WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

600 mile oil change on new engine.
New fomoto valve with the long nipple.
Not pictured but started mocking up the external trans cooler.

 

Tyger soft roll up bed cover. pretty good quality and fits really good for 200 bucks.

 

I've been needing to get something. Where'd you purchase?

 

Amazon.

Nice!! How was the install on those?

 

Rough country, ebay, Amazon, all of them sell them, they are made at the same plant in china. All of them are good and i could not find any difference among ones i checked even tho they bear different names. Maybe some made on another factory just around the corner

 

Looks good. Mine arrive today!

 

What’s wild to me, is that the TRD off-road package doesn’t come with skid plates.

waiting on the front one from EBay soon.

I don’t do enough off-roading to necessitate a 1/4 thick plate, but something that’s sturdy enough to take a hit and deflect the blow, as well as deter catalyst thieves is a win in my book.
And it was $129.00.
Say what you will about rough country, but they solve problems at a reasonable price.

 

Let me understand, rough contry or ebay?

 

Ordered both from Ebay, the actual skid plate that mimics the TRD one is on the way, should be here later in the week.

The rough country cat shield/trans plate was from their ebay store as well, free shipping.

Total was about $360 for both i think.

 

I have the same cat shield, been on for about a year and no issues.

 

Not bad just followed the instructions. Note the driver side wire is tan not purple.

 

Added sound deadening material to all four doors thanks to this forum for ideas on application and assembly. Was pretty fun to do honestly and recommended highly if you like to tinker. It’s not hard at all to remove/install door panels. I may do the back wall or floor down the road but honestly already happy with the results.

The doors close with more thud, it’s noticeably more quiet inside, sound from stereo seems sooo much better, driving it feels awesome and tight, and less pesky rattles! Sorry my explanations suck but just trust me and do it.

Recommendations:
- Bought a box 76sq ft. - would have divided the total by 4 so I knew how much could be applied per door. Ended up with about 8 sheets leftover but if I knew would have spread those out and just doubles up or applied to inside door skin.
- front door puddle lights are easier to plug back in if you knock them out of door panel and pull wire through. Light just pops back on.
- the front doors/mirror area covers are a pain to pop off. There are two white clips that you’ll have to get out of the mirror mount area to reinstall the cover (put on cover first) I ended up breaking one of them so be aware. Ordered box of 30 from Amazon.
- take your time. All in all probably took hour per door.

 

Pull out your front seats and use the leftover on the floor. A bit more involved but worth it. I also added Dynapad to mine and it’s so much quieter.

 

Can’t even let the cuts on my hands heal and already getting more ideas lol. Thanks Dudeman.

 

If you do the floor, I wouldn’t recommend the Dynapad. Functionally it works well but it was hard to get everything back together. I had to modify the kick panels slightly to get them to fit. I believe the Dynapad is about 5/8” thick. If I did it again I would use sound skins or the Resonix product.

 

Finally picked up my GFC. Pretty happy with it so far.

 

Do you want to sell the OEM shifter knob? I removed mine incorrectly when installing larger cup holders and the retaining pin popped out.........

 

Do you still have your Leitner? I'm curious if there's been any issue

 

Today I dropped it off at the shop, on the list: TRD axles, ICON upper control arms, ICON coil overs (front), ICON shocks (rear), Dobinson springs (rear), and new wheels and tires. I've been waiting to do this since May of last year when I was originally going to do the TRD 3" lift.

 

what bike rack is that?

 

Installed the Heritage grill.

 

Installed factory color matched side view mirror covers

 

Added a 2 channel dashcam. For now powdered from the front usb port. Going either 12v tap or dome light or even fuse tap for parking mode.
Dash cam is VIOFO 229 plus. Ran the power wire to the right , under the dash, footwell and usb port. The rear camera to the left , A pillar , plastic trim by the doors, up the C pillar and by the rear window weather strip.
Rear support made my a very good neighbor of mine - from here - https://makerworld.com/en/models/830855-toyota-tundra-rear-camera-mount#profileId-775203

 

Truck looks good!

 

Loved the GFC on my Tacoma, can't wait to get one for the Tundra. Congrats & Enjoy!

 

It’s the second generation Recon Rack, before 1up bought them out

 

Thanks! Pretty stoked on it, my 9 year old son likes it even more, tree fort on wheels, haha
