CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT i WOULD NEED TO DO TO UPGRADE MY SR5 TUNDRA 08 TO A TRD OFF ROAD.

Change your shocks to Bilstein shocks, change your tow loops to tow hooks, add some fog lights and a switch, and slap a couple of stickers on the bed.

You could buy better shocks than the Bilsteins if you wanted them.

So....

Go To Ebay - TRD Stickers $35, custom colors available. I like the 'All Terrain' versions, a little more custom looking.

Don't worry about the hooks, the loops are already there (on 4x4 models anyway) and very sturdy. If you need them, head to the junk yard, get a pair cheap.

Pick-up a set of nice wheels/tires. Go a little bigger than 275's, a little lift might be nice.

Next - Go with upgraded aftermarket shocks, less money and better performance.

Then - Find some nice fog or long range lights from PIAA or similar, mount them in the stock holes.

Wah Lah - you have a better than TRD set-up, functions and looks great.

Wait that's what I want too!

What is the "off road tuned suspension" ?

Are they just referring to the Bilstein shocks?


...Glenn

As far as I know, yes.

Looking at part numbers, the springs are different also, front and rear

THESE PIAA LIGHT JUST FIT.
GOT THEM FROM ADVANCE AUTO PARTS. $200...
THEY ARE AWESOME. THE FIRST SET OF FOG LIGHTS I CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHEN THEY ARE ON WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. WICKED BRIGHT, BUT NOT $50 EITHER.

Thanks everyone... Also, dose the TRD package give the truck more clearnce?

Should be same ride height with or without TRD.
