Let's see your first gen - photo thread

It’s important to keep your hood lit up on trails

 

But look at that old girl still earning her keep... the dude looks like he is smiling looking at FGV's truck too!

 

% of FGTs who’s fingers hurt and have now pulled landscaping duty in their second life, about 23% based on my observations.

 

There’s a outfit by my work that has at least 5 FGT in their fleet, very popular in the landscaping arts business around here

 

The white turd and my buddy's taco.This was a little while back. We had some of the rare white stuff. (Rare for Arkansas!)

 

A heat gun, ratchet strap and time will help bring that snorkel in closer to the A pillar https://www.tundras.com/threads/series-100-lc-snorkel-on-a-fgt.131956/page-3#post-3405061

AK?

 

I already hit it with a heat gun, but it's been slowly moving back out since then. I'm not really worried about it because I'm not securing the snorkel using the traditional mount point on the pillar. Everything is mounted directly to the fender itself, that way I can swap the fender and that be the only part with any damage. It's AR.

 

Arazona. That's where @FrenchToasty lives

 

nono, it's Assault RifleKansas.

 

I found a friend and a mud puddle.

 

I want to live in a place like this, where you can take this photo, and not give two shits about any traffic.

 

Just a dirty stock truck with 275k miles.

 

Warm enough for a bath and a little love. For what I've got in her I ain't mad at it at all.




Rehab on the steelies held out well through winter/salt

 

Weird thing I have noticed about my truck, the front bumper protrusion is only maybe 2.5". Most every other one I see sticks out way further like 3.5 - 4" or more. Maybe it has to do with how the PO rebuilt this front end? I like her snub nose better, but have yet to figure out why its like that.

 

You do have this giant gap here that mine does not have and your bumper is pushed much further in at the bottom

 

That gap looks bigger than it does in person . Never noticed the bottom being tilted in. It doesn't have the reinforcement bar under the bumper (see pic), you know the double ribbed structural cross member.
But every bolt lines up, I've had it off before and wasn't a struggle to get back on. Aftermarket bumper, it's pretty damn thin metal. I have no skid plate either... Weight reduction bonus!
That apparatus dangling on the passengers side is my DIY fender liners made from those giant tree pots you'd find at a greenhouse place, Ghetto AF but working like a boss.
I almost bought aftermarkets but the reviews were shit, all said they were flimsy cheap, don't buy.

 

I’ve got a brand new crash bar you could have if you were closer.

 

Custom AF

 

Dang man, really nice of you to offer that KNABORES
On a heatmap of this FGT group, I'de be out on a cold fringe, SUCKS! lol

 

Shipping would negate the freeness of it, but if the Tundra delivery system could find a way, it’s all yours. Or drive down for the eclipse and I’ll meet you with it. Gas money required on your end would also negate the freeness of it.

 

I ordered a whole new bumper setup including new fog lights when I smoked some venison on the way to work. When I pulled my mangled bumper, to my surprise the crash bar was unscathed. So I left it on and put the replacement in the shop rafters. Full on @Mr.bee action here. Shield your eyes children.

 

Damn you were lucky, doesn't look like any panel damage either.
I may have access to a chunk of rail... yeah, like railroad rail LOL.

 

Extent of the damage.



Wasn’t as lucky last time. Insurance totaled my truck over these dents.

 

Same, with this, totaled.
(small roof dent you can't see)

 

Obviously I kept it and fixed the front bumper but not the door dents. Badges of honor. Or shame. Whatever

 

Merus?

 

He went to parker. I wanna see some lunch time shade.

@bmf4069 move everything about 20ft further from the road.

 

I didn't realize that was going on now. For some reason I thought it was like an month away.

I want to see lot and lots of pics @bmf4069
