3rd Gen Accessory Thread

Alright. So the bedstep install isn't bad if you have instructions. I could probably do it in 10-15 minutes now that I know.


You'll need to remove the bracket circled. It's a 10mm nut up top and a pop rivet on the bottom.
The bracket slides into the bumper channel and three bolts to secure the bracket (14mm)


Then the step itself mounts to the bracket with bolts from the top (15mm).

 

thanks for this, mine will be here any day. How do you like it?

 

Anybody have torque specs on the bed step? I went in to the dealership yesterday to the installation guide, but they couldn't find it.

 

Thanks for the info

 

Seems like Toyota needs to train people more. If they had access to TiS. They should be able to look it up. Or they didn’t want to give it out so they can install it for a price.

 

I am probably not the first to do this. This topper was made for an F-150 (I think) so it was a tough fit on the Tundra's wider and longer bed. Had to remove the side Toyota utility tracks as I didn't have the optional utility clamps.

 

It works. I'm 270lbs and it didn't feel weak or anything. Had an AMP one on my Ram previous to my Tundra and it looks almost identical.

 

Question. I tried ordering the actual 'step part' of the assembly from Sparks Parts but they cancelled it saying it wasnt available. Where did you order yours?

 

Here is what the drains look like. They are in the front of the bed and block the 2 inner most drain holes and prevents the water from draining. I also included a pic of the rail. To install the cover, you remove the rail and the cover brackets use the rail bolt holes. Then the rails attach to the brackets of the cover. This lowers and moves the rails out a bit. So far I like it. It is not 100% water proof, so don't keep your important documents back there, but normal back of the truck gear will do fine. I tested and it is really easy to open the cover if you know where the release cables are located. It just takes an old hanger or a locksmith slimjim. I didn't attempt prying it, but its probably not to difficult to pry it open. The only issue I had was the side release buckles were broken out of the box. The Toyota dealer I purchased the cover from replaced them without issue, but they look really weak and are likely to break easily. They are used to hold the cover in the fully folded position.

 

Just checked with the Bestop site re: the TrekStep for the 2022. Chat rep said they are testing it next week and thinks it will be available in about one month. The TrekStep for the 2021 Tundra is $220. Does anyone have experience with this brand?

 

where can buy this logo?

 

thanks for the info! Does the top have a glossy finish, matte finish or more like a bed spray-in liner finish?

 

Purchased this Toyota Badge on ebay.

 

The OEM top has a smooth Matte finish…not the rough spray in bed liner texture.

I believe Rough Country’s 22 Tonneau has a more glossy finish and the MX 4’s used to have both options available for the 2nd gens I believe…not sure if that choice is available for their new 22 covers

 

Has anyone ordered running boards from go rhino yet? Website shows rb10 and tv 20 available but every other rep I’ve spoken to has said they aren’t available and it’s a glitch in the system. The other half says ready to order and will ship end of the month.

Looks killer care to show the “poke” of the tires

 

I bought mine off one of the Tundra Facebook group from a gentleman that didn't want it on his.

 

I have, called directly as website was running clunky. I ordered Dominator D1 for 22 Tundra DC OR Limited. Ordered on Pi day (3/14) with 14% off, should ship today or Monday.

 

For DC, did you order crew cab or extended? I’m not getting a straight answer in regards to that either.

 

The vinyl company that everyone uses on here, who's name I'm forgetting - someone help me out - mentioned he plans to make the heritage "TOYOTA" badge used on the 22 TRD Pro dash once he's able to acquire a vehicle for measurements, FYI. I'm thinking it will be worth the wait!

Matte finish for the panels and maybe you could call the metal strips between the panels semi-gloss.

 

Extended, turns out to be 80 inches long which is the cab length for DC.

 

Damn! That's a good stance!! Nice looking truck.

 

Finally installed my Wheels!!

Looks like Icon is doing some R&D on suspension.

 

I actually called icon to see when they were expecting to release their suspension kits and they said the parts were being sent to first article in May and wouldn't go to production until the end of the year!

 

Confirming the part i ordered was in fact just the bracket. However, fortunately the Toyota parts rep i spoke to found the actual 'step part' PTS30-34000-ST in a warehouse in California so he's shipping it up to me so i can complete the install. He mentioned there was only 2 left in the system.. so its pretty limited to get your hands on currently.

 

Thanks for the confirmation.
