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

Dont Hate!

 

I unplugged all the connections and replugged and so far so good

 

I dig it. No hatin' here!

 

OBD II bluetooth scanner (very cool for $23), superstrut DIY bed rails, two 50cal ammo cans, and D-rings (@csuviper thanks yet again...can you tell I want to be just like you...before you traded in the 2nd gen...ahah) to begin the storage system for two 5 gal gas cans, 7 gal water, and a full sized floor jack....with camp lights. Just make the rain stop so these broken bones stop aching and I can get to work!

I have the same reader. works great

 

wonder if a steamer would work better at getting the glue and such. they work way better than hair dryers on window tint

 

I only experienced it when I put VLEDS in the taillights, back-up lights, and rear turn signals. Had to change the rear turn signals back to regular bulbs for the time being. I just got a new OEM flasher that I'm modifying to allow me to use the VLEDS as the rear turn signals. I have the resistors from VLEDS for the rear turn signals, but would rather try the flasher mod first.

 

Are you leveled or is it the camera angle?

 

I burned some premium fuel... I bought some premium fuel. It was a good day.

 

What is this flasher mod you speak of ?

 

Yeah, what Tim said

I gave polishing a non beater a try over the last few days. My Tundra is a 2011 work truck that may have never seen the inside of a garage before I got it last summer. Clayed it twice, polished it with megs 205 twice and this is how it looks currently. Since it is not my driver I am in no rush to finish so when I get fed up or sick of it I just walk away.

Some of this is iphone camera magic but it does look much better and the paint is super smooth compared to before.

 

Lookin' real nice now!!

 

I deleted my front catiletic converters last night. Now I’m total free flowing. Sounds more aggressive but still not overly loud until wot. Glad it worked out that way. Seems more snappy to me? I’ll see how the o2 bung extensions work over the next couple weeks and update for y’all. Also will be watching my mileage as well. Cheers

Edit. Oh I forgot I also installed coachbuilder shim on the drivers side to straighten out the dreaded tundra lean too

 

Any front pictures?

 

Added Sequoia headlights. Paint matched Rock Warrior grille will be here Thursday along with XB led fogs.

 

Ehat size shim did you go with? Mine feels like it's so bad

 

Not very good ones, the pressure washer washed off winter and the shitty plasti dip job I did in the winter. I am going to redo it.

That last one is what all the detailer dudes do.

 

I like that bumper also, what brand is that?

 

ebay $600 DV8

 

My passenger side was 25 1/4” from hub Center to fender and driver was 24 3/4. I used one 1/4” shim which translates to 1/2” of lift. It’s exactly the same on both sides now at 25 1/4”

My man! Just what I was looking for.

 

left the emblem chrome this time, I like it for now, plus its a 5 min change to pop it off and spray it.

 

how do you like the White knuckles sliders ?

 

very clean ! the sequoias LED make it look like a newer model

 

I had a feeling. If you don't want to spend too much you can do the midnight black and it'll still look really good, it's what I have on my truck right now.

 

Front emblem dipped. I like it pretty good and it was free lol
