What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

RCI, they are 9 miles from my house..but still solid as shit (I hope)...at some point I’ll deal with it, but now is not the time!

 

Please report back how it is, I’m also looking at this one myself and curious how it holds up. I went aftermarket with my Tacoma because it’s not worth what Toyota wants IMO.

 

Only time mine noticeably bounced was when I got new tires and they were out of balance. Had the wheels balanced by someone who knew what they were doing, and the bouncing quit.

 

Mine drove me crazy. I took it off.

 

The only ground I touched was the one on the driver's side strut near the fuse box, since that's the one Boost Auto recommended for grounding the mirrors. I tightened it back down really well, and the mirror folding is working gangbusters. It's tying those rear-facing spots into the cargo lights where I think I may have blown a fuse or a relay (though I didn't hear anything snap, crackle, or pop).

I also checked out the diagrams you posted for tapping into the cargo lights, and it's very different from what I have on my 2021. The white connector that I think is the 3K connector has only two rows of pins, not the two-row/three-row combination in your diagram. There's a virtually identical white connector that goes up into the dashboard, instead of down the door jam conduit. I unplugged each connector in turn to test whether that would power off the cargo lights and/or the interior lights, and they stayed lit even with every white and blue connector disconnected. Then I looked for the pink wire you mentioned in the door jam conduit, and my truck has three pink wires running toward the back; one that's a larger gauge, and two that are smaller gauge.


I forgot how much fun it is buying a new auto when there aren't yet any official mfr docs released. Guess I'm going to have to squirm under the dash and check every fuse.

 

Quitter

I was in the same situation, 38 gal tank and no one to help. One of those bendy magnetic tools and some tape let me get it in there.

 

Well you got to admit the Chevy guys know where to park to make their's look better.

 

That connector isn’t 3K. 3K is plugged directly into the fuse panel on the front of it, and has a massive latching thing holding it into place.

 

I drove my Tundra to shop today to install 3" Coachbuilder shackles. Tried installing myself but bushings kicked my butt. Check out the RAKE!!

 

Got these lp9s mounted and wired!!!

 

Who makes this bumper?

 

Here’s a screenshot from the bed light instructions that shows where the 3K connector is located (the instructions point out 3H, but 3K is just above it).

As for the three pink wires - it will be one of the smaller ones. Pin 28 in the 3K connector is going be a 22 or 20 AWG wire, not the larger 18AWG that you also found.

 

AJT designs never disappoints.

I’ll pm you my address and I expect this “bendy” tool pronto!

 

You got that reverse squat going on Jeff

 

We got a torrential downpour today and lots of streets flooded. Took me about 2-3 hours to get home from trying to pick up my other 2 daughters. My brother in law and his dad were on the way to pick up his son and got my 2 daughters while there....in a canoe! He said I would have made it with my lift. But him and his dad didn't have a high enough truck. I drove through 3 spots that had water a lil below my doors, with me having a 6" lift and 35s. Glad I had done the rear diff breather mod a while back. I'll check it later on to make sure its OK. This spot isn't that bad as it was only about a foot deep. It was when I got south of town that it was pretty bad. There was one spot i saw a car drove through that the water was sitting half way up their windows, everyone turned around when they saw that.

Everyone pokes fun at the lifted truck until they need to cross through water thats too deep.

 

Toyota Submarine says here, hold my Beer.

I’m not sure our trucks would make that even with a snorkel.

I would never try it, way too many electronics would be hosed in this thing.

 

I have no idea how it keeps running, snorkel or not. It completely amazes me.

 

Well my ham radio and my aftermarket audio amp, both under the front seats would be toast for sure.

 

Also installed my AJT handle covers. They look great, one rubs a bit so I will work on it. Overall happy with how they turned out.

 

Yep, motivation to buy some coilovers now.

 

Nice addition, if u ever decide to sell for some reason reach out. I've been waiting patiently to find some slightly used.

 

Just added a few ambers

 

Lake Charles??

 

yes sir

 

Lake Charles has had a rough year... 2 hurricanes, and now flooding...

I replaced the stupid disintegrated antenna grommet today, one less noise the truck makes

 

Just outside Houston and we got slammed yesterday evening with rain nd thunderstorms. Currently at a shop waiting to get the front end checked after hitting a massive pothole. Just had an alignment a week and a half ago when I installed my shocks! Getting a pop and shift/jump(?) when turning.
