    Greetings ladies and gentlemen!

    I've got a Blazing Blue Pearl 2016 CM Limited that I bought brand new about a year and a half ago, and the mod bug has been lurking inside ever since. I've been looking at tonneau covers, lifts, wheel and tire options, headlights etc. as of late, which has led me here. I think I'm finally ready to start playing with it now that some of the newness has worn off a bit!

    IMG_3313.jpg


    She's bone stock with the exception of some in channel rain guards and window tint.

    For mods.. first up, I think I would like a mild lift.. 3 to 4 inch, with some 295/60/r20's and black/machined wheels.
    I've got plenty of homework to do, as I do not want to just use spacers, I'd rather do a coilover and retain as much of the factory angles and adjustability as possible, without cutting crossmembers or cutting any steel. (Plasic I'm ok with removing haha) It's my daily driver and I intend on keeping it as reliable as possible. Primarily it will be a "mall crawler" as some would say... But I live in Maine and it's winter most of the time, our roads are terrible, and I do take the truck up north on the logging roads. So I do need more fit and function over just the looks of driving a bad ass jacked up tundra!

    If anyone has and ideas, I am all ears! Otherwise I'll be lurking through the thousands of "will this lift work" posts!

    Looking forward to learning from you all!

    -Mark

    I see you like to head up North and check roads out? I am about 40 mins south of Rangeley and often drive across to Jackman using almost all dirt if you ever want to go for a ride.

    Welcome from PA! Maine is my favorite place to go...especially when it's to go on a moose hunt! (I've been drawn twice, and my daughter once). And yes, those logging roads are fun in a Tundra!

    Welcome. Big fan of BDS 4.5 lift. Fits 35s and rides great. I'm a wee bit bias tho. Also a little more money than some but you get what you pay for. Love the blue.

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Funny you should mention the ToyTec, I was just looking at the BOSS kit and related threads. It seems that this is an affordable option to what I would like. I want to keep everything bolt on, without permanent damage/modification to the vehicle just so when the day comes to trade it in for a newer Tundra, I want retain maximum value. Some dealers around here beat you up pretty bad on value of the vehicle if it is "modifed".

    I like the idea of direct bolt on coilovers and UCAs to get the amount of lift I want and keep everything aligned.

    Thanks!
