What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Nice setup. Mine is still in work lol.

 

The mounts you made are awesome! Mine keeps rotating the same so maybe I'll have to do something similar...

 

Replaced the stock battery after 2 years and 2 months. Costco definitely has the best deal on a 27F.

 

Another step closer in my SP9100 install - it's powered up but not hooked up to anything yet. I need to loom the wiring and do some routing cleanup, but need to finish the bumper first.

 

It was a lot of work but at least I have piece of mind that it’s not going to move. I over built mine like I do everything but it’s solid as it’s can be. I made the main hanger brackets out of thicker stainless and made the aluminum pieces with grooves and second screw slot so I could mound the hangers and slide the light on and off until I got the angle adjusted. I still had to unbolt hangers to mount light to brackets but it did make it easier getting light set to correct angle. I’m sure that there are simpler solutions for making light stay in place but I like to make things bomb proof as possible. I was told that Hotshot offroad is designing something that should be coming out in the next month or two. Diode Dynamics shouldn’t even sell that bracket that comes with the light. It’s just junk. I did trim the inside plastic around edge around the bumper to give me a little extra room and I milled the aluminum brackets a little thinner in the finished product but didn’t take any pictures. Bracket just need to have two screws on each end to stop it from moving. This could be done with bracket that came with light by drilling a second hole. From what I’ve read other have said that the brackets, that came with light, were not rigid enough for the weight of the light and would sag so I went with thicker brackets. Hope this gives you some ideas. Good luck.

 

this is on my wish list

 

I spy a MT09? Judging by the s23 Bridgestone

 

Hope you never need to get into that fuse box.

 

Who makes that power distribution box, or was that a custom build too?

 

Gave mine a bath by hand at home. It was pretty flirty after running all over sw fl checking on homes for clients and helping people
Where we could. First time in 5 years I have washed a vehicle in my driveway.

 

Looking Sharp!

Is that front bumper plastidipped?

 

I built it myself. I just welded 1/8 stainless plate together to make the metal box and milled and slotted the grey plastic. My friend printed the cover. The bottom has a area left open so that you can push wire through.

 

Four screws and two bolts and it all comes off. The connectors for everything are set so that I can unplug or unscrew a terminal and the whole thing lifts off easily.

That, and I don’t anticipate needing in there very often. In 12 years and 300k miles on my last Tundra, I never once had to get into that box.

 

I was gonna say that I've seen your thread I'm pretty sure you planned ahead.

 

Fair enough...I agree that rarely does it need to be opened, but when I saw the bolts, my first thought was hope he carries tools always...just in case...

 

That is really sick. Thanks for sharing the additional picks! Definitely gonna start thinking about something for my Rigid light bar

 

I'm a Vols fan with a Blacked out 2020 Tundra. I have a simple Power T on my back window, a TN Vols license plate holder and a black with orange power T on my front plate. The red TRD wheel caps on my rims was driving me NUTS....so I painted them to match the orange touches on my truck. Added some orange valve stem covers too and now I'm happy! This is an fairly easy mod for anyone that doesn't like the red color on the wheel caps. Picked up some sanding sticks and model paint at my local Hobby Lobby. Used fine point Qtips that I also got at HL and finished with a clear coat after the paint cured.

 

Good eye! Close though, it's an 07, 2020.

Nothin like a flirty Tundy...

 

Just installed my finger grips from @2020Platinum.





More info from his YouTube video:

 

Sort of silly… unneeded exhaust tip fell into my hands.

 

what did you paint it with?

And maybe consider painting the clamp and bolt. It will make it disappear from view when installed.

 

Went offroad with a rivian this weekend. It is surely a nice vehicle and surprisingly capable off road.

 

Thanks now I don’t want to take it out of the garage lol. Not plasti dip those are the eco bumper shell covers. They have held up very well through many automated car washes also. I’m very happy with them.

 

Few more pieces on the way closing in on the final items for baja

 

Got my tires re-balanced - had an annoying vibration at highway speeds.

Drove it on the highway to the next town and back. All good now

 

That's great to hear as I just ordered a set for my truck!

 

I installed the pedal commander yesterday and removed it today and will be returning it. I was skeptical of its value but a bunch of people swear by them so I thought I'd give it a shot. It's nice to make the pedal a little more sensitive but not $315 nice in my opinion.

 

You didn't like it? I have 2 of them....they make a world of difference in throttle response.

 

I do like it, it did give the pedal a nicer feel on city +1 but after driving it a bit I came to the conclusion it doesn't hold $315 worth of value to me. I'd rather spend the money on something else.
