    2020 Toyota Tundra TRD Pro
    Hello everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. I just purchased a 2020 TRD Pro crewmax in White. Prior to that I owned a 2008 SR5, after 11 years of flawless service I finally decided to get the TRD Pro. I love the reliability and durability of the Toyotas and so does my wife. She has the 2019 Sequoia Platinum (4WD) She has been looking over my shoulder on Tundras.com and now wants to make some mods to her Sequoia.

    Being on this site is clearly going to be expensive but I appreciate the ideas and the hard won experience that resides here. I have already added the driver side grab handle but would like to add many more mods in the future.

    I will adding an ARE Z Series shell and a Truck Vault very soon. After that I am thinking of a lift, bumpers and maybe some LED lighting.

    I live just 10 miles north of Salt Lake City and would appreciate any recommendations to shops that can perform custom work such as bumpers, lighting and lifts.

    Thank you

    Mike

    Richard,
    Thank you. I just escaped SoCal, and not too far from where you are. I was north of you in Lancaster. Spent my whole life in California and although there are things I miss about it, there is more that I don’t. I love Utah and the freedom that we have here, especially the off-road opportunities which is very difficult to do in SoCal.

    Welcome from 25 miles north of Salt Lake city..... there are several places that do lift, bumpers and that kind of work around here like Fat Bobs Garage in Layton they do good work but go in there with good knowledge of what you want and how much you will pay because those guys are very good at Up Selling folks into much more than really want or need.

    Then there is 4 wheels and Parts they have good prices and many items along with large in house stock and you can purchase items online < 4wheelparts.com > get free ship by picking up at store Redwood road location or Ogden location they also do good installation work but they have waiting list at both location due to the demand so schedule week or two out and leave vehicle for a couple days.

    Also there is All Pro Performance in West Haven UT < http://www.allproperformance4x4.net/ > they are the Guys that do a lot the Extreme lifted Trucks we see running around here and I cannot say anything about them because I have not had any experience with them but have heard from those who have say they are happy with the results.

    Now a favorite for those who want install work done and have purchased something like a pair off off road bumpers from some where else and want them installed ( I would talk to them first tho) is https://sextonoffroad.com/ and they are located in Kamas, Utah they do real good work plus custom fab in house a lot of the folks that have early year rigs head there.

    Then there is Cruiser Out fitters < http://www.cruiseroutfitters.com/ > this Guy is awesome his main thing may be land Cruisers but he will share his knowledge on many things and can get you many items for Toyota's that many places seems to over look along with top quality workmanship what has impressed me with them is They will not just "sell" you something for a quick buck they want to know about your vehicle like what what the past history of it what mods have been done and what do you plan to do long term .... then from there recommendations will be made only down side of it is plan on being there for a bit of time ..... oh yea they are located in Murray, UT.
