What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Used this stuff. Can't get it all in one message. Only bought 8 oz. Next time get 16 oz and roll it on with a small roller. The sponge is basically junk for the job. It abrades horribly

 

Got side ways on an old dirt road. Corrected to prevent damage but had fun non the the less. Rooster tails were flying and had fun making sure the wife didn't know..........

 

Driver’s side grab handle and door sill protectors. All from https://www.sparksparts.com/. Called a local dealer who told me that the drivers grab handle wasn’t available for my truck....

 

Yeah, Roman addressed the whole "not available" thing. Because they don't come stock on the trucks, the parts computers list them as unavailable.

 

Did a burn out..........

 

Finished installing today.

Looks good, the screen is a lot smaller than I expected but at least it has the features I need for now.

Finished good


Dry fit


Wiring the unit


GPS install location

 

In my “cheap” way to de-chrome my truck, I Plasti dipped the rear bumper. Looks OKAY up close but not amazing. Temporary until I can get other things done.

 

@newguy. I’m cheap too. Ha! Did you pull the bumpers or just tape around it good?

 

Added a black Diamondback HD cover

 

Video, or it didn't happen

 

Just taped.

 

Did you order surround painted? Where from? How's the match?

 

Watched Avatar during lunch! Lol never was able to do that on the stock head unit.

 

I love Smurfs.

 

Badge and sticker delete... soft folding tonneau...and wax... what a difference!!

 

I know this is an older post, but those rims are the first ones I've seen that I like as much or more than stock. I really like the stance on your truck, too, so I have a couple questions:

1: Am I correct in assuming that when you posted this you were on an otherwise stock truck?

2: Could you share the specs for your wheels? offset/spacers/etc.

3: Did you have to do any kind of trimming to make it all fit? Any rubbing?

Again, gorgeous truck.

 

Thanks! Much appreciated.

Yes, I am still at stock ride height on stock suspension. Wheels are 18x9 Stealth Custom Series Ray 10s with +25 offset. 275/70R18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I had some rubbing on the small front mud flap which is easily removed.

No spacers, but I think they have the perfect amount of beefiness without them.

 

Been busy but popped my cherry on this today. Had never used a torque wrench before. Ha!

 

Installed some led cargo lights, tag lights and backup lights. Now if i could get @Headlight Revolution to send me the tail lights and third brake light for free and maybe a sticker for my window as advertisement for them, lol. Anyway, one can wish. Love their products.

 

It's been a BIG week for my truck, 6112 / 5100 in and leveled at 1.9'', Pro Grille / Surround / bulge in Silver sky put on, Painted end caps too!

 

And tonight i just put on RCI Front Skid and Trans skid!

 

I'm done! nothing more! I have achieved my goals!

 

Today was my 10k mile service, SRS recall, PCS recall, some ECU software update and a brand new cabin filter. Also apparently my LED 3rd brake light was out so I had to swap the factory one back in for the time being.

 

Did some upgrades to my TRD Pro.
-CoachBuilder TRD Pro Kit
-Cooper STT Pro tires

Some pics from yesterday!

 

Looks great! Hoping to get mine done just like yours one day. What size tire did you go with?

 

Bad ass!

 

Thanks man!

 

275/70

 

Bumper shims = no more rubbing with 285/75/17

 

Installed Sparks color matched OE fender flairs. Exactly what I was looking for, super easy install to boot.
