Some PPF/ceramic combo, cat guard / body armor, tonneu cover

 

depend on the truck. lets say i got a brand new Tacoma TRD-Pro 4x4.

- Sliders $800
- Bed Rails for tent $400
- Hood lift support $85
- Remote Start module $250
- Aux-beam 8 gang switch panel $195
- Pod light $140
- Pol Light Bracket $60
- Flatiron Attic storage $50
- Tailgate Lock kit $125
- Rooftop tent $900

but if you get and SR-SR5

- Aux-beam 8 gang switch panel $195
- Pod light $140
- Pol Light Bracket $60
- Tailgate Lock kit $125
- Hood lift support $85

 

New tires and some rock sliders

 

Beer and ice, $3k, piled in the bed. Probably nothing else.

 

Adopt a puppy, and learn to like shed hair/slobbers in yur truck

 

where are you at? I am selling my 6112 5160 and block kit. Installed Late last November

 

Depends on the trim. I'm shooting for a pro so I don't have to do wheels and a lift again. $3k would be for added skids and a solid ceramic coating. Pretty sure that'd eat the budget.

 

The basics...

Mudguards
Floor mats
Door sill protectors
Bed lights
Bed mat
Window visors
Seat covers
Tonneau cover (or cap)
Side steps (or sliders)

Boring, but essential truck stuff.

 

Denver

 

I am in NY. Keep checking around the forum and Craigslist. I think I paid $550 new from a TW member.

 

I would regear it to 5.29 and get my ECU tuned. In fact, that’s what I did with my bone stock 2020 at 500 miles. No regrets!

 

I’ll sell you those tires with 13/32 tread for $800. I kept my F5s though

 

Probably Fox shocks, but the stock bilsteins aren’t bad.

 

For the Rav mirrors, did they come with BSM? I am considering buying them and wondering if it could even add BSM to my SR5.

 

Installing BSM is no small task, but doable. It is WAY more than just adding mirrors, though. Over on the Tundra forum a guy did it. Process may be different in a Taco, obviously, but this should give you an idea. https://www.tundras.com/threads/caseys-2021-lunar-rock-trd-pro-build.77317/page-11#post-2201253

 

Complete the skid plates Engine, transmission, transfer case, rear diff, and the A-arms, rock sliders for under 3k.

You will be amazed how often you scrape them, if you offroad.

I always armor before I lift. That's just me

EDIT: Please be advised, this is going to add about 200 to 400 pounds to your truck, so make sure you buy a tune as well.

 

I have done the following

265/75/16 Firestone Discover X/T
Seat covers front/back
Side steps

So I would add a 2-4 lift. Something that will handle new bumpers/winch

 

Thank for sharing. Looks way beyond what I am comfortable doing to my truck, especially just for BSM.
