Unfortunately, no SwingCase was made specifically for the 1st gens. These are for the 2nd gen tundras: SC400D and SC400P. Both sides work great!

 

Thanks! Keep up the good work!

 

Installed 3rd brake light for when the tent is on the rack:


Quick fists for axe and shovel:

 

Same spot I have my shovel mounted. Those quick fists are pretty awesome. I will say my shovel has been nice to have with me more times than I can count and has saved my ass no less than two times. My hatchet has been damn handy too. Good items for anyone to mount to their bed in my opinion. Thumbs up.

 

@Casper421 a few questions on the Skid Row armor. From their website, it looks like the front plate has a hole to allow for oil to drain when pulling the filter? Has this made oil changes quicker than then OEM plate allowed? That would really sweeten the deal.

 

What tent did you end up buying??

 

I’ve had a Tepui Kukenam sky for the last 3 years and love it. It’s better suited for warmer weather but was fine with the dense fog and 34* this morning. I plan to pick up their Insulator and Weatherhood at Tepuifest this October before the snow season.

 

I haven’t changed the filter yet since installing the skids but the hole looks like it’ll drain just fine. I’ll update after my next oil change.

 

Removed the rear passenger side seat and built a platform for the new CSI 52qt fridge:

 

I like! The whole concept of a fridge/freezer for you truck or trailer is just awesome. We use them on the trailers at work and they are really nice. Ice isn't bad for a day or maybe two but on hot days it can get pretty bad replenishing what melts.

Any thoughts on making it a rack-out? I think this was brought up in another thread, but I didn't see a reply. I wanna say we use 18" sliders on our fridge racks.

 

I’ve always hated how quickly ice melts in my RTIC cooler, even with a pre chill. Soggy food no more!!

I would use a slide if it was mounted in the bed but the fridge is too tall to fit under the tonneau, even without the slide. This placement allows for access while driving and most importantly, keeps 2 seats open. A slide in the back seat would put the fridge on the drivers side and take up 2 seats. Who knows how I’ll feel after a couple trips, might scrap the whole thing and start over. I’ll keep the updates coming.

 

Going to Tepuifest? Just bought my ticket the other day, look forward to seeing you/your truck there.

 

I hope to. The plan is to stop by on the tail end of a 2 week road trip. I better be there all weekend if I have to pay $90.

 

What's the word on those injectors? Looks like a good upgrade if there is a measurable benefit like they claim.

I like mine. They aren't going to give you a huge bump in power but it'll be a little noticeable along with a little bump in mpg

 

I don't see where BD makes foglights for the 1st gen tundra.... mind telling me how you got those to work?

 

@Casper421 Your truck is looking awesome, got pointed this way as I'm looking to see how the Victory sliders have been working out after some extended use...any feedback or comments to share? It's proving tough to find sliders for these 1st gens....

 

That is some nice work there.. Like the look!

 

Sickkk build !

just recently got my 2005 tundra myself. I’ll be starting my build thread soon

following this.
cheers!

 

Any rubbing with your tire set up?

 

I followed a write up on Tundrasolutions but I bought bezels from carid.com, made some holes for the wires and mounted them up. Pretty quick and painless. Wired up the stock connector and it works perfect. Let me know if you have more questions.

 

They’ve worked just fine. Used them as sliders the other week and they held up just fine. I do plan on making new feet and some triangular gussets for the legs just for insurance.

They are amazing for steps and I use them almost every day I’m out!

 

Yes. Frame, firewall and pinch weld. Worth it though!

 

Crazy question. But would you happen to have a picture of those injectors showing the part # I’m Pretty sure those are the injectors I have laying around for my corolla...

 

I don’t on my phone but I still have the packaging with the specs at home. Who knows when I’ll be there though. Try emailing @dirtydeeds, they’ll have the part#.

 

It’s strange my injectors are orange

 

Did you get the 270’s or 330’s?

 

The 270s

 

Interesting, I’ve got nothin. I don’t think any members on here actually have the same color injectors but I’ve also been mia for the last 7 months.

 

It’s been a while so I’m due for a little update. Clocked a lot of miles and haven’t had any issues except for tie rod ends! Icon shocks are great! Deaver springs ride amazing and definitely hold a ton of weight while still providing tons of flex. CSI fridge is a game changer! No ice or soggy food for 15 days on the road. The set up is dialed in until the trailer is built and the tent is replaced by a pop-up.

Mounted a 23Zero 4x8 awning to the rear of the bed rack along with some BD S2’s for dust lights.

Also mounted a RAM iPhone mount next to the cup holders. Bulletproof!


Just got my new welder so it’s time to make some shit! Stay tuned.
