2022 Trail Edition Owners Thread

Just wanted to stop by and say thank you. Thanks to your information I was able to finished my fog lights project.

 

Link to your install if you have one. Also was your Trail pre-wired? My friend has a Trail and I tried searching but nothing solid.

 

My Trail was pre-wired. I don't have a link. Batcat 420 put out a list and I just purchased the items on the list that I needed. The Trail should be pre-wired I'll see if I can send a photo later. These were the items that I bought: OEM LIST 9008087026 Fog light Relay, 8211404010 Wire Engine Room, No4(Note Toyota will say is wrong but is the right part) 9016750063 you will need two tapping screws for the fog lights. The fog lights are up to you, whatever brand you like, color or shape. I decided to go with the same ones that the TRD Pro have.

 

So it can work as an OEM you also going to need to swap the stalk with this other one; 841400R010 switch assembly headlamp dimmer. The photo shows where the wires are located Teal and White. You can find either here or on You Tube the how to install it.

 

Thank you, I will pass it on.

 

Last piece of the puzzle arrived today. Will be throwing in a remote start at the same time.

 

You think that is an improvement, just wait until you drive one with a KDMAX Pro 9 tune. My friend has a new Trail and he thought the same thing. It's an entirely different truck, way more power down low, better shifts being more crisp and the fuel mileage is better too.

 

Interesting!

Before I bought the truck I had always planned for a KDMax tune, and now that I’m in FL for the winter there is a tuner literally 30 mins from me.

The improved mileage I do believe, right now I get good mileage but to do so I have to drive in a pretty boring manner. Feels like the low end of the gear range needs to be spicier to get the bronze-rimmed brick up to speed sooner.

Hmmmmm, decisions, decisions…

If I end up doing it I’ll report back for the fellow trail enthusiasts.

 

Considering the cost for 20 plus horsepower that's cheap. Cold air kits are $300 plus, exhaust $300 plus headers $600 plus, mid pipe $500 plus and each show very little in gains if none at all and for the tune that's cheap power with real benefits!

 

Not to mention the work/installation for any of those upgrades

 

Ooo, nice. Report back on the remote start!

 

Has anyone put bigger tires keeping the OEM lift without rubbing?

 

Any one update their shocks on
Trail Edition?

 

I'd like to know what the options here are too, I don't want a lift really it's not needed for my use but if there are upgrades to be had in the suspension I'm interested!

 

Update tires and shocks on your Trail Edition?

Yes...

BF Goodrich LT265/75R16 All Terrain T/A KO2 and Bilstein B8 5100 ride height adjustable shock absorber

$130 24-263108 Bilstein 24263108 Shock Absorber

$91 24-186728 5100 Series Shock Absorber

24-186728.

Coil Spring strut spacers and Pro Comp Rear add-a-leaf set 13120 and Rear Block kit

No Rub with these tires and truck has a 2" lift parts and labor out the door was $2920.58 at 4wheelparts Albuquerque NM.

 

Does the Trail Edition not have remote start? I don't see the option in the app. I have a 2023 model year

 

No, the Trail Edition comes with the traditional key. No remote start.

 

I think the SR5 gets 'push button start' for 2023.

 

Thanks, and this is with the stock lift?

 

If the 2023 TE came with it, I don't know. 2022 TE had a key. I would do the test which is hit your lock on the fob 3 times and hold if it starts then you have it. There is a You Tube video.
