What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Cool pics. Looks like the Setrab cooler?

 

Started putting a WildTop together today
God i used to love erector sets

 

I bought a set off Amazon. Seemed like a universal set because I had to make them work for my grill. But glad I did for the brightness and the shape. I don’t like the “dot” ones either.

 

Yup. The 15 row. Essentially it's the genuine cooling system kit but I pieced it together myself and saved a little over $600.

 

Did you get rid of the white Tundy?

 

Did an oil change, 55,000 miles. Swapped for the LC blower motor, new cabin filter, tried to get my 12v solutions app controller working with no luck, and started on a switch project. I got the bezel from https://www.blackcatworks.com/Custo...e-25-Gen-Toyota-Tundra-2014-2021-MY_p_26.html.
As much as I wanted to get the Rainman_PNW panel by the shifter, I was nervous about cutting into the leather.

 

Bought it. Technically I did it yesterday but it was dark and late when I got it home.

 

Was sitting at a light when another SR5 pulled up and I noticed this....

 

I had one on my 3rd gen 6.5' bed and it always leaked. The side canvas flexed inward at highway speeds and the rear pillars then acted like a bedsheet/sail, it made my mileage terrible. from 18.6mpg at 80mph to 14.8mpg. Definitely didn't keep things dry driving in rain either. I hope it works out for your though! Might work better on shorter beds since the sides wouldn't be able to flex inward as much.

 

When I was working on the center console swap I added some footwell lights.
I'm cheap sometimes and this was one of those times.... I used license plate lights and a couple of fuse taps.
Turned out pretty good if ya ask me.

 

Not uncommon.

There are drive thru pharmacies everywhere.

I’d be more concerned about who stole your headrest.

 

Lol...I was referring to his Pro decal. I took the headrests out....easier to see lol.

 

What am I missing here?

 

Looks great to me!

 

Replaced Fuel Pump controller, no dice, still crank no start. Starts one in 8-10 times. Scheduled fuel pump replacement, it is under recall for my year. It developed so quickly...

 

Sad part is the guy probably thought he bought a trd pro and not a limited with a sticker. For those who dont know, Real pro models have the nameplate pressed into the sheet metal and no sticker.

That was smart of Toyota to change itnup. Apparently this sticker swap practice is most common on toyotas and people misrepresent their trim levels more than any other car brand (per the interwebs). Go to autotrader and look up trd pro tundras. You'll find tons of advertised Pros with stickers and no pressed nameplates.

 

Poser

 

I have seen that. The problem that I noticed is that the seller will have it way over priced because they don't know that it's not an actual Pro.

 

Damn it...


We call that a bedstamp


...and stop sharing our secrets!!!!

 

If you find the link, would you mind sharing it?

The pictures are fake. I'm running YotaLEDs and this company originally used my truck picture that I posted on this forum as their advertisement. I wrote them on Amazon calling them out for false advertising. They wrote back asking me for pictures of my truck and no response after that. Looking at the listing now, they removed my truck picture but they photoshopped the 4th picture using JUST my grille which is still YotaLEDS.

This is my truck before my grille swap..

 

Time to blackout the steering wheel trim next

 

Not sure if I'm going to do the steering wheel or the HVAC surrounds...

i had the steering wheel apart to do the MESO steering wheel audio controls fix and wasn't compelled to do it then. The shiny chrome bothered me way more than the silver trim parts... But, for some reason on that entire console area looks much better w/the chrome and silver gone!!!

Here's the other part of this that drives my OCD nuts... So, I did the black overlays for the door handles, but there's no fix for that large strip of silver that sits along the armrest on all 4 doors. Right now, my brain is telling me a little silver on the steering wheel, a little surrounding the HVAC controls and a little on the door panels (all relatively sitting at about the same height) should look intentional and aesthetically pleasing....

 

Looks good

I agree, Tow Haul should not be yellow/orange. Scares me to thinking I got a CEL if I forget I'm in Tow Haul mode.

I ended up painting the whole center radio surround with a textured black paint and it looks great. I also painted the horizontal pieces that are part of the dash to match. The door panels are the only thing left but I've seen that those are kind of a PIA to remove so they'll probably stay silver.

 

Looks awesome. I have an SSO bumper on right now but considering getting an upgrade soon. You just added Chassis Unlimited to my short list.

Do you have wheel spacers on?

 

Looks good!!!

 

Guilty, but I didn't misrepresent anything, just decaled a truck that didn't have em

 

Drove it. Didn't have to be anywhere at any time, just went for a nice relaxing cruise. We have one of the best freeway networks in the world, I just circle the city. 101 to the 51 to the 10 to the 101. Beautiful
