    What did I do to my Tundra today?

    I drove it home for the first time.

    2021 Limited to replace my 2000 SR5.

    Let the games begin!

    Installed the Gates Complete Serpentine System. Then serviced the frt differential fluid. Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90.
    Had to un - install the TRD Skid plate to use the gates kit. Not a job for the faint of heart.

    Check the build link in my signature.
    I parked MY Tundra at the airport this morning.
    Then flew to Texas
    Then started open brain surgery on someone else’s Tundra

    Continued my FRAC install. Got the camera wire ran through the firewall (that was more of a pita than I thought it would have), then figured out I should have done more planning... The YotaLED's mount works well, didn't realize the middle bar sits more proud than the mesh grid does, so the camera points at the grill itself... Went to Home Depot to figure out what threads the camera uses (M8x1.0), think I'll buy some threaded rod and put some sort of spacer between the YotaLEDs mount and the camera. Might look goofy sticking out like that but I don't want to drill into the grill. Maybe eventually if it works out good I'll do that... For now I taped off the camera plug and left it by the wiper reservoir.

    Also found the clips on my airbox were not fastened, maybe just popped off, maybe the techs at the dealership didn't redo them after checking the filter...

    EDIT: Bought some threaded rod (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2251832626341528.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.21ef1802e9HkQv) Ali had it but Fastenal or McMaster doesn't have any hallow threaded rod, go figure. Also bought some hallow aluminum tube stock to use for a spacer. Will see how ugly it turns out (the tube is black anodized at least)...

    Is it possible to flip the camera 180 degrees so that it is pointing slightly upward vs down?
