What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Yeah, what @shifty` said.

 

Changed the oil in both the truck and the beater

I might be able to disassemble and reassemble a x20 like Forrest Gump now!!!
@shifty` i happened to find 4 tubes of super lube looking for a 4mm Allen!

call me crazy but I wanted less of a wire mess with my winch, so I turned the winch 180 to have the motor terminals closer to my battery and solenoid box, I wanted the terminals facing towards the radiator but the casing had a dowel pin and only two positions to seat into, so this is where I’m at now. I also realize forward will be reverse when I click the controller, I think I can just swap two leads if I can’t remember that little detail…..

 

Feels so good to cruise at night in the V6 again.

 

I was like "QT night? wtf is that?"

Then I realized A and Q are next to each other on the 'ol keyboard, and ... ah. Cruising AT night.

 

Yes... "AT"

 

I wasn’t going to question it. Thnx.

 

Yes, indeed, it does feel good to cruise Automatic Transmission at night...

(just giving you shit, bro)

(It also feels good to ride QTs at night, too)

 

So I ended up buying the Addco rear sway bar. Got that installed and removed the front sway bar. Went camping for a few days afterwards and gotta say it felt really good on the windy highway out to the desert. The rear end felt planted unlike before especially with all the weight back there. The front sway bar being gone didnt feel bad at all and dare I say it felt more stable with my rear sway bar only setup now.

But removing the front sway bar or adding 33s or combination of the two definitely had me rub my fender a couple times coming down a little drop off with decent speed when i was offroading. So I got bored back at camp and removed my bolt on factory fender flares. Wasnt sure how Id like it but i much prefer the clean look of them removed!

 

You for sure can just swap the wires at the solenoid.

 

Pretty sure it’s C and D but I will verify

 

It's been a while since I've messed with a winch but it's for sure not the big chonky boy wires

 

Oh yea and heres some pictures of the camping trip. Went to Anza Borrego state park. Camped with the 15 year old pup for 3 nights.

 

Decided to build a platform in the bed with some wood lying around the garage. Primarily to put boards under so they can stay protected and cool in the summer. Very simple design, not the strongest but it can hold probably around 200-250lbs before breaking/falling apart.

 

Timing belt/water pump job almost done. Next is all fluids, filter, and lube. Does this throttle body housing look a little crummy to you? Only pic I have for now.

 

Yes, some TB/carb cleaner and a toothbrush will make quick work.

 

Definitely this. You can see cake where the butterfly rests.

 

New rotors, pads, and plugs today. Put in 5100's in the rear a few days ago. Thinking sumosprings soon to help with the sway. Got to finally test the 4wd in Tahoe last weekend. She crusssshed it

 

Sweet camper thing!!!

 

Took the words out of my brain! Did @Erik1989 build that himself? It looks really good+

 

I’d like one!

 

The shells are custom made in So Cal http://belairshells.com/custom-camper-shells. Found this one on FB marketplace for half off, never used.

 

Score!!!

 

Finally had some time to throw out the Xmas tree and some limbs that fell last storm. Can’t wait till I can have a burn pile!!

 

I don’t know about @Mr.bee but that looks good enough burn pile to me!

 

skip the vvti and get some kelford cams. Grind it out for thick bearings.

 

If I could only have one here. The hoa would have the FD here in 30 seconds! Planning to buy some real property this spring/fall and can burn all I want.

 

green wood gets loud.

oh, and i learned how to make gifs, so thats a thing.

 

I wouldn’t have guessed you were in a HOA there. Is all of Cali a HOA? Hahah
We have some here, mainly in the newer track homes, and trailerhoods. We don’t usually get a tree because of climate beliefs(I’m full of shit hahha) but my neighbors do! And I snagged a smaller/ish one and burnt it in the bum barrel, I thought my next door neighbor had to of seen it, but he didn’t. The next time he saw me he’s like you should have taken ours!!!
