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

Decided on the 35" Wildpeak RT01's in load range C. Can't wait to mount these up!

They come set at 2" but after some discussions with folks here and researching other posts I decided to have them adjusted to 1.5". Every truck seems to be slightly different and honestly I was happy with mine from the factory once it was delivered but I had already purchased the struts and it turns out the place that installed the running boards also did suspension work and sold bed covers. So far I am very happy with it!

The tires are Wildpeak AT3 and the size is 275 60 R20

 

Thanks for the info and link, may go with those down the road after the OEM's are needing to be replaced. As of now I ordered the simple 1.75" leveling kit from RC to accommodate the 295 65 20's I plan to put on the stock wheels

 

Looks great! Where did you get the BAKFlip MX4? That's next on my list after I get the truck ceramic coated. I have the 6.5' bed though so I'm expecting to pay a little more.

 

These are Westin Outlaw steps. Perfect drop for 6” lift! Didn’t break the bank, either!

I didn’t get strip on windshield because I’m planning on tinting whole front window with 50%. I do not have the dash cam.

 

Thanks! We have Line-X shop around and I originally called them last week because I was looking for Go Rhino running boards in stock that I could see (I could not decide between RB20, RB30 Slim). As soon as I arrived I realized that it was the same shop a friend was telling me I should visit to get the bed cover. They also had Rough Country suspension components on the wall and they said they'd charge me $120/hr. for a 2 hour install so I had them order the BAKFlip and had both installed the next day.

 

A little heat, plastic bondo spreader, fishing line and denatured alcohol.

 

Much better. Chrome <Black

 

Nice, is that a black Letter Pack on the tailgate? I got a silver one. I am going to change the chrome handle and bumper inserts to black and make the "TUNDRA" pop

 

How long did it take for you to get this grill? All I've got is an email receipt and a survey.

EDIT: I just got my notification of shipping.

 

….same

 

Mine took a few months from Sparks. One thing to avoid is bundling the grille with any other part that isn't in stock.

If I had ordered my flares separately, I would have gotten my grille a lot quicker.

Keep in mind that the grille comes in a very large box so shipping options are pricy and limited.

 

Yep inserts.

 

That's a beautiful looking truck!

Right now I have a DiamondBack HD cover but I want to get an iKamper, so getting a smart cap seems like the way to go, that way I can access everything easier. Also, great job adding the racks on top and having them lined up nicely.

Does the window inside the smart cap open completely like the one on the back of the tundra?

I just downloaded your trucks picture to keep as a guide, I hope you don't mind (or sue me).

 

Went out to take photos of my new setup.

Trex Wheels T200 Forged Monoblock | 20X9 +18
Nitto Ridge Grappler | 295/60/20

 

W/ the new height...I need help getting my tent back up on top but it will have a tuffstuff alpine back on it eventually. The opening portion of the window on the smart cap is smaller than the rear window opening. I could see this being a deal breaker for som but for me it wasn't. I can take a photo for you if you want. The alignment of the racks was dumb luck. I haven't checked to see if it is perfect but it is pretty darn close.

 

Not a very exciting mod day but a good ab workout I guess. I rolled around under the truck and sprayed everything with CRC. Also saw a few enticing holes and crevices for the FF. I am tired, but glad it’s done. Wish I’d had done it to the Sequoia when it was new. It does help.

 

It’s worth it. Colorado is drier than the north east coast here, and if I don’t rust proof mine it’ll have rust after a year or 2. I bought the spray gun and wands, makes life easier for sure. Subsequent years are easy as I just touch things up.

 

^^^^^
Oh yeah and I filled up for the first time. Costco has two choices, and no 87. I guess I will do premium, I mean, it’s a third gen.

 

Gas prices are over double that up here, not factoring exchange rate but still. Canada has the worlds 3rd largest oil reserves.

 

The other thing I did today was just stare at a computer screen and contemplated whether I really need skid plates.

on the one hand, it’s just a piece of felt under there now.

On the other hand, everything is tucked up higher, and I don’t know if it’s worth the added weight. I am trying to keep my weight down because of towing.

if I do it, I was leaning towards raw aluminum RCI, the two piece, which is 48 lbs total.

and for the back I was leaning towards the TTunes aluminum plate which covers the cats. It is 18 lbs. so 66 lbs total. I’m not sure if it’s worth it. It would be just to avoid damage from highway debris or maybe deer going under.

There appears to be no half way option with just a little protection. 1/4” aluminum boulder slamming is the only thing I can find for the front. The TTtunes is 3/16.

 

Put on a set of trd pro take-offs. Absolutely love how it looks.

So… anybody looking for a set of trdor wheels

 

Had local dealer turn off fake engine noise and all five seatbelt chimes. Didn't even buy from them and they did it for free while I waited.

 

oooh! That looks soo good!

 

That’s amazing. The only free thing the local dealership has here is really bad coffee. They’ve refused to do anything like this for free over the past 15 years. Part of living in a college town I guess. They just don’t care because people keep coming in.

 

those prices.

 

What did you have to ask for to get 2” lift rear springs with the TRD lift kit?

 

Took a pretty good hit trail riding this weekend. On to rock sliders!

 

That's a good little ding you got there!

Are those the TRD aluminum ones from Toyota? Or did you install some sliders once you got your truck?

 

That's super encouraging for me...Lol.
