New to the forum, you guys saved my ass when I was looking for torque specs for installing my Icon Stage 3. This was the only place I could find with a searchable pdf document. Great resource. Just got upgraded from Lurker!
My 2017 TRD OR AC was the dealer's parts truck. Bought it pre COVID, and it only had 17K miles. Now has 24K miles (still new by Toyota standards).
I started occasionally off-roading over the last few years, a few weeks each year with other people's rigs, and did an overland trip to the Grand Canyon in April of this year. After that I got the bug and joined my local Montana Toyota Land Cruiser Association (TLCA) Chapter in May. We do trail rides every month and I am now the Public Lands Coordinator for 406 Cruisers.
Order of completed mods/purchases:
1) Dealer replaced carpet - parts truck well smelled like a parts truck, oil spills, etc.
2) TRD Pro Grill from R4T.
3) DIY rear deck plate (got the idea from Goose Gear).
4) Rear seat Jackers from TW
5) Ridgeline Truck Bed Tent, Nemo Tensor ultralight air mattress/pad, and Nemo 45 Forte sleeping bag all from REI
6) Element Fire Extinguisher (mounted inside glove box door)
7) Artec Venture 3G low profile steel bumper
8) Icon Stage 3 lift kit with AAL
9) Spiker Engineering Hood Struts
10) Rigid Industries SR PRO 30" combo LED Lightbar (integrated into the Artec bumper)
And lots of gear: Viar 4000P, Recovery ring, soft shackles, Agency 6 hitch recovery shackle block, ARB TRED recovery boards, ARB Tree Hugger, etc.)
Future mods/projects (top ten in install order):
1) Rear dif breather mod/relocation (this weekend)
2) Tailgate flat panel aka Mountain Hatch/Snail Armor (Oct 2021)
3) Yaesu FT-60R HAM Radio (on order) and mount (Oct 2021)
4) HAM Radio License (winter 2021)
5) LED replacement bulbs for interior lighting (winter 2021)
6) 33" BFG KO2's or Nitto's (spring 2022)
7) White Knuckle Off-Road or C4 Fab rock sliders (spring 2022)
8) Front seat replacement TBD (still researching)
9) Indeflate up/down air system with dual ARB compressor (spring 2022)
10) High clearance rear steel bumper (still researching)
