Let's see those Cement Tundras

Phase 2 complete

 

Which winch did you go with? Lookin' good, BTW.

 

Thanks! I settled on the Warn VR10S.

 

Since we're sharing...

 

Do you have a side profile pic? Id like to see how the rubber improves the look of the stock wheels.

Here’s a few shots taken at T2S. Turns out Cement looks pretty good surrounded by AZ colors.

What rack is that?

 

Here's mine bone stock at the moment

 

New wheels and tires. Came from vtx 18" on 35s, now 17s and 37s

 

Dara, sweet looking wheels. Hey, I'm noticing most guys with 37s have glass fenders. How difficult was it to fit those big dogs under there on stock fenders (you're still on stock fenders, right)?

 

I need to know this also.

 

Thought I'd post an update of my truck since I bought it 2 months ago. Added 6112's up front at 1.9" and got rid of all the chrome, including powder coating the wheels and front/rear bumper caps.

 

If anyone ever has a chance to get a picture of a cement '17 Pro next to a cement '18 or '19 (non-pro, er, amateur?), could you post it here, please? Word on the street is that there is a very subtle difference in the cement colors between pros and nons. I'd like to see it for myself. Thank you in advance.

 

If you look at a pro grill on an '18 or '19 you can see that there might be a difference.
I have a picture somewhere of both of my trucks.

 

Not a great comparison because of the lighting and dirt. If there is a color difference it is greatly exaggerated in this picture.

 

Pro:

 

Looks BA man!!! Have any more pics of those chain wheels???

 

Those are some good looking rims!!!

 

not cement but....

 

Thanks @sdde4n ! There are a few guys that are running 37s without glass fenders, most of them are probably with glass fenders because of going with the LT setup. I took a lot of reading and visualization on the wheel well and clearance after @KevinK posted his thread a long time ago in regards to fitting 37s without going glass. Only difference that made his and some others a bit easier are the offset of the wheels, I took a dice gamble and went a bit on the negative side of the offset from the brand of the wheels. Supposedly an offset between +25 and +10 is where you would want to be.

I did a really extreme BMC where the flange of the bolt for the body mount got shaved, caster is the trick and what KevinK and Oside also mentioned is heims UCA to get a bit more caster and also correct the camber from excessive caster. That's pretty much it honestly... Oh wait, I did put slits on the inner wheel well pinch welds and hammered them in, spot welded and applied body rubber silicone, and then sprayed over with some rubberized liner. My tires do make contact with the liners when I come into full compression/tuck after some newborn airborn, but the rear's I have the hydrobumps set to where it wont take my bedsides out haha. No rubbing on full locks and no rubbing while full lock into reverse or in drive (well there's a slight rub, but its the liners I need to trim off a bit more.)

So far it's been doing pretty good when I am out testing the clearance. Only thing that got bashed was the skid plate and radiator from an ugly airborn I did during Easter weekend haha.

 

Saw your truck on South and Panorama a couple of weeks ago. Great job on the mods.

 

South and Panorama? Doesn't sound like an intersection I've been on. There's no streets name Panorama where I live at. How long ago was this? My truck has been sitting down in my driveway since April 22nd for a suspension refresh up front.

 

My bad, South and Paramount. It was the evening of April 20

 

Ahh okay. A close friend of mines lives near there so Im usually driving that area often on the weekends.

 

I've read Kevin's thread and even looked at his truck at T2S, the best I could come up with was that he must have sacrificed a goat.

 

Hahahah!!!!

Two actually. One for each side.

 

Reminds me I need to update the build thread with the zero offset beadlocks and all the kooky shit we had to do to make them work on MT.

But @5.7TRDProm is right about offset being the key to fit 37s on stock fenders.
