    Hey, thank you for the follow up ... true to your word. I see no delay, only follow through and its very much appreciated. The pictures with the measurements are very helpful. Definitely will be folding to get in/out of the garage. And what's up with the width differences? Just knowing the driver's side is 18" and the passenger 17" is going to mess with ocd big time. :facepalm:

    A few post after my responses some folks talked about it.

    Since the tow mirrors stick out further, and the view angle from driver seat to each mirror is different, and that you are getting different angles off each. They sit at different angles to the vehicle. It really isn't noticeable until you pull out a measuring tape. And if they were at the same angles, you would not be getting the views you want/need and it would become pointless to have the mirrors.

    Other full discloser.... they take different amounts of time to fold in if you do power fold. Which makes sense since the passenger has less to travel and they likely have the same motor and gearing. Again, its not an issue once you understand. But some folks have thought they had a broken mirror since they don't "stop" in sync.

    Lol!! I see so many too and I wonder if they’re on the forums. Where are you usually around? I’m mostly going from Wolcott -> West Hartford most times. But you’ll see me on 84!

    Give me a honk next time!

    I finally saw a wild tundras.com sticker in a Tundra and got super excited!

    Its a fun feeling and I wish more folks rocked them or the ToyoMafia stickers so we had a better chance of chatting with them in either person or then finding them on the forum.

    Sounds like a solid choice. Honestly I have considered the 8000 series Bilsteins too. I have the 5100 setup right now and for being so cheap I they have taken so much abuse with no complaints it is crazy.

    Danbury, Stamford, Waterbury, Goshen, Hartford ... and travel to NH via i91 or i84 about 8-10x per year. My DC looks almost identical to yours, but with no chrome, stock 3dr brake light, tinted tails, and red accented headlights (for now).

    Looks like he used a cupholder ram setup along with the SG3 mount that Bailey designed. I have the same SG3 mount but put mine to the left of the steering wheel utilizing a vent mount. I've worked with Bailey developing a couple of light mounts for racks.. good dude. Strongly recommend supporting his little 3d printing side gig.

    All that being said, if I had to do it over again I'd probably go with the proclip phone mount just to the right of the steering wheel and use some industrial velcro. Puts it in the perfect position and doesnt take up a vent or obstruct your dash view. Just my $.02

    Ha, ha ... there's a few ... Milford, Fairfield, Norwalk, Stamford. I assume you're referencing Stamford though.

    I actually haven't air up once with the u748, it's more or less acting as a bump stops right now, which probably will remove them and convert to hydraulic bumpstops.

    Bought JBA upper control arms. Reds not my style so figuring out what color to re-powder coat them. I run fox racing 2.5 with dsc. Either keep them. Going fox performance for improved rust protector or king 3.0s. Leaning towards powder coating them king blue.

    While I wish I had knowledge of it, I have no idea how that side exhaust came to be on the truck. The tips are stamped TRD. I've done a cursory searching, but nothing like this has popped up. Prior to buying the truck, I had every intention of removing it ... but in the time it took to drive home from the lot it definitely grew on me.
