My Not-So-Built 2013 DCLB TRD Sport

Love the Sema wheels in bronze. Did your oe TPMS and lugs transfer over?

 

They would have if I kept them, but I went ahead and bought new ones with metal stems. I went with a set of Autel’s and purchased a programming tool to clone the old ones that were still stored in the ECU.

 

They'd look great on MGM too.

 

Love the headlights and fog light Jeff. Truck looks great.

 

Thank you! I’m loving the lighting upgrades, just need to work out the kinks with the headlights. They came with no installation instructions and the turn signals are hyper blinking. Can’t figure it out. I ordered some resistors so we’ll see if that fixes it. In all the reviews I read about them nobody ever mentioned needing them, so we’ll see.

I’m stoked to get the 5100s and Eibachs on. Hopefully this week.

 

It took me a few days to get the 5100s+Eibachs installed but I finally finished up today. Compressing those stiffer Eibachs with my janky little spring compressors was super sketchy, so I stopped and dropped the shocks off at a shop to assemble. Loving the new stance; it's sitting pretty dang close to level now. The ride is MUCH better than the 3rd gen OR suspension was. A tad stiffer but still very comfortable, and definitely feels stickier.

Also fixed the hyperblinking turn signals I was getting after installing the AlphaRex headlights. All it took was adding a pair of resistors to my tail lights and now we're all systems go.

I noticed that damn near every photo I've posted so far has been in the same spot of my driveway, so this time I ventured out for you guys.

 

Changed out the last bit of OEM lighting with this Amazon find. Smoked LED side mirror signals. Love that they’re sequential; they’re perfectly in sync with the sequential signals on my AlphaRex headlights. It’s the little things!

Also had to throw on a diff drop and carrier bearing drop to try to resolve the expected pesky driveline vibes I got after installing the Eibachs. They definitely helped but there’s still a little bit there. I can live with it.
