot ever.

 

Not bad at all. I really have no complaints for all I’ve done. I did notice cupping on my old tires which I believe was from not rotating them enough. The front springs have their paint flaking as well. I have maybe 40k miles on them currently. I have been looking at upgrading but that’s simply because the truck has been evolving.

I may be partial but I’d have to agree

 

Hit the road again to WV for a long weekend. Found some cool spots that I plan to revisit in the fall.

 

Any more details on this and what you made it from? Looks amazing!

 

Love the hood! That def makes the truck look sharp!

That army green thooooo! Love it!

 

Thanks! I made a frame from 1" aluminum square stock that I picked up at the local hardware store. Nothing fancy. Just some corner brackets and fasteners. I used 3M automotive tape to adhere a sheet of ABS plastic to each of the frames as the cover. Both halves of the cover slide in on top the bed rails and between the Leitner rack. The front half bolts to the bed rails while the rear half is designed to slide open on top of the front half for access. I connect the front and rear with clips on the underside and the rear half tightens down with turnbuckles to the factory tie downs. What's nice is when the tailgate is locked, you can't access the cargo or remove the cover without destroying it.

 

Went and explored central PA with some friends. Nothing crazy. Just some good times and fall vibes.

 

Well done, I love it! I have a BAMF rack and my struggle has always been feeling like my gear is secure when traveling, with weatherproof being a plus. I used to run a truckvault with bedslide on top, now just a bedslide but I like what you did, especially with leveraging the tailgate to lock it all down
