Wow! I’ve watched 40+ videos similar to this one and I’ve never seen anyone do all of the trimming and chopping before the lift was installed. Seems smarter to me. And the editing of this video is great too! Just enough to o be super interesting and informative but not so long that it’s just boring. Great work! Thank you.
That maniacal laugh at 35:08. Nothing beats lifting a full size rig. I had the same reaction after putting BP-51s on my Tundra. Looks good! Thanks for shedding light on Bush company bringing one piece shells to the states. I was looking for an excuse to not buy their South African counterparts bolt together option.
Been watching while building my 02’ Tundra. This channel puts together a truck like I put together my RC level, Scaled, crawl axial or RC4wd rigs or my own 02’😉🫡 All in all, while I have been subscribed to many of outdoor channels, this build is nice!!
Kevin that's a good way to gauge the clearance (use the belly) I would be way out of spec meaning still to low, lol. Abigail is so cute she's like give me the keys it's not fun with out the vroom! vroom! Kevin you shoulda been a plastic surgeon with all that cutting and no I don't want to be your first patient. Specially like the tool use, what is that? the hammering wrench method hmm what am I saying I've abused tools in the same way, it works doesn't it, lol. Tundra is looking TUFF! and your still not finished, can't wait for part 2. Thanks for Sharing...
You guys deserve good gear. Myself a 2012 rock warrior GFC guy, I’m so excited to watch this build. I hope the sponsors set ye all up. A joy to be a spectator.
Epic truck! Thanks for sharing your build. Watching somebody mechanically skilled is awesome thanks for the inspiration. That supercharger shot was cheeky bet it will be 🔥 get some!
Congrats on the new build. I test drove a 2 year old used 1794 model and was let down with how much of the interior was falling apart. Aside from that there’s nothing like a full size truck. Drove full size diesel trucks for 25 years and have been in a 4Runner, sequoia and now a Tacoma over the last 6 years and I am ready to go back to a full size truck.
Lookin good. Love new wheel color with the paint color. So glad you got rid of the chrome grille. Stuck out like a sore thumb throughout the whole video. Until the last shot. That TRD pro grille looks way better.
I did ceramic tint only on the windshield and front windows here in Utah. All black vehicle inside and out. Honestly am impressed it doesn't get nearly as hot as other even tan leather vehicles. I plan on doing the same with other vehicles in the future.
I love our Bush Company 270 max awning. It is a beast on our 2500 build. Both Barry and Dean were great to deal with as well. The Australians just do full size HD trucks so well.
I would recommend doing the hose clamps with shrink wrap around them for the remote reservoir. Used the fox provided clamps and had 2 of the bolts snap after a couple years. Thankfully caught them before the reservoirs fell, but it was a pain to remove the snapped bolts before giving up all together and going with hose clamps.
New to the channel, love the content so far, inspires me to want to start over landing! Not sure if it might be an editing-ism but it seems like a lot of the time when you’re torquing in your fasteners they click right away. You might already know this but if you’ve zipped on your fastener and go to torque it and it clicks right away it’s more than likely over torqued. You should always under tighten and get at least a little rotation out of your torque wrench. Hope this helps! I’m looking forward to exploring more of the content.
Great build and detailed demonstration. Need shim to bring that RF up 2/8, would be interesting to see the downward articulation increase on Fox with 35s.
I'm binging all your videos and appreciate your hard work into making these! I'm so interested in the canopy, can you please make a dedicated video on what you like/dislike etc? Information online seems limited on it and i'm definitely interested before purchasing another brand.
That escalated quickly! LOL. Loving the build so far. Thanks for taking us along. I couldn't get over how good that matte PPF looked. I'm sure it looks much better in person. I can't wait to see/hear your thought on the Magnuson. I have the TVS 2650 on mine and love it. Great job as always, looking forward to part II. 👊💪
The XPEL PPF turned out soooo good. It is definitely better in person. So excited to get this supercharger installed but I need some "before" testing too so it's killing me lol
Great looking rig so far!! I love it!! FYI, you might want to look at high angle CV boots. When I did the lift on my 1st gen, within 6 months, both front inner CV boots were split (brand new axles). Hindsight being 13/12, now I have to take it all back apart. 285/75's on my baby too. 😉 (Toytec lift with 700# Eibach springs, Bilstein 6100 series threaded body shocks, SPC UCA's, OEM LCA's, 333 Fab cam bolt delete, rear Deaver 3 pack add-a-leaf, Bilstein 5100's)
O. M. G. Nice alternative to new tundra or GX or LC. Really Badass tundra. That SC. Will be all I wait for now. I have a 2019LC200 and 2010LX570. Want to see how your SC does!
Could we possibly get a review on the canopy? I have a 2021 tundra and I think this can be will work out great for me and my family. Thanks for your time.
I have same truck 2019 TRD sport with same wheels size with +20 offset and fit perfectly no rubbing just took the front flaps off and some plastic mod with heat gun and no issues. Also got the RCI smart cap love it with modularity. I'm traveling with family of 5 and just about enough room but I do ground tent. Love yoir truck and got some ideas from you. Thanks
We need to introduce yourself to Dave @ Coach Builder before you start doing all this cutting and trimming. I didn’t do a chop and trimming until I went to 41 14 1/2 x 18 super swamper Irok radials… I’m amazed sitting here watching you cut with skinny 35s my wife’s 2017 with the 3 inch ready lift runs the 285 75 18 Ridge grapplers. And if I read your parts list right if you really went with a supercharger, you gonna be getting towed. Suspension, tires, wheels &topper. I have a four wheel camper type them on mine with 10 inches of lift and 41s on a 2016 tundra with 80,000 miles… most dependable truck I’ve ever owned, get a limited slip in the rear, put a locker put in the front 529 nitro gears… and then all the other stuff… See you in Alaska this year!
if you haven't already don't forget to put a transmission cooler on it! this year doesn't come with one and it's never a bad idea to have one, Mishimoto for my 2 cents.
Great build, your truck is very very nice. Looking into doing the same, but I don't want to loose the ability of opening the rear window on the Tundra, is there the ability on your truck canopy to make the window next to the rear tuck window fold down? So if you wanted to access your bed from the cab of the truck other than that small sliding window?
+18 offset sticks out like crazy and will rub everywhere. Method offers some +40s in the mr318. Much much better for suspension geometry and fitting larger tires.
+18 has been just right and doesn't even stick the tread outside the wheel well. +40 is factory offset and while it's great for slightly larger tires, contact with the UCA can become an issue.
@@LifestyleOverland I had 37x12.5 and 35x12.5, then I seen this really good comparison video on RUclips about the Offroad traction gained with the 11.5 vs 12.5 when aired down. So I gave them a shot and it works….
Wow badass and I love the name Grizz. Does the canopy open from the inside to where you can roll down the tundra back window and climb from the cab to the bed? Excited for this build! Supercharger sure will make it a beast.
Awesome truck man!! I got a 23 Nissan Titan Pro-4x!! I love my truck!! Hands down better then any Tundra!! To bad you didnt look at a Titan. I think you would have liked a Titan over your Tundra!!
Do you guys have a video of how you have outfitted and stocked the expedition voyager trailer? We just picked up ours and we would love to see how you guys have loaded it up.
Mostly taught myself while building a VW bug from ages 15-18. Made a lot of mistakes and learned from them. With the Internet these days though, you can learn just about anything. 👍
I'm about to put a leveling kit on my 2011 Sierra so I can hopefully fit some 35's/skinny under without having to use a lift kit. I'm not completely set on 35's but I think I can make it work. These are the vlogs I like most. Expell? Link please? I didn't check before commenting......

Nice build! Following all your 2nd gen mods as I'll be building one soon :)
Awesome! Looking forward to seeing what you do 👍
@@TinkerersAdventure I can't wait to hear your thoughts on Lifted Fullsize Rigs, with a much needed brakeover angle.
Would love to see you two collab!!!
Should i go for a 2010 tundra 4x4 grade for live in overlanding? Would i be able to fund all the upgrades i need for it? @@LifestyleOverland

Min 13:00 , my stock tundra platinum 2019 34’s with stock plastic running boards, made it thru trails that ran 4” lifts and 37’s tires jeeps
That maniacal laugh at 35:08. Nothing beats lifting a full size rig. I had the same reaction after putting BP-51s on my Tundra. Looks good!
Thanks for shedding light on Bush company bringing one piece shells to the states. I was looking for an excuse to not buy their South African counterparts bolt together option.
Dang it turned out great! Looking forward to seeing more of this truck!
Nice build;) we drove to DC from NC to purchase the last 21 on the east coast and love it. Thanks for sharing
Love it! My dad had the previous gen with the 5.7, and it was awesome. It'll treat you well!
Already in love! 🤩
@LifestyleOverland I was too as soon as I saw you showed it. I love Tundras! I would have one right now if I could afford it😂
I work in a Goodyear warehouse, so I experience that new tire smell all the time!
Congratulations on your new travel car project! May it bring even more joy and impressions in your new travels!
Great Video! I am loving this series of videos. Can't wait for the next one. Makes me want to get a Tundra.
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along.
Tundra is looking good!
Glad to see the chrome is going away at the very end of the video.

I'm really impressed that you knew both what you wanted to do and how to do it!!!😃

Nice Haircut, Definitely matchs the good looking truck!
Hello!! Excellent video, it's really cool to see the whole transformation. Congratulations on the care!
Impresionante trabajo Kevyn!
Looking great so far, looking forward to the complete build!
Thanks!
Don't do the balance beads! Get your tires properly balanced. You'll thank me later!!

Before I wash mine, I lock it to stop the beeping.
Love the build!
Love where the build's going!
Sweet! This is my next truck!
Man, it's looking SO good! That PPF is 🤌. Can't wait to see it in action on the trail. 👊
Damn, you're good Kevin!
Aw, shucks ☺️
Love it! Cant wait to see it in its natural habitat! Keep up the good work!

Welcome to the channel 👍 Yep, it's all sped up for flow of the video. Great point though for those who don't know.
Fun to watch you having fun building it.
Tint will work but the roof of that thing will benefit from heat shield/sound deadening. I did that to mine and it made a huge difference.
Yep, basically the same process for 37’s 😉 and good for you, ditching that front swaybar 👌🏼
Great build and detailed demonstration. Need shim to bring that RF up 2/8, would be interesting to see the downward articulation increase on Fox with 35s.
AMAZINGGGGG. Cant wait to see more of it.
Thanks!
As a 2021 trd pro owner, a bit of me wishes I had gone 1794. I just love the interior.
Amen to what he said about having power tools,
Love this! Easy mod is adding a rear Diff breather extension. I routed mine with a hose up behind my taillight.
That's where I moved mine👍
I'm binging all your videos and appreciate your hard work into making these! I'm so interested in the canopy, can you please make a dedicated video on what you like/dislike etc? Information online seems limited on it and i'm definitely interested before purchasing another brand.
I love the Tundra XK50. Looks great
The Tundra is really starting to come together!
I left the cab mount open on my Tacoma. It’s been about 3 years with no issues.
Love the name of your truck, "Grizz"!

Definitely, I've got a long list of reviews I need to cover soon. Also have another stage of build to cover
@@LifestyleOverland awesome thank you, I actually reached out to bus company, but they’re not expecting to get a new shipment in until almost March
Yeah, we might have sent a swarm of folks their way 😂
You looked like a kid in a candy store right after installing the canopy. Looks awesome!
Time to upgrade the brakes as well!!! 💪🏻

You're welcome! Thanks for tuning in 👍
You’re moving around pretty good in that boot.
Hope you’re healing up.
So you liked Keith's set up. Very nice.
Please, please, please encourage Bush Company to import those toppers to Canada
AT Overland is still the best system on the market
Ace the Toller!!!! We had a Toller for 14yrs.
cant wait for that supercharger installation
Hard no
I really like my RCI skids
I cannot recommend the TRD exhaust enough. She sounds so much better and no drone.

👍 waiting for videos with Tundra
So excited!
If you wanted to completely avoid the CMC you could have changed your offset and fit a 35'' tire. Its been done many times.
I moved to a 35x11.5 and love it
What did you have before?

@@LifestyleOverland
The quality and how they are built. The 5.6 V8 is a much stronger and reliable then the 5.7 V8!!
Hmm, I haven't seen that data. How does the power compare?
Curious on why you would bmc now at stock height versus doing suspension first
