2021 Toyota Offroad

I just traded out my baby since I was 16 (2004 offroad) for the 2021 offroad and I am in LOVE! I had a couple questions for you guys..

1st: I’ve been getting mixed answers from people I’ve talked to about what warrantees (if any) I void if I lift and put tires on the new one?

2nd: What mods do yall think I should look at doing first?

I really like the steel bumper and winch set up I had on my 04 but I am yet to find any good looking ones for 2021’s

Thanks in advance

 

Congratulations on your new Tacoma, enjoy the mod itch.

 

Lift with warranty is gonna be hit or miss, technically under law it does not void the warranty and any issues should still be honored unless the dealer can prove that the lift caused the problem / needed repair. Now depending on your mechanical knowledge and your dealer / service advisor you can either never have an issue with anything that creeps up or have to fight or be denied any claims, its really hit or miss. For instance my 15 I had a 3'' coilover lift, had a front diff seal leak, service advisor and me were chill, warrantied no questions asked. My 16 after moving to another state had the dreaded rear diff leak and hum, initial dealer tried to deny the claim citing my 265/75 KO2s as the cause (even after me explaining mechanically how that made zero sense, ended up going to different dealer for claim).

Congrats and nice choice in color and trim.

 

Thank you very much for the information I appreciate it

 

No prob!

 

Congrats on your new toy - expect it will serve you well. Is that green or MGM (I'm somewhat color blind)?
Does NC not require a front license tag? Rumor has it that CT DOES require one although I've never experienced an issue with LE.
Watch the mod itch. I picked up my '21 TRD OR AC MGM just about a month ago after deciding to retire my '06. I'm trying to adjust to the new technology before I consider any major mod. I'll be doing the (reversible) aesthetic stuff first, and putting on a few K miles just to be sure there are no major issues (don't expect any, but...).
I want to learn what my stock truck can do before I can determine IF it needs any significant mods. My off road needs don't involve rock crawling or climbing slopes in the Rockies.
That's just me. A cranky old fart with a love of Tacos and no desire to own a monster mall crawler.

 

If the lift is dealer installed then u have a warranty threw that dealer only . As far as bumpers plenty of treads here on that subject . Gratzs on the new truck . I really like that bumper on the old one looks good .

 

They call the color “Army Green” but its just an olive drab.. disgusting name for a color if ya ask me! (Simper Fidelis)

I also just got a book in the mail last week from Extreme Terrain with a bunch of aesthetic mods to look at (Bumpers, lift kits, lights, bed covers exc). Going to look more into mods once I get my other truck sold.
