csuviper's 2019 Toyota Tundra TRD Sport Build

I was planning on it

 

It’s a hole in the bed. Just do it and don’t think about it.

 

Ridiculously awesome!!!

I don’t have duals but if TRD pro dual then the sway bar is accounted for

 

It is a lot of money and probably will only do it this once since it’s a new truck. I was very surprised how scratched up it was right from the dealership. The polishing process took out all of the scratches, swirls and blemishes. The coating itself does keep the outside of the truck cleaner and reduces the swirls and scratches when washing each time. Typically in winter my truck looks white from all the mag chloride. It does still stick to the side of the truck now but much much less. The really cool thing about getting it done at Adams Polishes is that they make their own products and loaded me up with about $200-300 worth of product for free to help preserve the coating. I did get a deal but they said pricing is typically around $1200ish. They said it should last 180 washes or 1-3 years. They did say I could extend that by 5 years or so if I put on their spare on ceramic coating over the top every 6 months to a year.

 

I’m doing all the car washes myself. Trying hard to keep the swirls out. Bought a power washer with the Adams foam cannon. I do a good initial wash down to get the dirt and grit off then foam. I use the two bucket method to not spread any of the grim around. Add the ceramic boost every other wash and now will add the spray on ceramic coat every 6 months or so.

 

Kinda funny cause I used to wash my 2012 at an auto car wash only like 2-4 times per year.

 

New
Yep I have the 2019 with LEDs. They are very nice.

 

Na just a few little holes in the bed. No big deal.

 

First door ding

 

So when i swapped by Radflo coilovers from my 2012 to my 2019 I discovered that a cap on the bottom of the shock body had unscrewed itself and was at the bottom of the shaft. I cleaned it up and screwed it on and didnt think much of it. Well i think dirt got up into the coilover because i started having issues with the shock. Decided to go ahead and get them rebuilt.

Found out that Toytec Lifts is training their shop employees on how to rebuild all of the rebuildable coilovers that they sell. Guess they all have experience with rebuilds so its just a refresher. Perfect timing. I was able to get some scratch and dent coilover spacers from them for my stock coilovers and swap them out during the rebuild. They said the total should be around $200 unless there are broken parts outside of the wear items.

 

Made some nice purchases lately. Will have to get them installed when they arrive.
