    I started my DIY install of 5.29s with Auburn LSD this week. Got stopped waiting on some last minute parts and a bigger bearing separator but I'm attempting to document it in a thread for others to gain some confidence to do it themselves. Or completely ruin a nice truck...

    The last time I got gas in the Tundra was mid March. I am also in the middle of a tune so I do not have any hard numbers yet.

    I just went to 37x12.5R17 w/Mickey Thompson Baja Boss. I have not really got an idea on gas mileage since my speedometer calibrator will not change for me. I am not one to judge gas mileage from, I don’t drive trying to save gas

    How is the power now, that’s the big thing I noticed going form 315/70r17 to 37s was the truck is very sluggish now

    I do not feel sluggish at all. Is she as quick off the line as the 35's? Obviously not but I do not feel like it is having issues. I drove up many hills on the highway in Colorado, Utah and Arizona with no issues.
    This is not a hill but just a shot where my wife told me she was getting ready to pass a Tundra that was on a Sunday drive. I did not mash the pedal just pushed the pedal a little harder...
