2004 Tundra Adventure Cab - Build/Adventure Thread

[toyotech]

Didn't like the spacer lift (leveling kit). I wanted the nose back down a tad compared to the rear. So I ordered up a set of 5100

Here is what it looks like with two 3 inch spacer lift lol

5100 front and rear with factory coils. Rear still has one inch block. So far i like the ride. A tad firmer but feels good on high speed bumps
Forgot where I set the front at. I wanna say 1.3 inch lift. I already had a diff drop kit front pervious leveling kit

I later got new lower ball joints. Just to be on the safe side.

Looks good. Like the colors and I wanted those rims but hard to find at a decent used price.

Since I went down to a smaller size tire and the factory rim sits to far in the wheel well than I liked. I got some wheel spacers.
1.25 front and 1.5 rear since the rear isn't as wide as the front stock. At least visually it's not.

Next I wanted an aluminum shell mainly for the internal frame. I already had plans in my head of what to do. It's not finished but it's been used many times and I love it so far.
It's actually for a Dodge Dakota. 2007 I think. It's barely fits on the bed rails and is about an inch or so longer than the bed.
I extended the bed rail with some 2x4 and topped it with a metal plate i trimmed to somewhat match.
The top is bolted down using Toyota head bolts I had laying around

This shows the new wheel stance and shell on. I still need some metal to filling in the rear gaps but I have been using it like this since
Wood is stained in a dark cherry color.

The lift and rake cuz i do tow a rzr from time to time and I pack a lot of gear lol
I need to get some sliders soon.

There happen to be another tundra with the same shell but his was made for the tundra. I still like mine better since it's a little more closer to the cabs body and since it sticks out more in the rear. I can still remove the tail lights for bulb change. The correct shell blocks access and needs removal.

Main reason for this type of shell is so I could build a storage rack and double as a table. Even use it to crack the shell a little bit for air flow.

Two sets of lighting.

Need to get some better pictures.

Here is also some pictures from soggy lakes ca with my rzr and a buddies LT 4wd tundra

Very nice, I love that storage rack project.

 

[toyotech]

Thank you.
So more pictures and a carpet kit I picked up for $40. Has the sides but don't fit well cuz it was for a double cab

Need more stuff to add to the rack.
4 switches for each row of lights right in the overhead in the back near the 3rd brake light

Haven't been on for a while. Have done a few small things and big things happening as we speak. Front and rear bumpers built by Brute Force Fab. They are in production and anyone interested. Place your orders. He doesn't have update pictures on his site but it's coming. I only have teaser photos of rear. The front is on as well but still has work to be done.

Got a complete front and rear husky weather mats. Love them
EGR bug deflector. Haven't tested it yet go see if it really helps with bugs

This is actually for the 1st gen sequoia. Is a little different and he already has made the changes and fabbed up the tundra one. Didn't get pictures of the updated one yet. Soon.

Thanks for the pics, looks like a great option for the front & rear.

 

[FJR Colorado]

Very nice!

Is that a Unicover topper? They can sell you the parts very inexpensively to add a rack. That's what I did. Then I mounted a solar panel.

I like your concepts.

Quite the 1st Gen Tundy Party this has become....

Front bumper looks great! Good fit!

 

[utroda]

Anyone notice how all of the bumpers for our tucks seem to stick out a lot, is there a reason for this? I love the look of the taco bumpers they seem to be a lot more low profile.

Something like this -

There's more stuff to cover up on a Tundra. If you relocate the washer reservoir, it can get a bit higher and tighter.
