    Tnx, it does, it sounds amazing. Very clean, loud enough. On the factory head unit around 40 volume it almost begins to get too loud for me. If I want to get crazy I can still go to 50 without distortion. Above that u can hear you're pushing it a bit. Pulling in my garage I got to turn it down to the teens. I feel for the price it's almost a must have. Not like I'm a 18 yr old kid either, at almost 40, it's exactly what I wanted. Looks oem, sounds amazing, and the price was phenomenal. Even the install place you can tell was very impressed by it.

    I almost forgot, see i listen to everything from country to rap and everything in between. Good music is good music. On my install pics I forgot about this little turn knob under the driver side dash. While I'm driving it allows me to simply adjust the base with a simple turn of the knob to account for what I'm listening to get the best sound.

    Just pulled trigger on some bling. To justify the purchase of an ajt injection fob to meet my requirement that the mod must not only look good but must also serve a purchase, I keep telling myself it's built better and stronger with a less likely chance to break or get lost lol.

    Should have ordered today thru Fri, save a little, 20% off. I've wanted 1 since 1st saw, this sale gave me the reason. Maybe you can contact Adam Truckey and see if he can help? He's very responsive to email.

    Hertz in doors front n back, JL 10's behind rear seat. I love it. I can see how someone who's looking to shake the ground with music may want more. But for me it's perfect. Loud but not obnoxious imo.

    6, which at 1st was 8-10 hrs. I was ready to walk so I showed them JRT's IM to me which explained how easy the install was. When he saw that another guy walked outside to see all I had. It was then after the message and talking another look knowing I was going to walk unless he came close to the 350-450 James said it should cost. I figured 6 was close enough to 450 and took into account the cost of living differences between GA and NJ.

    The place I went to does alot of Jeeps. They liked the package and install so much that they said the next time they get a tundra install they would maybe get some of their stuff from him. I think they thought it was going to be tougher. Once they did it and realized it was exactly what he said and every single thing needed for install was included.

    Yeah that hurt more than parts. I really think they thought it was going to be much harder than was. They said if it was less than 6 hrs they'd charge me less, but I knew going in that was not going to happen.

    Ive been very busy doing thibgs to the truck lately so it's time to add to my build thread and attempt to catch up a little each day.

    So I had a couple issues with my swingbox breaking, but in all honesty, probably from going off-road with too much heavy shit in it. I was keeping tools, hitches, recovery gear. It's not built bad just not built to obviously exceed it's weight limit. So I was thinking I'd split up the load with a 2nd on passenger side.

    Since I'm always throwing things in near tailgate I didn't want to lose the ability to tie down on both sides in bed toward rear. So I 2nd guessed myself and sold the 2nd box I got. Instead I got a 8 inch cross bin from Diamondback. It sits on top of the factory bed rails between them and DB HD cover.
    I will say both Undercover and Diamondback have been absolutely awesome to work with. They both have gone above and beyond in exceeding my expectations for customer service. I don't want to get into the exact specifics of what both companies have done for me, but lets just say the both stand behind their products and will do just about abything you ask for to make sure their customers are satisfied. Anyone contemplating doing biz with either just know before you do that they will take care of you if needed.

    So here's the 8 inch cross bin I got from Diamondback. It came in no time packaged nicely.
    20180505_124339.jpg
    I love the fact that it's very easily moveable and removable. So for right now I have it toward cab like so. If I wanted I could just slide toward tailgate or pull it out if I needed in minutes.
    20180505_133042.jpg 20180505_133222.jpg
    You do have the option of locking it in if you wanted to screw in a sheet metal screw. However, I've found it hardly doesn't move at all and I don't want to lose the ability to move toward rear of truck orf take out all together if I needed that space. It's like having a very easily removable built in bed tool box. They also sell a deeper 12 inch that gets secured toward cab.

    For now I like the location and I'm using it to store heavier tools, hitches, and recovery gear. I put the tools I use on a more regular basis on the driver side release handle of the bed cover. As you can see in the pics it's got 1 huge section in middle, and 1 on each side smaller sections. It's in these smaller sections I put heavy things that I use more regularly and the heavier and bigger things I don't use as much or need as offer in the bigger middle section. Here's just a taste of how much room there is. On far side tri ball hitch. On near 3 ratchet sets and some other heavy tools. In middle a recovery bag that has heavy shit like 12 ft of steel chain, d rings, and other recovery tools in bag. Jumper cables are also in middle section of pic. You can see just how much extra room there is for stuff I'll be adding.
    20180505_133021.jpg

    I think the 8 inch cross bin is a great addition and fits my needs perfectly. Gotta love the flexibility of positioning and amount of stuff you can fit in it offers. It's built pretty solid and I can attest to having a pretty solid amount of weight in it already with a whole bunch more space to add stuff if I wish. I'm sure i will.

    Very happy with the function, flexibility, combination, and customer service of both the swing case and DB cross bin. Between them a covercraft adjustable cargo bar and cargo net I have the ability to secure any and every different type of cargo and remove everything within seconds if I need more or a certain area of bed space. Then if the type of cargo don't fit in the bed the cover can always hold around 1400 pounds on top. I'd say I'm prepared and capable to very essily secure any type of cargo in the bed. If too big can go on top. If too big for that then the tandem trailer comes out. Very happy with my bed setup.

    So by now I've removed each flare and every rivet to rattle can the rivets black a month or 2 ago. Although it looked great and was holding up pretty good, there were a couple spots that my OCD would not allow me to look past the miniscule amount of chrome showing on a couple. So yeah I'd say for about 4 of the 32 rivets not being absolutely perfect, my perfectionism got the best of me so I decided to powder coat them.

    I came to this decision because they weren't going to get any better over time, just the opposite. I think I'm close to coating my truck but not just yet so the automated washes would continue to beat them up, plus I wanted them to be perfect before I coated the truck. So now they are.
    20180505_151826.jpg The washers and rivets pc'd in matte black. Only left the threads taped to leave bare. It costed me $100 to have a local shop pc them. But for the quality and peace of mind I feel it was a small price to pay. Again, I'm very anal and not the average Joe when it comes to stuff like this. Driving by no one would notice but to me there's a HUGE difference in the quality and appearance. Since it goes on so much thicker even tightening with the torque star bit on face and ratchet in rear did not scratch the pc cranking down on the nylon nuts. I'm so much more confident these will last forever and I'm hoping I'll never have to remove and install another rivet for as long as I own this truck. Hoping that's a very long time.
    20180505_155501.jpg
    I think the truck looks great with them like this. It's a little more of a subdued look, not as blingy. There's something about the chrome rivets that took away from the look. I love the protection the flares offer the skimpy layer of paint toyota puts on these. I felt the chrome rivet looked kinda cheap and at times took away from the badass look of the truck. I didn't want to remove the protection but also wasnt prepared to spend a ton of money on a wide body kit plus have to then change wheels ect. I think this checks off the box keeping the functional protection of the flares and at same time looks great and different from everyone else's chrome rivets.

    Did a bunch today. Went from this little cheap local auto parts store switch


    To this. An oem looking new design from air on board made to look like our light blue factory switches. The bottoms stay illuminated just like factory when off and the top portion of the button will also illuminate when on like so


    Same switch installed for rear led pods just installed today.


    Wiring under hood

    Wiring under bumper with ability to connect and disconnects quickly here.


    Might be time for s pod soon. I literally only have 1 more blank switch under my middle dash between the usb and power outlets here.
    With train horns on the way once that blank switch is filled with another like the led light bar and rear lights switches I put in today with a train horn momentary new design switch under the temp dials there I'm all out on blanks. Something tells me a s pod is in my near future.

    So the s8 in front amber backlight is hooked to my drl. The push switch turns on its blinding clear white light. The 2 led pods I installed today to the rear lights switch seen above in my hitchworks trailer hitch gives me the ability to turn them on anytime. I also have them hooked up to turn on without the switch when in reverse like so.


    The led pods are awesome quality from KC and are supplied from hitchworks as part of their tow hitch package. It's a step, drop hitch, bumper protection and provides lighting. All 4 things I needed so figured I'd kill 3 birds in 1 package. Ill get into greater detail on my build thread eventually on the hitchworks product when I can put it through all the tests in the near future. But so far I love it and couldn't be happier as of now with the way it all turned out.
    The light output is very very impressive

    Damn not to brag, but just when I don't think my truck can get any better, it does.

    I also just pulled the trigger on a G2 caliper paint kit in red and once that's done I'll be getting my truck artic coated next month. I finally have my truck exactly the way I want it and at the very least my outside mods minus the train horns on the way are completed to where I can have everything sprayed in artic coating to protect it.

    With the exception of doing some other alterations and additions to the interior I'm very happy with the way my truck sits now. I'm not going to lie and say I'm done, we all know that's just not true, but for now, I'm pretty good with everything. I'll maybe do a retro 1 day, some 35s and rims, sliders, bed slide, under hood, and interior things in the future I would like to do. But for the most part, I'm pretty content and could live even if I never did another thing to it at this point.

    Not a job for faint of heart. Just jacking my truck up was pia. My truck got so much flex in suspension, I had to almost put it thru roof of my garage to get tires off the ground.
    Don't believe me

    So I ended up removing all my wheels and painting all my calipers with g2 in red. I wanted to paint them to protect them and keep them from rusting and looking shitty over time. I really struggled with color choice. I almost went with black or grey, but at the end I figured if i was going to go thru all this work i might as well make it noticeable and pop a bit. I'm hoping the red goues good with shocks, sway bars, tow hooks,winch fairlead, ect. I'm just hoping when I get a chance to really look at it good in light tomorrow it looks great and not too much.

    Getting them off was easy but getting em back on by myself was tough and tiring. Maybe it was the fact I started this around 5pm and didn't finish the 3 coats on every caliper until 3am. That plus had to wait 2 hrs to dry before putting wheels back on. So yeah 5pm to 5am the next day. All I got to say is this paint better hold up for the life of truck. Will be able to get some better pics tomorrow after I let paint cure for 24hrs.

    Couple more pics showing off them pretty red calipers.

    I was a bit nervous that the red would stick out too much and be over the top. But it actually looks great and not the case. It blends perfectly with the red rear sway and front red shocks, that plus my red d rings and factor 55 winch hook it goes perfect imo. Well worth the time 12 hrs and effort. Plus now they better protected from the elements.

    I also have an appointment set up mid/end month to get the truck professionally coated. APC auto polishing center in waldwick, will be doing a full paint correction and coating the truck with artic coat. I spoke at great length with the owner Anthony, great guy, gets tons of phenomenal reviews, both him and his family owned business, and finally decided to go this route.

    I got a great deal on it, I feel I can trust him to leave my baby in his possession to work his magic, and they'll even be providing me with a loaner as part of the deal.

    In the meantime, I've been doing a ton of research while amassing products and tools to take the leap to start giving my truck baths and details myself. Even if the coating did nothing else, which it does, it will cut the time of washing in half for me which is huge.

    I already got a bunch of cleaning products like leatherique, wax addict tyre feeder, aerospace 303, and some c.g products, plus I just got some c.g honeydew foam soap to go along with the cheapo falsmov foam cannon, ego battery cordless electric blower, and a small 1600 psi ryobi pressure washer. I got this 1 since it's vwry small, compact, easy to move and store, and safe for paint.

    Oh yeah, pulled the trigger too on the tufskinz middle console, tray, cupholder,, package thing in black/red. Will update pics when I get and install. I think it'll go good with the black/red interior of my truck.

    Changed the cabin air filter, was getting a bit of musty smell in cab, the filter itself wasn't too dirty but figured at 26k it was time. The job itself was easy and only took 10 min. Do notice an improved in cab smell since changing.

    Tnx Eric. Price wise wasn't too bad. Got thru tirerack.com it was the g2 caliper paint package. Comes with all u need. Everything from brake cleaner spray, to the brush, to the stir stick, and paint plus mix agent. It don't go on bad, but me being anal, I put on 3 coats, and still had more paint left. It don't look like a lot in can but there's plenty.

    The hardest part I found was with my pro suspension and the sag was jacking it up high enough to get the tires to lift. If I had to do over I would've lifted 1 side at a time. That plus getting my big ass 295 heavy nitto RG tires to line up back on the studs by myself with limited space in my garage. The labor is the hard part. Heavy tire lifting and time consuming with much attention to detail applying paint by brush. The kit itself was only $35. It gets great reviews and I'd be willing to concur. Others have gone with cheaper kits and paint but with mixed reviews.

    I'd say go for it. Just give yourself plenty of time to complete the project without needing to rush. It's 2 hrs before the tires can be put back and 24 before you can drive. I love the look of them and how it all turned out.
