    Good video, thank you! That might be a bit too much effort to just get the 4x4 knob out and replaced so I think I'll just take the ol' sawzall and make the notch on the right side of it larger. :sawzall:

    My only reservation with airbags is that I do some low range wheeling with my tundra, and I’m concerned that airbags will reduce suspension articulation. Does anyone have experience with this that would like to weigh in?

    Combined with Daystar cradles no downward articulation is lost.

    Airbags will not hinder you offroad at all. Seriously so far no down side and all upside. You will not regret adding them to your rig.

    Installed the PIAA Superior Bass Horn.

    0DB1CE85-EA50-48A3-9F7B-C7D5CA9F0C40.jpg

    I thought I’d have to cut and splice some wiring but it’s as plug and play as you can get. The OEM plug is just a spade connector encased in plastic so that goes directly onto the PIAA horn. The OEM horn is grounded by the mounting bolt so I just went with that.

    Overall it seems roughly equal in volume to the stock horn but has a little deeper tone. I thought it would be louder tbh, not sure if I’d spend $50 on this all over again. Air Horns are around this price and should give alot more bang for the buck, although their install is trickier with the need for a relay and such.

    Thanks for the post... I was considering this upgrade but going to put it at the bottom of the mod list. I would have expected loudness and tone changes.

    I went with the Firestone airbags. They have worked great for me so far pulling my jeep or the quads

    How close are you to the front on the front fender well....I am going to 60’s from 55’ and those are about 3/4” more in diameter than what I am running....I have a little over 2” front lift so I should be good but just wondering where you are sitting with 65’s? This is where I’m sitting at full crank with 285/55/20, going to 275/60/20.

    A little chrome delete from AJT and the Tundra Vinyl. Also added the sill protectors, but don't have a picture.

    Installed these covers, it’s something I believe should have come with the truck. They attach with double sided tape.

    Nice. Do you have a picture from the front, maybe a little further away? the current pic is perfect for showing texture though.

    It is textured, goes on very easily but I would recommend two people that double sided tape is very strong. I like the way it make the front end look. I think it would look even better with the hood scoop.

    Sweet! Thank you. That think is totally stealth on your paint job. Looks really nice... Now I just have to imagine it on Cavalry Blue.:burp:

    I got the idea from @Calidude7. It’s called AVS Aeroskin II Hood Protector.
