thought I would finally start build thread on my 2017 TRD offroad m/t.
Started as lease and I recently bought my lease out. So now mods start!
This will be my first build thread so bear with me any questions and I’ll answer to best of my ability need to get used to taking more photos.

Thanks guys more to come. i have my camburg uniball uppers. Waiting on my ads coil overs hopefully have them dec there being built 4 to 6 week lead time ordered them on first of nov. As soon as I have those they will get installed. So you guys know leveling the front for now and clearenceing for 33s that way when I lift rear 35s should fit no problem. Or aka more trimming. Still undecided on tubing front fender wells. Let me know what you guys think.

Got my rear shocks today and installed rides like a cloud all around now best investment was suspension. Nite and day difference. Still running stock pack and got rid of all roughness in rear. Not to mention let’s the stock leafs flex a lot more. Will say though now need some hydro bumps!???

What a huge upgrade, huh? I remember when I did the same with my 5100s and I couldn’t believe how much of a difference it made. I wasn’t expecting it to be much because I thought the 5100s were good to begin with. I was very wrong.
