What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Well, here’s a mock up of the on board compressor mount I put together. Pretty sturdy, ran out of daylight to run a vibration test with the new compressor attached. Still need to rewire the compressor and replace the air fittings.

 

I know, I was just giving you shit since everyone seems to ask if everything we put on or around the grill affects it.....lol

 

Truck is looking great man, got a shot of that license plate holder for your Victory bumper?

 

Nice! I keep putting it off, but I’ll get a damn ticket one day with no plate. But I just hate to put a plate on that awesome bumper.

 

Kuch!!

 

You're a braver man than I

 

Dang it. At that price, I don’t have any excuse to not have a plate in the front. Ugh. Thanks.

 

35s

 

They may rub just a little.

 

Just patient and stubborn

 

Real time video of my garage

 

Enjoy

 

This. This has made me learn every trade I know.
And I do all kinds of shit.

 

Good stuff.

Details.

 

Icon Stage 8 kit with tubular UCA and RXT leaf pack

Icon actually upgraded the coil overs to CDCV version which was a nice surprise.

 

Nice!
Bonus!
Next on my list, when I wear out these Toytecs.

 

I had a Retrax in my 2005 DC.
Assembled it in the garage and lifted it by myself (canister and rails), set the canister on the tail gate, got in the bed, and lifted it into place.
Put the clamps on the rails, done deal.

Keep in mind I had a full bedrug on the tailgate, so cover your tailgate.
Also be aware of the drain tubes on the bottom of the canister if you set it down on something flat......

I used to take it off by myself when I knew I needed the full bed.
Just pulled the drain tubes off, took the rail clamps off, lifted it, set the canister on the bed, then got down, lifted it, and set it down on carpet.
I would set it down on the front canister end with the rails sticking straight up to avoid damaging the drain tubes.
You can do it by yourself, although a helper the first time or two would be helpful.




As to the drain tubes:
I used underground lawn sprinkler parts to run my Undercover Flex drains.
Same would apply for the Retrax canister tubes.....
I should of used the top half of the plug instead of the bottom.
Would have given more clearance for 4X8 sheets of sheetrock or plywood.




A side note...
I wish I would have bought another Retrax (or a Diamondback) instead of the Flex.......
I like the Flex, but I liked the Retrax better...

 

Finally have the courage to drive the truck at work and try not to hit any sprinkler heads at the parking garage

 

Gotta love that puckered up feeling when the ceilings look low!

My truck isn't even lifted and I totally feel like I'm gonna hit something in covered parking garages. Part of why I've kept my stock antenna. It's my feeler for things. If it hits, I know I need to stop and evaluate the situation!

 

Sweet! I’ve got the same, 7” coilover and I’m looking to add rear airbags. Which ones did you go with? Did you add anything along with the bags?

 

On my last trip stayed at Marriott that had parking garage. Happy that I measured my truck. Stock it stands at 6’-6”, the garage was 7’. It looked really close.

 

So don't Gino, sometimes you just gotta go with ur instincts and live dangerously lol. I'm pretty sure one of these days my brother is gonna regret ever giving me 1 of his gold cards. Lol

 

Haha, I know it seriously looks so badass without a plate.

 

Pick up my mom from the hospital a while back...i failed to measure. Looked wayyyy close. It was. I scraped on the plastic warning sign then proceeded to be that guy and almost got stuck. Ended up backing up the way I came.
