What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Took out my Proclip for a wireless charger and wireless Carplay. If you haven't done wireless Carplay I highly recommend it. If you are interested in the proclip let me know.

 

Nothing! Just took a pic! LOL

 

I noticed a tug in the steering wheel while turning right full-lock the other day and finally got under the truck to inspect the tie rods. Driver side looked fine, but the passenger side is weeping grease at the boot and was turned upward clockwise. I'm guessing it's fooked, so now I'm curious if I need to replace with OEM or if these would work fine?

I'll try to get a closer pic of the ball joint if that helps.

 

Didn’t someone just have a post about shitty non oem tie rods?

 

I wouldn't doubt it, but that's why I'm asking... I know most of the time it's better to go OEM, but something like this that's already a wearable item I figured maybe there's an aftermarket option (not the baller Coachbuilder ones...) that works just as well.

 

Go baller!!! +30% turn radius or something like that.

 

I used a replacement from napa for the last year and I haven't had any trouble with it. Saved me a few bucks from having to source a toyota one.

 

Sometimes the best mod is to just sit there and admire how beautiful Tundras are.

 

yeah I have cooper AT3 4S now and am running around 36 but max PSI on those is like 45 I believe.

 

Raptorized it

 

just ordered a set myself earlier today. how do you like them so far? hows the quality?

 

You get them from yotaleds? If so, the quality is great, and the install couldn't be easier.

 

Yep, yota leds. Awesome, thanks!

 

Black aftermarket shift knob. Missing the "TRD" logo but for half the price I'll take it.

 

I'll never tell...

 

Got some new shoes today! Upgraded the factory Dunlop car tires to cooper at3 4s and very happy with them. Much more aggressive looking than in pictures. There very quite on the highway and the truck handles a bit better now

 

been pretty happy with them as well - had them almost 15k. Definitely prefer the more aggressive look the the KO2’s that I had prior but these do ride better and still have some good tread.

 

Is there any visible differences between when you got it back from lift vs now?

 

Are your headlights tinted? If so, then with what?

 

Just the giant section of rock rash on the lip of my wheel that corresponds to when that corner started to act funny…
I rotated it back to parallel and it seems fine, so I’ll just keep an eye on it. Pretty sure it’s self inflicted, not the fault of the shop that did my lift.

 

Can you share the link where you purchased it? Thank you

 

No they are just the factory led lights on the sport package.

 

Nice! I’m down by Wolcott. Maybe we’ll catch each other on the 84!

 

Did a thing:
Icon Vector 5s in bronze
Grabber X3s 35x12.5

 

Installed some new custom bedside decals on. Came out perfecto.

Make sure to select the no switch option if you just want them to run all the time. It'll save you $20.

 

I’ve only been to a couple times but thinking of going again to try and sell off some of the stuff I took off the truck. Mark‘s auto parts in East Granby does a cruise night periodically. Next one is this coming Monday night. If you’ve never been it’s worth going at least once to check it out. if you do go give me a heads up.

 

New Bilstien 5100 level lift with new 33’ Mikey Thompson Baja Boss sneakers

 

What size tire did you get?

 

I used the new PSI from the Calculator and have it set it to 38 and 41, which seems as the truck has to work a little harder to get up and go. As long as the tire wears out evenly and i get the most MPGs and wear i will need to figure out the exact tire pressure that i will just set it to for daily driving. I keep lookin online and cant really find the right numbers to be as the gauge and keep it at that PSI.
