Swannybruhs 16 TRDOR 4X4 Build-ish thingy....

[Swannybruh]

Bought my 16 off the lot in Oahu, Hawaii in June of 16. It stayed stock for a while since shipping to Hawaii is outrageous. Once I moved back to the mainland (Florida), I started my mild, weekender build.

Bone stock, wheeling at Kaena Point, Oahu.

Suspension: OME Nitro Chargers F&R (Soft) 886 coils, Dakar Standard Leaf Pack, SPC UCAs, SpiderTrax Spacers, 285/75/16 Falken WPs, CBI T3 Full Hoop Bumper. I've got a 9k winch that's going in too.

Mainly just mild off road driving and towing our family camper.

Love that full hoop bumper. So clean. ?

 

[Rob Daman]

welcome

I love the stance your truck has. Welcome to T3G.

 

[Nursetaco]

How are the spacers holding up?

 

[Jay]

Steel or aluminum bumper?

Thanks brother!

How are the spacers holding up?

Very well as of 5k miles. About to rotate the tires and see. I'll let you know.

Steel or aluminum bumper?

Steel. I couldn't justify (convince the Chief of Marital Operations) the price difference between the two.

 

[Jay]

I would go steel over aluminum. If you’re that concerned with weight you should’ve bought a Miata

Added a 9k winch today and cleaned up those horrible cuts from the original install and added trim to them.

Great looking truck! What kind of edge trim did you use?

 

[Swannybruh]

I got the 3M door trim at Napa. It was cheap.

Good to know, thanks!

Installed an UltraGaugeMX 1.3 to monitor the vitals, especially the Trans temps while towing..

I’m looking to add some height to my TRD off-road and are looking at OME. I was wondering if they are comparable to the stock Bilstiens or even better as far as ride goes on and off road. Also what kind of lift did you get out of it?

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you! As far as ride quality.. it rides like a caddy even with the 886 springs. I had 5100 on my first gen tacoma, they were nice, but the stem is very thing for a bigger truck like 2nd and 3rd gens. The OME stems are way bigger. I went with OME NitroChargers (soft valving) 886 springs NC if my bumper and winch, Dakar Standard leaf pack in the rear and SPC uppers.. I'm love the ride.. just with the front coil over were adjustable.

 

[Bird dog]

Nice build.

 

[Swannybruh]

Nice build.

Thanks man! It's about to get some "new to me" coilovers and exhaust..
