    I'm ordering my 2016 TRD off-road and need to start prepping for modifications. I live in Utah so I'm out in the desert often, but also close to big technical trails. The truck needs to be capable of hauling 3 people and their gear for a week solid, as comfortably as possible while still being dependable.

    I'm off-roading through Mexico for a month in April so this build will have to happen fast. Product availability may have to play into my choices.

    I'm not sure who is even making 2016 products yet. help me out and tell me what you would use or who is already selling products.

    -I want the best mid travel setup practical, with bypasses upfront and hydro bumps.

    I'm thinking Total Chaos race series LCA and UCA along with ADS coilovers, and bypasses. OME Daker leaf springs with ADS shocks and bumps for the rear.

    -Protection I want to keep lightweight, I'll already be loaded down so every pound helps!

    -Front bumper I really like Pelfreybilt's plate aluminum look and its light.

    -Rear Bumper will require a swing out for spare tire. I've always been a big fan of CBI in this department.

    -Sliders. I'm not too sure what I like here. I know I like them unplated and fairly low profile.

    -Skids will be aluminum to shave weight. Bud built comes to mind but open to opinions.



    Thanks for all your input.

    How about just a list of vendors with 3rd gen already in production for suspension, and armor/protection.
