What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Same boat I'm in. When we've done walk through and the realtor and wife head for the kitchen I make a b line for the garage and start picturing where the tools go and how big of a work bench I can fit. We saw one that had been partially converted to be a large closet and I immediately said let's leave before seeing anything else.

 

Same here. Our current house has a really big 2 car garage. It's great. We're actually going to downsize into an apartment so we can start stacking away cash before our move out west. I'll miss the garage the most.

 

Signed up at auto zone . Com today for their service manuals and they are a let down for the most part.

I'll look on fleabay for some used service manuals for my transmission.

 

Found this during the research for manuals.

 

What qualifies / constitutes for Pain Rank?

'01 & '02 ARE LOOKING GOOD.

The TSBs surged in '04

 

That’s badass

 

The same question I asked myself. Not sure exactly and wasn’t going to spend much time trying to figure it out. Yes, things surged.

How’s your passenger rocker panel look after that tree punched back?

 

The frame took the hit luckily

 

Nice!

 

Sliders are definitely in my future.

 

Boo hiss

 

What size tires can I fit on my 2006 tundra. im currently running 275/55/20r but i want bigger tires that will lift the car a little and stick out a bit.

 

2005. No complaints here.

 

Other then my minor dent and oil leak ive had a trouble free 150ish miles in my 05

 

Yeah, I can boo hiss all I want but truth is I haven't had any issues with mine either.

 

Got a little bit of play in the driver side inner tie rod.. going to get that sorted after the body work, debating new tie rod or just replace the rack. I’ll pull the boots and inspect the other side closer too...

 

Gotta love fixing the truck at 5:45am!

 

@Casper421 can't really tell what broke in that picture. Something related to the ignition?

 

I just replaced mine with one from a bad cable...


Toyota doesn’t sell it seperate sadly

 

Plastic retaining clip failed on the shift linkage. Went to shift into D, got to R and then “snap” and the shifter was free moving. Was stuck in R until I could Jerry rig it to get to work. Vice-grip for the win!

 

Figured. I’ll make something but it won’t be plastic, that’s for sure!

 

As long as it doesn't look like this when you're done

 

Not gonna lie, my first idea was to wrap it with electrical tape. Brain wasn’t 100% at 5:45.

 

This is one of the cleanest DC's on here. Even the stock wheels painted black look good. Does anyone know if the sunroof was only offered on certain years? I thought they were only on limited's but this one appears to have an SR5 badge.

 

Not sure but my 04 SR5 has a sunroof also.

 

Finally threw the retrofits on the truck. Ddm tuning "plus" 4300k kit does not disappoint for the $$. Fogs received some led style replacement bulbs. Dont have a ton of money tied into this upgrade, but the results are awesome. Haven't snapped night time pics yet.

 

Looks Sweet

 

This is how I decided to spend my day instead of sleeping since I'm off tonight.
