Inferno Thread

Looking awesome twinnzy!!

 

Nice!

 

Looking at your neighbors cars and there is a lot of white and silver then there is you with a big orange truck!!

 

What did you do for the rear lift?

How are you liking the ride compared to the stock OR suspension?

 

You were my inspiration!

 

I forgot to include that part! I did the Deaver AAL on the @HeadStrong Off-Road Bilstein kit inclusive of 5100 set at 0.

As far as ride ...it rides WAY better in my opinion. I used @r6chan ’s advice and went C load on the KO2’s and it rides like a beauty.

Definitely recommend that CMC too. I happened to have a shop guy do it and he fabricated his own brackets which saved me time and money— that part only cost me $210 OTD!

 

Finally got my AJT key fob put together! Getting the transponder out took some work, but I did it without harming it! I'm not a huge fan of the Inferno color of the fob, it's quite a bit darker... But I may just hit it with some inferno paint eventually!

 

Which one is that on his site? I wanted to get one but could only find the fobs for the push button start owners. Mine also is an actual keyfob

 

It's the one for the 2018 Tundra/ 16+ Manual/SR/SR5 Tacoma

When you say it rides WAY better? What exactly makes it better than the stock off road suspension? Can you describe the differences?

Also, in regards to the tires? C load as opposed to what? E?


Finally, do you have any more pics, truck looks fantastic!!

 

Thanks man! I must’ve just overlooked it

 

Sorry for the late reply, Yes C compared to E load. I’ve heard E can ride a lot stiffer, I’ve been very pleased wit the C and really shudder to think of the power and mileage loss with E load. If you’re seriously rock crawling then definitely go E load though. Since I’m not that’s why I went with 17” wheels as well.

As for ride saying “WAY better” may have been sensationalistic but I guess what I mean is the suspension handles everything well and it rides a lot smoother than I expected.

Here a few more pics for you before I put the side steps on

 

I used rustoleum spray. I only clear coated the stripe so there is a different t stare between the two. I plan to re-spray the whole thing. A grey base with the orange stripe. Then clear the whole thing. I feel that would look and feel closer to stock.

 

Thanks man, that thing looks great.

 

Alright fellas. Results are in. Average 16.7mpg. Approx 800 miles. ETC on and sequential shifting in the mountains. 4-banger reved high but no issues towing here.

 

Did you have any vibrations or did you do the needle bearing fix while you were in there switching out components? I’m only lifted 1” in the front but may go with the 885 coils to get the 2” of lift but dealing with the needle bearing sounds like a headache, especially if something else is causing it.

 

Finally got around to dipping. Here's to something other than black to kill the chrome! I like how it's a close match to the wheels...

 

That's a great idea. Something different, subtle, and still awesome without being black!

 

That stance with those Ray10's looks amazing!

Now you need to do something with those chrome badges.

 

i am looking for them ray 10s in brushed copper
