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

Huh. Are you my urologist? You sound like my urologist.

Seriously though, if you don't have one of these in your toolbox, you should. Everyone should. All the times I hear people complaining about their nuts on here, this is a really cheap and easy solution. The easiest solution is always to crack the nut, sparing the bolt. Us dudes sacrifice nuts all the time, funny how we're so gung ho about penetrants and cutting off shafts when all you need to do is bust a nut, problem solved.

Yeah, that's how I have it right now but haven't tested yet. Add a fuse was a solid move, thanks @empty_lord for the suggestion. I had exactly one which wasn't a micro, I think mini is the one with longer legs which works. Hopefully my overpriced inline harness arrives soon and I can revert back to the fuse.

For that nutcracker, do they come in metric or do I just get those standard ones and live with the shame of Imperial units?

 

Also if anyone knows the part number for grille nuts, lol, I'd be game for more of them. They look the same as the ones for the headlights?

 

they make a lefthand and right hand nutcraker. make sure you get the proper one..

 

Maybe this will help, so you can peg off which of the two or three it is here: https://parts.toyota.com/a/Toyota_2...5510_6710576/RADIATOR-GRILLE/841420-5351.html

That's the page specifically for my truck, I presume yours will be same but not sure.

I mean ... it doesn't care whether the nut is imperial or metric, it just wants to bust it. (you'll hafta live with the markings from factory though)

 

You forgot about the center nutcracker.

 

After 2.5 months of waiting for my reflashed ECU from R9K, I finally got it in the mail and installed it yesterday. And of course no start. Have to program the ECU to the IMOBI. unfortunately my Autel Maxi can't program it, only programs remotes.

 

What year is your truck that it's got immobilizer? I didn't think that existed in the '00-'06 models.

 

PS - more parts arrived today for future plans! Thanks, @wandering_boy !!

 

2007. I'm pretty sure mine has IMOBI.

 

Ah! Sorry for the confusion. You're posting it in the 1st gen 00-06 forum. Had to doubletake that one!

We do have a few 1st gen guys with the inferior later-model gens, I just assumed you might've been one of those dudes.

 

Heading to Deaver right now to pick up my leafs. One step closer.

 

Drive safe. What springs did you get?

 

‘07 sequoia

The suv’s were a little behind the pickups.

 

No worries, I think my Sequoia is still considered 1st gen, produced in 2006 and still has the 4.7

 

Behind? Wouldn't that mean the pickup had but the Squaw didn't? It just dawned on me @KingSequioa007 has a Sequoia. I'm so dense. I thought it was an '07 Tundra. Reading comprehension > me.

 

Yup. That just dawned on me. I'm a re-re.

 

Sure were, just wish they installed the 5.7 that year!

 

Custom. For 2-3” lift w shell and 400 lbs over stock. Hope they know wtf they are doing. We shall see if fox can ever deliver on the rear shocks.

 

I bet those are nice, let us know. Did you order the shocks yet? I had a fox order with one outfit and after weeks or months they had no idea when they would get them. Cancelled that order when I found some guys that would assemble them for me (reservoirs) and had them in under a week.

 

Yeah, @memario1214 spent a ton of time getting the 411 for me on them. I have the coil overs and soon the leafs so it’s just the rears. Getting antsy.

 

I will not miss the stock suspension one bit.

 

I still have a tad to do, but I am pumped on my suspension, sounds somewhat similar to where yours is going.

 

I’m closer to nipping at @empty_lord ’s heels

 

Figure out direction? Got mine yesterday. I think it's whatever direction does not light up he batt light.

Saw that @shifty` said arrow forward.

 

Yep, forward for max power!

 

After blowing a plug, that’s been in for about 1.5 years, in DV and running down Lippincott pass with no spare it’s time for some new shoes. Really wish more companies made a 35/10.5r17!!

 

Any word on an oval fog light bracket for our trucks?

 

Deaver acquisition.
