    Howdy guys! Been checking in on this site for a while now, and finally have decided to speak.

    I had a '15 sr5 crewmax for a couple years and just traded it in on a 2017 1794 edition crewmax. I missed my bells and whistles of my old GMC. Im in the desert, Yuma, AZ, so I have made my Tundra desert ready. Started by lifting her up 7 inches with a procomp suspension lift, and added Fox 2.5 coilovers with rezzies, for the back, I went with a 7" lift dever pack with Fox bypass shocks as well. I added the Nitro 4.88 gear kit so better push the 35" Toyo RTs. Since I was in there, I threw in a Detroit Autolocker. Also had a Dirty deeds cat back exhaust and a TRD intake. I had all this on the '15 Tundra, and had them switch the suspension and axles to the "17. As far as the lift, well they just installed a new one. but just swapped axles and suspension around for the rest.

    Now for the parts in waiting. . .
    midtravel upper and lower arms on the front, and DSCs to the Fox 2.5s, since I was revalving them anyway.
    I just received my Magnusson supercharger, Its like a kid in a candy store right now...
    but I am waiting for my BAM dirty deeds 8" Standard cat back exhaust to come.

    I changed out all the lights for HID, both the headlights and the fogs, but am deciding whether to get a Bull Guard for the bumper for a light bar.

    My local Toyota dealership is gonna install the supercharger. They have done 6 kits this year, and so, thankfully, I have someone with some experience with it. Gotta get it ready for the upcoming dune season and the drags! lol

    But there is some sad news. . . I hqave only had the new tundra for about 2 months, and was loading it up to go out of town labor day weekend. I was parallel parked infront of my house and left the door open to continue to load up. Some douche in a powerstroke came by and tried to take my door off. Did you all know a new tundra door is 2400 bucks. Anyway my baby is at the doctor this week getting fixed up. Hence why the SC isnt in the truck yet. LOL

    I have been dreaming about doing it for years and finally hit a place in life to pull some triggers. But it has been a couple year progression. There are so many things we can do to upgrade these trucks .
