Really clean build, limited slip is on my x-mas list for my Tundra.

We recently uploaded a new blog article, A Sema Truck That Wasn't, about the Tundra. Check out the link and read about our adventures and a few hiccups leading up to SEMA.


Once the weather cleared up enough, Carl took the Tundra to the dunes to test out all the suspension upgrades. Here is a short video of how it went:

Here are some more pics of how it sits now:

Hello, I was wondering if you could include some details on how you did the TRD pro facelift with rhw hood, Grille, headlights, tail lights, I might try to attempt this on my 2010 car, help would be appreciated

The Nitro Tundra has been a very long lived project for us and gone through an evolutionary process from mildly modified with a stretched chassis to a full update last year for the SEMA show in Las Vegas. It’s been a great truck and is a ton of fun both on and off-road.

Summer 2015 we swapped 2015 TRD Pro Tundra sheet metal front and rear including the lighting combined with SDHQ pre runner style fenders/bedsides for more clearance in the wheelwells. Add in a combo of Total Chaos long travel control arms, custom Atlas springs (now sprung under with floating air springs for load capacity) and bypass Icon shocks all around and this rig was clearly build for more than just show. An SDHQ front bumper mounting 3 ARB Intensity lights and Rigid fogs improved clearance without sacrificing the Warn 9.5XP winch or nighttime illumination. Rear bumper and hitch assembly (it still tows regularly) were custom fabricated in house. Finally, new Nitto 37″ Trail Grapplers wrapping black TRD wheels put the power to the ground.

This wasn’t exactly a stock rig when we started. The earlier build included the aforementioned TRD Supercharger, ran a color matched ARB bullbar, upgraded suspension and a fully boxed rear frame section lengthened 12 inches to accommodate the long bed instead of the standard tiny box as this Crewcab was equipped from the factory. It was a good, usable combination with somewhere north of 500HP, but visually not very unique.


Here it is before:

And after.

With the weather finally improving enough to go have some fun we took the Tundra to the only dunes in our area and let it off it’s leash for the first time since the rebuild. The Auburn Pro LSD unit and Nitro 4.88 gears easily took the power from the Supercharged V8 without issue and the Doug ThorleyDoug Thorley Headers headers and pipes sound amazing at full song (check out the video). The truck is an obsolute blast in the rough stuff as the suspension sucks up big and little whoops at ridiculous speeds for a daily driven street truck and sounds awesome doing it. Add in all that horsepower on tap with its supercharger whine and we’re really pleased with how this project has turned out. Nice on the street, still tows toys well and is extremely capable in the dirt.

I absolutely love how this truck has evolved! Keep the updates and pics coming!

I was hoping it was going to be at this years FJ summit but I didn't see it there.

How about some bigger/better pictures of the rear air bag setup. What are you using to air them up? Any issues keeping them in the lower buckets? I like the looks of that.
