What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Same, 3 sets of bushwhacker smooths on my gen 2 and 2.5's and rough country's on my 22 tundra. Fender flares should always be color matched, from a purely aesthetical point of view as well. If and when I do the sequndra conversion Ill do the bushwhacker smooths, again.

 

Anyone have a link to the 2 -12v jack plate 3d print for the back of the armrest please?

 

Just following up. Discount Tire had set them to 37 PSI for both front and rear. I emailed Falken earlier this morning and below is their response. I think I'll drop the front down to 35 PSI and then do a chalk test.


Per Falken Tire:
Your OEM Size (P275/65R18 114 SL) has a load capacity of 2,421 lbs. @ 30 psi. per tire in the front and 2,535 lbs. @ 33 psi. per tire in the rear; if you were staying in a metric size this is the load capacity you want to meet or exceed.

Passenger type tires are fitted with a 10% overage in load capability when used on SUV's, Light Trucks, and Vans because of the difference in load handling. This load overage can be removed when changing to an LT type tire, that brings the effective load capacity to achieve down to 2,201 lbs. in the front and 2,305 lbs. in the rear.


The new size (35X11.50R18LT 117 C) has a load capacity of 2,205 lbs. @ 35 psi. cold in the front and 2,349 lbs. cold @ 38 psi. in the rear; this would be the recommended air pressure for everyday driving.

That's a great follow-up! Thanks! I always thought you put a bit less in your rear tires when rolling empty and increase the PSI when loaded...

 

This one...? Just got mine in today:

 

Yes, but Id like to print my own and I know the file has been shared here before I just cant find it

 

Sent you a PM

 

Any chance you could PM me the same info?

 

PM sent.

 

I just finished up installing my big 'ol deep cycle aux battery. It's not hooked up yet, just bolted in place.

Getting it hooked up and useful will come this week.








For anyone curious, I wrote up the process here: https://www.tundras.com/threads/adding-an-aux-battery-the-best-way.142316/

Dual catch can setup

 

Found in KY as well!

 

Some progress today.

Installed the carrier bearing drop kit and no more vibrations! Issue solved.

 

That’s one thing I miss from my 2008. But the sunroof won’t let me do that to my current rig

 

Really?
I hadn’t ever seen the actual file shared…

 

Let me know if you get anything in the crankcase can. Mine has been bone dry in over 4 years and 37k miles. The pcv can gets a good amount at each oil change.

 

I need to do this!

 

Radium makes a great kit. A bit pricey compared to others, but no complaints here.

 

Did you leave out the 'baking' step of the process???

 

Installing a wireless charger, glued it down and then put black duct tape to help seal board. And will plug in in center console.

 

What charger did you pull those electronics from? How well does it function?

 

What brand are those?

 

Since you’re down there… If you push up and down on the driveshaft, do you have any movement in the bushing?

When I push up and down on the driveshaft next to carrier, I get about 1/4”-3/8” total movement in the bushing. Not sure if that’s normal or bushing is shot. I’ve been experimenting with various sized carrier bearing drops and can’t get rid of my vibration.

 

careful with the fuse that runs that circuit. if you have 3 iphones charging on that same cicuit...it will blow.

I learned this upon taking the fam to a concert* & everyone was charging. and I keep an Ipad, in the center console, on the charger connection under the lid.






*it was The Eagles. and Steely Dan opened. all those dudes got old, but could play like the old days.

 

I did the same an noted similar movement. I took a short vid. for reference. For sure someone here can tell us if this is normal.

Looks like it is normal. Other related post:

 

Wait, what? The can directions don’t mention anything about baking…

 

313 Anker Wireless Charger From Amazon, I have a iPhone 12 and i am using a thin case(got the idea from)

I have a charger that has 2 charging ports (me and the wife) so now 1 is wireless and the other is a wire for her. But thanks for the heads up.

 

Driving around data logging and tuning

 

Had an unexpected day off for Election Day; oil and filter change, cabin and air filter clean and recharge and replaced all of the weatherstrip gaskets on my diamondback HD to better keep the water out. Productive day so far - and now it’s raining so finished just in time
