What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

So I might try my luck at eyeballing a hole into the cover cap, so it cleans up the screw/standoff a little better

 

I’m likin this idea lol it looked like it was missing something in the pictures

 

Made a shower bag bracket for the Sedona trip coming up. No trees, no problem; you can see my who-ha, your problem!
I should be able to tie a tarp to my swing out, while it’s open and make a sweet Lil shower stall.

 

You have a who-ha? You sure you know what that means?

You may need to change this.

 

So did y’all with a scan gauge have to program codes in for the trans temp?

I think I’ve got trans temp pulled up on my ultra gauge and it was pre programmed in

 

Yeah SG requires you to input them yourself

 

I use the word at work way to much, so it just carries over.

 

Ultragauge is pretty cool. My only real complaint is that it will self destruct in the Summer. Be careful how hot your car gets with that thing or the screen can fail. I pulled mine out for the Summer and hoping I don't have to calibrate it again.

Scan gauge doesn't seem to care how hot or cold it is outside. To be fair mine has only seen 30f at the coldest.

 

SG does fine in the heat, shoot, the company is based in Mesa Az. I’m sure the warehouse isn’t climate controlled!
I’ve actually been to their office to buy mine and have them set it up to read tire pressure, super nice people!

 

Tire pressure! Thats a new one.

In other news I finally did it. I finally got the beer fridge in my garage tuned to get beer just below freezing. Perfect.

 

@Darkness @FrenchToasty i wondered about that. My edge in the Cummins is the same way, no issues with heat. It’s mounted on the a pillar and doesn’t care what time of the year it is . I guess if the ultra grenades I pick up a scan gauge lol

 

Yep tire pressure!!
I think I need to pull the one we use in the back room and change the filter dryer and recharge; I feel like it’s low on gas, keep seeing lots of frost on the back wall. We had issues with the Receptacle it was plugged into, changed that. And then one day it was off on overload, so I’m thinking I’m not getting enough cooling back to the compressor from a low charge or clogged drier; usually it leaks from the factory crimp offs

 

Did they show you how?! My ocd ass needs this!

 

Hmm, I would add TPMS to my truck if a scan gauge could give me live PSI readouts. Wonder if that would be possible on the early trucks.

 

This came from a old 4runner thread, but I think you could mail them your unit, and they will reprogram it so it can support tire pressure and whatever else.
I hadn’t bought one yet, so I just contacted them directly and picked it up from their office in the valley of doom!
I’d email or call and ask them what would need to be done.

 

Oh it doesn’t do that out of the box? Womp womp. I’m game for reprogram but it’s not possible to DIY?

 

Yeah I’m not sure when the cutoff would be, maybe we need the committee on this one, but I think your a 1.5 gen, so maybe you would have the capability

 

When did you buy it? I think at the time, old versions needed to be updated, but current versions were sent out game on

 

Oh sweet. It’s been in a pile for about a week.

 

Damn I thought I was bad about having shit just waiting to be installed!

 

That’s only the Tundra side.

 

Good answer!!!

 

Yes. Same codes as 2nd gen taco

 

05-06 trucks can have it.

 

Oh but not me? It needs needs the ECU TPMS? Bummer.

 

Yea. But there’s aftermarket options out there to show tpms if you really wanted it

 

Getting the truck ready for the beach trip. Went to grease the upper ball joints and found red grease. I don't own red grease. Apparently they lubed them when they did the alignment recently.

Removed the rear seat. One nice bonus is that those hooks are useful for holding things.

 

Take pix of your trip, please, the Outer Banks are beautiful.

 

First time seeing the new bumper, looks great!

 

So late night break testing happened tonight.. I really need to get these rear disks done. Pressed the pedal as hard as I possibly could, balance front and rear feels great, but full force on the pedal ABS doesn’t do anything. My grip to the road is better than my brakes. Must fix this.
