    If you have NAV and open the NAV App up on the head unit and click on the compass in the top left screen till It shows North up. Will it change the red dial to a Tundra?

    Like my Tacoma below

    It's a valvomax. The truck had a fumoto before for about 5 years but without the nipple and I wanted something with a hose to clear an engine skid. I think the stainless steel can handle a slightly higher torque and it has a funky crush washer with rubber wipers that might seal better. The fiber washer on the fumoto always had a tiny bit of weep to it.

    The OEM drain plug washers are fiber too. Maybe the Fumoto wasn't tight enough? :notsure:

    Does your truck have a leveling kit on it or lifted? How much? I'm looking at 35x12.5x18 Recon Grapplers on some SCS +25 rims. Was wondering about clearance.

    My dealer must have a different supplier. I have a few OEM washers leftover that are aluminum with a rubberized coating. If the valvomax one doesn't seal completely I may try one.

    The fumoto was as tight as I dared with brass. I've snapped brass fittings off of pneumatic manifolds at work and it's a pita to get your threads back. It wasn't a lot of weep either. Never a drip on the floor. Just enough to collect dust all over the valve and adjacent area of the pan before the next change.

    Gotcha...that makes sense. I picked up some filters from the dealer about a week ago and he gave me a 10 pack of the washers. They are a blue colored fiber.

    I looked that boat up. Seems like a clean one is a pretty good deal! Interested in how it treats you.

    Do you know if it's possible to change or remove the bolts on your fender flares?
    I'm looking at these right now but also in process of chrome delete inside and out.

    The bolts can be removed and replaced. There is a company that sells black ones.

    I bought black stainless nickel plated button head bolts off eBay. They have sets to replace fender flair bolts.

    Pre-Collision System fail, Trailer Brake fail, ABS fail, and Traction Control fail all at once. Time for a new battery!

    That said, have any of you people done an engine bay cleaning? It seem that this truck’s engine bay gets filthy easier than any other vehicle I’ve had. I can get Simple Green pretty much on tap at work so I figure covering that electronic stuff and getting after it is the best option.

    I just used some de-greaser paint prep spray after using some soap and water. I just used shop towels and wiped down the surfaces I cared about. Maybe dilute the simple green some and you should have no problems, plus it will smell nice and probably push that scent into the cab even if its initially a bit strong lol

    My parents had the 21' version when i was in high school so I'm very familiar with the boat. I've had it for about 3 weeks now and it is fantastic. It was very well taken care of. It runs great.
