What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

So, are there any of the inductive chargers that actually work for all phones? I have been reading that they don't work with the newer iphones. I would like to add one to my 21, but don't want to install something that isnt going to work.

 

Anybody have any discount codes for Meso Customs?

already applied at check out. There won’t be any other discount codes out there. Made my first order in 2018, there hasn’t been any other code except some holiday sales, or new product discounts that applied for a short time.

 

Talk to us about your hood bulge lights…

 

I appreciate the additional pics. That dome doesn’t look like it matches the buttons very well. I guess I don’t stare at it so maybe I wouldn’t notice it that much.

 

Finished the front hub + wheel bearing assembly install on both sides.

Glad to be done with that one..

 

Wheel bearings common points of failure on Tundras or was this an upgrade? I know my Silverado seems burn through them.

 

Haven’t heard of them being a common thing but my left hub was going bad right at 100k. I off road my truck quite a bit so it made sense. Figured I’d swap both and call it good. I went OEM bearings which are KOYOs, there’s a store on eBay that sells them pressed into the assembly so you can bolt on the whole thing. Easier for DIY guys

 

Did you go with OEM hub's as well? My passenger side is going bad. Wondering if it's worth just changing the bearing or both hub and bearing.

 

I purchased this kit here that I found on the forum: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1644094840...Skn6pZwRRm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

if you’re planning on doing it yourself, I’d just get the whole assembly. I did some damage to both of my old hubs when trying to get them off the axle. That’s really the only tough part.

Edit: wow just noticed out of stock.. I ordered mine about 2 weeks ago.

 

Thank you! I've been waiting for them to come back in stock - probably just going to do both at the same time too.

 

I'm not trying to say one way or the other but I would be very careful purchasing bearings off of ebay. There are a TON of fake koyo bearings being passed around.
I replaced mine with units from Blue Pit Bearings and last I talked to Andy he was one of the only importers of koyo bearings direct from Japan.

I've also had him warranty a bearing for me with little hassle and they even autopsied the old one. I was a silverado guy and these trucks eat them more from my experience - but my tundra is on 37's so it's not apples/apples.

 

while I normally wouldn’t, there were some guys on here that had quite the life span out of there. I guess I’ll find out, I would’ve went with any other options had I had found it. Went with what I could find online at the time.

 

Oh I get it - again, I'm not saying one way or the other but just be careful.

 

I definitely appreciate it and if someone else gets saved from that info, all for it. Now I’m hoping mine are legit and the other forum members were right.

 

I'm sure they're fine regardless - I was honestly angry and nervous when my driver cv axle went and noticed both of my bearings were on the way out - I decided I was going to put the best oem parts on the truck I could find and do everything at once.

In the same breath you can replace them twice for the price of Blue Pit oems so there's that.

*I also had 275k miles on a gmc yukon on 35's years ago and only used autozone parts, including bearings and cv axles *shrug

 

How many miles did you have on your motor?

 

Lookin good! Where did you get your windshield cover ?

 

maybe too late, but easiest way get the axle out is by using air hammer or rotor hammer with point bit

 

55k or so

I put this in my 21 Tundra and installed it next to my front cupholder in center console. Works with my iPhone 12 with a case on it.

CoverCraft sun shade. Can either purchase directly online via their website or use eBay. I got mine on eBay or a slightly cheaper price.

 

Just snagged a set/spare of non-clapped out Rock Warriors from a forum member via FB. Just need a center cap and a ring bolt for the spare. STOKED

 

SO much going on in the one pic

Installed some take off LED Fogs on my 2016 from @jhardy1979 here on the forum, thanks for the good sale. Hit the plastic housing with some VRP Restorer from chemical guys while I had it off.
Plug and play for the older 2.5s with halogen Fogs. took 20 minutes. just waiting on my headlights.

 

What rack did you use??
