Yeah, and they’re cheaper than most other options like tuffskinz. They’re just rubber in the bottom of the cup holder... nothing crazy. They have different color trim depending on your tastes - the red accents the red in my interior already.
The door handle inserts I’ll eventually replace with the leather ones made by a member on here.

 

Yes, the tufskinz are foam, and they do have a cover for that area and the console lid as well.

I bought the tufskinz tailgate and bed badge inserts and am very happy with the quality.

Put my RB20's on last night

 

I have mine waiting to install. Yours look nice and tucked in compared to others. Did you do anything different from the installation instructions?

 

I pulled the mounting brackets that go to the truck all the way out that way I could push the boards in a little bit more closer. When your under there you'll see what I'm talking about. Loosely thread the bolts in and then pull the bracket away from truck.

 

Love those RW wheels!!

 

Love your truck. I think that AG needs some chrome to contrast. That looks better than the Pros IMO.

.

What did he do? Drive over a speed bump?

 

Thanks for the advice. Should have them installed soon and will post some pictures.

 

Thanks man! I was gonna dechrome it, but it has grown on me, and at this point I’d rather spend my money on functional mods. Trans cooler and air compressor install are next.

There is one bit of chrome I MUST delete—the dang vent rings. Those things are blinding when they catch the sun.

 

Interior Chrome is a bad thing, but on the outside some trucks can pull it off.

 

Hey do you have a link for the door inserts you mentioned I'm missing a couple of mine from the factory

Mounted my Christmas gift from the family today. Hope to never use it but got it ready if I do.

 

Can confirm. Former bolt/torque technician here. Aerokroil is the gold standard liquid penetrant.

 

Finally got around to a (long overdue) engine bay cleaning.

 

Last weekend I installed a Dobinson snorkel and Rago dash plate.

 

That is a kick ass set-up! (slow golf clap)

 

That looks nice. Just damp cloth?

 

I made an Orca sticker for the tailgate.
Not everyone’s thing, I’m sure...but I like Jaws and wanted something unique.

so I paused the scene of the boat at night, took a photo, traced it, and made a decal. It even has silhouettes of the characters.

 

Looking good!!

 

I used Gunk Foamy Engine Cleaner and agitated a bit with my tire brushes, then did a light rinsing. Air dried with my leaf blower, then I used 303 protectant for the various plastics and hoses. Worked pretty well, but if I had to do it again I wouldn’t use the Gunk stuff — it foams nicely, but it gets everywhere and dries too quickly in my opinion. Probably better to go with another degreaser that you can dilute in a regular spray bottle. I found a lot of good info / tips in this Detail Geek video:

Finally got confirmation that my wheels are in port here on Maui. Decided to go ahead and install my 6112/5160 setup with JBA Offroad UCAs and TOYTEC Shackles. Did a brake line relocation, diff drop and Sway bar relocation as well. Front took about 6 hours on day 1, rear took about 2.5 hours on day 2. All hand-tools and lots of loud obscenities but very happy with how it sits.

Not going to post pics until my wheels/tires are on because Im running the bone stocks until then... Looks ridiculous. Friday should be the day!

 

Nice man! I have the same suspension minus the JBA UCA's. The first time I did suspension on my previous Tundra, I invented new combinations of swear words. This last time, I bought a pneumatic impact wrench and it made the project almost enjoyable! Can't wait to see the truck with wheels and tires!

 

Going to be doing the same setup install once my 6112 Black Friday purchase ships from Wheelers. (Maybe early January, but not betting on it). The impact gun is a great bit of advise that I was already thinking about. Any recommendations for a somewhat good but not stupid expensive air impact gun from the community?
