Full set of 5 RW wheels and new KO2s. 34 10.5 17.

Changed front row hooks to the tundra version and painted safety red like the come up winch hook.

BTU, that's what I want mine to look like when it finally grows up! Great looking truck!

 

[Willy beamin]

Looks great BTU

 

[BTUMAN]

Yes.

I assume you have a thread on the lockers? Electric? Do tell. Love the old factory switch.

No thread. Just ARB front and rear lockers installed by Slee. The switch was their special touch as they do everything first class.

Here is a better pic of wheels and tires

Early birthday present... My wife called Slee and actually ADDED to my order!

Now I'm getting an ARB compressor and ARB rear locker as well.

It's at Slee now...absolutely cannot wait to get it back.

33" Nitto Trail Grapplers, 2" OME lift, Slee sliders, ARB skid plates, ARB front and rear bumpers, winch with synthetic line, tire swing out, Safari snorkel.

And now I can't even afford gas to drive it

would you mind posting a pic of your ARB compressor and its mounting place on the rig?
thank you

 

[mooseknuckles]

I know the message was not directed at me Willy but I saw your post and was in the garage so I snapped a shot for you.

 

[Willy beamin]

Thank you. Exactly what I was wanting.

 

[Willy beamin]

have you had any experience airing up your 35's with that unit? if so how low did you drop the air pressure to and about how long did it take to air them back up to (?) pressure.
thank you

Well after a little more than four weeks of waiting, look what's finally showed up



Just waiting for the rear shocks now...

I'm just afraid this is going to cut into my valuable time this weekend!!



I have been tinkering on my second battery too. All brackets are fabbed up and ready for paint and install. The second battery is a little higher than the main because I've built an area below the battery to house the solid state charging relay:

Nice! How much was this set up? Comparable to kings and foxes?

 

[Willy beamin]

Just look on trdparts4u.com. It's on there in 4 different level packages/kits

@Willy beamin -just saw this, let me know if you want any more pictures. I have 33" tires and I've aired them all down twice now to ~20 psi, and it takes 3-4 minutes per tire to get them back up to 35-40psi.

So far the compressor has been outstanding. I did buy a different attachment for the hose that has the pressure gauge inline with the fill attachment to save time.

Somewhat related: I read previously that someone said the tire pressure monitoring system in the 200 doesn't have a consistent layout of the 5 tires on the top to bottom display. Not sure that's true--every time I've aired down so far, my 2nd tire down on the list shows normal tire pressure (my spare), while the rest reflect the lower pressures. I think that even though the tire positions are not labeled on the display, they may be in the same order all the time.

Also, my compressor is mounted at the front passenger side corner of the engine bay. Yes I know it's dirty! Still have to clean up from this last weekends antics...

 

[Willy beamin]

good and dirty...attaboy

Nope. Rotate all 5 and what was your spare will show up somewhere else.

Every time I rotate my tires I purposely overinflate one tire at a time and note the position on the TPMS display. A card with this info is kept in the DS sun visor so I know which one is the problem should it ever show low.
