What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

New o2's and Wideband sensors arrived. Think the block and heads go to the machine shop next week. Confirm the plan and some items. Then put the order in for the custom pistons (depending on lead time) and rods etc.

 

My old ‘91 4runner used to fling rocks forward from the back tires when getting back on the highway after going wheeling, had to replace the passenger side mirror glass twice!

 

Im pretty sure that's what happened here...

 

Even with stock wheels, stuff gets tossed around. This rock literally landed on my hood after being flung off my tire while driving through the neighborhood as I made a low speed turn. I was the only car around.

 

Hit a mileage milestone, hauled some wood and DG and built my wife and I, a new hammock stand.

 

Thats a nice looking build, and a comfy looking hammock

 

The rear window that goes fully down is so awesome. Good job on the project. Looks great!
Bet that wood cost a fortune though.

 

yeah 6x6 redwood is pricey, 16ft ran about $225 and the 8ft were 95 each. Worth it in the end, looks so much nicer than pressure treated

 

Just finished putting new front brake pads on. First time ever on the 2.5 generation Tundra. What a learning curve. I've done brakes on other vehicles before but the Tundra is a little different. The Pistons move too much. Too had to use two c-clamps since I don't have one of those brake tools.

Yeah I was going to get one but I decided to do the brakes at the last minute because it was making screeching noises and it's down to almost metal to metal. I'll get it for next time, I have to do the rears anyways.
