    @RainMan_PNW is really starting to pull away from me. I’ve been sittting at 41k in my ‘21 for a while now. We’ve been driving the LX a lot since we got it in Nov.

    That's right. Forgot all about that. Was actually trying to ping Roman to help out the guy trying to buy OEM LEDs last week and was wondering what was up.

    Thanks.

    I have done this to my crewmax. It was pretty nerve racking to start, but I followed the ESP video for installation. It turned out all easy and well. I believe I have some step by step pictures of my installation somewhere. Send me a message if you would like to see them if you decide to do it.

    With the appalling BS his dealership tried to pull on me when I bought a vehicle from them a few years ago, I’m not surprised. That place is shady.

    Toyota of Cool Springs if anyone is curious.

    I used your switch included with the harness. It’s the only electric I’m running so far so no need to replace it in my opinion. Plus, it’s actually a pretty cool switch compared to the industry standard. It’s usually overlooked, but I like yours.

    Got it put back together yesterday. I started on Thursday after work and got to the point where I was wrapping it up and still wanted to add the USB on my dash mount and replace the cigarette lighter in the rear with USB and constant on. Decided to wrap it up on Friday and it ended up being a Tundra day

    Looks great. I'm a big fan of the OG Pro grill as well, especially with the OEM LED headlights. The long horizontal bar of the grill goes well with the LED horizontal DRL's.

    Nice Deere, love the Yanmar diesels in those. Does it run?

    After much research, and much time on the forum, I've decided I don't really need a coilover lift. I would like to run 35's at the most, or some wide 33's at the least. I'll leave the serious off roading for my Polaris.
    I think 3" lift should suffice.
    Now the arduous task of deciding which manufacturer.
    Any input is welcomed.

    If your current shocks are still in decent shape, the Westcott kit is a good option. https://westcottdesigns.net/product/toyota-tundra-trd-off-road-preload-collar-lift-kit/

    Correct, a lift alone won’t get you all the clearance. Removing the mudflaps and pushing the bumper plastics forward should get you close. Every truck is a little different on what all is required. It also depends on the actual tire and width you go with. 295/70R18 is around 34” and fills out the wheel wells nicely without needing as aggressive of clearancing.

    Nice to know, thanks again.
    I'm looking at Mickey Thompson Baja Legend MTZ in 33x12.50/R20. But I might upgrade the size to 295 if they'll work with that lift.

    Installed the Diode Dynamics 42 bar with Hotshot upgraded brackets. It's a snug fit, and you can't adjust the angle when it's in so I just leveled the bar with the bumper mounts and tightened it down. I'll sort the wiring later, but it works and hope its pointed in the right direction.

    It takes up the entire bumper opening, so it blocks that airflow, but I doubt it will cause much issue. The grill opening is so large I'm sure it more than makes up for it. I believe the cooler right behind that opening is the powersteering cooler.
