From what i have seen on Tundra builds that are adding Long Travel suspension front and rear, the rear frame c-channels are being boxed. Mostly for support to the area around the bumpstops and upper rear shock mounts. Some have done away with all crossmember and replaced them with both square...
Boxing the frame in key areas, likely 3/16". Areas of framerail id be concentrating on would be 2.
One section about 2-3' long under the cab/bed junction. This section boxed would give more support to frame flex that allows the bed to contact the cab when the suspension compresses.

Slow going parts accumulation.
Coveted Camburg bits have arrived! Ive heard its not easy getting items from Camburg, rumors are true :) Shawn at http://www.rogue-offroad.com was my go to guy pulling off the impossible!
LT inner axles for the Camburg kit. Ive heard that the Total Chaos...
Both of those are great rigs.
Problem is, to me, that you bought new. Meaning that whatever you do, the $$ you've put into your vehicle as of now is wasted. Except that you have a new car, which is why we do that.
Honestly the logic doesn't add up to me. The two vehicles are the same. Trail...
Got some very little stuff done today with an amazon delivery that arrived.
Secondary Air Intake Pump Relocation DIY.
Didn't want to pay for these kits that are out to relocate the intake tubes for the AIP. Camburg and SDHQ both offer very nice kits if your not interested in sourcing nd...
So excited to get theses under the truck! I think even more than a front LT setup. The 3.0 bypasses should outperform the Tundra without batting an eye. And i am told they should really help with body roll as well, since i plan to not run a front sway bar (and have not for years). I know...
GVWR is just that. It is a rating set to each vehicle by the MFG. You cannot change that. Unless by legal recertification.
Any modifications made can or will have an effect on the vehicle. You may improve the handling of weight by changing suspension, adding frame plating, etc...
Alrighty! Moving forward, slowly but not. Been a busy few weeks in the Sierras with 4th of July Holidays and mega touristos. Was in our big 4th Parade, FUN!
Have been on the hunt for a LT front suspension or parts. Had narrowed my search to:
Total Chaos...
Northstar NSB-AGM-27f was a direct drop in for our 2010 4runner. Not certain on the Taco

To expand on the Methods :) , no worries there for you. The method 18mm offset wheels fit perfect at full articulation both front and rear no fender rub. I added the glass fronts to accommodate the front LT width coming soon.
So, thats actually what I'm talking about when i say a street...
You, my friend. Get the Chicken Dinner :)
OK! this is happening.
Its about time i Man up!!!! Tired of not being able to go thru the rough stuff without cringing.
Ive been playing awhile now with this thing and its finally time to step it up to where i knew i should go i the first place...

But- seriously consider the Knuckle/Hysteer option that Brian at FrontRangeOffroad now offers (Diamond Axle).
