What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Heck yeah! Been on KC135R for 12 years. Love that jet. Was our SRAN Engine Manager back when I was an ART. Was in Engine Management back when I was active duty at Cannon 06-07. Miss the F15 days at Kadena 02-06. Deployed to the Deid in 2021 with a couple of your jet troops. Good guys.

 

Added some cup holder inserts from Amazon. The fit is pretty good and they seem to be decent quality.

 

Thanks! its 1/2 that exist on Earth; @RegGex has the nicer one.

 

New exhaust tip. Wanted to get the exhaust out from under the bumper to help with some of the drone. I was gonna test it and pick up my daughter but I was told to start grilling steaks so I’ll have to wait until tomorrow. On start up though the inside of the cab doesn’t buzz so that’s promising.

I will say this, whatever dummy at Toyota thought they needed to expand the last inch of exhaust pipe for whatever reason needs there head examined. What was supposed to be a simple chop, slide on, clamp, job turned into an ordeal with a sledge, a vise, and my welder. I won’t show pics of the welds because the steel for the tip and the exhaust pipe is garbage and it kept blowing out even with the welder turned all the way down. Need to spend some time with a grinder on it.

 

Ok.... bad to the bone.... enough said James @tech12volts the amp added to the replacement sub insane. I am half deaf and even I cannot put it at max. the sub vibrates the entire Truck. like many have said before this is how it should come from the factory. blows the doors off my Mercedes high end system.

 

Thank you! Trust me, my LED bar in the bed is nothing fancy, just a steel bracket I made to link the LED bar’s bracket to the bed rail. Stainless security bolts and t-nuts in the rail.

 

How did the amp install go? Any issues? Any tips?

 

sent PM. I had a couple hiccups but nothing I did not figure out.

 

Traction bars came in. Waiting on heim joints.

 

your fridge needs some slaps

 

Bought some goodies to celebrate. Update when they come in.

 

Not mine, but finished getting parking assist sonar working in another US-spec ‘21 TRD Pro

 

Well done! Soon Toyota will be requiring your service. Great work Casey

 

Forged from the heart of @THORYOTA ’s dying star

 

Pulled out a fellow tundra who got stuck in the snow/mud. After a bunch of pulls and head scratching we found out he slid into a stump that was lodged in his wheel well. Anothe guy came by and had a chainsaw. Once that was cut out, pulled him right out!

 

Nice job Casey.

 

That’s sick

 

So what's the back story? Did they not have it or they had it and it was not working?

 

US, PRO's don't come with it.

 

Mine doesn't have it as an SR5, but the back up camera tells me all I need to know.

 

This came yesterday, hopefully get it installed tomorrow. Can not wait!!
on a side note, rear shocks came all black, is this something new with toytec?

 

Nice! Dont forget to grease the ball joints. When you install them, install them in the neutral position and pulled all the way out towards the outside of the truck. It's "D" on the install sheet I believe.

 

Ok guys, I gotta ask. Where are you getting the business card inserts for the switches? I want to do the rear window relocation, my sub knob, and an auxiliary switch for front light bar.

Help a brother out?

 

Here is one version

https://www.tundras.com/threads/fs-3-switch-panel-insert-plate.94140/

there are a few different versions out there

 

I got mine from @abomb60 he was selling on here at one time. There may be others as well.

 

Nice. I wonder the same thing. That is the setup I’m looking at. I kinda like the black.

 

Installed the Valhalla shield skid plate and cat shields....nice quality...

 

I removed the TracRac as I probably won't be flying much till March or April. Then I added a quick convenience mod today. No one wanted to buy my 4Runner Victory molle panels, so I re-used one on the Tundra.



I added an organizer for my light/knife/leatherman and a dump bag for my Nalgene bottle. I may add the second one to the pax side if my wife wants it there, but it will cover up the little cubby hole. I'll tighten up the leather strap holding the organizer but it works fine as a proof of concept. I may add a holster to the slot for it, but it's not very secure and wobbles a lot, so I'll probably find a better place to mount it.
