What have you done to your 2nd gen Tundra today?

I bolted some steel onto my truck today...

 

I also upgraded my HF radio and Antenna recently to an Icom IC-7100, with a Tarheel Little Tarheel-II antenna.





I also replaced the factory antenna base, because on a trip sometime mid-2018, I broke the antenna off inside the base, and couldn't extract the remaining bits. That was a pain.

 

What kind of bumper?

 

That's a High clearance rear bumper from Trail Toys near Houston, TX.

 

yep. this looks nice on gen 2.

 

Last piece of chrome finally gone!!!

 

I replaced the battery tie down. And had to buy...

Didn't have a deep well 10mm..... :/

 

Recently purchased a used tonneau cover from the local classifieds super cheap. Had to re attach two of the clips that lock things into place but overall thrilled with the results. Bed is completely dry after some rain/snow and I can finally put my soccer gear in the bed for transport.

 

I can't wait to see what those look like installed.

 

Changed the oil and added a Fumoto drain valve.

 

Those are going to look good!

 

It will be weeks or even month(s) I’m doing the install myself . Just looking at them, I think I already given up haha

 

Time to hide the back wheels

 

Went to the store for mumma, then took a picture of it on the way back inside cause it looked good when I turned back

Minus the fender rust

 

Did it have fender flares on it ? Just took mine off because I was afraid that will happen.

 

This will be a fun job won't it ?

 

Yeah it did. I broke one off while off-roading in the trees. I doubt I’ll put a set back on once I bedline the truck.

 

Time for fiberglass bedsides?

 

I like your truck with out them also I'm thinking I may keep mine off now.

 

Sure will haha

 

Well you know I'm patiently waiting .

 

Let’s see your sans flares

 

With and without
Is that what you wanted to see ?

 

X2

 

Yeah. Looks good. Only thing that drives me crazy is how dirty it gets without flares

 

That looks like a booth, how'd that run ya?

 

Almost as bad as trying to keep the spring white lol. O well they are trucks .Lets get them dirty. Haha

 

So i took my 2gen shopping at its favorite place, Discount Tires.

The Nitto terra grapplers where nice and looked pretty good (up until about the last 7000 miles), but the Falken Wildpeaks and Atturo Trail blade XTs here looking really good too. Especially since i dont find myself off road often anymore.

The Atturo's sidewalls where pretty cool. They where designed by a popular knife maker says the description.

Neither where in stock and both where also on back order.. Bah!!

Apparently none of the 295/70r18 sizes were in stock. Atleast none that were sub 300ish a piece.

Kinda funny cause im not sure if i just got dupped into ordering their house brand pathfinders, lol.

They cut me a small discount so im ok with it. Now i have to just wait till Tues or Wednesday. Its gonna be a long 3/4 days.
