I am running the Diamond 77 series with gain 3.0 5.5 and also a comet search and rescue model CA2x4 I think it is. with gain 3.8 6.2 both fold over or remove quickly. Then I have a 102" whip for HF to reach out in remote areas without repeaters.

The smaller one would do you ok, but there is no grease channel. The larger one might fit but seems like overkill. Currently they are not here at the house so can't tell you the brand names.

I used a dual Battery Kit from these folks and have not had any issues. http://www.hellroaring.com/

Ducky's Dad that was a great post. well said. Yep you need to negotiate with pawn shops as price marked is not the buying price. I have cell phone with me and google prices when I come across things I am interested in walk away if its not priced low enough. But if tool needs a new cord or other...

Craigs list was mentioned above but here we have several Pawn Shops loaded with loads of tools complete with Batteries and chargers for a great price. kinda like try before you buy high dollar equipment. Also when I built a place up in Montana, pawn shops were a savings for Milwaukee hole hawgs...

I would suggest you stroll over to: http://www.tundrasolutions.com/forums/ there are several folks there that can assist in your lift ideas. I have a 06 DC with the 3 leaf AAL and Icons up front.

X3 or so go for the 700# springs. With skidplates, sliders ,arb bumper and winch they are on the border of not being enough on my DC.

Ok educate me, why spend the extra money for the 2016 trd when you are planning on revamping everything underneath? what comes with the trd package that makes it worth the expense? could you not buy a standard SR5 and upgrade that?

I am with Kurt on allowing family to follow along by viewing my track. I use the Kenwood D72 connected to a outside antenna. As I also do Geocaching it makes a nice addition to the toolbox, use a Laptop connected to the gps antenna on the dash with topo mapping software to get a larger view of...

Traveling I use the travel/hailing frequency of 146.520 and or 446.000 in Death valley I have spoke with quite a few on the 146.520. I use Interstate 15 traveling to Montana and there is a I-15 inter-tie where repeaters are linked together and folks can chat from Vegas all way up through Idaho...

And if you want slightly older technology you can not go wrong with a Icom 706MKIIG with a AH4 tuner. This will give you multiple options of contacting someone. I like my Kenwood TS480 it works pretty decent. Some would say jump on down to Wouxun. A buddy runs one and it does ok. So like posted...

Great job on the skid row skid plate!! I went with the whole set and boy are they heavy.. Had to shim mine a bit because I went with the 1" drop so my cv joint boots won't tear. They make changing the oil filter pretty easy due to open access on the side.

Looks to be a WeatherGuard box..

Double cab Tundra is the best bet.. The pup gets to have his own seat, plenty of room for extra bodies when the need arises.

I solved this issue with the Hellroaring kit. Left my inverter on overnight resulted in dead main battery. A quick flip of the switch and I was up and running again. No mess no fuss of jumper cables etc.

I am running the Hankook At's in a 265-75-16 but the lt's only came in a E rating 10ply talk about a stiff tire for a Toyota Tundra, currently running them at 30psi with no obvious signs they are down that low. Yes stay away from the P rating as the sidewalls may give you fits off road.

I run a 06 Tundra DC w factory locker. Several years ago I hit black ice as I was entering Idaho from Utah needless to say the locker in the rear did nothing except spin us out and throw us in the ditch. Then the other day we had pretty good snowfall and Ice. Pulling out of a side street in 4x4...

I just had to replace my pc1200mjt batteries (2) they lasted a tad over 6 years, Luckily I have the Hell Roaring kit and flipped the switch to activate the second battery to get me home. BUT the problem that comes into play is. Do you have time to wait for West Coast Battery to ship out...

Did you have to do anything special to the frame horns? On my 06 DC they seem pretty shaky and ARB also claims Toyota made some change between 05 -06. I got the ARB on but been leary of mounting a winch. I do have the full set of Skid Row skid plates which I would assume? that the front one...

Suggest eating desert first as the the Pies at Lilo's are pretty darn good, Can always take vittles along for latter eating pie could be a challenge.
