What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Is it not beneficial to upgrade the center dash speaker?

 

If you do sail panel tweets, you wouldn't hear it anyway.

 

Santa hooked me up with some Up Country Fab ladder bars

 

Got my fender flare back on with the cherakoted button head bolts and ppf under flares. I think it looks a lot better than the plain stainless bolts.
Before

after

 

Much better

 

Most def looks better! I bought mine from Lund and they lasted a good bit before fading. Yours will probably last longer with the cerakote.

 

I hope so. I bought a set of nickel plated stainless bolts off eBay first. The finish didn’t look that great and they were bigger that the original bolts and would require drilling out the holes so I decided to get the original bolts coated instead. I have a local guy that cerokotes guns that has a shop close to the house. So far I’ve had him powder coat my tow hook, cerakote my bed rack, trailer hitch, and stealth bar bumper light bracket that I built. It really seams like a very tough coating so far and looks great. Hopefully it will hold up to the elements.

 

Awesome. I’m not sure how deep I’ll go. But I’m not done.

 

Finallllllly got to give it a good wash, way long over due

 

Hey, so what did you end up running for tires on your rig??

 

I ended up goin with 35x12.5 Toyo AT3’s (in load range D) with Spidertrax 1.25” spacers. Threw on the coachbuilder bumper shims and have no rub anywhere Really loving the toyos, they’ve been doin great in the rain up here

 

Very nice... Looks good on your rig!!!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

 

Bought a mini dump truck straight from Japan via https://carfromjapan.com/

Drove down to Savannah, picked it up at the port and had the Tundra tow it back home. I think it could almost fit in the loooooooooooooooooooong bed.

 

That is a cool ass little truck.

 

Thx bud - more pics

 

Great looking utility truck! Did you have to do anything to it for emissions/entrance into the U.S.?

 

That’s cute
I want one

 

Nothing for emissions for GA. US Customs and a ton of other paperwork in the process needed with a lot of fees - but should be worth it!

 

You passed up on this sweet Hilux

 

that site is an interwebs corner of old school coolness -

 

That thing is bad a$$!!!!!!!

If you don't mind me asking.... what did that end up setting you back, and then how much to have it transported/imported to the US??

 

That is super clean and will probably run forever!!!!

 

Thanks man - it was cheap for the truck, under $2k - and then another $2500ish in various fees and paperwork to get it to the US. It's a 1990 - so 32 years old - and in great shape!

 

Thanks man!! Happy thanksgiving to you and your family as well, hope it was a great one!

 

Swung by my parents house to grab their ‘21 trail edition and have RAS installed

 

How much lift did this add? HD set I assume?

 

I didn’t measure before and after but I hear it adds about 1.5 inch.
I don’t be alive it’s heavy duty. I think RAS only offers one kit

 

They have two - standard and HD

 

Negative, I have the HD version on my truck.

 

Is it a diesel?
