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

Hey @empty_lord question for you. It would be easier for me to use the 2003-2009 4Runner steering wheel instead of this 2nd gen tundra wheel right? My airbag would match up as well as the 4Runner would use the same steering wheel controls so there would be no having to figure out the wiring.

 

That is pretty damn cool looking.

I am working on adjusting my new eyes:


Anyone considering LEDs, just skip it and go with HID retro fit. I highly recommend @SouthPaw s kit.
With LEDs in the city with oncoming traffic, it seemed as if I didn't even have my headlights on. Now, I gots light and the high beams are ridiculous! The beam pattern is so nice compared to the LEDs. Halo's connected to my repurposed dash switch too.

 

They might think you've been hanging out at "The Gym" with a line like that

 

yup, i have a 2008 4runner wheel in my tundra.

 

i keep getting tempted to do it. but i have many other things to get done on the truck and the tacoma first.

 

Done. I’m going to that one instead then. Hope it doesn’t look too terrible with my tan controls and airbag

 

you have the 2nd gen tundra wheel frame right?

 

This will give you an idea:

 

this is my 4runner wheel. havnt found the airbag yet for a decent price.

 

Details on the truck and what was the price you couldn't pass up? Inquiring minds want to know...

 

Correct. I’m gonna send it back unless you wanna buy it?

 

Awesome thanks. That’s exactly how it will look.

 

Depends on what it costs. I don’t need it. But I do like it.

 

06 4 wheel drive with 260,000 miles. It has a leaking transfer case seal and the AIP system isn't working, but I got it for $4,300.

 

It's about time!

 

Ah, that is a great deal...less than $500 in repairs if you do it yourself...nice!

 

Curious, do the right-hand controls for phone audio work? It looks like they just attach via ribbon cable to the left-hand radio controls when the airbag assembly is off so I was really curious if our truck had the correct wiring in place (passing thru the clock spring) to support the extra buttons or not.

 

Yes. Its plug and play

 

Adding to the list. I noticed there are a few different versions of that control, used for 4Runner, Camry, and others.

What year 4Runner is that from again? I probably should be looking for that too, instead of just Tundra and Sequoia.

Edit: Looks like the part# in dark grey for that button is 84244-35030-B0 (But I think it's orange/amber backlit). I can't seem to find the p/n for the cable to connect it to the left-hand control, though! (found it: 84204-58010)

 

Overlander bed platform almost complete. Now I have to wire in lights and inverter. Next up is prinsu style rack for the solar panel and other goodies.

I weighed all components before installing and comes to a grand total of 138lbs

 

The Camry setup is for a clock on the right side. So it won’t work. The 4runner and 2nd gen Tacoma black (dark grey) will work. The led color is amber mind you. Super rare and expensive, siennas had the FAWN color voice command and what not switches for the wheel on the right

 

That's the one thing I didn't consider. I don't even recall what color the LEDs are on my current controls. I just bought a replacement left control a couple months ago because mine are worn just about smooth.

So you're saying the 4R and Taco both have amber voice control buttons, or just the Taco?

Sorry for the bajillion questions. Thanks for taking the time.

 

Spent a bunch of time tweaking the new head unit today. It sounds great. Now I just need a sub to round it out.

 

Both. the leds can be replaced with some soldering

 

Put her up for sale...sigh...

 

Not even a year yet eh?onto bigger and better things?

 

Naw, just not driving it much. Bought a beater F150 to use around the new acreage, and end up driving it a lot daily - mostly cause I don't care about it. On the other hand, treating the Tundra like a museum piece. Tundras are nice but shouldn't be garage queens.


But now that you mention it, I could use a skid steer for the new acreage...

 

Toolcat, it's only money

 

Wazzzzup! Enjoy some photos from a recent trip to CO! New rear suspension did awesome. Didn’t have any rear end problems with all this droop!

I’m making the switch to DuroBumps front bump stops from the Wheelers Superbumps. Superbumps will be for-sale here shortly if anyone is interested.

I also have some 13” 650lb coils Off Icon 2.5s for sale if anyone is interested.

 

Honey, this guy is selling a banana tree for $50! Let's get it!

I had to dig these up and throw them in the truck myself. Now I get to unload them and plant them myself. Fawk!



Its in!
