Mine didn’t have it as well but it is something you can add after. Since I didn’t order mine and found it at a dealer I didn’t have the option. But I’m gonna get it.

I love that color blue yummy

I also love the headlights and fog lights more than the 18...

You can’t (easily) add the dual alternators after the fact. I think there are higher output single alternators though.

Dealer said I could *whiney tone* isn’t it just a bracket, alternator, belt, and harness? No you make me have to google damn you.

One post on pwr said flash can’t be done according to dealer. I’m thinking of going with an air compressor instead but as of right now don’t need either. Plus the idle ramps up automatically when I winch sooo

It does that because it recognizes a lack of (and subsequently need for additional) power. Mine with the 380 amps has never idled up before, and I’ve stressed it. Food for thought. Easier to just get a larger single alternator than try to fab in duals.

Totally happy how truck turned out. Drives like stock, no rubbing at all. Exhaust sounds great. I had people tell me negative **** about the spacer leveling kit. No issues with the Truxxx one I bought.

Yes, took a few hours for the Alignment, but drives perfect.

All I did was center my steering wheel and several years later all is good still. Would I rather have a Thuren setup instead? Well hell yes, but I just havnt got around to doing that yet.

Finally got a bed rack installed. Still have a kink to work out with the top cross bars. I went with a 18" tall rack from victory 4x4, they typically build yota and jeep stuff. This one was listed as "universal" close but not quite. As I started putting it together since our beds are roughly 1.5" wider than a tundra I was only able to get one bolt in the cross bars as seen in the pic. I contacted victory and they are sending me out longer cross bars to remedy the issue. I decided to slap it together any way just for kicks. I'm actually pretty impressed with it. There is a slight overhang on the rear vertical posts but other than that the fit is pretty good. Powder coating is nice and mounts up solid. Another plus is I was able to fit my roll up tonno cover on. I only plan on doing the rotopax, recovery boards and a awning soon. I'm super happy with it budget was a big factor for me as this was only a bit over $800 compared to other offerings for power wagons which are well over 1k. I'm super happy with how it turned out. Should have the new bars in Wednesday and I'll try to snap more photos.72c051f4f80dd397c4b7332dd41b9c0c.jpg437c3a63a675da29dc9f80575195892a.jpg28db0b0a89e22eb28b949706cf922ae4.jpg129c857a37c8372c5a22ec096ed913b6.jpg67bf25be938097ac9b373ef3f69548f6.jpg
