Dan's 2024 TRD OR Celestial Silver Long Bed Build

[gofastdan]

Build is looking great and love seeing the other silver 4g's as well. Any plans for a roof rack or will the camper interfere?

The camper will sit over the passenger door, although with the six foot bed it's obviously not going to cover as much of the roof as it would with the five foot bed. I also have the sunroof so between the two I probably won't ever attempt to put a roof rack on. I am getting load bars on the camper and can store light items up there. Maybe my recovery boards for example....

I took possession of the Lone Peak Overland wedge camper I had purchased in Nov '22 this past Friday. Here's a link to the post w/details.

As part of buying my truck through the Costco auto program I got 50% off parts, accessories and/or service, up to $200 off, so I splurged on a few items.

First up, lettering for the tailgate.

Next, TRD Performance Air Filter. Not much to show with this one...

Finally, the axle dump exhaust tip. I was surprised that apparently they've changed the part and it now has the hanger bracket already welded on. That was unexpected, but nice.

One tip for removing the old exhaust. First, lift the truck using the subframe (not the axle) to get as much clearance as possible. Second, drop the spare tire. It was going to be a pain in the neck to snake out of there but dropping the spare let it slide right out, easy peasy...

Awesome build. What TPMS sensors and lug nuts did you end up going with?

I purchased and had the wheels and tires installed at Discount Tire. We just reused the stock TPMS sensors (I separated the stock wheels from the tires for resale). Discount Tires had the lug nuts in stock so that's what we used. I think they charged me ~$60 for them.

Thanks for the info. I’ll try to see if I can order those!

I'm pretty sure this is exactly what I have. The odd thing is finding this part number for sale isn't straightforward, for example it seems Amazon carries the lug nuts, but only in a 5 lug set (20 total), not the 6 lug set.
