What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Ouch

 

Oh man, that sucks! Did the Lexus not have a camera or sensors?

 

Thanks! Used barely any beadmaker, actually. Filled a spray bottle. Waxed her about a month ago.

I just used it for the first time too. I filled up a lil spray bottle and did mine too. It goes far. I applied it dry after doing a wax the day before and it seems I didn't use but about 3-5 oz. But thay gallon will go far and last a while. I'll use it every other wash or 2 as a drying aid most likely

Bumpershellz



Tyger Blades



Bedrug Mat



Auto Tailgate Mod

 

Those tailgate mods....

 

It had both, but my moms car does not so she was not used to those items. this was only her second time driving the suv.

 

Awesome! I used it as a drying aid, then the next day just did a light spray and wipe. Nothing I’ve ever used made such a difference with so little effort.

 

Time for the first oil change. Installing a Fumoto valve along with the aluminum oil filter housing. Also picked up the Motivx kit.

 

Went from no underseat storage to underseat storage.

I put kilmat sound deadening under the bins. Then I cut out the carpet a little so they'd fit in the storage bins. I didn't remove the insulation. Why would I do that? It adds a little extra cushion and could help a little more if I have something back there that wants to rattle.

 

You mind posting any differences in the wiring for a 2020 from the original instructions for a Gen 2 (IIRC)? And I don't see actuators in your video. Did you not use them?

 

Got the oil changed on her...she’s running like a champ!

 

I used two actuators, one for each rod, in the tailgate. I'll take the cover off of the tailgate and post pictures in the original tailgate mod thread.

 

RCI Skid ✔️...thing is a beast, well worth the upgrade
Also installed some Boss Offroad Shims, don’t think the 2 skid plates (Nfab and RCI) would have worked together without them because of the Diff drop, they are basically touching now after the shims

 

LOOKS GREAT!!!!! Im looking for a new front Skid and Really like how it looks!

 

Those are High on my List of To Do's. I was driving around my ranch last weekend and ran over a downed oak branch in some tall goat weeds. It took me a few minutes to get it worked out and can definitely see how I could of ripped one off.
Where did you order them from?

 

SEM treatment on vent rings, cup holder trim, and center panel.

 

Installed the smooth HD diamondback cover...was going for the clean look.

 

Got the lift, grille, and mirror caps on. It’s getting there! Might even need to start a build thread soon

 

Good stuff!

Certainly, you made videos.

 

Getting ready to go on a trip which will include about 1,500 miles with my two boys in the back, ages 8 and 2. I already have a Kenwood 996xr but figured Ide give them a little more viewing space actually in the back seat. So I got a 10” screen that’s dedicated for them in the back. The center console has my rca to hdmi convertor and other cords for the car chargers, power for the tv and power for the convertor. I need to run that extra hdmi cable and tuck it under the center console and redo the electrical tape pieces that have crinkles in it. Yea....the crinkles upset my ocd. Lol. But I was trying to get things hooked up and running at least. Ran it all under the center console and comes out under the seat then I ran it under the seat back. I wanted a semi permanent install so I opted to use the hook side of Velcro to at least secure it to the seat. When I’m not using the screen, I can easily tuck the hdmi/power cord inside the seat back.

 

Safe travels.

 

Love the attention to detail... I can nor stand cords everywhere.

 

Replaced factory speakers. Disconnected the center dash for now. The one nice thing about the stock speakers is the foam weatherstrip. I decided to do that and seal the speakers to the mounts. Volume is still crap with factory HU, but the clarity is amazing!

 

Thank you, Sir.

 

Haha. Thank you. I’m a big fan of wire loom. Clean wiring installs has always been something I tend to spend a little more thought on. I don’t like things just all over the place and looking like some rookie did the work. Haha.

 

For the rci skid did you go with steel or aluminum?

 

Thank you!!...after seeing and handling this thing in person, I would absolutely recommend it!!

Thank you!...and of course!...lol...got a couple videos in today, just have to edit and they’ll be up

Went with the powder coated 1/4” Aluminum, thing is for real!
