    Took the leap and bought my first tundra (2020 SR5 Off-Road) a couple months ago. Been lurking for several months before my purchase so I decided to join in. Thanks for the add.

    So far I have done a few mods.
    -console safe added at the dealer
    -interior and exterior LED bulbs
    -Toytec/Eibach 2.5” coilover lift in front, 1.5” block in the rear.

    I plan to put TRD LED headlights here in the coming months, new wheels are tires when I am due for tires, after market side steps and eventually a bed cover.

    All stock the day I bought it:

    After I installed the lift:

    I installed my UCA’s this evening with my favorite helper. It was much easier than I anticipated. Now I need to get an alignment done.

    Also ordered TRD PRO LED headlights with black housing today from Roman. Just waiting to hear back from the guy making the plug and play conversion harnesses to get those ordered. I think it’s all coming along nicely.

    Thanks for checking it out.

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the open arms welcoming into the forum.

    Here’s a couple more mods I’ve done since last update.

    I replaced my stock halogen headlights with black housing TRD Pro LED’s.
    upload_2020-6-8_6-48-46.jpg
    upload_2020-6-8_6-49-0.jpg

    Also installed a wireless charger to the bottom side of my console tray. (tried posting a video but not sure how to do it)

    Anyways, thanks for looking.

    How dose the Eibach coilovers ride? I just found them today and for the price they seem like a great buy.
    Oh and welcome from Humble.

    Hey man, sorry i'm jut now seeing this and responding. I really like the rode so far but have noticed some squeaking after a couple thousand miles on them now. All that said, I don't know that its the Eibach coilovers but it's something that I have replaced...

    Today I put on 20x9 Vission Rockers and 35x12.5x20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. The wheels are a +12 offset and do rub a little bit. I am having a BMC done tomorrow morning to free up all the rubbing.
