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

There info in this thread from @Taikowaza on how to instruct them to do the skid plate so it fits. I am assuming they were having issues with the sway bar. Have seen a few pictures of it installed incorrectly - but there is a pretty simple solve.

Waited to post until I gave it a good test. I am very happy with the fas-top tonneau/canopy combo. Extremely versatile and well built.

 

That is awesome! I didn’t know these existed.

 

yah, it is a great setup. Especially for the price.

Baby got her first bath today.

 

What are these?

 

I believe these are charger inserts for wireless charging. Some people have cases / phones that the current charger just doesn’t charge very well. This would address that.

 

Very nice. I am thinking about doing the same (and have the TRD OR grill on my 1794) - may I ask how you did the mustache? Wrap? or bought a new painted one? Thanks.

 

I bought painted ones from paintedoemparts when they had a good sale a little while back. It was cheaper than having someone wrap it without seams and should be more durable. I also didn’t want it getting torn up as then I’m staring at chrome specks. I put 25,000+ miles a year on a vehicle, so I’d quickly be looking at something that would aggravate me.

I plan to wrap the back bumper inserts as they won’t be seeing rocks, so they should last.

 

Curious what the sale price was? See $695 right now on "Sale" from $775. Thanks.

 

I was looking into that soft topper but they dont have much info on the site. Is the side held down just with velcro? Also at the pivot point does it have a bar that kind sticks down?

 

It was $575 or $600 I think. It was around Black Friday. I had to clear my cookies to actually see it, otherwise it would show $695. That is still cheaper than anyone else. I’m happy with it as the paint matches perfectly and there are no flaws.

 

Started putting on a Retrax power tonneau with corresponding UpTop Truss Rack.

 

Messing with the exhaust today. Didn’t take a video today, but this is basically what it sounds like /

Installed Christmas goodies on my 23 today.
1. EGR in channel widow visors. (It’s Oregon, rains a lot)
2. Rough Country Defender 2” wheel flares to cover the 1.5 to 2” poke from my 35’s. Ordered the black “bolts” didn’t want the stainless look.

Look good to me unpainted on my magnetic grey metallic color.



No more poke!



before and after:

 

My man! Thank you

 

Can I get some more pics of the fender flairs. Like side shots and close ups. Please and thank you. I've wanted to got this route but haven't found anything available until you posted this.

 

Get the sport models without the bolts and weird cut outs- much cleaner looking

 

agree - those look nice!

 

how was the install?
Using your links I ordered the insert and DD light bar. Just looking for any tips if ya got any…

 

It is pouring rain here in Oregon so a good photo op may be days away.
Just look at the pics on Rough Country website. They have 3 styles to choose from.
I have had smooth flairs on many of my rigs over the years.Too common/normal, I wanted something different.

 

Has anyone put a Fas-top on a 6.5 bed yet? If so how is the fit?

 

The rivets looks good man. I had color matched flairs with rivets on my 2014 1794…loved the look. Think I may opt for the non-rivets sport ones this time (If I can convince the wife!).

 

You were looking at “softtopper” like the brand or the softtopper on fas-top site? Just making sure I know which one you are talking about.

The Fas-top is secured with Velcro along the side and then 4 tension straps, 1x at each corner. I was a little worried about the Velcro, but it holds just fine. The pivot point is about in the middle of the bed. It doesn’t really stick down. When you fold the whole topper down, it’s tucks away below the bed rails at the front of the truck, taking up very little space. Below is a link to a video that gives you a good idea of how it works.


If you are looking for just a canopy, “softtopper” is a great brand. I had one on my Tacoma for 5 years with no issues. I wanted a tonneau and a canopy so the fas-top was my choice. Very happy so far.

Thanks for all the info

 

Looks like rough country sport flares has some weird black rubber gasket in between flare and body. If your going for a raw plastic look, sure but others wanted to color paint then realized that weird black piece will be protruding in between the 2x pieces.

wow, been having trucks since 05 and never knew this brand fas-top had a tonneau and canopy built into 1 unit, guess it will have to be on the next truck, i already got a tonneau cover installed but this canopy is pimp for my dog.
