ITOWJKS Cavalry Blue Build

And.... "It Really Works"!!!

 

Beautifull set up! How many people does that tent fit.

 

4 adults easily!

 

thank you for the Info! much appreciated. Like I said nice set up

 

Just wanted to say thanks for all your help

 

Anytime!!!

@ITOWJKS twin brother!!!

Love it, looks great!!!

 

Yes the tent is perfect for us plenty of room, I was looking at others until you're recommendation and we love it

 

Wow... it’s been a while since my last post. Few more things completed...

Color matched mirror caps... checked ✅

Before:






After:






Then, BMC... ✅



Next up, suspension... ✅

I went with Icon Stage 9: front coilovers with remote reservoir and CDC, rear shocks with remote reservoir and CDC, multi rate RXT leaf springs (all in - max height) and upper control arms but not the billet aluminum option, which I’m now regretting.








FYI, instructions call for dropping the rear diff one side at a time but doing it this way I wasn’t able to make the leaf pack fall into place so I opted to drop down the whole thing and it made a great difference. Also, on the front, I disconnected the sway bar (both sides) in order to do the coilovers otherwise, these were not gonna go in. It might be different if doing the install on a lift.

This is how it looked after completing the install...



And finally, wheels and tires... ✅

I went with all black Icon Rebound wrapped in 35” Nitto Ridge Grappler.







Next on my mods list:
A. Rock rails - in no particular order, these are the ones I do like more so far:
1. SDHQ
2. Beastfab
3. White Knuckle Offroad

What are you guys running, recommendations?

B. Color matched hood bulge, grill surround.

C. Sound system - eyes set on Alpine ILX, to pair up with 2 sets of JL Audio C2-650 and dual OEM Audio Subs which I already have. Still trying to decide on amp.

D. PPF and Decals/Wrap

E. Icon rear bumpstops

F. Replace all my Rigid Industries ligths for either Baja Designs or KC Hilites

G. SDHQ hidden winch mount

H. HAM radio (hard mounted)

I. Warn winch

J. ARB Twin air compressor

K. More lights

ETC...

 

sweet build dude

 

Sorry if i missed it but where did you get your chrome delete parts? I still love this build! Keep the progress coming!!!

 

Beautiful truck

 

I bought everything from @Roman!

 

Would love to have color matched handles but I hear its expensive for Cavalry Blue.

 

Truck looks great! Black everything looks so good against the Cavalry blue.

How are you liking the Ridge Grapplers so far? Are they fairly quiet/comfortable on pavement? I had STT Pros on my last Tundra which were great, but I'm thinking about going with something a little less aggressive on my new truck.

 

Same here... I priced them at around $450 for cavalry blue

 

Ufffff!!! That's is steep!!!

 

Love the Ridge Grapplers, great ride and pretty quite!!!

 

Any more updates on this ride?

 

There's actually a few...

Got a new "buddy"...











Replaced turn signal bulbs for LEDs...





Completed chrome delete on the exterior (hood bulge, grille and surround):





Added "Anytime Backup Camera" (front/rear camera)...







Wireless phone charger in arm rest, haven't transferred the "Limited" badge yet...



Powder coated and installed TRD Pro skid plate...







Removed the TRD4X4 Off Road stickers and replaced them with some vinyl...
Before...


After...





Also, made my own hood stamp...
Before...


After...



Mountain Hatch with some modification to fit the Leitner ACS brackets. There was really no need to complete cut a "chunk" out of it but I worked with what I had on hand...







White Knuckle OffRoad rock sliders...











ARB Twin Air Compressor on Rago Fabrication mount. Still haven't wired it, power harness is like 5ft long and since the compressor is right next to the battery I'm considering to cut it, not sure yet...



Vinyl wrapped the fake interior wood trim and chrome AC vent rings...







Rago Fabrication Modular Dash Plate...



And last, replaced factory LED fog lighs for Baja Designs...





Next up would be replacing the Rigid Industries ditch lights with Baja Design Squadron, installing the SDHQ ABS sensor guards and later on, replacing the RTT...

 

Which bumper caps did you buy?

 

Got them from Sparks Parts.

 

Well I am considering copying the wheels...i can't decide on these or the methods...so many choices. Going to order the skid plate but prob can't afford to get it powdercoated..

 

This is a 100% sick build. Wow.
