    Ok guys. I’m new to the forum and new to owning my Tundra in general.

    I’m a retired Navy Submarine Communications Chief and IT guy. So now I work as a contractor doing similar stuff. I travel all over the west coast to submarine bases and groom their comms and networks prior to them deploying. Anyway, I bought this truck site unseen from my hotel in Hawaii! Lol

    I live in Hampton, VA (close to Norfolk and Virginia Beach) but the truck was in Maryland. So for the day and a half I was in town over a month long of travel, I road tripped with my 16yo son to pick it up. Then he got to drive it for the week and a half until I finally got back.

    So, in the mean time, I went ham ordering all kinds of stuff.

    A NSV hood mount light bar from Headlight Revolution. A 42” bumper mount amber Diode Dynamics light bar also from Headlight Revolution. The 3 grill mount amber LEDs. And an entire interior LED kit from the same place. Along with the LED front headlight turn signals and 3rd brake light and cargo and license plate lights. As well as a set of the Morimoto LED sequential taillights. I’m actually having key fob issues after installing the cargo LEDs, but just got some EMI tape from Amazon today that I hope fixes that issue.

    Some OEM tailgate and bed side inlays and some red TOYOTA letters fro the front grill. But I’m not sold on the red TOYOTA letters. Not sure if they’re going to stay.

    I have a 2” front and back ReadyLift lift kit and Nitto Ridge Grappler 35x12.50R18’s that I actually plan to install tomorrow along with 2” Bora wheel spacers all on the factory TRD Pro wheels.

    What is that padding or decal around the cup holder? Or is that the finish on the new pros? I like it

    And today, I ordered a Kenwood DMX1057XR head unit along with the required install kit and Maestro to hook it all up and retain steering wheel controls as well as the built in Toyota settings adjustment capability. I’m also going to be replacing all of the speakers and factory amp with nicer speakers, a new subwoofer and box to replace the factory one. I will probably just run a single sub and separate amps for the component speakers as well as a dedicated amp for the sub. Also sound deadening on all the usual places as well. I will DEFINITELY need help in the speaker and stereo area. I just want 1 sub because that’s more than enough for me and I don’t want a full coverage box with 2 subs because I want to keep my jack in the factory location. I know that there are plenty of posts on speakers and stereo stuff, but that can be inundating to search through for specific year and price range differences. So I plan on asking so that those of you who have been on here for a while and seen years worth of posts can help steer me to appropriate existing posts.

    Nope, that’s a kit I got off of Amazon. Honestly, it’s foam, so not as bad for slipping as just the factory plastic, but still lets stuff slide around a little. They are basically stickers, so they adhere in place. And are fairly thick. I’d say about 1/4 inch.

    I’m over the worst part of the lift kit installation. I got a late start. But I’ll finish it tomorrow and put the spacers on and load up the tires in the bed and take them to get the tires swapped over and an alignment done and post the pics of how it looks.

    Then I get to figure out where I’m going to be rubbing and address that part.

    I also recruited my 16yo and 22yo who’s in town for the holiday helping!! Their backs can take a lot more than mine!!

    I agree with you. I spent 22 years on submarines and never felt claustrophobic once. But around too many people I feel that way every time. I’m old and grumpy the older I get. But that’s mostly because no one seems to have common courtesy anymore.

    But when I retired from the Navy, the only thing I’m qualified to do and still make good money is civilian contractor work doing the same types of things. So no, this is not my favorite place to be, by far, but it will probably be home for me for at least the rest of my working years.

    I got everything done on the front except for getting the skid plate back on and it started raining. Plus I was missing the nuts for the new skid plate hardware so I had to make a run to grab it. This thing is going to look stupid I guess, until Tuesday when places open back up for me to be able to get the tires mounted and balanced and the alignment done. But then I go out of town on a work trip. So it’s going to be a couple of weeks before I’ll get a chance to address and fix any rubbing issues.

    Finished the front and put it back together with the 2” Bora spacers. Honestly, you can barely even notice much of a visual difference at all with those spacers.

    Anyway, got the blocks in the back and started the mods to the Fox Shocks but ran out of daylight. I have maybe 1.5 hours left that I’ll finish up tomorrow.

    Update 1 of 2. Last night at midnight when I first put it on, and then now. Looking good and almost done. Time to make coleslaw and other sides.

    I’m about to start working. I just wanted to show the rear blocks and what the Bora spacers look like and how much they push the wheels out with factory size tires. When you look at the factory front mud flap thing you can tell that the wheel/tire is no longer centered in it. But from the side it doesn’t look like it’s stuck out significantly more than factory. Another thing to consider if you’re thinking about doing this is that the factory +60 offset that makes the wheels so tucked is mostly that way to help increase fuel efficiency and gas mileage by pulling them in and under. Pushing them out definitely looks better in my opinion, but I would guess would definitely affect gas mileage even without putting big 35” tires on.

    Ok, and the lift got finished early this morning too before dinner. The rear was super easy.

    If you have a newer TRD Pro with Fox shocks, vice the older ones with Bilstein, do what I’m about to tell you, NOT what the instructions say or the videos show. So here are some before and after on the part that you have to cut off of the stem. However, even though you’re going to cut/grind down to right before the first threads start, when you screw the extender on there will still be a small gap, but that’s a good thing, you need it! Don’t worry, after measuring, it’s fully down and seated and more than strong enough. But there’s also a part in the instructions that tells you to drill out the top of the metal washer on the top of the shock boot. Do NOT do this. If you do it will NOT stay where it’s supposed to. Instead, just cut/grind the tip, put the boot on in the factory place and location and put some red loctite on the threads of the actual shock itself and and screw the extender down. Because of the gap it allows the metal spacer inside of the shock boot stay in the factory location and still have the extender fully seated. There are also 2 tiny set screws that you can thread in too since they’re there, but they’re pretty much useless after putting the red loctite on. And that’s it. You’re done with the shocks. Then you just put it back in the same way it came out. Obviously after putting the 2” lift blocks in, in accordance with the instructions.

    Showing the spacer installation with red loctite. There’s also a really bad, after, pic. It’s hard to see because of the shadowing. I’ll try to get and post some better ones tomorrow. Anyway, you need to put the top bolt on the shocks first. But then the lower part of the shock will be lower than the bolt holes. And good luck just hand compressing the shock to get it in. Not going to happen. I found a pretty decent sized socket and put it on the pad of the jack and jacked it up into place and then got the bolt in.
