    Very sharp looking truck!

    What size tires you running on the stock rims and wheel spacer width? Something about wider tires on stock rims, just looks nice.

    Thank you. The lighting made it pop for some reason.

    Tires are simply 275/70/18 Wildpeak AT3W on factory TRD OR wheels with 1" BORA spacers.

    Someone on one of the Tundra FB Groups also posted about finding the same thing last week.
    Someone said they think its a cap that goes on the rear of the headlight and possibly the tail ight.

    Can’t say I’ve seen anything like it. Once it’s daylight out I’ll crawl under my rear bumper and see if I can find a matching part. If it’s not fastened to the truck, I wouldn’t think it’s terribly critical for operation, maybe something from manufacturing

    It's just a Rough Country lift with the N3 shocks. Later on I'd like to run something a bit nicer

    Yep its definitely that piece. I had a taillight in the garage so I went and took a peak after George posted that.

    Looks like it blocks a vent hole in the taillight to keep moisture out?

    If there are Tundras overseas (or if they were planning on sending them) Light assemblies normally have a requirement for rear fog lamps.

    I was about the same age when I did this to my Dad's RV. Luckily my Dad was able to stop it before it went into the neighbors yard.

    :notsure:

    That I can't speak too. Mine was still on pretty good so I really don't see this working off on its own but who knows.

    I would think you would want to cover the hole so moisture doesn't get into the housing, but if you really need this piece with the little bit of foam? That I got no clue on.

    Topped off my coolant reservoir yesterday between min/max.

    OE 50/50 coolant costed me $29.

    Wondering if Zerex would be just as good?

    Been hearing a lot of the HG issues and I think I’m going to do a coolant flush being that I’m at 70k now.

    Hey, what's the upgrade blower motor do for you? I'm noticing a ticking noise in mine (original)...if I can't find a leaf or twig in it and get a new one, might as well take it as an opportunity.

    Thanks!

    You guys are going to need to make a sticky or put it in the MODs / Tutorial section. I think a bunch of us will eventually end up going this route :thumbsup:
