What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

What’s crazy is that there’s ONE company (Colonial) whose pipeline controls 45% of the gas for the entire east coast!?!?!
A company mind you that also had one of the worst gas spills (ever) last year in NC. They also had several spills in 90’s.
‘Makes me think this company needs some serious help...or competition!

Around me (GA) the media-fueled-“don’t panic”-panic has now caused ALL the stations to run out.

 

Has anyone replaced their taillights with LEDs? I smoked my taillights and want to replace the bulbs that came with it for stopping.

Suggested brands for a 2021 Limited? Thanks in advance.

 

VLEDS...they are pricey but worth it.

 

removed the toyota tube steps in prep for weld on rock sliders being installed Thursday





Will be selling the stock tube steps with a few dings.. what would be a fair price local only also have an exrta set of passenger side brackets

 

Necessities

 

Stage 1 Eibach 2.5" lift/level in the front and 1" in the the rear.

SPC upper control arms

34 inch Toyo AT 3's

Removed TSS Decals

About 1 week out for 10 inch BA Muffler to arrive....

 

Installed half of my AJT blackout kit, still waiting for my climate knobs and V3 shifter to show up.
I also got a MESO customs red TRD push to start butting that will go on when I do the climate and 4x4 selector

 

OVTUNE w/ Torque Modifier

 

Nice!!

 

Got today my RCI steel skid plate. Took about 5 weeks to fab & deliver and about 20 minutes to install. It is beefy! The stock tin can TRD Offroad skid plate was smashed and torn in icy crusty spring snow recently.

Also got Wet Okole seat covers. First I need to clean the fabric with Tornador, kids make it mildew-prone in a blink of an eye. Don't want a new life growing under the neoprene covers.

Lastly, I gave up on my inconsistent stick welds, hit a trigger on Eastwood MIG-140 and now fabricating a stake holder posts that will serve as a weight distribution base for the Leer camper shell support frame. Need it for the roof rack and RTT. The frame will be mounted inside the shell.

 

Revenue generation, or did you just turn 50 and starting to shed items in your bucket list?

 

Had a flowmaster 40 put on. Had my local muffler shop fabricate me the pipes and slapped on a couple of Black TRD tips.

Installed my meso customs TRD red button with AJT trim

 

My 2021 Tundra saw it's first tornado ... my 2008 Tundra saw over 150.

 

Installed the Pioneer DMH-WT7600NEX

 

How do ya like it so far? My HU is starting to freeze every once in a while.

 

Holy shit. I'd be moving out.

 

I put it just last night.. but after putting an Apple CarPlay unit in my wife's car last year, I was sold and needed it in the Tundra =)
Initial impressions are that the unit is sort of quirky, but I love the 720p screen and wireless CarPlay. Definitely needed some audio level tweaking in my Platinum's JBL system.. at first I thought something was wrong like I had the wrong harness or was missing some connections for the amp. Turns out I just needed to play with the levels. Still more tweaking and playing to be had!

 

I got my Demello sliders finally installed today.

 

Had a 3.5 in lift 2 weeks ago and went with new tires on OEM TRD wheels. Truck looked too narrow so added new spidertrax spacers. very happy with how it looks now.

 

Awesome! Looks great!

 

Looks good from the back. Any pics from other viewing angles, @Enzof104? Also, dimensions of tires?

 

Okay so late this afternoon I picked up my truck after dropping it off at the film shop yesterday morning. I had Xpel clear protective film installed on the entire front end of the truck. It extends about 18" or so deep on the hood and fenders and about 5" deep onto the TRD hood scoop. Anything that is white on the front is now protected as well as the headlamps, back of the mirrors, door handle cups and door edges In addition I had the driver and passenger side front windows tinted with Xpel XR 30 ceramic tint. It is almost a perfect match in "darkness" of the factory tinted glass on the rear and back windows. I brought this truck home new last Friday and did not drive it except to the film shop where it has been the last two days to avoid any rock dings before having this film installed. Since they finished up the bottom bumper this morning the guy asked me to try to not drive it until tomorrow afternoon. The guy is a perfectionist and keeps it overnight after installing on the hood to ensure the engine is not run as the heat from the engine could cause issues early on. I had this same product on my Accord and it is amazing how great that car looked after 3.5 years of driving up and down interstate 35 with its constant construction zones. This is the first thing I do to every vehicle I buy.

Next I plan to install the door sill protectors and am really thinking about the grab handle...not sold on that yet.

 

didnt get a chance to take any others. Probably went a little small with the tires but the spacers helped a lot. Went with 275/70/18 instead of the 295s. It was less than an inch difference but saved 13#s per corner.

 

So the interior black out took another step forward today. Man this has come a LONG way in 3 months. Steering wheel. Center console. New seats. And tonight the new center pillars were installed.

 

Where do I find this service in my area?

Finally got around to installing the fumoto for oil drain pan and jowett performance with ez drain for the oil filter housing. Looking forward to no spilled oil next change!

 

Looking good! Part number?

 

What is this ez drain oil filter housing you speak of? Never heard of it. Must research

EDIT: found it...it's sold out
