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

I did the ol “ain’t going no where” strap snap, it passed

 

Yes, 2 inch black delron spacers.

 

Update:
For those who took an interest anyway. So I broke down and caved, went up to the local toyota after market shop today. Had one of their techs have a looky-lou at the truck. He said my ball joint issue is most likely from the cheap ass leveling kit one of the owners before me put in. He said that putting in UCAs ment for a 2 to 5 inch lift kit will help the issue, but recommended I put a proper 2/2.5 in lift or get better quality, aka metal, spacers. I explained thats what my suspissions were. Talked to him about the control arms I had been looking at. I settled on and bought the KSP Motor Sports UCA kit. Explained I don't really trail ride or offroad too much, mainly field driving for work sometimes. Shop said they'll be more than fine, they've used and installed them in the past for them mall lot boys lol. No real issues to worry about or note as far as they knew. But they arent for crawling or hard trails and if you abuse them beyond their limits, like anything, they'll fail.

So we'll see how this goes.

 

Still saw spots where City of ATL apparently salted the road, though.

Oooh, this is interesting. But if I install this with a cap, I won't be able to load much of shit into the truck anymore. Neighbor needs help taking a washer in to recycle, stuff like that wouldn't be possible anymore. I'd like to have slide-out storage though.

 

I bet youd like to have things that slide in and out...

 

@shifty` do you remember that GM suv they sold a while back that where the middle section of the rear roof was a canvas material that could be opened up for carrying tall cargo? I don't remember what it was called. You need something similar. Decked system and a cap with that canvas section that can be opened for carrying tall cargo. Lol.

Envoy XUV. It was the Envoy XUV. That's it.

 

Nope, not ringing any bells for me.

Hell yeah. Right down there on the floor with the old in-out. Real savage.

 

Maybe it wasn't canvas but it did open.

 

Someone call Doug DeMurano and have him do the quirks and features of that abomination.

 

You mean Wish.com version of Jay Leno?

 

Doug has his moments, but I can understand how one could form that opinion

 

It’s good to know you can keep the kids caged up back there.

 

Not having to lug around your neighbors junk sounds like even more reason to do it haha

 

One of the last remaining quarter washes left in town was actually open. It's 15 degrees outside so the water froze to the truck as I sprayed I couldn't get out of the wash bay in 2WD.

I'm just happy I got most of the salt and brine off.

 

Trans fluid looks mint

 

You can get a new electrical connector from dealer and easily repin the wires into it

 

Gears are in, about 6 hours for front and rear and driver rear wheel bearing!

Time will tell but I’m liking the pep and way less throttle needed to accelerate at speed

 

I currently have Moogs (Japan made) contacted Moog and wasn't part of recall. Been working fine for 2+ years, maybe 25K Miles. I want a better upgrade and not OE. Link Uniball style with Chromoly arm.

 

Woah woah woah! Put a NSFW tag on that, Hoss! Can’t have no gear porn on here. People gotta work and make a living, can’t have that on my screen!

 

I run Freedom Off Road, 2 years and counting. They work just fine. I had to trim a bit on the inside of one due to my spring rubbing a bit. Other than that, no compliant.

 

What gear set up? New LSD as well?

 

Sweeeetttt!!

 

You not doing the 500 miles under 50mph break-in period with conservative driving?

 

Nope, I had them super polished, no need to break in

 

4.88 nitros and a Elocker in the rear
