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

Went a little too ham on Baja Designs lighting hahaha

 

installed ( finally) trd pro hood scoops/plastics on the hood. Placed order on trd pro fender flares

 

Smart move.

 

I saw a 22 for sale with these hood pieces on it in Craigslist. I thought they put them on to make it look like it wasn't part of the recall by giving the hybrid look.

 

Anyone get any popping or more of a clunk while turning at lower speeds? I’ve been having this since I put my first lift on the truck and have since lowered the front end but still have the clunk. Just wondering if anyone else has this. It is not crazy and if it wasn’t for me spending so much money on this truck i would have probably paid no mind to it. 23 limited hybrid non trd axles if that matters. I do have a drop kit installed for the axles. Also anyone notice any wear on the lower half of the aluminum spindle/knuckle? That’s what made me lower my truck back down tbh. I can send pictures later. On top of the bad ride but than again I did install a rough country kit lol any help would be greatly appreciated

 

do you have the aluminum skid plate? A lot of guys have reported a little clunk from it

 

I do but I just installed the skid plate about a month ago and the noise started before installing my plate

 

I got a cut and clamp magnaflow and it’s pretty nice. Kinda loud but it has grown on me. I also cut out the mid pipe and did a dump in front of the rear axle

 

I had the same issue initially when I had leveling struts put on the front. The top bolts on one of the strut assemblies hadn't been fully tightened causing a clunk when hitting a speed bump, switching in reverse, or sometimes turning.

 

I have been considering this on my Limited as well, I think they look great! Do you notice any added wind noise?

 

I have a set of dobinsons on the front but they all seem good. I took it to a shop that had done multiple dobinson kits installed so I would think they installed them correctly but never know. I would agree with you but it was happening before installing my set of dobinsons is the only thing. Idk I feel like I should go get it checked out but just don’t wanna waste money truthfully because knowing a shop they will say they can replicate the noise and just charge me diagnostic fee

 

im going to take ur word and try installing a rubber bushing for my skid plate and see if that knocks it out because I did have a metal skid plate installed when I first started noticing the clunk. I appreciate you for responding

 

No added wind noise, I got lucky with mine though, it is extremely quiet inside compared to mine gen2.5 platinum. I was reading stories about noisy 3rd gens and was pleasantly surprised how quiet mine is. I own few Mercedes, Lexus and Porsche and it does great even compared to those vehicles.

I do like looks of those scoops from interior

 

Awesome, Good to hear, My limited is very quiet except for a rattle under the rear seat that developed at about 4,000 miles but the dealer is diagnosing it.

 

What light pattern did you end up going with on all of them?

 

Oh I love the Alpharex's. Had them on for almost a year now, they really are a head-turner!

 

Fog lights : SAE clear
Ditch lights : Driving combo clear
Grille light : Driving combo clear
Bumper light : Driving combo amber

 

got the alpharex luxx black set and love them ever since getting them installed. Get compliments almost daily

 

You sleep in your truck? Those lights would be tempting to sticky hands. I did all those in BD as well, other than ditch lights because I am afraid someone is gonna try to steal them and mess up the truck in the process.

 

Hahaha yea it’s definitely in my mind but I used the security hardware and red loctite on the ditch lights. Good luck to them. The other lights, I have cameras/security lights and the neighbors dog has her eyes on the truck too so I’ll wake up from the barking. My guns would love to meet someone outside messing about.

 

I don't think they did it for this purpose. Hybrids have their share of issues too. I would love to see trd pro non hybrid ( tundra or tacoma)

 

Hey yall, my brother in law just got a 2024 Tundra Limited (non hybrid, regular suspension, 4wd) I’ve been poking around online to see how everyone is leveling them… doesn’t appear that Bilstein has any shocks out for the 2024, looking at Eibach but really interested in what y’all recommend

PFA

 

I have the same cluck, I believe. It is the same on both sides. I have not made changes to my suspension. One of these days, I need to schedule an appointment with the dealer.

 

Tried to get the best angle of the poke. Installed 1" Spidertrax spacers, very happy with the stance now. Will be removing the EGR flares as I decided they look to "tall." Ordered the TRDPro flares to replace.

 

please let me know if they give you any answers. It has been honestly been starting to stress me out. I thought I may have messed something up with upgrading my suspension but hearing you have the same issue I don’t think it was my suspension
Do you have the standard black axles or the trd axles?

 

Standard. I have a 2023 4x4 Platinum Hybrid.

 

Ok I think it might be the short axles as we turn but that is just my theory which is probably incorrect lol I’m pissed that Toyota would make two different size axles for the same truck. Pretty damn annoying but makes sense when they sell a 4k plus lift for said truck

 

I like the lights.

Some things should never be written online though. Material things are replaceable.

 

Finally got around to putting a bed mat in. Black Armor for the 6.5 bed. Absolutely love it and it fits like a glove.

 

Thought you had to be Canadian to get those? Oregon, eh? What’s your address. Don’t ask questions.
