What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Put a K&N cabin air filter in Saturday, smells better inside now. I was surprised at what the stock one looked like after 19k miles.

 

Yes indeed!

 

What rack did that start as @Vizsla? I like the looks of it and am in the need for something that doesn't make me look like a painter.

 

No they do not. Just no wipers while hood is open.

 

I love these so far. Great purchase.

 

You said you wanted a ride? I'm happy to push you out in Pasadena, I'll even slow to 25mph.

 

I am going to need my truck for this trip next week.

There is a used set on eBay, for $279.

 

FINALLY put the shackles on the back

 

Washed all the dust and pollen off her

 

What shackles did you go with ? I did mine last Saturday

 

Toytecs; I just couldn't justify the price for Coachbuilders even though I know know they are a very good product as well.

 

I fixed it?

Before..







After..

 

any spare parts to sell ?
I need a spare Method w 295/70/18

 

looks great !

 

No spare methods, Sorry. I've got an OEM spare, 4 TRDs and 4 20" chrome fuel wheels. C'mon you know you wanna sport those chrome 20s...LOL

 

i put the Toytec's on too and it was a job lol. Did exactly what the video showed but the leaf spring wouldn't lower enough so tried all kinds of things then finally had to put a cheap jack between the spring and bed frame and that worked! How did you do yours? Curious to know

 

Did u remove both wheels and removed both shackles before installing? Or did you do one side at a time? When I did my buddies we did one side at a side at a time and it wouldn’t droop low enough. We had to pry it down to get the shackles on.

When I installed mine I removed both sides first and that let it droop and install way easier.

 

At first I hadn't removed my wheels so it wasn't even close. Once I did that I was able to pull them down far enough to get most of it through, then I just used a dead hammer to tap it lightly on the other side. It took a lot of struggle though to get that first part through. I'm a large man and I was basically hanging off the leaf while I was trying to get the bolt through. I wanted to make sure the pumpkin was supported the whole time but even if I dropped it so far that the jack wasn't touching (I was very careful with lines, etc.), it was still not enough. So I just jacked it up a bit and pulled on it.

 

I did both sides at the same time but still had a hard time getting the leaf low enough for the shackle.

I'm wondering - was there a difference in mileage between you and your buddy's trucks? I know the leafs flatten over time or constant heavy loads, just wondering if that might have an effect.

 

What happened?

 

Shout out to my Tundra Brother in San Antonio @geno0506 Thanks again my Brother!!!
