22’ TRD PRO mods? Let’s see

That should buff out....

Just Kidding. This sucks and I am angry for you. The most thing I am angry about is the battle you get to look forward to with the other persons insurance. I hope they make you whole again as soon as possible.

 

Decided on 35" KO2 after reading some posts here. Very happy with the fit and look. Also installed the RetraxONE MX and Yakima Overhaul HD Rack. Waiting on the Dobinson C59-837V rear springs which I should get on next week to hopefully improve the squat when towing and loaded up with camping gear. Will post updates after that!

 

What size did you go with? Any rubbing? Noticeable mpg change?

 

35 x 12.5 x 18

Only rubbing I've noticed is at full lock when going into driveway. I think it catches the front mudflap on the inside, as this is the closest part. With removal there would be absolutely no issue. I plan to leave it for now unless it becomes more bothersome. At a stop, there is still about 1/4" clearance of the mudflap. KO2's definitely run small (35 is actually 34.5") so I think with a true 35 you would probably have to remove the mudflap. I also plan to get an alignment next week, so we will see if that changes the clearance at all, but probably it will be negligible.

My driving is mostly highway around 60mph. Stock I was averaging 17mpg. First 60 miles or so on the new tires is reading about 15.5mpg. Actual speed is about 3mph more on the larger tires at 65mph, so this will offset the slight drop in mpg a bit. Expected to lose some given the size and weight increase.

 

Right on,
What load range did you go with?

 

I think the only option in that size is Load Range E. Definitely rides a little rougher than stock but still very good. Happy with the switch.

 

Installed the recently released BulletPoint mount for the 2022+ Tundra.

 

What size are the arms? Any chance you can take some photos with your phone in the mount? Are you going to place it above the air vent?

 

There’s a chart at https://www.bulletpointmountingsolu...products/carbon-fiber-kevlar-hybrid-mount-arm

My radio goes in the holder just over the air vent, I usually put my phone on the wireless charger but have the spare arm for passengers if needed. I can also swap out the right side for a tablet holder.

The mounts will hold a 13 Pro Max, if that helps with size reference.

 

You were pretty close, came in at $7,200 not including ceramic coating or PPF.

I am thinking at this point I might just do the Sequoia front end conversion.

 

Ill play. This is my Pro Platinum* has some Platinum interior goodies, like a black headliner and mood lighting.

- 18x9 Method 315 +18
- 37x12.5 Nitto Recon Grappler
* Inner Fender Tire Deflector was eaten by my Sawzall, clears lock to lock.
- King Front and Rear
- Dobinsons 1" Rear Spring
- GFC Topper
- Too Many Baja Designs Lights
- WeBoost
- Race Radio
- Switch Pros
- Rear Drawer System (Homebrewed)
*Integrated ARB Twin Air Compressor

 

and I use it. This mud was not intentional. Mud gives me PTSD. Road conditions went from perfect to grease in 1 mile. At that point we were already 30+ miles in and committed.

 

Did you order the platinum mood lighting and headliner? How much and how difficult was the conversion?

 

Do you know what length your arms are?

 

Yessir.

I was able to find some on Amazon.

 

I know a lot of us are interested in doing a black headliner, care to share the details? @onepremiere

 

They are the “standard” 7cm arms which is what they ship with the kits. For the right side, I might replace with a large arm (which is 10cm).

 

Installed some 35x12.5r18 wildpeaks no rubbing at all . But having issues with balancing was expecting same ride as stock but feels constantly bumpy . Might take them again to get balanced. Looks awesome though

 

Rough ride might be due to being F rated tires. Looks great.

 

Thanks! That’s what I was thinking but didn’t want the noise of toyos so had to trade off . Feels more planted but a little bumpy . Took it to a tire shop they balanced and was off took it to discount tire and they said balance was off so might need another go around .

 

Find a tire shop that does road forced balancing. Had the same issue in my taco.

 

Thanks that’s my next step. Don’t know if a toyo open country AT III 35/12.5r18 in load range D would be better or not . From what I know toyos are worse ride quality and a bit noisier

 

I can’t answer that. But weight is much less being LR D

 

Wow, I got Toyos on our Jeep and my buddy just did 35 toyos on his. They are amazing. Quiet, nice ride, and wet handling is really good. (PNW residents)

 

What tire pressure are you running? Proper tire pressure can alleviate some of the rough riding symptoms. That being said, you pick an F rated tire you are sacrificing ride quality. You should be looking for a C or D rated tire for a TRD Pro given it's design intent, off roading.

 

I’m running Nitto Recons and I get a bumpy ride between 28-32mph only. It’s very odd. I rotated my tires from back to front and no change. I did add wheel spacers also. I might get my tires rebalanced to see if that helps.

 

I’m running 33psi and yes only found the toyos in D rated everything else in that size is F rated

 

Leer 100xr/ Front Runner canopy rack

 

Anybody know of any lifts options besides Westscott that keeps stock suspension . Anyone with westscott comments on ride quality ?
