What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Nice. Love the stonework on the house.

 

Here's what I added to my Tunny today. With this great option, you can literally "GO" anywhere!

 

Added a center floor adjustable mounting rail. I have 2 additional rails I may add but wanted to install this for the spare tire three point retention strap.

 

Just had to......

 

Did you wire that switch to your battery, or did you run it into the fuse box? And if the fuse box, which fuse location did you use? Trying to figure that out on my 2020 SR5.

 

Got BF Goodrich KO2s(20s) on it today....a U.S. Rack(aluminum) Galleon Wide Rack last week, and a Ranch Hand cow-catcher(black) a couple months ago. Got a couple of Sawyer racing canoes on it right now(like F-4 Phantoms compared to most canoes I see[DC-3s]).

 

You’ll have to wire it to the battery, then run an Add-A-Fuse to your Ignition fuse.

 

Cargo Glide added recently - Super helpful to access the back of the bed

 

Did an oil change. Had previously installed the fumoto valve, and it's fantastic. Once it got to a slow drip I closed the valve, wiped it up and went about the task of draining the stock filter housing.

This was the last time I'll have to deal with that mess, as I installed the Jowett Performance filter housing with its own fumoto style valve for draining. Oil changes will be far less messy now.

Link to a thread by @Inquiringone about the Jowett as he did it better than I could. https://www.tundras.com/threads/bil...-drain-valve-installation.65512/#post-1715777

Then I put some stuff together in an oil change box. The stock parts and filter tool are in the brown box, just in case, a spare filter, funnel, 2 1/2" socket for the Jowett, and 2 separate 24 inch hoses for the valves to drain oil cleanly. I lined it with shop towels for the minor mess of the funnels and hoses.

Labeled with a paint marker so it should be easy to find the two times a year I need it.

 

It's in the recall notice. If it has evidence of charring or melting, they will replace the headlight assembly.

 

Added these, but having issues with trying to wire one in the dash. https://www.tundras.com/threads/hel...ng-to-replace-rigid-on-off-auto-switch.96174/

 

No, it wired directly to my fuse block under the hood.

I'm still deciding going Duel or Portable Setup.

 

So, while backing into garage, hit the side and busted the driver’s side mirror.

Outer housing busted, but glass untouched
Of course, its the most expensive side mirror made for Tundra (power fold, turn signal, BSM, heat, auto-dim)

trying to figure out an affordable replacement for repair and any assistance is greatly appreciated

These showed up today! Got a project ahead of me..

 

Are the step plates susposed to be lifted like that

 

they aren't attached yet, they are just laying on top.

 

ah ha.. got it.

 

Ouch! Not a mod I would recommend!

Since you are going to spend some cash on it anyway, you might want to evaluate whether you want to replace both mirrors with the larger trailer mirrors. There are some aftermarket mirrors that include most of the extra features.

 

Dont tow enough to make me want a set of tow mirrors. Like the current stock size

Will have to search to see all options I guess

 

Can’t seem to find any aftermarket side mirrors that have the auto-dim…

 

Yeah... first I've heard that. Is that like the mirror in the cab that dims in the evening so headlights aren't blinding?

 

that sucks…I have to power fold mine in/out every time I park in my garage (not that it helps you now)…Just a guess, but you can probably buy any of the Toyota housing models (i.e. one for an SR5) since the mirror/electronics are still intact on yours. Might be worth disassembling the mirror and housing to see how it fits and then just re-attach your components (ie power motor/electronics) in the less expensive housing.

 

Drove it in Tow/Haul mode while not towing. It's kinda beastly like that. Any drawbacks other than fuel economy?

 

Man, beautiful set of sliders.

 

Addiction

 

Right? Friggin BLAST OFF mode.

I used to drive my tacoma in ECT mode (pretty much the same thing from my understanding) all the time. Didn't have any issues. Was nothing compared to that V8 Haul Ass mode.

 

thanks, looking forward to putting them on.

 

I just posted a set for sale in the 2.5 gen marketplace.

Installed the Rear Differential Breather Relocation mod. Thanks go out to @RainMan_PNW Casey for the part numbers and excellent tutorial on his build page.
