What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

What coils/shock you go with ? Looks good, I just had Billy 4600 replace the oem platinum black stockers, they were almost perma stuck at 78k miles. Kept the original springs because not looking for height, as my truck barely squeaks in the garage with only an inch or so from the top.

Also got some ARK's to replace the pathetic 2-pc wheel liner ..Ark Splash Guards - Safeguard Your Vehicle

 

Can't go wrong with Arks

 

Since my first car, I have always hidden a key somewhere on it in case I need it. This has served me well. Keyless or not. LOL

 

Nice, I assume you installed them ? ...did you take wheel off or just work around it ? Seems easy enough to take tire off but why do extra steps if not needed

 

I didn't have to but I have a LOT of room in my wheel well

 

RIght because if it hails or something I will be out there laying on the truck protecting it....LOL! Went with 7 ft sides so she fits when I change the wheel set up!

 

But wouldn’t that make it easy for anyone to just walk up and open the door?

 

with keyless entry the truck won't lock with the fob inside unless the fob has been disabled, I'm assuming that is what they've done to be able to store a fob inside the truck at all times.

 

A fob can be "turned off" which prevents it from receiving radio signals. You can then hide it on the truck for use in emergencies.

 

Keyless entry includes smart handles (or whatever they’re called). I keep my keys on my belt loop. I just grab the handle, and the truck automatically unlocks for me because it senses the key fob on my hip.

If the key isn’t *right there* next to the door, they don’t work. I put my keys on top of a rear tire, and the smart handle wouldn’t activate. So, if he stashes it next to the spare tire or somewhere under the rear of the truck, it’s all good. Especially if he turns it off.

To do so, just hold the lock button and press unlock twice. The red light will blink four times, and the fob is now turned off. Press any button to turn it back on.

 

yep, I disable mine every time to prevent possible theft from cloning the signal.

 

yes, if it is far enough away but if the fob is inside the truck and not disabled, the doors will not lock. When going hiking one time my wife left her purse in the center console and her spare fob was in there, when I went to lock doors with my fob it wouldn't lock until I disabled her fob.

 

Yep, but if it’s a hide-a-key, it wouldn’t go in the truck. That would defeat the purpose.

 

lol, true

 

I would not hide a key on the truck unless it was in something like this. I need to mount mine still.

 

Where/how do you plan on mounting that? Some people have used those on trailers for raft shuttling. Unfortunately, they have to be mounted so they can be used and then they are visible to theives who can defeat them in a few seconds.

I have had a hide-a-key on all of my vehicles for the last 40+ years and if you place them properly they can not fall off and are almost impossible to find. It has never worried me.

Added a grease nipple I see.

 

What does the pad do to your dash speakers?

 

I'm guessing you disabled the fob so anyone can't just walk up to your truck and....

 

Nada

 

Swapped out my trucks Roku.

 

Swapped out the tundra bed cleats for Tacoma ones. Black, more options for tie points, same weight rating of 220lbs and you don’t have to slide them all the way to ends of the bed rails to remove them.

 

The past week got tires rotated and balanced and an oil/filter change. Just clocked 60k miles on my 2016.

I have the OR package wheels, have been considering purchasing some aftermarket wheels that are a bit wider and bit less offset, but can't seem to find any I like.

Crazy when you have the cash in hand for an upgrade/mod but can't find the item or part that you like enough to buy.

 

With?

 

Used the Tundra to haul my Oldsmobile to the track today. Guy across from me had a 2022 Tundra, said he’s liking it for towing his car.

 

Went from the Roku HD to the Roku Express 4K. It was on sale for $29.00. The reason I changed it is because the Express has a stronger remote receiver. I put the HD under the dash below the glove box and it wouldn't pick up the remote unless I held it over the passenger seat and pointed it towards the floor. I stuck the Express inside the glove box and closed it and it still worked right through the door. So now the Express is mounted under the glove box and non-issues with it picking up the remote. I even gained the voice remote with the upgrade. We even have the Express mounted on the back of 2 TVs where you can't even see them. Roku made the signals alot strong on that model. I'll stick the HD on our TV at work.

 

Nice! Those 442's are some bad ass cars!

 

Really nice 442! It appears that you may race it. Would you please share with us more details on the car and what you do with it such as race? I'm highly interested!
