LS6 Swap 2nd Gen Build + New Tundra

Oh. Guess I’ll be putting my rubber back in then.

 

I plan to put the carpet back in this truck and just trim around the cage. That’s what I did on mine.

 

How much were you looking to get for the Kings?

 

Yeah I’ve got the OEM rubber carpet thing that’s discontinued

 

Was thinking 5k for the kings and deavers together. They’re the 3.0IBP fronts and 3.0 2 tune bypass rears. Includes all hardware/bushings for the deavers and kings.

 

Here’s the lot of everything for sale. 6k takes everything you see

 

With all the engine issues I'm seeing with the new tundy I wouldn't touch anything in that department including the exhaust. Toyota is forking out tons of money and at some point they might want to point a finger and deny coverage for something simple as an exhaust. I've never seen that nor have I heard anything but just saying, I wouldn't want to be stuck with a short block r/r customer pay.

That B pillar looks headbanger ish.

 

Yeah I mean good news my truck isn’t affected, but you’re still right lol. Good news is I have lexuscare warranty and the homie hookup in the shop to just take care of it for me

B pillar tube is way in the back seat. Even with my tall ass seats will be mounted way forward of this (and truck owner). Wish this kit was available 5 years ago when I did my cage. Omitting a few tubes and making a few for this guy but overall, once main tubes are in place this puzzle fits very well and is thought out.

 

This kit is for sure the best option out there for cages for our trucks. I still daily mine so no cage at this time.

 

Why cant you daily a caged truck??

 

I second this. I daily the shit out of mine all summer long.

 

I don't believe that a cage in a truck is the safest for a daily driver. That Toyota built the truck with the maximum headroom to be the safest in an accident and building a cage makes that safe space much smaller putting your head closer to metal. My truck has a well built roll bar in the bed that will protect occupants in a roll over off-road accident. That combined with the front bumper that sits grille height. A t-bone accident on the street, in my opinion, would be bad with a cage and no helmet.

 

Can’t really agree here. Unless my seat tears off the mounts my head is less likely to hit something than in a stock truck with 3 point belts.

While Toyota did make a safe truck, they made it safe not taking into consideration massive modifications in suspension, tire size etc.

IMO all of the above greatly reduces safety as a whole on and off road.

 

And we remove the airbags.

 

I've been round and round on other threads about my cage beliefs so I'm not going to debate again. This is what I feel is safest for me and my family. 75% of any off road trip I take is on the highway.

 

What’s right for you is right for you.

 

I actually have more headroom with my cage than I did with the stock headliner. Regardless was just curious why you thought that way. To each his own.
