Who needs money? New shoes, suspension and bike racks

I figured why not just get it all done at once and worry about eating later! Plus my friend has an off road shop so he hooked me up on the parts and installation as well as cutting the crap out of the front for the 285/70/17 tires. The wheels almost match the paint exactly (Method 314 Gloss Titanium).

 

Looks good

 

Those wheels look so clean. Any more pictures in brighter light? I have an MGM 3rd gen, and am very interested in the Method 314s or RRW RR6-H's in gray or black

 

Eating is over-rated.

Looking good!

 

Great looking truck!

 

nice, now rub off those stupid stickers and badging, grey that grill sombrero and FTLOC, tint those front windows...

 

I was actually going to black out the grille badge but am torn after seeing one today that didn't look to good. The badges will be getting a grey vinyl treatment assuming I don't get too pissed off putting all the letters on and if I don't like it they might just go away. Window tint will be coming soon as well.

 

I was originally going to get the RR6-H until they were out of stock everywhere and then I saw the ugly lip they have if you don't use the optional bead lock ring so I went with the Methods. Plus my friend is a dealer so he got them for me along with the tires and shocks etc.

nice wheels! I am looking at the rr6-h or the method 314 and you might have sold me on these wheels. Those wheels are a 0 offset right?
Stupid question but are the stock wheels 0 offset?

 

Yes they are 0 offset. The stock ones are +30.

gray grille badge to match, delete all other badging/stickers

 

So can you raise and lower it somehow? Looks like hydraulics? Im a noob.

 

In the front you can turn the coil on the threads to adjust the height. The back is fixed though and what you are seeing are the remote reservoirs.

 

Nice setup!

What did you "cut the crap out of" in the front to fit those tires?

 

Not sure what to call it but the bulge area behind the rear tire which encases the body mount (cut out the bulge and welded in a flat plate) and also some of the metal from the rear inner fender. We also trimmed the fender flare a little and pushed the plastic inner fender in the front further up and reattached it. You would think Toyota would design these trucks knowing people are going to add bigger tires!

 

How much lift do you have? And how much poke do you get?

 

Looks good! Definitely some tint on the front widows/windshield and I even like sliders/steps on a long bed. Good looking truck though!
