What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Whereabouts do you farm in Canada @Medic?

 

Eastern Ontario. Near a small town named Bancroft. Took over grandparents farm.

 

Nice. Is it dryland or irrigated up there?

 

Aaaaaand my TRD sway bar cabe in too so I got a 2 fir 1 deal delivery to my house. It's a great Saturday.

 

Neither, we have a lot or water around in small streams/ swamps. Very uneven ground, nothing extreme but lots of stones and loamy soil. We have 400 acres with about 220 in cleared land with the rest in mixed hardwood/ coniferous trees. Dont have to pay for firewood

 

Thats always a good thing ha.

 

If you don't mind me asking, what did the MagnaFlow cost you?

 

My parents and grandparents own a hundred acres here in VA, its nice having free fire wood!

 

Gotta love it when people admire your handy work!

 

I came out of the gun show today with two guys standing and staring at my truck.

 

Actually got it on ebay for $387

 

Mounted a Yakima bar system and Rocky Mount trays to my bed sides.

 

replaced horns and put a new all chrome grill on...

 

So about a week ago it was all rainy and slushy out and I happened to notice a little bit of rust runoff under the license plate light of my fab fours bumper, so I looked underneath and this is what I found, shortly after that the corrosion caused the light to short out a blow the fuse to the running lights in the truck

So the next day I called fab fours and talked to the girl in customer service, she was very helpful and told me to send her some pics of the problem and we would find a solution. So that night I sent her that pic. The next day I recieved an e-mail with my options, option 1 they send me a check for $250 and take care of it myself with sand paper and rust-oleum flat black, option 2 get an estimate from a local body shop and e-mail it to them and they would take care of it, option 3 remove the bumper and they would authorize a replacement through the company I purchased it from. And they would send me replacement lights with options 1 or 2, Well option 3 was out because I didn't want to take the bumper off, so I was going to go with option 2 but my brother who has been a paint and body man for 20+ years said it probably wouldn't be $250 to redo the bumper so I went with option 1, I took my time with some medium grit sand paper and used the rust-oleum they recommend and I couldn't be happier with the result
I think the rust started with wither the light or the hardware mounting the light so I greased them up really well this time

I also did the outside of the bumper where the light mounts because when I removed the light there was some very fine surface rust that had come through under the light

I shouldn't have used the masking tape because it left a tape line once I sanded the tape line down and put another light coat on it blended perfectly

 

I love companies with great customer support. Props to FabFour for making it right. Nice work cleaning her up, it looks great now.

 

+1 for fluid film

 

Fluid film? Help me out I'm not familiar

 

Gotcha

 

looking good

 

Installed throttle body spacer and boy does she help that trd CAI suck more air in. Throttle response is instant.

 

Looks good, almost like inferno..

 

Had this mysterious box in my office when I got back to work....








Looks like I'm in for a fun weekend (if I can even wait that long to start). Gonna take my tailpipe off and black it out and put the resonator + a black tip on it before I install the new muffler system.

Thanks @dirtydeeds!!!

 

Make a video after you get it installed

 

My buddy's wife works with me and my wife at our shop and she drove his Tundra to work today

Then I got a stone chip on my home

Then I replaced my licence plate lights with led's

These things are bright

 

Holy crap doing this when I get home ...I'm loving this forum !

 

7" SS BA Muffler with built in Helmholtz resonator !!!! Thanks again Keith , sounds Bad A....

 

Good choice! Got my 7" mounted up last night. Sounds like an absolute beast right now with the tailpipe and resonator off. Gonna toss those on tmrw morning when tailpipe paint is dry.

 

Bath and debadged.
