@tyv12. There's a piece if 3/16" plate running the entire length of each bed rail and bolted on that the tubing is welded to. The shelf for the water jugs is smooth expanded metal. The section above the cab is basic but has tie ins for the hi lift and the LED light bar. The ski locker stays on...

My truck 2001 tundra. Slee kit, dual batteries, solar, 285 Terra grapplers. Camp gear and cool stuff (I can't say ******t). Blah blah blah. And yes it's dirty until the rain washes it.

Yes. Built that myself. Didn't have the patience (time) to build the bumper myself. Would have rather had a blade style bumper but addicted is close (no shipping) so seemed like the best option.

Yes it is. Smittybilt 9500# winch.

Hello Everyone - I'm looking for front and rear bumpers for a 2001 Toyota Tundra. I would like something that is low profile and sleek looking but also something that will hold up and has winch capabilities. It seems to be a hard find so that's why I'm needing help. I apologize if there is...

well i already have the interstate as my starting battery. it's the green top. not sure if it's the hybrid or not but i have it and i will keep it until it dies. when my battery died i just went out and bought the best battery i knew of and fixed the problem without researching alternatives...

hello everyone. i'm looking for a pure sine inverter to run my netbook, camera battery charger and maybe a dewalt 18V lithium ion charger. the inverter will be fed from my auxiliary battery, probably a diehard platinum group 65 ? i have read some of the posts here and have heard that you can...

hello everyone. i'm redoing my electrical system and need some advice/suggestions on what to use for an auxiliary battery. i just rebuilt my alternator to 140 amp and replaced my starting battery with an interstate (don't see much mention of interstates here but have used them in the past...

been lurking here for a while. finally got my rack mocked together so i thought i'd share. the roll top tonneau cover is off right now until i get it finish welded and painted. there will be a shelf behind the rear windows for 4 blue 7 gallon water jugs. on the drivers side of the rack will...

very valid points from two people. thank you. keep them coming. i kind of had the same idea. i have heard of solar collectors made into shingles and siding for homes that are very inefficient and these collectors seem to be similar. i do love criticism. first of all to save me money and...

hello there. i have been lurking a while in a few different categories. currently i am thinking about doing a full on solar / dual battery with inverter setup in my 2001 4.7L tundra. i want something that is VERY user friendly, uncomplicated, low maintenance, reliable, etc. i also want to...
