    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    Several posts ago, I mentioned I would be using the DAC shell enclosure on the back of the Tundra/shell for some camping trips, but I didn't have any photographs. here are a few. The instructions have the bottom of the enclosure go over the tailgate, but I've actually found that it fits...

    Camera Source backup camera kit for 2018 Tundra

    I've had some questions about why I went with the Camera Source option, and not simply just re-position the factory camera/harness. Well, simple answer is, I tried...I pulled out the camera and the corresponding wiring. The first option was to use the relocation bracket sent by P&P...

    Camera Source backup camera kit for 2018 Tundra

    I have been in the process of making additions to my Tundra since acquiring it in 2018. One of the "upgrades" was the installation of a P&P Engineering rear bumper with dual swing outs. The only problem was the spare tire, when mounted, blocks the rear camera. P&P had included a camera...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    So I got to it today. The removal of the stock hitch and bumper is pretty straight forward, and there are some really good YouTube videos out there so I didn't really go for the pictorial "how to" on that part. A few plugs needed to be removed which included the trailer plug, a couple of main...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    Thanks. I'm having fun with the build. I was trying to stay away from any cutting if possible. On my Tacoma, I fit a 285/75r16 in the factory spare location by taking a small sledge to the retaining "wings". I also chose to wrap the exhaust with some heat shield because the tire was very...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    I'm not interested in turning the Tundra into a rock crawler, or "monster" truck, but I've been considering going a size or so bigger for my tires for some time, and, for a few reasons, going to an E rated one over the D rated one I currently have. As the need for new tires draws nearer it...

    Tundra Crewmax and Expedition One

    I had people pull up beside me on the freeway giving me the thumbs up (yes it was their thumb...), and I even had a few guys follow me for miles until I stopped to ask me questions about the setup.

    Tundra Crewmax and Expedition One

    I was able to get to it through that small access panel on the driver's side on top of the grill (when the hood is open), but it took a little contortion. My plan was to cut a small portion of the grill fins in the lower corner and make a small panel, but then I decided to go to the ARB so I...

    Tundra Crewmax and Expedition One

    I'm assuming that's the SSO that you bought from me. I have had nothing but luck with them - I put one of their front slimline bumpers on my 4Runner as well - but I'm happy with the ARB Summit bar I did on the Tundra. I've had good luck with questions and answers in Exp-One, and I like their...

    Tundra Crewmax and Expedition One

    Happy with the setup? There are limited options for a swing out bumper for the Tundra (right now I've only found 2 - Exp-One being one of them ). I talked to CBI, but they're dragging their feet. It seems like their bread and butter is the Tacoma and 4Runner so it seems they are in no rush...

    Tundra Crewmax and Expedition One

    Did you have any progress on the sensors? I've talked with Expedition One a few times, and they provided a few explanations why they don't put them on the Tundra bumper. The first was installation locations were not conducive with proper working of the sensors themselves, and the second...

    So here's the comparison shot.

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    So far impressed with how the bumper turned out. This angle makes it look like it sticks out a considerable distance. But a little more of a side profile shows it is not that bad. The panels in front of the wheel well are removable, allowing for access to the additional lights mounted in...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    Whenever you embark on a project, you must know there will be trying times. Most of those times are self induced... Previously, I mentioned how the instructions for the winch installation indicated you needed to rotate the gear box 72 degrees to get the handle in the correct location for easy...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    Well, the ARB bumper is on. The install took a little longer than I had planned as I had to remove the SSO Slimline bumper first. As I had already done much of the same OEM parts removal for the SSO Slimline bumper, I was able to jump ahead in the ARB instructions a little. The...

    SOLD Southern Style Offroad Slimline bumper for Tundra

    Yes on the fitment. It is for 2014+ years of the Tundra. If you can get something arranged, I would have no issue with getting it wrapped up and protected for shipping. I could work a little on the bumper price, but that would be the best I could do.

    SOLD Southern Style Offroad Slimline bumper for Tundra

    I am selling my SSO Slimline bumper which was fitted onto my 2018 Toyota Tundra. The bumper has the 30" cutout for a single row light bar, a crossbar, shackle/tow points, and the opening for the winch. I've had the bumper for a little over a year, and it is in great shape. I am only...

    2018 Toyota Tundra Double Cab build

    Well, I made the order, and, a week or so later, it came... There are a few things in the instructions that area a little daunting, but no more than the install of the CBI rear bumper on my 4runner, so I think I'll be fine. As expected the fit and finish on the bumper is exceptional. Many...
