1794 4x4 Hybrid first impressions (13+ hrs of driving)

Nice review, congrats and sweet truck. Saw one on the road, very modern and slick lines.

Looking forward to picking one up in the future. Or the Sequioa.

 

I loved your last truck and used it for much inspiration....can't wait to see your new one in white.

 

From what I can see on the Ad Mo site (in comparison to the height of the other truck) can I say you got the 3.5” lift?

Truck looks nice…can’t wait to see which wheels you settle on and then on the truck.

 

we set mine up so that when the front and rear bumpers, winch, topper and decked system are on it will have about 2.9in lift, I didn’t want the full big lift.

wheels and tires are on, ghetto chrome removal done (waiting on factory handles, mirror caps, tailgate handle, window trim, and a platinum badge to swap inserts), mounted squadron pros on ditch brackets and putting in my switch pros today- pics tomorrow once it stops raining.

 

very exciting looking forward to seeing this build curious were you able to get this 1794 with no packages (TRD or avs) thus using the package savings to put towards mods, lastly how did you handle the rear suspension (with or w/o air) .

 

Mine is the Off-road, so coils all around. Pouring rain today so photos will have to wait till tomorrow

 

i'm looking into Adventure Motors on their skid plates and a snorkel install...didn't realize they were right here in town. Would have given them some work on my truck....

 

I cannot speak highly enough about the crew over there, amazing folks doing killer work.

 

My truck thanks you!

 

Sorry if I missed it somewhere, but what ditch light brackets are you running? I saw another guy had some but said they seems super flimsy and would not recommend... Thanks!

 

Search Amazon for F150 ditch brackets, these were $15.99 and are rock solid simple u shaped ones.

 

Thats illegal sir! You can't enjoy your new Tundra, you're supposed to be bitchin and whining.

 

The turning radius sucks complete ace... about my only complaint

 

I'm curious what it can tow and how it does?

 

I’ve only towed my fiberglass drift boat so far, but will be towing our air opus op4 camper July 1-6th overlanding across Idaho backcountry roads

 

Good test. Have fun!

 

Where’s the pictures?

 

Was waiting on a few more parts for the chrome delete, but didn’t get the handles installed before leaving the country till the 30th and waiting on 2 pieces of gloss black window trim that bent out during shipping

 

Awesome truck, i love the bronze / white combo. I'm going to order those ditch light brackets right away.

I have a 1794 that i'm attempting to chrome delete as well, so much to do its crazy. You mind sharing what you painted vs. wrapped vs. switched with factory parts?

 

Mustache and lower flavor savor- wrap
Handles, Mirror caps- toyota of cool springs oem
badges- platinum badges with platinum center removed and 1794 replaced
rear bumper and tailgate handle- plati dipped- have a c4 bumper at powdercoat right now
window trim- gloss black trim from toyota.

 

You sir, just made my day!!! In fact, I think I saw your reply over on the Facebook page, you used Color Match Wrap, correct? I have this exact truck, 1794 Hybrid WCP (minus TRD) to be delivered in the next week, in fact it's at the dealer, and hate the chrome and want to replace all parts ASAP!!

If and when you have the time, would you be so kind to share the P/N's for the handles and window trims that you used/ordered?

Thanks,
J-P

 

Are you getting 600 ish mile range on a full tank?

 

Did you paint or wrap the grill and bumper ? Looks like a great color match. I have Windchill on route, would love do the same. Could you provide a link?

 

Colorxlabs.com vinyl wrap.

 

Truck looks great! How did you black out the hood "badges"

Also, where can I find this facebook group??

 

I taped off the entire front end of the truck and sprayed them with plasti dip- nightmare and still got everywhere. If I was to do it again I would get a new set and paint them or dip them off the truck, then install. Interested in pulling them apart and swapping in 1794 TRD badging instead

 

If you're wondering how the hood badges are held on, here's a pic worth a thousand words!

3 white plastic snap-in clips and one screw/bolt

 

Those pictures are a HUGE help. I will certainly tape generously and possibly add some foam/weather stripping on the tape before prying those up.

I agree the taping, spraying and praying is less than ideal but would do it, if needed.

 

Added some photos of how she sits now

 

What did you spend on all your upgrades if I might ask? Why did you go 1794 over the PRO? thanks.
