The "yet to be named" tundra build

[JCMatthews]

Looks great! Thanks for the inspiring photos. I am shopping right now for a DC Tundra.

Go easy on those tires. I want them to be in good shape when I buy them when you swap in a pair of Diamond axles and some 40s.

bahahaha I'll need to get the OK from Jen on that!! Not going to happen (yet) :victory:

I picked up a used set of OME 885 with struts. I am liking the bilstiens but couldn't pass these up.

I also talked to Deaver today and have a set of customs springs coming. :sombrero:

Sliders are done, just need to weld them on. Wheel alignment is done, made a big difference. I just need to figure out a headache rack/ RTT rack for the back. Should be a good week for truck stuff!

 

[JCMatthews]

Bump for anything new.

 

[the dude]

No real updates to report. I had to trim the pinch weld and relocate the bolt because my Toyos where rubbing on the body.

Powder shop screwed up the primer on on my sliders and there was no intercoat adhesion with the topcoat. That's getting fixed today. I hope to have them back for the weekend.

Ordered a set of Deaver rears 600lbs extra load capacity, 1.5" of lift. Should be here in a month.

Great build!
Your moving right along! No need to ever go to a concert, you can just tailgate and show the concert/game inside the truck! :ylsmoke:

Well, getting the trailer prepped for next weekend and our first venture out with the tundra! Should be F-U-N!

Looks great. You should just yank the bed off the Tundra and drop that trailer tub into it's place.

Any chance of getting more pics of your trailer? The compartments etc?

It's in the works, but as a long term project. I think I will go with a scratch build though... Jen is going to KILL me. This is her truck...:smiley_drive:

As for pics of the trailer, it's a pretty straight forward CDN M101 inside with a SOA and Cruiser hubs, custom fenders, custom extendable hitch. If you want anymore details, just post up.

Looking good Brad!

 

[the dude]

Thanks Conrad, I am trying to get it all buttoned up before the baby comes in Sept! Just need to add a car seat and get the rear rack made.

 

[JCMatthews]

Wow!

Loving the trailer Dude.:drool:

Got the sliders on. Debadged the passenger side and painted the mirror (good for at least 2mpg) If I could only find a nice honey comb grill to match the bottom bumper vent I would get rid of all the chrome. Weekend project is to start working on the bed rack for the RTT!

Looks great! Who makes the sliders? 2mpg! I HAVE to paint mine now!
