What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Painted calipers black with red high temp (is this an actual thing?) decals. Figured I was too old for red, I really like lime green because of my job, but got some feedback it would look Christmas-y. So black widow look it was..

 

R&G Toyota TRD HIGH TEMP Brake Caliper Sticker Set of 4 Decals (Red)

 

Ok so pink is Pos, black-white is neg for drivers side. Passenger side green Pos and blue Neg??

 

It’s just a joystick

 

Installed new LED puddle lights



Thanks @BlueBottle for the idea

 

Removed ProComp 3/1 Leveling Kit and 1” differential spacer.

Added Bilstein 5100 all around. Front Bilstein are at the lowest setting.

 

I pretty much did all this last week:

Oem all weather mats
Oem rubber bed mat
TRD front and rear sway bars
5% ceramic tint

 

do you have a picture of it with the leveling kit ?

 

This if the only photo I have. When I had the lift it had Raceline wheels: 18x9 +18 offset. Tires were lt275/70r18 bfg ko2

 

If anyone cares to chime in: a local seller is selling a set of Rock Warrior wheels with good Michelin lt285/70 r17 tires. He’s asking $400. I’m sure I can get it down on pricing. Decent deal?

 

Very cheap

 

Did you notice a big difference in ride quality? Truck looks great both styles but I’m sure on the 5100s must feel better than the spacers

 

Okay. Good to know. I want 17 inch wheels without the crazy negative offset. The only other 17 inch wheels I like are the evo corse dakarzero but cost of each wheel is $350.

When I bought it new, it came with the lift and tires. As I began to drive it more, I wasn’t happy with the ride quality. You can definitely feel the difference. It was really hard to remove the spacers. So much pressure on the shock and wasn’t allowing it to do its job in absorbing the road imperfections. I have read though that when you start cranking these 5100 shocks towards the middle and top setting the ride tends to get harsh. Also switching from lt rated tires to p rated tires made a difference in ride quality. I have no regrets and truly enjoy driving my truck now.

 

How about some photos....

 

That's a steal! I would've been all over that back when I was looking for 17s.

 

Where are you located, city state Zip code, any of those would work if you’re willing to share that. Possibly a photo too?

 

Added Nerf / Slider bars
Before



And after

 

Which ones are those?

 

Somewhere on the west side of our country... lol. I’m headed over there now to buy them

 

Tyger Auto. You can find them on Amazon. I have the same ones and love them.

 

Painted front tow hooks

Said to see rust between my hooks and frame on a 6 month old truck- probably because there was no factory paint in between two- that’s bullshit- so I put black rustoleum on frame ends while hooks were off.

 

Anybody have any advice on these:

 

Awesome! Can’t wait to do this mod on mine!

 

Should post a full frontal of the tundra

 

They are in Glendale, AZ. (Phoenix, AZ). I’m not going to get them. They are cool but I like my current wheels.

 

My SR came with no bed rail system. I used my 50% off coupon on parts from the dealer(up to $100) that was another bonus of buying through Costco, and got the whole kit for $106 (it was $206). I haul stuff all the time, so the rail system is something I have looked forward to having. Today I installed it, but I got called to work with only 3 bolts left to install to finish the job. oh well...

 

Got switches all hooked up!! Bed light, reverse light and light bar. So happy how it turned out!

 

Nice job.

What year is that C/10?

 

Finally got out on the dirt for the first time
