    I’d start by checking fluids and filters. Catch-up any due maintenance.

    In before some suggests the "need" to remove all the chrome.

    Grab handle is a great start, although you will likely have to wait unless you want to pay full price.

    Cat protection is probably a good idea, or really good idea depending an where you live. Although an order of magnitude in cost above the grab handle.

    Good phone mount is another eas and fairly cheap place to start. I went with the ProClip And KlockWerks combo. Extremely solid, easy to install and doesn't block and air vey or field of vision. Not wireless charging compatible, well the ProClip is with another phone holder, I just don't care about that.

    I would equate eating most humans to eating trash fish… probably better that he was feeding the critters that would ultimately be better eating than what he was dumping.

    Imagine catching and eating a fish that had been living on dumped human bodies.

    More than likely, it would be crawdads, crabs, or lobsters.

    Congrats. Financially speaking this is the best trim level to purchase IMO.

    I can confirm. Blower with open diff=lame. I hate when it blows one tire off. Diff is my next upgrade.

    Details on lift and wheel spacer size? I have the same wheels and have been debating getting rid of them. But these pictures might have changed my mind.
    Also curious of the AT3s, thinking about getting a set.

    Curious. What was it that made you choose the Toyos over another set of Coopers? I'm on the Coopers now, but I was torn between these two options when I bought 2 yrs ago.

    The "lift" is just a LowrangeOffroad 3/1 level kit. Spacers are Spidertrax 1.25" = -32mm offset = resulting in 18mm offset from the 50mm rims. Only gripe about the rims are the centercaps... seems there's no TRD caps that will fit.

    I bought the rims/tires/spacers used, so the Coopers weren't a choice per se. Things that drove my decision towards the Toyos: 50kmi warranty, 3PMS rating, and generally well-liked throughout the Tundra community, from hours and hours of searching/reading.

    This weekend, I am planning to install the CBI front bumper that has been sitting in my garage for months. The only part holding me up is trimming the RCI skid plate. I also need a moderately priced option for fog lights. The OE ones are complete trash (by means of light output).
