    Hey Guys!

    We are in the middle of building our Tundra, and we want to know what you think some must have mods? We are already sporting our specialty bed rack, along with Baja Designs lighting and ActionTrax. :help:

    Nice! Love your products!

    What do you plan on using the truck for? All too many of us are going to immediately start trying to chat about suspension upgrades and try to get that truck some more clearance.

    After that it would be some protection, with rock sliders being probably the most important, followed by skids...

    of course truly depends on what you plan on using the truck for :thumbsup:

    :mudding:

    1. Chrome gotta go.
    2. Window tint (if you haven’t already).
    3. LED interior lights.

    You’ve already done a good job on wheels/tires. Bottom line it’s your truck. You do you. Have fun!

    We do a lot of camping, over landing, and off-roading.

    Did you give yourself the forum discount on the Baja Designs? Ha! Looks good already but a mild lift couldn't hurt for more clearance.

    Dometic refer would be nice for overlanding. They are a vendor here too and have a forum discount.

    If you’re looking for strictly functional mods, a dual battery set-up with an inverter to power various devices useful for camping/over landing.

    Curse you Perry the Platypus!
    I always go window tint, exhaust, air filter, and nerf bars. Then play around with the stereo. I don't off-road though...

    I plan on looking into the on board compressor. Which do you recommend? I've heard ARB is a good one.

    I am looking at getting an RCI bedrack. I have a soft topper, though, and will need some modifications they are unwilling to do, unfortunately. I am going to head up to their shop, possibly today, to see what can be done about that. I think their rack is the bast looking one around.
