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

My son has LT295/70R18 BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/AK02 on the OEM BBS 18” rims with no lift and no rubbing. Hope this helps.

 

My back windows did, but not the fronts.

 

Installed my own wireless charges into the console. Thread here: 3'rd Gen Dual Flush Mount Wireless Chargers.

 

How is his ride and mpg compared to yours ?

 

Mine hasn't blown up yet, maybe tomorrow ?

 

Rise is good. He has the same TRD OR suspension that I do. His MPG is less than mine and not as quiet. These tires are ~2x the weight of mine. He is used to AT tires since he has been running them on his Tundra and Taco before that.

 

Do you have a side view pic (full truck) of your sons truck with the T/AK02’s?

 

Here you go…

 

It looks great.

So you saying your son is running that on stock (no mods, leveling kit, lift or spacers) and he’s not rubbing? Picture does justify.

Just take my credit card already…

 

Yup. Just stock SR5 TRD OR suspension and the TRD PRO BBS wheels.

 

Installed TRD Pro fox suspension and heritage grill with OEM markers. Went out to the hunting property to putter around.

 

Genius! have anymore pics? Are they full length? did you drill through or use rivnuts? Is there anything to watch for when drilling through?

 

I purchased 2 sections of 48" L-track for Mac's tiedown as the series 1 fits inside the depressions of the bed. I ended up trimming them to about 36" as I don't foresee use to the very front of the bed. Added arrow head trim to tame sharp edges and filler to keep track clear of debris . I through bolted with

$10 1/4-20 x 1-1/4" Flat Head Socket Cap Screws, Allen Socket Drive, Stainless Steel 18-8 (304), Full Thread, Bright Finish, 25 PCS

flat head screws,

$7 Quantity 50Pcs 1/4-20 Nylon Insert Hex Lock Nuts, Stainless Steel A2-70/304/18-8, Plain Finish, by Fullerkreg

nylon lock nuts and fender washers procured locally. As these rails were not predrilled, I used a 1/4"drive 9/16 socket as drill guide. The bed is composite, maybe 1/4"thick. Drilled holes every 6-8 inches being careful to not land holes in the cross members. The most time consuming part is doing the hole placement, taking measurements from under the bed.

 

Thank you for the detailed info, i am for sure stealing your idea.

 

After four weeks of ownership, I got Icon Rocklear applied to the truck with Xpel PPF installed over the headlights. I then installed the Bulletpoint Rubigrid dash mount for my cell phone……the best phone and tablet mount I’ve come across!

 

You making Claymores for when the engine blows

 

Bad move. I got bad news for you if you think you'll have less issues with an F150. This whole deal has been (blown) no pun intended out of proportion. Its like less than 2% of total trucks produced actually have been reported as having issues. But they have to do a recall on all to cover their bases.

Heres what you bought...

definitely trolling

 

Its an older article. Probably more numbers now. Ive never had an issue with Toyota. Also the majority is with the 1st model year of the truck. You look like you had a 2024. How many of those in Jackson where 23-24 trucks??? Ive head/witnessed way more issues with Ford then any other truck brand.

 

LOL yea for sure. Lets post on a Tundra forum traded my Tundra fro a F150 but label it (not trolling) Def seems like a troll move.

 

Does he have a pro? Or did he put pro wheels on something else?

 

Why get so triggered if he got a new truck? If he is happy and it's his $ who cares.

Side note I drive ford's at work and they seem to hold up just fine. So congrats on a new ride.

 

As I said earlier in the posts, 6665 , he has a 2022 SR5 TRD OR. I was able to find 2 sets of low mileage TRD PRO BBS 18" wheels "take-offs". One set is now on his Tundra and the other is on my 2024 Limited. I also found a set of TRD OR "take-off" shocks that I had installed on my Tundra instead of the stock black set. His SR5 had 18" wheels that were narrower; I went from 20" to 18".

 

These post crack me up, you see the same bashing threads on the Harley Davidson, Ram Cummins, Fishing-Enjoy your Ford, but this is a Toyota Tundra forum. Fail to see you comments have to do with Tundra

Cheers

 

Installed air bag spacers from my readylift kit. No more harsh ride and kept the same height.

 

What size spacer did you use for the airbags?

 

its a 2in lift. Assuming the plate is 2in?

 

gotcha. So did you just use the rear spacers and then adjust the arms lower to keep the same ride height?

 

my oem arms were maxed out before the spacer...that gave me a 24" measurement from middle of hub to bottom of fender flare. Adding the spacer and leaving the arm where it was, left me with the same ride height but less air in the bag, which is what I wanted for a smoother ride.

I didnt install the extra adjustment brackets or shock extenders in the pic...I dont want any more lift, but it is possible with that stuff.
