I Regret this Mod - Toyota Tundra Overland / Daily Driver Rig Walkaround

[@louie4316]

Awesome truck, the pinstriping comes with the territory of off roading on the trails. I call them battle scars, I don't worry about them at all.

[@stay4theride]

I used to work in a body shop. Chrome definitely doesn't like paint. But definitely looks great while it's on there. The editing was AWESOME 🤠👍

[@jamestaylor9258]

I appreciate your open discussion of what you consider to be pros and cons as you build it out...

[@moduc996]

I just did the same thing you did, traded my TRD Off Road Tacoma for a Tundra TRD Pro. Difference between them is huge. Tundra has so much power I don’t even feel I’m towing my camper. Cab space is huge too. The only con is that it likes gas :)

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Mo Bi yup, our tundras are definitely thirsty beasts . Congrats on the trade 🍻

[@deity..]

Gotta appreciate the effort and time you put in to make this video!

[@bluejeans8001]

Really enjoyed the “twin” vid effect & the Pro/Con style of review. Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍

[@sgbradley]

You're doing well with this build Edward. As for the pinstripe, I use magnet skin's but I got mine at a sign shop instead of Smitty built cause I wanted more protection than the stock parts. (Don't buy a Aluminum sided truck)! Instead of plastic dip use lino paint, it goes on cold so you don't have to remove the parts.

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Stephen Bradley thanks for the tips, Stephen! Do you apply the magnet skins before going out on trails, then remove them after?

[@sgbradley]

@@KrokemOutdoors Like you I live on the West coast on Vancouver Island, but yeah I take mine off unless I know I'm going back to the woods (1/2 a mile away) soon after. I got a full sheet made and then cut it in half or three pieces for the hood, when you have a piece of it the size of the door it makes it awkward to place it exactly square by myself. I also cut them on S or Z shapes so they always go on the same spot. Mines all white but you can have designer colors or graphics if you want but remember that will scratch overtime too.

[@patrickharms1671]

Awesome editing and great content as always keep it up man!

[@artm6723]

Your getting good at this Ed. Really good! Well done!

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Art M thanks my bro! 🍻

[@Josh-jq4xq]

You need an aluminum plate to span between your two racks on the drivers side. This will allow you to mount the quick fist clamps directly to that instead of the racks themselves. This would also give you many more options for mounting additional gear.

[@louie4316]

Or you can do what I've seen before, just cut out a piece of wood 3/8 thick. Paint it black and bolt it in to tie those two racks together on the side. looks good and you have the satisfaction of knowing that you made it.

[@ray_23trd33]

Awesome video Ed and 👍 on the cool edit. Thanks for sharing man🤙

[@albertoperaza9297]

Great video man like always, that was really cool with the two Edwards. one is pros the other cons great job.

[@chrisunderhill8853]

for the grill look into the truck bed liner spray you can get it in a matt finish with no texture and it is rock hard.

[@alsims8280]

Good review from real world use background. Thanks for the full size vehicle overlanding tips!

[@insaynbcr]

Bro! Hold off on ordering any more rack parts or stuff like that until we get together in a few weeks on planned our camp trip. You know I have a very overactive imagination, access to several good metal shops near me for materials and the tools/skills to remedy some or most of your rack/shovel mount/awning issues. I just need a day to actually see it for what it is, and work through some ideas with you so we can make a plan. 👍

[@KrokemOutdoors]

insaynbcr looking forward to your thoughts, as well as that rockfish! 🍻

Mr. H it’s special effects 😂

[@MJAltairy]

New subscriber here! Been watching your vids mainly because i plan on building my rig out of my full-sized ram1500. Love the content! Just wanted to share a quick tip regarding the plasti-dip. For chips and scratches, you can actually just wipe the area clean then generously spray more of the plastidip on and around the damaged area. I dont know the chemistry behind it but it has a thinning agent in it and it basically “melts”/ blends itself into the old paint and shouldn’t cause any streaks.

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

My Honda Passport is getting pinned stripped! 😱 Surprisingly, this vehicle is almost as wide as a Tundra (79.9” vs. 78.6”). Luckily the pin stripping hasn’t got down to my paint yet, and it’s not too too noticeable. I’ve thought up a solution, I just haven’t got around to working on my project. Dude! The two person effect is awesome! I don’t think my video editing software is capable of that. I have never seen that before, so great job with the production of this video 👍

[@MaseTravels]

JonDZ Adventuring Cool effects for sure. 👌🏼

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Wow, long lost twin is here doing collaboration with you!

[@Sahn_Cho]

Have you considered installing cable limb risers on the hood to the roof? This will help the truck lessen the scratches from the tree branches.

[@sgbradley]

Oh and go for Sleen for your Tundra sliders etc.

[@lelandlearn]

That editing tho... Good job man!

Nice editing work 👍🏼 The bolt on fake rock sliders are my least favorite mod

[@macariusfreestyle8521]

I don't get why some people seemed to be bothered by a little bit if chrome. I see that in Tacoma World alot. I like my stock chrome on my 99 Taco plus ingot chrome steel rollbars and chrome Halogens lights mounted, I'm not bothered. But nice Tundra, I want to upgrade to a Tundra in the future.

[@SoundMindADV]

Very creative! Great video :)

[@BrosephRussell]

Thanks for the update on your mods , what about using bed liner stuff would that work . Also great editing with the two of you LOL was awesome

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Broseph Russell thanks bro. I heard bedliner doesn’t adhere well with chrome, but not sure. It’s a real idea, though ! 👍

[@john.a8334]

That was creepy seeing two of you. Overall great info and video edition.

[@KrokemOutdoors]

[@DansOverlanding]

Awesome truck. Pick up some color match door handles and mirror caps or textured black ones instead what you got. Get some sliders for sure as they will save you in the end. Trail damage is some good war wounds though ;)

[@zdollerbill1]

Hey Nice ride for sure looks good🐟🐟🎣🎣

[@520menace]

You might try using Rustoleum Bed Liner Spray, it's more durable and won't peel like Plasti Dip. It does have texture if you don't mind that look.

Do you have the deck rail system in your truck bed. I am curious how the kb voodoo crossbar system works with the deck rail system. Thanks. Truck looks good.

[@frogmanar15]

Love the video. What’s about your wheels being plastic dip. How are they holding up and would you recommend it ??

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Frank Martinez they’re still holding up well, even through power washing. As long as you don’t scrape the wheels you should be fine

[@kennychan2044]

Overall I like your mods. However not a fan of the smoked taillights. Wondering why didn't you just get the SR5 that has the black parts you like. Not a fan of chrome myself...it's so 90s.

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Kenny Chan yeah, the smoked lights aren’t for everyone , which I understand. I got the Limited because it had features that the other trims did not have (driver and passenger power seats, etc) ✌️

[@jamesstein5952]

where is your spare? I have a 2017 same model and just put K2's 315's. Looking for ideas for spare tire. Tks.

[@KrokemOutdoors]

james stein mine is the 275 so it fits under the bed where the stock spare is. For a 315 , I think you have to install a mount on your bed or tailgate

[@jermburas]

What did you put over the Tyger emblem on your rails to make them solid?

[@KrokemOutdoors]

Jeremy Buras cut some skateboard grip tape 👍

[@freeravenadventures6925]

Toyota justs needs to offer a "chrome package" option for the rare few that actually want it and leave chrome off the rest of the trims.... The vast majority of Tundra owners dont want it and spend hundreds to thousands trying to remove it. But maybe thats part of the business plan for toyota. Make more money off the people knowing they will be getting OEM parts to cover up the chrome

[@KrokemOutdoors]

The Free Raven my thoughts exactly! There are still people out there who like chrome, but many more who don’t.

[@wooogly6287]

Use bedliner on the front instead of plastidip

[@dwightstewart7181]

Okay, since manufacturers don't chrome the budget models, I've never understood this desire to paint everything (wheels, grill, bumpers, mirrors, etc) black, creating the look of those budget models. If I buy a $50k truck, I want it to look like a $50k truck, not a $20k one. Otherwise, why not just buy the budget model?
