2023 MGM TRD Off Road (mildly modded)

I tested out the Headstrong 3AAL over the weekend and they handled the 600 lb ATV pretty nicely.

 

Late to the party on this thread... really enjoying it since you're doing or have already done a lot of what I've done or am planning to do. Your rig looks great.

BTW, where did you buy the TRD bed decals? I know they're a lot of options online, but I especially like the ones you chose.

Keep up the great work!

 

Thank you. I bought them off Amazon. I was going to provide you with a link but they are no longer available. The brand was "Gold Hook" and they are Matte Black.

Edited: I did some looking and these should be the same ones:

Awesome, thanks so much.

It's like shopping at Costco. As soon as you find the best [insert any consumable here] in the world... they stop carrying it.

 

I lucked out in 2019 with 0.9% for 5 years. Why use mines when yours is almost free But yeah I feel ya. After 4 years, I'm about to drop $3k on Tires/Wheels/Shocks. aloha

 

That's a great rate that would tempt me to pay it out over time. When we bought my wifes car in late 2020, we financed at a decent rate but got the car for several thousand less due to financing but then paid car off within the first year.

When I bought this 2023, we preordered it and the price was the price. I didn't have $47k on hand so we borrowed some through Toyota.... on track to pay it off net month.

 

Thank you for this write up man! This is the exact suspension setup i am going with for my 23 TRD Sport and i have been looking all over for a good post with info and pics, and this is it! Great looking truck!

 

Thank you and your very welcome. Your appreciation makes it worth while. Let me know if you have any questions.

 

What does that ecgs bushing do ?

 

The ECGS bushing replaces the driver side needle bearing that's on the output side of the front diff. The OEM needle bearing has shown to be problematic in trucks with a little lift. Plenty of folks don't have this issue but plenty of folks do.

 

Enjoy this thread. I'd only add an OTT tune to your list And agree w/ WCT, it is the best mod....

 

Oh the irony....
NEW 4Runner owners can not even get these new wheel style now on their factory vehicles (or if they do they are lucky)... will the random covid hangover supply line crap ever end?

 

Thank you. I actually did a KDMax 10.0 myself via remote tune but apparently didn't list it.

What is WCT?

 

Wow, I had no idea. I believe I mentioned it earlier in this thread but I liked the newer wheels so much that I bought them before my truck even came in and swapped over to the new wheels at only 92 miles. I do like the previous 4Runner wheels but would be very disappointed if I had ordered a new 4rnr and they came with the old version.

 

!00%. The new style is more interesting/attractive. The older design looks more "layered" on top vs interlocking, if you will.

 

West Coast Taco - his channel.

 

Gotcha. Thanks

Agreed.

 

Just paid truck off and celebrating by adding an OEM TRD shift knob.

 

When you installed the new wheels and tires, did you purchase new TPMS sensors or did you use the ones from your stock wheels? If you put new ones on do you mind sharing the part number(s) of the sensors that fit the new wheels?
