What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Went to shasta dam for a some camping riding and light wheeling to put some dust on the truck.

 

Awesome, thanks Andy, sounds like a solid product that won’t suck the wallet dry.

 

Got ‘er sandy. Promise there’s an ocean back there in the fog.

 

What do the mounts look like for this cover? Does it use the track system or relocate it so the track is still usable?

 

I'm really happy with it. Well built. I really like the aluminum (lower weight) and black powder coat. Made in USA. Wasn't cheap but good value for money. And yes, locks are heavy duty, nothing on this thing is weak or cheap or flimsy.

 

You have one of the best looking tundras on the site!

 

That's awesome! Almost looks like you are sizing up a landing. I would move those two big rocks at the base of the face first.

 

Put the new Firestone bags and AirLift WirelessOne system to the test and man I’ll never tow/haul without these things again...had my other baby (my boat) behind us and the truck bed loaded to the max with luggage and hauled it 4 hours up north to 1000 Islands with ease, the bags def made a difference!...and that WirelessOne just spoils ya...pay no attention to that last pic, my wife says I have issues, I don’t see it

 

Have to finally register the truck tomorrow ($2k+) so I can put my star-spangled veteran plates back on.
I needed to bring home 16' lumber yesterday and had to bust out the Scout instead, and I haven't been able to fly this year because I can't transport my glider. Need to put my damned tracracs on. Got new rails for an 8' bed for $50, couldn't turn it down. But have been procrastinating because I have to drill out four perfectly aligned holes for the pockets, no pressure.. Pray for me

 

Added Superstrut bed rails and tie downs. Bolts to connect the rails to the bed are M6x1.0 (pitch) x30mm. I HIGHLY recommended chasing the threads in the bedside before starting. Lots of paint and general crud in them. Stripped a couple of bolts and welded bed nuts. Drilled them out and went up to an M7 and M8 on those.

 

That's what she DID NOT say

 

We loaded up some bikes and hit the trails this morning.

 

Phantom squeak on mine also. Aggravating!

 

Nice! I haven't seen this option for tie downs yet, looks good. Can they hold a good amount pressure? I just recently realized that the tool box in the back hides the only 2 front hooks... so bummed. I need other options, thanks for sharing.

 

Was and now shots

Was too tired to clean things afterwards but...

 

The entire Unistrut/Superstrut system is built extremely strong and I'm using 1/2" bolts. I use it for a bunch of structural items. Roof Top Tent racks, etc.

 

Chrome delete stage 1 completed. Put on the pro front grill and hood buldge this weekend. Next on the list for chrome delete will be getting rid of those bumper ends. Undecided on if I want to go full bumper, order up black ones or get the chrome ones repainted.

 

That's a bold statement! Thank you

 

Or just get the bumper overlays which is what I went with. I like the overlays since they go right over the chrome.

 

Which website did you get the bumper overlays from? Last bit of ugly chrome up front I need to get rid of! Just can’t bring myself to pay all the $$$ for new painted ones

 

Is that the little bike riding spot off the green belt?
Wait I see your Plate says 1B so you may not be in the Boise area.

 

Added some red accents and the heritage decals

 

That's what I am up to also, doing the red accents!
I also dipped my front two hooks took them off dipped them, then torqued them back down.
Great color BTW!!

 

Thank you sir! I have my tow hooks in red also and just got those wheels last week but I need to redo them. But the red wheel centers give it a nice little detail I think.

 

I agree it looks great!!

 

Rails chopped down, drilling tomorrow..

 

I am aware of the Green Belt you are referring to! However, we were on the one 240 miles away in the “Gate City”. We do have a trip up to Boise in approx three weeks though for its “2nd” Toyota Care service. We plan to check out more fishing holes and such while there for a few days.

 

Check these out...TPO will match the middle section of the front bumper...1 left in stock!!

Ya it was only about a 5 foot drop to flat but there was no way to get back up so we decided to move on best view of the lake tho!

 

Do these just snap over the chrome? Or how do they install? I don't see any install instructions.
