MY BUILD 2012 Prerunner before and after

I have had my 2012 dc long bed TRD sport for a few months now. My first mods were plasti diping the badges and adding the roof rack and nerf bars. Since I have added a skid plate, Avid bar, bed cover, pop n lock tail gate, 5100's set on 1.75, and black rock 909b rims.

Added a roof rack and nerf bars right away


Then blacked out the badges



Then got a skid plate and small antenna and a pop and lock and bed cover



The ordered the AVID bar



The I did the 5100s at 1.75 and new rims



Needed tires



Got a TRD banner from sockmonkey



added a cargo rack



Holds bikes too



took the truck to the sierras

 

Looks awesome, so for the suspension you just got 5100's set at 1.75?

Planning on doing that w/ keepin the stock tire size.

 

Nice setup!!!

 

Yeah just set the front ones to 1.75 to level it out with my 2012 non tsb leaf pack. When I get tires I will probably get the Nitto trail grapplers in 265/70-17. So just alittle taller then stock with a lot of tread.

 

Cool and the Rear to 0''?

How does it ride smooth or even better than the toyota blistens that come stock?

Edit - just read the 5100's rear are non adjustable

 

I had the trd sport so I had the 4300's to start but the 5100's are definitely better then stock. And you are correct the rears are not adjustable.

 

Yours makes me want to get new tires.

 

twinsies...nice!

 

Thats cool. we have the same truck. I like your duratracs. I may get those. How is the road noise. did you fit them on stock suspension? any trimming? How has your prerunner done off road with them?

 

I'm loving the Duratracs! HUGE difference in off-road performance between the highway tires and these (as to be expected). As for road noise, you'll definitely notice a difference from highway tires but when compared to other all-terrain tires, not as bad as you'd expect from looking at them. Turn the stereo up a little more and the noise is gone. They are on stock suspension now but I only got the 265/70/17's which fit without any rubbing. if I had gone with the 285's I'd have to do cab mount chop and trim plastics to hit full lock. Just got back from King of the Hammers and I was pretty happy with how it performed. didn't get stuck at all and some of that sand on the way to Chocolate Thunder can get pretty thick. Didn't really push it but it handled very well. It's still no 4x4, but it works.

 

Thanks for the info. Ive been trying to decide on a tire for a while. Ive heard alot of good things about duratracs.

 

Do you have 3 leafs or 4 leafs? I have the non-tsb but it comes with 4 leafs.

 

I have 4 leafs. The leaf packs that need the TSB have 3.

 

I concur on the Duratracs. I've never owned a lifted truck (albeit mildly at the moment) but have owned a few lowered trucks in the past. In other words, I wasn't used to offroad tires prior to the Duratracs. Sure, there's noise, but it's no big deal. I was actually trying to break them loose in the rain today with about half throttle. Wasn't happening. So yeah, I'd recommend them, no question.

Oh and my truck is currently covered in mud from last weekends mountain bike excursion. It is DEFINITELY better offroad than the Destination AT's I had before.

 

Good to know. I just have to save up for them. How does your prerunner do off road with them?

 

I think Im done modding guys. Finally got tires. Goodyear wranglers 265/70/17.

 

Truck looks good man! Are you using stock coils with the 5100?

 

The cross bars arrived and here are some photos of the setup. Next week I am going camping and there will be 3 people and my husky in the cab. Plus 3 bikes, firewood and camping gear for 4 days in the sierras. Im hoping this rack helps me fit everything. KB VOODOO makes a good product.

 

Yes.

 

This is the first time I've seen my product in use by someone other than me!!

Looks like you're making great use of it.

PS: Make sure you put a bungee on the back of those bikes so they don't whip off the side.
