What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Really? May want to look into that, that doesn't sound confidence-inspiring.

 

Good question just finished alot if work on Tundy. Completely front end redone, AAL, LED everywhere, power steering fluid flush and brake flush. Moving to exhaust just to expensive so looking to maybe putting something together myself.

 

Especially D’s Nutz!

 

No, man, I meant so you could do my brake res like yours. Lol!

 

Figured that's what you meant, but I'm sure your your not close to NJ.

 

No, I'm not but I've got all day. PM you my addy.

 

nut trick?

 

Put inside the reservoir 32 nuts with cleaning solution and shaked. The nuts scrub the inside of the tank.

 

No more, no less!

 

I found out that 20 wasn't enough so I added the rest of what I had. A little more would be better and faster.

But on the other hand Funny joke

 

Literally laughed out loud

 

The RC and AC have the same frame per @empty_lord

 

yes. body mounts are different and possibly some reinforcement.. but the main members should be the same

 

More info on the gussets please. You buy them or you makin them yourself?

 

I did the GM diode mod this evening. My idle voltage went from 13.7 vdc to 14.2 vdc. It peaks around 14.4 vdc. I'll take it.

 

I got the TCs. Ordered them a while back waiting for a time to install them. The diver's side fits well - it's just tacked for now.

 

Awesome. I will let you all know how the expensive as F inline harness from Singer works once I get it. Seeing voltage in the mid 13’s on scan gauge right now.

 

Which is why I think they would be compatible. But I wasn’t sure if Billy does something special with the lines for RC vs AC. I assume not but just didn’t get into specifics with him on that. I feel bad wasting his time on that level of detail because he is so busy. Truly a fantastic guy though and our communication goofs here are a bummer so if there is some way I can help stoke out someone else I will gladly do it.

 

Awesome, is this the part you bought? https://www.tundras.com/threads/04-...-the-3-big-upgrades.67222/page-2#post-2467669

I totally forgot this came in the mail a couple weeks back. Work life has been a little nuts. Not quite 32 nuts, but plenty nuts.

 

Nice. Which LEDs did you put behind the instrument cluster and HVAC controls?

 

I’m definitely curious how the two compare. The Singer product claims 14.8 charging.

 

If my dyslexia hasn’t attacked, they go this way…

 

Whats involved to weld these gussets in? Like what needs to be removed to properly get to the spindles to weld them in? Im thinking of giving this a go down the road and just curious how much of a pain it is to do. Thanks!

 

@oscardog86 when I did mine I pulled the spindles right off the truck. You need to be able to grind the area clean of paint and get in there at funny angles to weld them.

Some say you should pull the hubs and bearings to avoid cooking them but if you do short passes and give plenty of cool down time between they should be fine to leave in.

 

Agreed with everything @Darkness said. I’m doing mine on truck, but am very thoughtful of temps. Off truck is preferred, and if I wasn’t exhausted, would do that.

 

The second one is the backside.

 

When you have 700lb coils, the mere weight of these is not a concern (to me). Flame on

 

Getting there...

 

Mine have been sitting in the garage for over a year... eventually they'll get put on.
