WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

Did you do it yourself? I almost done wrapping it all myself and the tailgate handle, fender flares, and the grill are all that's left. I got a guy that do the grill and mustache for 300, so debating if I should pay him or just do it myself. The fender flares I'm still on the fence on, I got a white tundra and it's crazy how some parts are chrome, black, and gray.

 

Yes. First time wrapping and it wasn’t all that bad. The bottom portion under the front bumper was the worst only because I tried to wrap it in a single piece. I had to stress relieve it quite a bit to get it smooth and stay. I wound up putting a small insert on the last edge and using touch up paint to hide the seam. It looks like one-piece unless I’m cleaning bugs off it, so I’m happy with how it turned out.

The door handles and back bumper were easy. The tailgate handle was difficult, but since it was small, it wasn’t a terrible like the front bumper was.

I bought the matched grill surround (3 piece) and the mirror caps painted so I’m not sure how they would be to wrap.

 

Been awhile since last post, but want to update pics.

TRD Lift Kit (finally)
35 x 12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers
TRD Skid Plate

Really stoked on how it turned out.

 

Looks great! Quick questions, how much weight does that Diamond back add? It looks really sharp. Also curious how you like your rigid light bar?

 

@R2theD2 Looks great how are you liking it so far.

 

Finally Trd steps came in! I love the look and feel of these and about the perfect amount sticks out, easy for my daughter/wife to get in.

 

Looks great!

 

Very happy with look / stance and there is almost no poke (added picture). I have only been a passenger in it so far, as I had a surgery that is not allowing me to drive for another week or so, but my wife took me for a ride and it felt really nice (we didn't go very far, just around town). It is much taller and just feels much bigger now, which is great. I probably won't get it off road for another month or two, but seriously can't wait for that... I also did the TRD Skid Plate, and will get a picture of that at some point (back surgery, so hard to get down low).

Highly recommend though (other than it was $$$)

 

Just thought I’d pass on that ch4x4 has push button switches for the 2022+ Tundra. Bought switches from them before for my Tacoma and was very pleased. Looking forward now to Tundra switches.

Install icamper .Uptop rak.

 

Put some Amazon purchased Mud Flaps on, easy to do and I think they fit well. Then added my GoRhino RB10’s and again a pretty easy install.

Purchased some WeatherTech floor mats.

The ones that came with the truck didn’t offer enough coverage especially in the snow season.

I also purchased emblem inserts which will be coming at the end of the month. They will be gloss black with the word Tundra in Lunar Rock. Will post when installed.

Update

TufSkinz Emblem Inserts Installed
Lunar Rock Font.

 

I’m looking at those and husky, did you look at husky too? Those look good

 

There were other posts that said husky had better coverage

 

I looked at Husky but I believe the Husky’s cost was more, availability was 3 weeks and with the WeatherTech I can swap out the emblems to make them more personalized.

 

Both WeatherTech and Husky are great floor liners, can’t go wrong with either one. I’ve owned many WeatherTech liners over the years, all have worked very well, look good, and great coverage.

The customization on the WeatherTech emblems sounds interesting, I didn’t realize they did that.

The only negative comment I can make based on personal experiences, the WeatherTech liners are slippery, especially for the wife and kids.They are made of a hard plastic material but, they look good, and hold up very well.

I decided to try the Husky X-Act for my 2023 CM, and yes, from what I saw, the Husky are a little more expensive than the WeatherTech.

I’ve owned the Husky X-Act for a few months now and, I ( and the family!) like them much better. The Husky’s X-Act are made of a rubber like material, non slip, look good, and great coverage.

I believe Husky makes a cheaper version that’s similar to the WeatherTech plastic material but not sure. I noticed there was a cheaper option on the Husky site.

Husky offers a $25 Visa rebate card, submit the form via RealTruck. I got mine in less than a month.

 

I've had husky liners on all 3 of my Tundras ('00, '11, '23) - I found they hold more water /ice/snow in them than the weathertech did. I go in/out of my truck a lot when loading/unloading my boat, so I want good coverage of all the water off my shoes. In the winter, when I was in Vt, they held the snow/ice/salt really well. When I pull them out, the carpet underneath looks original.

 

Rear King shocks installed. Front shocks, UCAs and rear coils will be installed this upcoming weekend.

 

Started working on my trailer setup. Here’s a pic before the Andersen WDH is installed.

 

The emblem swap out is through Etsy. Use the search bar for WeatherTech emblem swap out for Toyota Tundra

 

had weather techs and hated them, swapped for husky and much better coverage and comfort

 

Double Cab fam, we have sliders available now for our trucks from CBI! I also added their rear bumper, which is incredibly well-made. I go over everything in this video. Subscribe/like =D

Where did you find this? I was looking at getting the front bumper and sliders but wanted a matching rear bumper and their site doesn't have it.

Thanks in advance.

 

We work directly with CBI (we're dealers), so hit me up if you want to put an order together, I can give you a deal if you want to bundle too =D
I had to travel there and back a few times to help with product development for the Double Cab, specifically on the sliders. This is the first rear bumper installed on a customer truck (besides their prototype on their green tundra). It is super well made, beautiful welds, and very well thought out design that retains all the factory sensors and tow capability.

I mention in the video that the rear bumper and sliders go into production this week. It will be about 3-4 weeks before they ship. I don't believe they have them on their website yet.

 

If you want to place a pre-order, I can help you with that too.

 

I am curious why you wanted to swap out the Fox suspension on the Pro? Also, what rear coils are you putting on, and what difference will they make for you?

 

I put my Timbren SES Stops in the rear today.

I took it for a test drive and noticed a strange immediate bump going over the little road defects. They are almost touching the axle so the little bit of travel pushes the axle up and hits the stop. Keep in mind that it is cold and these are brand new and quite stiff.

The truck will sit down on these with a little weight in the back which we usually have and also the trailer. I need to test it with more weight on the rear axle at get a better idea of how these ride.

Pics show side by side of the OE bump stop and the Timbren. and the Timbren in place filling up the space between the frame and axle. They claim to have a 6" final install size. Under normal conditions, there should be a 1 1/2" to 1/2" gap when the truck is unloaded. Mine is more like 1/2".

These definitely won't help improve articulation but they do offer an "Off road" version.

 

Good questions, I was curious about this as well

 

Picked up my limited yesterday, Removed the console safe and order husky floor mats today
