Went down to Arizona and hit Smasher Canyon with Wheeling Full-size. We had a fantastic time and really worked to get through the trail. In the end, the trail lives up to its’ name and we both left with body damage.
This was my first real outing using the Eaton e-locker and it performed flawlessly. There was numerous occasions where the weight distribution was off enough but were a non issue having the rear locked.
The biggest opportunity for the truck on this trip was the approach angle, which I’ve known for some time. The front bumper took a lot of abuse but not surprising. I’ll be working on fabricating both a front and rear bumper for the truck next so you’ll probably see changes to come for the next video.

2012 tundra owner here & I just want to say thank you
Absolutely 💪🏽
Tundra owner here and VERY proud of this video. One of the best, good wheelin' out there
Thank you! I try and represent 👊🏽
That's some crazy off-roading in a nearly stock Tundra
Yeah he does a good job
Nearly stock……. Except for tires, wheels, lift kit, rear locker, sliders………… nothing “nearly stock.” I wish I was here a year ago to tell to that.
@@overlandbyday1130compared to most finished up overland rigs this is considered barebones. Missing bumpers, winch, regear, bigger tires, beadlocks, more skids, extra lights. Most trucks, especially Toyotas, will end up with a lift, wheels and tires. Sliders and lockers are the only off-road specific mods this truck has that sets it apart from any other I see multiple of daily.
Not to mention it looks like he’s on 20’s and the “lift” is more like a level. No cosmetic mods, limited suspension mods, limited performance mods. Sounds pretty stock to me.
@@carsenrichards8205all the bs you mentioned is not really needed for most off roaders. Most people who have them don’t even use them. He is more than equipped for off road
@@Trd2020 This isn’t about what’s needed or what other people do or don’t use. I never said he wasn’t equipped for off-roading. Most vehicles nowadays are capable enough right off the lot. That doesn’t change the fact that he is nearly stock and has hardly touched the surface in potential off-road modifications. A raptor comes off the lot with over half the mods I listed and technically still “stock”
And the award for My Nuts are Made of Tungsten Unobtanium goes to... A very brave full size Tundra wheeler!
I'm more kitted up for pre-running, but much respect for guys running their trucks through the rocks and making it look easy! 👍
I feel like any vehicle bigger than a first gen tundra is too big for rock crawling/serious 4x4 trails. But you’re a legend for doing this!
Thank you! I enjoy pushing the boundaries of where these trucks will go 🤙🏽
Looks tight in some areas. I’m 5” wider, makes some things easier, some harder.
Excellent video! People do tons of videos with walk-around's of cool Tundra builds, but very few with decent actual offroading. I am always hesitant to go to some places due to the size of the Tundra. Thanks for showcasing the capabilities of this platform.
Thanks! I appreciate it, and I agree with everything you said.
This why Toyota Tundra is number1
I just took my limited with same wheel tire combo off-road last weekend. Mild trail, GOOD to see how impressive it is in rough country! You’re fearless and these tundras are beasts!!
Great vid! Thank you. You’ve boosted my confidence in its capabilities
Glad I could help! Hope you have lots of fun with your rig!
I knew the Tundra was capable, but driver/spotter team make look easy! Great job thank you!
Proud Tundra owner. This is some good wheelin'! Great spotter, too! 🤙
This was one of the better off-road tundra vids good job!
Thanks!
Major respect to this tundra and its owner. Way to represent!
DAMN GUY'S PUTTIN THOSE TRUCK'S OUT NICE
Badass! We all really watched a 20 min video of you going up and over rocks lol
This is a pretty damn impressive run... 🤙
great...experienced Spotter's Are the KEY...for success!!
He's like "fuck it, it'll buff out"!!
Great spotter. Great drive!
Great video. Gotta admit 1 minute into the video I thought you were an amature that would surely wreck that truck. You proved me wrong by the third and hooked on watching the entire thing by the 4th. Great driving. Great spotting.
Glad you could enjoy the video!
Hello,
Wow that looks awesome . Amazing capabilities of that power train.
I got a 2007 tundra 5.7 liter gas 189k miles on it. I don't do anything cool like your truck. I do tow my 22 ft fishing boat every summer. She pure likes a kitten .
Enjoyed your video, thanks.
Very impressive for taking rigs that big on this trail we just did it yesterday and some spots are no joke
Agreed man! Anyone that’s been on this trail will realize it’s an aggressive trail. There’s a few spots for sure where I questioned if we would get through cuz it was crazy lol.
Nice work!!!
In the summer im planing on doing a Solid axle swap with some 3/4 or 1 ton axles for my 08 tundra.
Veryyy Impressive Performance
Crazy Tundra driver, love it. Good job!!
You just sold me on getting an e locker installed on my 2017 tundra. Good driver and good swamper!
Glad to hear it! Elocker is the way. Air lockers routinely have issues with installations and leaky air lines etc.
Retained the stock 4:30 gears?
Tundra... My dream!!!
🤗
Your truck looks and works great in the rocks! The next mod might just be new bumpers to help the approach and departure angles?
Yeah the bumpers are next for sure. I had originally intended to already have bumpers for this trip but the month leading up to this I ran out of time to fab some so I ran the stock ones and sure enough they got in the way pretty bad.
Great job spotting!
Easy work for the Tundra.
Those trasheroos add 4x4 capability like stickers add horsepower..
Nice truck and wheelin though
Bad-ass video! Great driver, great truck, and awesome spotter! ❤
gets around pretty well for a full sizer
Absolute monster
👏👍🏻
Thanks! 🙌🏽
Good spotting!
Great job.
Woooow 🙌🙌😎😎
Nice video
I feel like minimum 35s up for tire and atleast 3inch up lift
Firme video
awesome video dude thanks for sharing. since you installed the eaton locker have you experienced any disengagement while shifting to reverse? supposedly this locker does this which seems like it could be an annoyance.
None that I noticed. And I did have to back up and reposition and number of times on the trail and never experienced any loss of traction or disengagement. While it could have happened, it wasn’t disengaged long enough to notice or be an issue.
Smasher, appropriate name.
What tire size, rims, and lift are you using? Obviously they're 37-in Cooper STT Pro but what about the rest? And did you regear vy chance, if so what is the gear ratio now? 🤔
They’re 37x12.5x20 and the wheels are 20x9 KMC Mesa 544’s. I’m regeared to 5.29’s with a rear Eaton locker
Whatcha supposed to do if you break something out there like ur rear diff or bust a while in your Trans?
I’ve got skid plates protecting the oil pan, transfer case and transmission, so busting a hole in that is very unlikely. But if it did happen then I’ll just have to get towed out. If I destroy a rear differential I can still drive out in 4x4 using just the front differential, this already to me once before with my 4Runner and that’s how I got home. Other than that, I carry spare CV axles since those are more likely to break.
made me cringe a bit haha only because i couldnt put my tundra through this.. at least not yet! but super cool. awesome to see.
What’s the year and mileage on the beauty?
It’s a ‘13 and I think I am around 104k
Are you both driving Tundra?
Yessir!
And they say tundra is 2 big for the trail.
😮
What sliders are those???!!!! Whiteknuckle, rci etc??
Homemade sliders
How is the mpg with 37s
Just outta curiosity did you air down tires?
Yeah I was at 18psi
Read lockers?
Yes I’m using an Eaton e-locker in the rear.
Is that a 4"lift?
It’s 3” from OME
37s?
Yessir
should take a 2001 Tacoma to go here.....Tundra too wide and LOW for this place!!!!
Evidently not
