    got the cap with ez drain valve, socket, dust cap, and nipple for hose. Looks like the housing itself is sold out right now. Just keep checking back or send him and email because they sell out pretty quick and from what I understand it’s a one man show making this. I had the aluminum housing prior to this but I still managed to make a mess trying to stick that pos plastic thing in the end of the housing and drain it out. Now I’ll just open up 2 valves and should make oil changes much quicker and cleaner.

    Just got my rig back from the body shop. When I bought it a month ago, there was a deep scratch (to the metal) that someone tried to fix on their own in the driver door and a long scratch from the rear door down the entire bed. They buffed that out, fixed the driver door and blended it in. Looks brand new!

    I installed the TRD Pro headlights using an @iHacker harness! Great harness by the way!

    Did an oil change with Amsoil and factory filter. Switched over to the metal filter housing and Fumoto valve.

    Ugh, I need to get the bigger tank for towing but not looking forward to the pump! My little 26 gallon just swings back and forth daily.

    Working on it.
    Got the MHX cooler installed last night. It was a breeze!

    Only thing I am going to add is putting some abrasion wrap on the hoses. Otherwise, the kit was complete and well built. Unloaded drive home on the highway with the thermostat unpinned showed a 10-15 degree decrease compared to the drive in.

    I got the aftermarket 46 gallon tank installed last year in my '15 and love it! It's going to make a huge difference in towing the trailer this Summer.

    This thread is for "what did you do to your Tundra today?"

    Talking about Covid-19 or its origin, Fuel prices, Tornadoes, Health issues, or anything other that what you did to a Tundra isn't a good idea. We have general BS, health, fuel prices, and pretty much everything else under the sun on there other than politics.

    Thread re-opened per @Ericbike6.

    Ok so I replaced my stock HU the other day, while doing so the battery negative was disconnected. Hooked everything back up and the truck wouldn't start. The battery was mostly dead, so I charge it up. to ~50% or a little less. It tried to start for 2 or 3 seconds then started. Phew.

    Ever since then, the truck continues to take a few seconds for the engine to turn over. It didn't do this prior to the new HU install.

    Coincidentally, I take the truck in this morning for an Oil change/tire rotation, and mention the delayed start issue. They are telling me it's likely the Immobilizer causing it.. either it's going bad, or the key itself is having communication issues with it since there's a chip in it that sends a signal at engine start for security... This particular key is pretty new - I got it new last Summer and had a different Toyota dealership program it.

    My other thought is maybe it's something with the fuel pump? I did get the TransferFlow tank installed last year, but again, the issue never happened until after connecting the battery back up following the radio install (could just be coincidence!)

    Curious if anyone has dealt with their immobilizer like this before...
    Oh also, the dealership said the battery was fine.

    Installed TPO front bumper shellz from Ecoological. @EC1 Very pleased with how it turned out. Messing with the parking sensors was the trickiest part.





    Haven't completed the wiring for my AMP Powersteps yet. All doors work except for the driver door. If anyone knows which wire to connect to for a 2017 let me know. :annoyed:

    Dang you.... I'm torn between color matching all the chrome on the front or doing the blue grille and black bumper... I think I'll get my grille pieces painted and installed and then decided once I can see my truck in person.
    Truck looks awesome!
