What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Hell yeah!! I just saw them a few years ago at xgames. Been a fan first time I heard them. Might have been late 90’s because off my older brother, and I’m only 35 and really only listen to the 80’s stuff anyways but still put on an awesome show!

 

FedEx dropped off some goodies today. 3 boxes from tech12volts!! Just need to wait till the processors come in.

 

Oh yes, pressing the pedal down like you would easing the vehicle out of a parking spot does almost nothing. Pressing it like a normal acceleration from a red light will get you slowly running forward. Flooring it will achieve a slightly faster then normal acceleration.

You can also hear the difference when you press the pedal. Almost like your stuck in first gear when you accelerate as oppose to when you have it in sport you can feel the rpms spike up.

 

Put my agency 6 winch shackle on. And used it the next day lol. Def going to get some soft shackles.

 

It does

 

So tonight I added the VLED puddle lights to my SR5.

I followed this: https://www.tundras.com/threads/installing-puddle-lights-on-factory-sr5-mirrors.44755/

All in all, they are bright as hell. I'm glad I did it. I love the outcome, but I would never do it again. Just me.

 

Installed the tailgate lock yesterday, and the fortin evo one remote start tonight. Also ordered up the TRD Pro kit from coachbuilder. Said I wasn’t gonna mess with this suspension…yeah, that lasted about less than 2 weeks. I can’t leave shit alone. In my defense, I’m gonna need new tires before winter

 

Mayyyyybe not a 3rd gen, but also did some suspension work on the kiddos truck.

 

What brand taillights did you go with and how do they fit? Any gaps?

 

Moved some buttons. Hoping USPS does right by me and gets me the missing piece from @abomb60 tomorrow…

 

I too have a switch bank to put there. I keep putting it off, but with the light at on the way I need to get my ass in gear.

 

Just wondering it is too hot to sleep in the bed in Florida?

 

Put in some VLED puddle and cargo lights and installed the Toyota OEM tailgate lock actuator, very easy install, no idea where the 'actual' directions are for it, so I just followed the youtube videos, only thing that I couldn't find a consensus on was the grommet going through the cab from the passenger kick panel, which direction to put the 'arrow'? I used 4 o'clock, since one of the videos mentioned it, and it makes sense to have the protruding portion of the grommet point towards the back of the truck and protected by the frame rail from the elements.

 

Lol...those are easy. You should tackle a hood bulge light bar if you didn't like installing puddle lights.

 

I wouldn't even try...its been too damn hot lately.

 

Remembering the fallen.

 

It's not that the process was hard, it's just the fucking passenger side fought me every step of the way. The work itself is easy, but it just wasn't having it. Driver's side was a breeze. I do eventually plan to do a hood bulge lightbar. My 30" stealth should be here this week too.

 

Added my favorite badge on the side. Feels more like home now.

 

275/70r18 cooper Discoverer rugged treks added last night. Tread depth is just over 18/32 so thats pretty sweet!

 

For being a brand new tire, I'm now on the fence between them and my favorite ST MAXXs! They look sharp!

 

Those tires look awesome!

 

I live in Kansas (today is 100 degrees) and yes the shell is pretty hot. I plan to use it mostly in spring and fall. I have bought one rechargeable fan and plan on adding another. I can open the side “windoors” or use the center sliders if the bugs are out. Anyway, after a long day of fishing, it’ll be fine.

 

I added N-Fab Epyx steps as the kids and wife were struggling with getting in and out after the lift.

I also installed ARB's 12v fridge power to the bed.

 

Put some miles on the ODO to go pick up my new boat!

 

Man I am getting shit done this weekend.

Finally got around to my credit card switch block.

Relocated my rear window switch, and added a light bar switch. My DD stealth bar should be here this week so I made my life easier and stubbed the switch wires by the e brake pedal so when I run the harness for the bar I don't have to rip apart my center console again.

 

Got the OEM tow mirrors on

 

New air bags to help the sag when towing

 

Installed my Hikeit X9 throttle controller. Amazing how Toyota toned down the throttle response off the assembly line. This little baby took it to a whole new level.

 

I purchased an OBD reader and the OBD Fusion app for my iPhone and iPad (so that I can monitor those ever important ATF temps). Heh-heh.
