Rock Warrior club

So so sick.

 

Hey everyone. I have a 2011 Rock Warrior, I just bought a Toytec boss 3" lift kit with the SPC UCA. I plan on keeping the stock rock warrior wheels on but I am looking to put bigger tires. Right now I am considering 315/70r17 AT. Will i need wheel spacer to get this to fit? Are there any other recommendations for different size tires?

 

I run 35x12.5 Toyo's with no wheel spacers. I also have stock Rock Warrior wheels and only see minor rubbing on the inner fender liners.

 

You have a lift or anything at all?

 

Yes, I do. I have the Bilstein 6112's up front with the clip/notch set at the 2" of lift, and Bilstein 5160's w/Deaver add-a-leaf in the rear for 1.5" of lift. I am running stock upper control arms. It all clears.

 

Your truck looks really good. nice job.

 

I had 35 12.5 18s & methods that slightly rubbed.
Flipped them for 35 12.5 17 RW wheels that seriously rub.
Going down to 285 75 17s.
Have icon 2.0 lift

 

"New to me" 2013...

 

Dang...that looks great. Making me wish I had gotten a Magnetic Gray Metallic Rock Warrior instead of white.

 

Thanks AZEric.... The PO did some tasteful mods IMO. This is the first time I've strayed from buying "all original" types. I was leaning toward a Gen 2.5 until I found this. Already has Morimoto headlights that look much better than stock. I'm thinking I'll add their fog lamps to match...

 

The fogs complete the front end transformation/ look and they are miles beyond original fogs in terms of output. I went with the yellow 4-Bangers and love them.

 

Tasteful indeed. He gave you the pro grill, headlights and looks like some suspension upgrades as well. You have a really nice rig as it sits now.

 

I have a similar lift (2.5") and went through the same decision process. I initially went with 295s without issues but went with Load Range E tires for durability. It was a big weight penalty that I felt in both gas mileage and braking (I did get aftermarket rotors). I wasn't really using it for any extreme off-road so went back to stock tires and much happier all around. Depends on what you want to do with the truck. I don't think it looks out of proportion with the lift, but you'll pay for those bigger tires in more than just tires.

 

I appreciate that. I will see how the stock look on it for now and go from there.

 

Any of you guys with a 3" lift have to do the carrier bearing drop kit ?

 

coachbuilder shackles come with a CB drop

did you lift the rear? or just front 3" to level?

 

Yes this is the lift for the rear

Toytec Progressive 3 Leaf

$190 Add-A-Leaf kit for 1999-2021 Toyota Tundra - 21.5" Short AAL Set with Isolator Pads and Square Bend U-Bolts

Add-A-Leaf kit with U-bolts. Provides approximately 1.5" of lift. Installed on top of your overload spring.

 

Do you have any pictures with the stock size

tires and the lift?

 

Technically it's a leveling kit. About 2.5" in front and a little over 1" in the back with new shackles and shock. It's a little older picture, but stance is the same.

 

As much as I love my mgm, the white rock warriors look tough as nails to me. Update your grill and add led head lights and your truck will look new and shiny again. The TRD pro grill insert and morimotos or sequoia conversion LED's does wonders for the front end look of our 2nd Gen trucks.

 

Yeah, I have been seriously considering it. Thanks for the recommendation.
I have been making small revisions to the truck here and there with newer Tundra parts from the later generation. However, my wife and I buckled down for the new year. Got on that Dave Ramsey diet, so I don't see the Tundra getting any new parts unless it needs it.

 

So bad ass mixing old school with new school

 

Just got the rims powder coated.

 

OHHHHH SNAPPPP!!!! That looks so good! Are the letters Powder Coated as well or did you hand paint those? Do you have a good set of center caps to match?

 

I think the guy powder coated the red also. I think I'm going to just paint the center caps black and the trd red.

 

What size tire?

 

35” KO2’s. Has a 2/1 Bilstein Lift

 

Got matching Morimoto fog lights installed. Their electrical connections left something to be desired, but otherwise seem like good quality.

 

How reliable are the Morimoto products?
