Spray paint that big ol exhaust tip black - Switched for a dump tip from ATH
Rough Country color matched sport fenders took these off because they took away from clearance and added Rokbloks high clearance flaps. These are perfect for coverage on wider setups. May adapt fenders later but could only use due to mounting.

so I had found a really low pro bedside but it fell through due to vendor. With most bedsides at 5” high there just wasn’t enough clearance for gear. I bit the bullet and added:
Smartcap Adventure
Decked drawer
Decked 1500 slide on top

With all the weight this truck was looking dumpy in the rear. Got the :
Icon rear overland +600 .5” coils
Sits perfectly .5” higher in rear and didn’t look too bad even with a 8000# dump trailer.

I also added the Keko bed dust seal kit. Worked perfect with the DB and so far good with cap. Most of the dust gets in on the sides of the tailgate.

Need to install all of my Meso lights and get my bed geared up. The slide takes a lot of room but is really heavy duty and still has more room above it in the cap than I had under the diamondback with no slide.

I have full truck and smartcap racks coming from UpTop overland with their LED side lights. This thing is gonna be a tank.

Nice build. Curious since it seems that you do some legit off roading. How has your transmission held up? Are you getting a lot of overtemp warnings like I’m seeing others have on here?

I would send the invoice for the trans cooler straight to Toyota. I also enjoy my truck and don’t plan on dumping it but they need to figure it out with this transmission issue.
