MaverickT883's Build/Adventure Thread

Waiting on parts currently.

 

Updates as of 04/13/2022

• ARB snorkel installed
• Broke my tufskins mudflaps, ran without, dinged the shit out of my paint, got some rekgen xl.
  
• Sold after market wheels, went back to stock. Fuel mileage and more highway driving for now, as well as the aftermarket rims needed new tires (why buy new tires if I can just use ones I have)
• Flashed back to OVtune as I found the valley runner tune dropped my mpg a little and I preferred the low end feel of OVtune.
• Truck is at 56k Km and has had no issues what so ever. Still love it.

 

Installed my Diode Dynamics SS3 Pro Amber fog lights today (thanks @TegoTaco !). OMG. What a freaking difference! SO bright and man do they ever look awesome. They feel higher quality than the OEM lights too.

 

2 quick beauty shots for you all

 

Update!
Truck is at 71k km, has been offroad many a time and has done some trails that it had no right to do stock, lol.

What's changed?

• Sold- Bakflip MX4 Tonneau. Found it limited storage when it was closed too much, and wasn't really that water tight. Dented super easy, and popped open whilst off-roading. Not impressed for a 1400 dollar tonneau. Don't recommend.
• Ordered- Cali Raised Sliders. They'll be here... uhhh... sometime. I dented one of my rockers on a misadventure and decided it was time.
• Will be ordering/currently on the hunt for- A soft topper. They hold value super well so if I hate it, I'll sell it. I want something that gives me more storage and allows for me to still put my motocross bike in the bed. Camping back there is definitely a +

Stuff I've been surprised by?

• Stock tires. I've gotten stuck a grand total of once, and even then I wiggled my way out. They're better than they get credit for.
• Fuel economy. Been getting 20+ MPG everywhere. Love it.

 

Besttop Softtopper installed. Love it.

 

Picked it up in Montreal.

 

Built myself a mini shelf in the back seat. Adds some utility and retains the seats .

 

Installed Daystar cradles in prep for a lift.

 

Truck hit 80k Km on the way to a wheeling trip with the guys at TEC!

 

Great time out.

 

Hey any long term thoughts on the Toyo G3 ice tires? Price point is fantastic.

 

Absolutely love them. Have about 35k Km on mine and I’m at 11/32 on the tread. Wearing well and still fabulous in the snow. Actually putting them on this weekend, lol.

 

Snows on.

 

Phew! Lots done as of late.

• Greenlane off-road bed bars- on
• Roof top tent- on
• 88k oil change- done.

Still love this truck so much!

 

My 33s have arrived as well- they’ll be going on in march.

 

Love these rims, what are they off of?

 

Believe it or not, these are OEM Toyota spares. Same part number as the TRD OR spare wheel.

 

That's awesome may have to order some, thanks!
