I Love My Bad@$$ B!tch - The Built Story w/pictures

Nice rig!

 

I went with the Smittybilt Comp X20. For various reasons, but ultimately came down to cost comparison to the Warn. If you scroll back through the pics you can see how the winch and controls are mounted. With the design of the ADD bumper you can access everything from the sides.

 

Does anyone know if I need to lift my truck to install 20 inch fuel rims? I don't want them to rub or anything. Mine is a stock height TRD off road tundra. Sorry if this is thread jacking. Asked Ina different forum but no reply.

 

Its not so much about the rims as it is the offset of the rim and the tire size. Once you havre that information we could be better suited to help you answer your question.

 

So its been a bit since ive posted here as i havent really done much to the truck.

Well, after awhile, i realized that Bilstein standard springs werent enough to handle all my extra weight. So after some time and monetary recover, i pulled the trigger on a better setup. Some of my new suspension components have arrived. Still waiting on custom Alcans to ship and arrive. Then ill just need a weekend off and a friend or 2 to help drink beer and install.

 

Daaayaam! Thinking about upgrading from bilstein myself. I’m between king or ads since mcm is nearby

 

My main reason is, i needed a beefier spring, went with 700s, I chose King, based on reputation and linear valving. Bilsteins being digressive, i dont do enough high speed, unless its on the highway.

 

Gotcha! Love the build

Planing on taking off your front sway now that you got 700 lbs springs?

 

Its a possibility, havent thought about it that much yet. When i get the new rear leafs, i might take off the rear to see how it does.

 

SWEEEET!!!! cant wait to see it finished.

 

Was hoping youd be coming over to help

 

I'm not doing much right now. This whole lockdown sucks. What day you talking about?

 

Not sure, i dont get anytime off from this crap. Itll be on a weekend

 

let me know. It give me a chance to get out of the house. Unless they impose a martial law

 

Nice build post @Larmand

 

Thanks

 

Truck looks great!

 

Thanks there have been a few changes recently that i havent gotten around to updating yet.

 

Nice. What are your latest mods?

 

Recieved my Alcan leaf springs and mounted those and my Kings.

 

awesome looking ride!!

 

Dude. That is a thing of beauty! Love the truck so far. I fell in love with the cement color when they first came out with. I just picked up my "new" Tundra about 6 weeks ago and ended up with the Sunset Mica color as I couldn't find a cement in my price range. There is ton of stuff on yours that I want to do to mine. Keep up the solid build!
