I moved my rims, mud flaps, custom floor mats, seat covers, swing out tool boxes, and Stampede front bug guard from my 2014 1500 to my new 2019 Classic. Just installed Westin 4” Oval Step Boards and Stampede window visors with no problems. I have yet to run across any Gen 4 accessories that don’t fit the 2019 Classic. I would have been buying all new stuff if I’d gotten the Gen 5 2019.

The only thing that didn’t transfer smoothly was the crossover toolbox. Not enough room on the sides to use the no-drill mounts. But this is because the plastic bed rail cap is wider than the one on the old truck, not because of the bed size itself.

Itsa little tricky to sort out what's what here. I downloaded the 2019 manual for my new 2019 Warlock 4X4 Classic thinking it would be good to have handy and I'm sure it will be (698 pages so I will not print it off). But! The new manual says there are no Flex-fuel engines, for the first example of differences, and that the V6 engine wants 0w-20 oil. My engine, by the window sticker, IS a Flex-fuel engine and it does have the yellow gas cap and the oil filler cap says 5w-20. I can deal with all that and so have also downloaded the 2018 manual which may be a better fit for my truck. Don't know what else is different yet, gonna have to use my head, eeek! I very much like my new truck so I don't care if it's a throwback or mutt, it's mine, all mine!
PS: Being the kind of guy I am, I did NOT want the extra complications of E-torque, stop/start, etc. and I like the extra adaptability of Flex-fuel. Happy Trails!

And look good paint match to my white truck with vinyl/cloth paint

FYI, The top hole for the front flaps are supposed to screw in to something but there is nothing in the fender but the hole. I would suggest picking up some of the plastic push-in retainers for the top holes. I had to temporarily hold them in place using a small chunk of rubber to screw into.

You have a gen 5 DT chassis, not the Gen 4 "classic" DS chassis. The OP got a Classic, there is no e-torque option for the Gen 4.

Actually if he has a 2019 warlock, he has the classic/4th gen DS. He may have just been confused in regards to etorque being available on the classics/4th gens DS.

There are a few differences under the hood from the 18s.Most differences are minor. As far as running boards I am using "2018 running boards" on my Classic. Most of the time you are gonna be fine with what you order. On my 1st Classic I bought running boards from Ebay. My second Classic I got a set of Steel Crafts made here in the USA. Both sets are/were good.

I bought mine in June and it took a long time for vendors to catch on. I still tend to just look up the 2018 and be done with it

I was always under the impression that the Classic was going to be the same as the how Toyota still sells the 70 series Land Cruisers in certain markets like here in Dubai, Africa and Australia.
