New Member..... spend my money!

Brand new member looking for advice. Just got my wife a new 2017 TRD Off-Road. 3 days later she's ready to mod. i wish she'd been this way when I got my Tundra!

Her ideas so far:
- level / maybe a little lift
- black out all the chrome badges
- n-fab steps
- new wheels / maybe 18" or 20" Fuel Kranks
- bigger BFG KO2s
- hitch mounted bike rack
- who knows after that

This'll mostly be a daily driver / mall crawler. Nothing major off-road. The beach, dirt roads or easy trails. Want to maintain comfort / ride as much as possible.

What do you think I could do for $5k?

 

Get you some Kings resi shocks, custom colored to her favorite color all around with ToyTec rear springs. 17" wheels will save you money on the wheels and tires, look just as good if not better than 18's or 20's, and they'll ride better than 18' and 20's. You can black out the badges cheap with plasti dip, or get the badge covers i think off f Amazon, or even just remove the badges all together. BFG's are good tires, but for mainly on road, there are better ones out there. Fallen Wildpeak AT, Hankook Dynapro ATM, amongst many others. It's a great looking ride the way it is now, when you add everything to it, it will look bitchin.

 

Very, very true.

 

that's weird that you have the Dunlops, mine came with bridgestone

 

I got my 4R TRD OR a couple of weeks ago and it had the Dunlops too.

 

What are the goals for the rig? Let us know and then we can spend your money for you!

 

Mostly she wants it to look good. She doesn't want to give up ride or handling as it will primarily be her daily driver. Lite off-road - at least I scratch it up a little. She likes a lot about the one pictured below. Doesn't want the roof rack but you get the idea.

 

The door handles and flare look plasti dipped. I did my door handles and like the result really well.

 

I have an identical 4R and did wheels, tires, and a front leveling kit and I am happy with it.

 

My SR5 came with those same tires. Actually pretty nice. They did really well in the snow last year, but I still want Ko2s and they are on my short list.

 

Welcome!!!

We can get you hooked up with anything you need, what are your overall goals with this build?


Shoot me a pm or a call anything and we can chat about some options!

Spent some money.......

Started off with new N-Fab steps

 

Then a lift. Fuel Kranks. 285/70/17 KO 2s

 

Hey Jeff, I'm new member too. Question on the Nfabs. Are they the 3 inch?

 

Yep. Went with the 3”.

$480 T1360R | Fits 2014-2024 Toyota 4Runner (Does not fit 2010-2019 Limited and 2010-2013 SR5 Models) SUV

T1360R

 

Yeah, I'm leaning towards the 3 inch too. I had issues with them awhile back on my Tacoma. They did not fit right. Question do you have a close up pic of them. Are they mounted up tight near the body of the truck? What I did not like about them on my Tacoma it was hard to get your fingers in between them and the body of the truck to clean. Thanks Jeff.

 

They fit high and tight with the steps down and out a few inches. Much better than the factory steps.

 

Thanks Jeff.

 

What lift did you go with? Looks great!

 

What size level and tires do you have?

 

It’s a 3/2 lift with 285/70/17 KO2s

 

lift and tires and wheels bout 5700. Rides better than stock kings with resi's

 

What kit did you use? 2” lift?

 

What kind of roof rack is that?
