    Hello all,

    So as most i didnt think id be make a build thread but it seems like it will only help me with my build as I seem to get stuck on the sheer volume of information on TW.

    To start of my truck is a 2016 DCSB OR in Quicksand (obviously). This is the first truck I have ever owned. I bought it for many reasons, ive only ever owned cars used ones at that so i wanted aomething no one else has ever owned. I wanted a truck because i found myself in situations where a car couldnt haul everything i needed. I also went all out because every car ive ever owned had always been bare bones, no bells or whistles as they say. Thats why i went top of the line TRD OR 4X4. Now on to the build.

    This is my truck the day I picked her up.

    This is after id done a couple of things to it. Im not a big plasti dip fan so i swotched out the grill with a T-Rex upper class grill. The reasoning for this was to rid myself of the ugly chrome monstrosity toyota felt the need to place on the front of this truck. I also have plans on fitting a light bar behind it at aome point with the fine mesh patteren of the grill the light should have no problem lighting the road. As you can also see i have a bug guard on the front. This was more of a superficial mod because although i love the color of this truck the black helps break it up a little. I also have 20% Ceramic tint all the way around as well as 5 inch strip across the front window.

    This would be my CBI overland bed rack. I ditched my Extang bed cover for this because the bed rack will suit my needs better. The rack provides me with more storage options as well as a place for my roof rop tent I will be getting in the future.

    I also have Mobtown sliders en route and when i get and powder coat them i will also post thos pictures. Stay tuned....

    The OME BP 51s have been installed and have about 200 miles on them, they really smooth the ride out. The lifthe is around 2 and a half inches...I kept them at factory settings

    did you measure truck before lift, i talked to Arb, because i was concerned with some other measurements on TW, people were getting 3" or more. The tech from ARB said the kits ship adjusted for heavy load (ex front bumper and winch) and per the manual, they should be adjusted to get the 2.5 inch, which beside giving more droop, will also ride better according to him. Also the 3rd leaf would have to be removed from Dakar pack.
