Silver Sky Metallic picture thread

Do you pull that camper with that truck and if so any pulling issues going with the larger wheel/tire setup?

 

Yup I do. I have no issues I could complain about. It’s generally an enjoyable ride everywhere I pull it. Aside from the lackluster on paper payload rating I’m never left wanting. It gets 8-10 mpg and will pull any hill at whatever speed I choose with 35s, stock gears, NAPA adaptive one performance brakes and a supercharger.

 

Nice. I live in PA as well and have a similar size camper but not a supercharger. Nice setup, thanks for sharing.

 

Upgraded to Bilstein 6112s, control arms, Method 315s and Nitto Ridge Grapplers.

Should I paint match the mirror and door handles or leave it?

 

I am leaning toward black handles and mirror, and some fender flares while you are it!!

 

I wouldn't say I like silver. Good looking truck tho. New to this forum, been an ih8mud guy forever.

 

Anyone use the pre-painted grills from Ebay? Been noticing them lately and wondering how fitment and color match was.

 

I like the black mirror/handle look but maybe I’m just biased.

Don’t mind the dented fender, my tire had just fell off and caused the damage.

 

Sorry to hear about the tire, thinking I might torque my lugs tonight.

I also like the black mirror and door handles. Are they oem or aftermarket? Links??

 

OEM, my truck is the SR5 base crewmax.

Yeah damn shop over/under torqued the lugs and it fell off. Just got it back but I don’t think they aligned it. Damn thing is squealing down the road and wheel is crooked…

 

What grill is that? Oem ?

 

What grill is that? oem? Do you have a part number?

 

My truck is a 2021 Platinum so the grill is the OEM. I believe the TRD pro and Platinum have the same look. You can get the same or similar grill at sparksparts.com.

 

This is my new to me 2014 SR5 I just picked up Saturday, mods to start so far , ordered a trifold tonneau, replaced all interior bulbs with leds including license plate and cargo lights , ordered led headlight bulbs ,fog bulbs ,reverse leds , and leather seat covers.
It looks like it has the platinum grill ? I’d like to replace it with a black honeycomb w chrome surround , I’d like some new rims too , maybe the AGP black honeycomb ones . Does any one have the Oem part number for the black honeycomb grill with chrome surround and the same badge? What other mods should I do ? It has RC coilovers and rear shocks .

 

Congrats! Welcome to the SSM club!

 

Nice!! Since you're getting the tonneau, I REALLY like having the full Bedrug.

Cushy to crawl around on, and things slide easily when you want them to, but stay put when you don't.





Add some power and lights in the bed and you're dialed!

 

Did some paint correction

 

Oh! I like those!! Late to the party, but I am slowly building a perfect truck!
Going to replace the factory 20” wheels with 18’s when the toyos are done! Thanks for sharing, took me a while to get through 80 pages on this thread!!

 

Love it! That is a sweet looking truck!!
