What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Window tint

Ajt chrome delete interior and TRD shift knob.

 

Is the shift knob on backwards?

 

@TundraTool13 What did you get for tint % on front & back?

 

5% all the way around

 

Technically it wasn’t to my 3rd gen, but added the follow to my pops truck:

-Gator hard folding tonneau
-LED bed lights (wired to the cargo lamp circuit)
-DIY tailgate lock
-DIY wireless charger
-Starter X remote starter
-AVS inchannel vent visors
-Car seat for my son


Took absolutely zero photos, because one I forgot and two it was absolutely humid and miserable out.

 

yeah it needs one more turn, my bad.

 

Use your knob how you want
I was torn between that one and the one I picked up. I believe it was the Tacoma TRD Pro model. I went with that one. I liked the red plastic inlay between the black plastic and the leather.


Also, Last month I got stuck in some mud as I was driving along an Oil pipeline. I could have easily got out of the hole I was in with a Hi-Lift. Instead I had to dig my truck out with a Vietnam era E-tool shovel. I fixed that today for the nice simple price of Free.50! I can't wait to hurt myself useing this dangerous tool

 

All i did was put about 300 miles on her. Went for a ride through the mountains here in Western NC.

 

Is that the Blue Ridge Pkwy?

 

Cherohala Skyway drive. I've lived here all my life and never heard of till a couple of weeks ago.

 

Ah, cool. Down by Cherokee. Love NC. I’ll be vacaing down in the north-western part of NC next month.

 

Cool. We have a lot to do here. If you have the time to go find it. The best part about riding over there is we had no cell service.

 

sanded. Painted. Gloss seal. Took my time this time redoing it

 

I'll be doing mine this coming week.

Was planning on sanding, priming, painting (but not gloss sealing).

 

Right on! Split close to eight years between SC and NC. Now been in VA for about 16 years. Probably end up around VA/NC area when I retire.

 

Only did the gloss because I had it already haha it looks good but won't hold up if I use them

 

No primer?

 

@Bakershack how do you like your underflex cover?

 

Installed rigid fog lights on her..

 

That's a great deal! Where'd you get it done?

 

GREAT work! Looks so good.

 

Installed my trd exhaust but it sticks out about an inch further on the passenger side I messed around with it for a little bit but it stayed the same. Ran out of time with it for the evening, any pointers?

 

My front right wheel had dug itself deep down in the mud, bottoming out my truck. My back left wheel was off of the ground and I had these two weird little bumps in front of my wheels and behind my truck. All I had to do was lift the front right of my truck enough to put a traction board under it. Instead I had to dig out under my truck for a little over an hour to get enough mud out to wheel out of the hole. It was one of the few times a Hi-lift would have helped me where my other gear wouldn't.

 

Primer was in the spray can. Two in 1 coat style can

 

Just went with my son, He bought it. 2014 , 5.7 , 1794 EDITION, CREW CAB, 101,000 miles, Excellent cond. for 23k, pretty good deal. Now there's 2- WHITE TUNDRAS in the driveway. Or I should say mines in the garage , his is out. Let the mods begin. He's really happy 1rst Tundra.

 

@Murph2308. I went on Facebook market place & Offer up to find a local locksmith & haggled the price for them to do it

 

You better watch your parts.

 

Oh ya , forgot. ha ha Father and son fun again.

 

I can’t say anything,I’m guilty of borrowing a few parts off the old man’s Tundra

 

So far I like it. It is built much sturdier than the Peragon I replaced. It gets HOT though so I have a rag handy for any time I want to open or close it.

It was pretty easy to install and it looks great. The only thing I really don't like is that I have to completely uninstall the cover AND the rails if I need to use the deck rail tie downs. Since it is so easy to remove and replace, I'll just live with that.

The drain tubes were just a little too big to fit in the drain holes without drilling them out some. I'm going to buy my own. I didn't want to disturb the bedliner by boring out the hole.
