Towing my boat

 

I used to have that exact boat. Miss it now. Of course that was 3 boats ago....lol

 

Not all done 'today' but my '23 double cab limited has undergone quite a transformation in 2024...

Diamondback HD, Dirtcom Trail Swing, Westcott Designs Preload lift kit, CBI Sliders, ICON Wheels, Rave Offroad full TRD Pro trim (with Platinum mustache), SHW seat delete for the dogs...





And I can't leave out my new co-pilot, Beaux...

 

I ordered pro replacement shocks and Sparks Parts are saying they are now discontinued…
PTR61-34221-FR is the part number I used
Anyone know what’s going on here and what new number I might be able to use?

 

E A R S

 

Installed ICON UCA and front Shocks, waiting on rear Shocks, have rear Springs.

 

How was the UCA install? I gotta do my billet TRD arms still

 

Just take your time, I thought passenger side was a little more difficult. Make sure you disconnect the batter and let it sit for about 10 min, then remove your ECU. Getting a torque wrench in there was a little challenging. I had to hold the nut with crescent wrench, didn’t have wrench big enough, only 1 socket used that on the bolt side, easier to get it on that side that the nut. It was only suppose to take me 6hrs but between breaks and other stuff it took me about 9 hrs. Allot time researching torque specs for stuff ICON said see OEM torque. YouTube is your friend’s end.
Now I have to figure out why my truck won’t shift out of park. It was fine when I started.

 

9hrs to swap control arms or for all the work you did?

 

Shocks & UCA, had to grind on the lower shock housing x2 for the shocks to fit and set correctly, minor but time consuming. The Icon instructions says 3-4 hrs for the shocks, and 2-3 for the UCA.

 

I added some recovery points.

 

jumped through the hoops to get a new windshield as I got rocked on the highway coming home from first big road trip -.-
at least its OEM glass coming in the dealership and then to the glass place. much much less fun than accessorizing the beastie.

 

What did that cost? I need/want to get mine replaced. Cracked a few week ago on a trip.

 

Why do they place third different than every other one?

 

No added collection benefit from its mounting location, but I do expect it to collect more oil solely due to each intake having it's own lines and can. I assume they chose behind the grill for more space and easy mounting/access. These cans are larger than what you'd get with any other kit and they're re-configurable. They wouldn't fit in the same spot as the other kits you're referring to. It also looks friggin cool behind the grill.

 

@6rian have you seen any codes pop up or check engine light action after putting these on?

The kit looks great!

 

took it to my preffered glass guy first, it was too large to epoxy, about an inch all-'round star.

he was cool through and tried his best to match the right one to the truck as 28 different ones popped up for him due to different features among the trims. third party glass, no recalibration would have been 600.

drove home and made the call, insurance deductible only going to be 250, yours may vary by state/coverage and which trim you have. mines only a SR5

 

No codes or lights. I'll report back if that changes.

 

Added doggie (or whatever) platform for road trips. Sturdy as heck and turned out pretty decent. Thank you to @TTCM for the measurements.

 

Speechless

 

Got the tow mirrors installed. And the @cbioffroad bumper. Fun installation, especially w the daughter as my pit crew buddy.

 

Nice. We need a thread on the task of adding tow mirrors, see whatcha gone and did ?

 

Replaced the broken OEM radio knob with the aluminum knob from MACE yesterday. Ordered an OEM one from the dealer, but no idea when it will arrive. I told them they should already have a bowl of them and just hand them out when customers arrive. They didn’t laugh, but I guess I wasn’t joking.

 

Getting some use out of a pair of S2s I had sitting around.

 

Finally received my DB Switchback Friday and put it on, I'm very happy with it. Should have ordered this one from the start after the production and shipping fiasco with Agri Cover

 

How did you wire em up. Mod I’m looking at doing..

 

I made my own wiring harness and routed the leads to my sPOD controller in the engine compartment.
