    2020 Tundra SR5 TRD Off-road Crewmax
    Hey everyone, I’ve been lurking around the forums for awhile, figured I’d introduce myself. I’m a farmer in Eastern Washington State. We grow mainly vegetables along with some seed crops and cattle. I have a 2020 Tundra SR5 Crewmax with the TRD Off Road package. My Tundra is used mostly for farming, and it’s pushing around 115,000 farm miles with relatively few issues. In the peak of the farming season, I’ll usually drive 150-200 miles a day, mostly all gravel and dirt roads. This truck has been amazing with only some normal wear and tear for so many hard miles!IMG_8103.jpg71099576810__D7E31595-0666-40C2-99B8-D2AB6388D5BF.jpgIMG_7323.jpgIMG_6595.jpg

    A few of the mods I’ve done:
    -Bilstein 6112 Level in the front, and 5160’s in the back
    -Coachbuilder rear shackle lift
    -Currently running BFG HD Terrain 295/70-18 tires
    -TRD OEM Aluminum Skid Plate
    -Highway Products Toolboxes and Headache Rack
    -Whelen/ Soundoff Signal Amber flashing lights for moving farm equipment
    -Kenwood VHF radio for our farm repeater
    -Rough Country 30in LED front bumper lightbar
    -TigerTough seat covers
    -Probably a few more I can’t remember

    I’ve only had a couple minor issues considering the hard use. A couple evap issues, due to dirt in the system. Wheel speed sensor malfunction, also do to dirt. And the fog lights shaking, which seems to be a normal issue.

    I’ll try and get some pictures up, gotta figure that out next, Thanks everyone!

    Nice truck. Welcome from Idaho.

    How do you like the 5160s and the Coachbuilder shackle? I'm thinking of going that route.

    I’ve liked them pretty well. I did the highest setting on the 6112’s in the front and then either the 1 or 2 inch shackles in the back. Can’t remember since it’s been a few years ago. Rides really nice on and off road and keeps a small rake in the back so you can still tow a trailer decent without much sag

    So far they’ve been pretty good. I have about 10,000 miles on them and they are all wearing pretty even. Noise isn’t bad. I had some cooper stt pros and those were horrendous for noise. The BFG’s have a very faint hum. They don’t throw many rocks either
