    This set up looks perfect. Exactly what the lift/stance we're looking for our new Tundra.

    Nothing yet, but headed that way!!!!
    WOW, I love the truck, what bed cover do you have and bars on top? also, what leveling did you do and tire size. I have a 2019 TRD sport and just want it to look a little tougher like yours, but trying to keep it simple and clean.

    So sorry for the late reply. For some reason I'm not always getting notified when someone quotes me or posts a reply to me.

    Thank you. It's the American Roll cover by Truck Covers USA. Very Solid. They pre-mounted the yakima roof rails on to the bed cover sides. I went with the Rhino rack feet and crossbar system. I wanted something that had a quick release option - no tools required and yakima's were more expensive with less load capacity on the cross bars. I like it a lot, but the only issue will be that I can't carry anything up high over the cab like a traditional truck rack - like a SUP, kayak, or lumber. It probably won't be a big deal, but Thule just released a new rack system this year that has a matching foot option to fit the Retrax bed cover. I didn't like that cover as much, but looks like a really nice setup with adjustable height. It will get pricey though.

    I went with the Bilstein 6112 front shocks at the 1.9" setting. Left the rear stock. I don't do enough off roading to justify the extra cost of the 6112 over the 5100's, but I figured I wouldn't regret it and I really wanted to get as close as possible to the 2" mark to level it out.
    Tires are cooper discoverer AT3 LTX 275/70/18. Bought TRD offroad takeoff rims for $300 on craigslist and added the TRD Pro center caps. I really didn't like the tire/wheel combo on the TRD Sport. Difference is huge in the looks now and it does absorb bumbs a little better with the new tire/wheel combo. My MPG dropped more than I would like - at least 1MPG - maybe 1.5, but I love the aggressive looks of the bigger tires.

    Good luck and enjoy your truck!

    If you live in a salt or winter state get yourself a gallon of FLUID FILM and undercoat your truck. It is worth its weight in gold!!!!

    First things I just did on my 1 week old 2019 limited were
    • Console organizer
    • 17” antennae
    • Pop and lock
    • Black tailgate badge
    Planning on getting an xpel wrap once get all the parts to dechrome the front

    Also planning on a new skid, trd dual exhaust, rear sway, toytec 3” lift, are shell, Auburn LSD, rock slider, fumoto on first oil change and grab handle once I’ve gotten a better feel for what I want/need.

    Congrats on the new truck, feels great don't it?
