What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Awesome thank you! Lastly, where'd you get the switch board.

 

Google CN Designs Tundra and his FB link will come up.
Casey made his himself, but apparently he's some sort of mad scientist genius.

 

Yeah I've seen his build and it's crazy how he can rip apart his entire truck and then put it back together better than how he got it lol appreciate the info!

 

No, just equal parts OCD and Autism with a splash of tourette’s.
Helps I’ve got access to a printer and the software, and I’m a grade-A geek.

 

Nice Rig, how do you like those Rhino RB20s??
First time to see on a DC, most views on a CM. Well done.

Not too bad. I bought the harness from accessorides and the switch panel from CN Designs.

 

so i have a couple of things for tires. i use optimum power clean cut 4:1 in a spray bottle and I use a power drill brush like that. depending on what I have available to do in terms of time will determine what I use. i'll use CoverAll from O'reilleys if short on time. I bought it in a gallon jug and put it in a spray bottle. There is an aerosol, but after liking it, i just bought the gallon. If I have more time available to do a thorough job, i'll get it prepped really well then apply optimum's tire coating. IT'S A TIRE COATING! similar to a ceramic coating, you have to make sure you prep the tires and make sure it can bond well....then you apply the tire coating and you're good for a couple months. it's alot easier to apply on car tires that don't have an aggressive sidewall. i've done it with a microfiber cloth, but it takes more time and effort....so be prepared. look around in the detailing threads and you'll find alot of tire care stuff. hope that helps a bit

 

Thanks Seth. I labored over running boards and steps for several months. I'm not a fan of how running boards look, but function won over form in my case. The RB20's were the best looking boards I found. These are in the bedliner finish.

Pro's:

Traction is excellent. The finish is like 40 grit sandpaper. Various shoes and boots and none slip.
Installation. Simple, although instructions were either missing, or my set included in the box were for a Dodge.
Strong. No flex.
Adjustable. You can turn them front to back and have a wider footprint to the front or to the back. Plus you can adjust them closer to the body or wider away from the body. Mine are currently adjusted outward for more width to prevent parking lot door dings.
They catch dirt and rock sling from the tires very well
Slots on foot boards drain water and snow very well.
They function perfectly as intended. Wide platform and I use them every time I get in and out of the truck.



Con's:

Bed liner finish is $$$
They look like running boards
They stick out far enough that it makes reaching into the console awkward from outside the truck. I can do it, but a reach.

 

Love It!

 

Bigfoot tells people he had seen me but no one believes him

 

Where did these bed lights come from...super clean looking install!!

Man, I'm at 8919 this morning; only had mine about 4 months too. What's your commute like? I was doing 100 miles to and from work from when I got the truck until last month.

Did a ton of traveling around the North East so that accounts for roughly 3-4k miles on the truck.

 

I’m 60 miles round trip each day for commute, except for 1-2 trips to Seattle every month. One day a week to the ski hill (~140 miles round trip). And then day trips on the weekends. If I’m going somewhere, we’re going in my truck.

 

Hah, sounds about right. I've been taking 2-3 trips to NYC or Boston every month and to either Okemo or Mount Snow every 2 weeks or so.

Fiance tells me to take her little Acura RSX, even though it'll save gas and keep me from freaking out with my mileage going up, I'd rather have her be comfortable than all bumpy with her RSX's suspension.

 

Definitely agree on this. Had rented an F250 last year and when driving that, the tow mirrors on those Fords are amazing.

 

Haven't seen a DC TRD Pro in a while... looks beautiful!

 

It appeared the DC Pro's were going away there for a bit. No Pro's at all in 2018, then no DC Pro's in 2019 or early 2020. Mine has a build date of Aug. 2020. I don't know if they were making them in winter/spring of '20. But, I've seen several of the Lunar Rock DC's in '21. And, I've yet to spot another AG DC Pro. Must be a rare bird?

 

Converted my key and fob to a flip key. No reprogramming needed, moves the internal bits from the fob and and the chip inside the key to the new flip key housing. Only had to get the new key cut.

 

Link? That thing is slick

 

Didn’t do anything to #belugathetundra today, aside from taking this nice photo of her!

Glad I work in a warehouse so that all these parts I order later are cheaper for shipping with a commercial address.

 

Received and installed RCI fuel skid. Anxiously awaiting the engine and trans skids.

 

No mods just kool looking pic.

What parts did you use to mount your traction boards and what boards are those? Looks really good and pretty easy install

 

M10 threaded rod and some electrical K line with the M10 bed rail cleats . Worked great and solid as a rock. Had to get longer M10 threaded rods today to finish it up.

 

Put on my rhino trailer hitch lock.
