    No I never did get a quote. I think I'm okay with the chrome for now, I ordered the color matched grille though. That should arrive Monday and I get my window deflectors today!

    Do you think since my truck is an access cab, I would be nose high with eibachs? Your truck is a little heavier than mine. I talked to a guy at toytec who suggested I use OME 883's with my factory shocks.

    You are probably right about that, Your truck will be a tad bit more nose high then mine. You may want to consider a softer spring like the OME883.

    Freaking awesome setup!!!
    How was the ride with the kings compared with stock and/or eibach/5100 combo? Do they worth the extra money?

    The King's are amazing off-road the only thing holding me back was the rear end, due to using long shocks and no lift (yet). On road they are stiffer but a different kind of stiff, they soak all the bumps well and the truck corners/drives more "stable" in my opinion.

    I love them and for me it was worth the extra coin.

    Thanks. That's funny I was looking at your build a couple days ago, looking forward to seeing the outcome.

    I feel like this progression took 1 day because it looks like you're wearing the same clothes on the Indian Truck Trail as you were the day you bought the truck haha. Great build though man! My 2013 Pyrite TRD Sport wants to grow up to be like yours one day

    Great Build man! Im wanting to build my 13' Pyrite kind of like yours. I like the SR8 wheels too. I'll run stock 16's and wheel spacers for now.
    I was wondering if you sold the canopy? or just storing it? I just got a sugtop I found on craigslist and love it. I think these trucks look great with or without a canopy. :)

    Thanks!
    I'm currently trying to sell it , been sitting on some 2x4s in my garage.

    I really did like it but it was scraping my paint to bare metal under the bedside "caps",I'm attributing this to my aggressive driving off-road. So I guess it didn't fit my "style".

    Thats a bummer about the canopy. My SnugTop fits great. I hope i dont have any problems with it.
    Being a carpenter. Its great being able to keep tools dry and secure. :)
