WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

I think the owner tried to post up on here with his product but was taken down asap since he wasn’t a vendor.

Nice product and love the design. Reminds me of my air freight days. This design is crazy strong.

 

Ah ok, yea these things are legit!...after installing them, they're worth every penny especially for hauling awkward items...being made outta 7075-T6 is a huge bonus, solid as a rock and fitment in the bed is spot on...he did a great job with them!

 

These will be going on soon. Just waiting for my UCAs and rear coils

 

Hell yeah buy a pro and replace all the pro parts

 

It’s the dream!

 

Lol just giving you shit! I think for myself I’d probably have gone a 1794 or platinum and rip that suspension out. But that’s cause I like the luxuries

 

I think the pro have some visual cues I like better, interior accents, big pro lettering and of course fox shocks. Having said this my reasoning to go limited trd is gut the suspension and make my own pro -ish tundra.
35”, trd lift, skid plate and of course getting rid of the old man chrome.

 

Lol all good. I actually ordered a 1794 back in March and still haven’t gotten it. A Pro at MSRP came knocking and I jumped on it. I usually run kings on my trucks and im sure someone will buy the fox pro setup

 

Can’t blame you I’d probably have done the same thing! I like the hud, power steps, tan leather, and black interior headliner/plastics. Found an army green 1794 available and loved the look had to take it!

 

I wish I was close to you to buy your Pro suspension

 

No.

 

I found a play date for my TRD. Looking at the two Sr5’s side by side makes me feel better about not doing the chrome delete on the mustache and logo. I think the truck needs it to break up the front a little.

Bling Bling.

 

I installed the Afe tow hooks and the bed step.

Tow hook install was super easy, I used my impact and just torqued to spec with my wrench (51ft/lb).

These babies are beefy! 5lbs each, some 8”x8” in size and the weld for the hook seems to be pretty well done, with 2x 3” beads of weld.

They are mounted at about the same height as the 2.5 gen TRD Sport, but they are much further back. I can definitely see how one would be concerned about the bumper. However, I can also see how handy these would be for many applications. I’d rather have them than not.

I also installed the Toyota Bed step. I followed these instructions and they were super helpful

My cat shield comes tomorrow and I’ll install it asap.

 

Saw this new platinum hybrid parked and decided to take picture next to it. You can see difference in hight my black platinum has a RC leveling kit and silver looks stock. Rear suspension looks to be same hight

 

The decal is ridiculous lol. I started my drivers side and didn’t finish. Been driving around with a half decal and looking like it’s got a rat bite haircut. Tried the heat gun approach and no heat gun approach and left me stumbled.

I ordered a decal removal wheel and that still doesn’t work.

 

@musahi66 I am thinking more and more that I need to get the bed step because now that I lifted my Tundra its getting harder to get in the bed lol.

 

While I can get in without trying too hard, using this is so much easier. My knees aren't getting younger. And, that Black Friday deal was too sweet to pass up.

 

Today I added a jumper cable kit with plug to get power to the rear of the truck to power a winch on a trailer I have.

 

Giving my rig some personality

 

The red definitely stands out. Really looks good!

 

Is it fused close to the battery? Hate to see the insulation wear thru to short to chassis, will set your truck on fire.

 

looks awesome! Do you have a parts list of what you used? I want to do the same to run my compressor

Regrettably, no, I don't. That has always been a concern, but I have never put any protection. I have had this setup on trucks for 35 years without issue, but I definitely think it's a good idea. I would be interested in finding something suitable to do the job.

 

I used a Jumper cable kit from Amazon. I chopped off the clamp ends and replaced them with battery terminal lugs. As the other fella mentioned, it would be wise to fuse protect it.

Should I fuse protect my winch? Its mounted up front and the cables run all the way into the backseat of the truck where the battery is on the hybrid

 

It would certainly seem like a good idea. I did see on a thread here somewhere that someone mentioned a power interupter for a winch.

 

Not installed today, but recently.

@wing-2: maybe this one:

$11 STETION Car Audio 100 Amp Resettable Fuse Circuit Breaker Car Protect for Audio System Fuse 12-24V DC for Car Audio Amps Overload Protection Fuse (100A)…

https://www.amazon.com/STETION-Rese...88&sprefix=100+amp+inline+fuse,aps,133&sr=8-3

and agree, highly recommend an inline fuse near the battery.

 

Nice. I wonder if something like this

might be more suitable for the #1 gauge cable? Thanks.
