What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Thank you. I may have the same thing going on. The only time I hear it is when I'm coming out of a parking lot or something at a slow speed. It make one ding and then nothing else.

 

Yeah that’s how mine started, got progressively worse over time.

 

Thank you sir I'm gonna have them take a look.

 

Didn't do it today, but received my highly anticipated Tesla Style Headunit 7.1 Fastboot and installed it. Love it. I waited for a long time for them to get the "kinks" worked out. I must say the unit is perfect. Everything now works and exceeds my expectations!

 

Does this work on the non dual climate control models? (SR5, Pro)

 

Very sharp looking, hope I didn't make a mistake on getting it with the dials/knobs.

 

I'm considering getting a tesla, so I looked at their screen and it has no buttons. Seeing that clean look plus it coming sooner is what made me get the knobless version haha

 

Are there brackets for this position? Any pics or info on how it’s mounted?

 

I think I've seen someone that has the SR5 with one. They reported no issues. I don't know what the difference in interface choices would be though.

 

Obviously you feel more sway in corners. Otherwise the ride is appreciably smoother w/o them as the wheels are more independent. If you hit a bump on the left side it's not automatically transmitted to the right side via the sway.

 

dig into this thread https://www.tundras.com/threads/android-headunit.16037/page-53#post-777887and you will find out it is very easy to switch from non or dual climate controls.

 

Fine so far after my drive to work this morning.

Tad bit of body roll but nothing serious.

 

If u have it by dropping the skid you will see the wear marks on it. Mine already had the skid shim kit installed by the dealer and it worked perfect without any sounds. Then 1 day I decided to paint my calipers and in doing so I jacked up the truck in the front to get both sides up at once by doing it under the crossmember. Obviously I didn't feel the need to take the skid plate off since it looked like it butted up to the crossmember. But by doing it this way I must have either pushed or bent the skid plate up further to make contact on the crossmember.

It sounded horrible for 2 months before I brought it in to get fixed under warranty. It would do just like u said, start and stop under slow speeds get a squeak and a grind like metal on metal. I live on a hill going up into my driveway so soon as the truck flexed on uneven ground it was pretty loud and annoying. Made my truck sound like a piece of shit. So the tech dropped the skid and was able to see I already had the shims in it. He could also see where the crossmember was rubbing on the plate just where I told him I was pretty sure it was coming from. Luckily, I knew him and he went the extra mile to add a little more space with washers to keep it off that. He also said he had an idea if it comes back to put a piece of leather between.

Don't worry it's common issue and Toyota should fix it for free since there is tsb's out for it. It's an easy fix, they can put like a small shim in there to give a tiny space with some rubber bushings, you'll be good to go.

 

Did the drivers side grab bar upgrade today so my daughters, wife as well as shortie man friends can get in the drivers seat if needed. This ain't a Ridgeline, cmon Toyota.

 

Thank you sir I'm definetly going to have them look at it.

 

Made my spare 35s fit under my @bayareametalfab low pro and made mounts for my knock off recovery trax

 

What's with the diff colors?

 

Its a timezone world map. Give u time change calc. From right to left. I figure it will come in handy once i take my Tundra on a world wide expedition.

 

Finally got around to breaking out the vibersaw to reinstall some of my under seat storage after adding a sub kit.

 

Also got this out of the way. Will never be used as long as I have the truck but can be put back easy. Good old rear seat mod makes easy/

 

How did you release that buckle? It's not looking obvious to me on mine.

 

"headliner" like the interior ceiling of your cab? please definitely get some pix up when installed.

 

Google search brought me right back to this forum with the answer: https://www.tundras.com/threads/how...er-shoulder-seat-belt-on-2018-dual-cab.17694/

 

Hoping will get to it by the end of the month.
Yup, its interior cieling

 

That's unique and u like it. Make sure to post lots of pix of the process and the completion

 

pop the cover. Obvious then. Small blade screw driver to pop open.

 

Changed out the gray plasti-dip to red on the center console and painted the tow hooks red with cherry gloss enamal paint.

 

wash and detail. took about 4 hours

 

Finally got rid of the last bit of chrome. Now it looks right.

I wanted to have a Fuel Can for piece of mind and generators. I hadn’t seen a good way to mount one on a tundra, then again I didn’t look to hard.

My answer to this problem:
5 gallon Jerry can
Smittybuilt here can holder
4’ of 1” x 3/16” strap steel
(4) 5/16”x1” bolt w/ lock washers/nuts
(2) 1/2”x1-1-2” carriage bolt w/ lock washers/nuts
Paint

Cut the steel in 20” lengths. At 1” from end drill 1/2” hole. At 13” and 18” bore 5/16” holes.



Paint it up and bolt it up and use the carriage bolts in the rails.

Also it fits nicely under my revolver bed cap.
