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

Looks great.

 

so much better than my oem gen 2 toyotas.

 

This was more of what happened the past couple of days. Got new tires and tinted the windows a little darker. Darker in the back, and got a visor strip. Going to wash it later today as well!

 

Took the truck out for the 1st time in 2 weeks. Will probably throw on the trickle charger/battery minder at this rate of driving.

 

Got my eBay 14+ raptor front bumper on and super bumper for the rear. Added a trd sticker I had laying around for that from the factory look

 

@pyrite808 How is the fit and finish and do you have a link to the bumper?

 

I finished the driver side railing. Then, managed to get to the fab shop before the last guy left to buy the rack floor metal. Then, I got about half way through building the passenger side upright and railing. Been a good day so far! I’m starting to like the way it’s looking.

I’m very happy with the fit. I had to modify one side of the frame mount holes but that was it. The side bumper wings leave a little bit of overhang from the top plastic trim piece but not a deal breaker for me. I added 4 harbor freight led pods, 2x flood 2x spot, and a smittybuilt winch which I still need to wire up and add the synthetic winch line.

 

Do think with new bumper it would help out with bigger tires? Can you take a side shot when you get a chance.

 

Yeah I figured it would. Good option for the price to customize your front bumper. I saw the rear bumper they make also. Wonder if there is much problem fitting on 2nd gen.

 

It comes back maybe an inch or so into the wheel well. Maybe a spacer is in order but not sure if there's enough thread on the the frame bolts for that. Not a big deal to me, it does catch dirt, if it becomes a problem in the future I may just chop it.


Here's @LBGlossWorks with 37's, I think my bumper will clear those no problem. At least that's what I'm hoping.

 

Yeah I can see what your saying. I don't like the bumper is pretruding back. But since it is starting upward in more increase incline that has less material it shouldn'tbe an issue.

 

What do you have for tires now?

 

255/70/18

 

Dang that's smaller than I thought you had!

 

Got the main structure tacked late last night. It’s looking seriously rad!

 

Looking good.

 

i still need to pull apart my bad lands winch and find out what is wrong with it and get a synthetic rope for it cause the cable is some where in a land fill now where it should be...

 

Are these the NEW Toyo AT3's?

 

Thanks!

 

You Tig welding that?

 

Mig sir. One day I’ll learn tig!

 

Your good, once you get that mig set up dialed in, it puts out a nice bead. Looking good

 

Thanks

 

Installed tail light guards

 

Far from done, but can see what’s its all about now!

 

Installed my rock warrior grill. Plasti dip the front emblem.

 

Went from drab grey/chrome to black/red!
