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

I would just pick tent camping since you aren't pulling a trailer. I hope to see you there!

 

Welp, I just registered! Me and my dog will see you guys there! Dogs are allowed right?

Edit: Just saw... Dogs are most definitely allowed!

 

Welcome aboard!



Glad we got to you in time.

 

Pops drove Crackie for the first time today. Said it's a road wagon. I asked him what he meant. He said he likes the way it sounds. Said it brought back precious memories of his Regular cab, big block '79 Ford.

I was able to take some pictures of Crackie going down the road first the first time. Damn, I think it looks mean as hell running down the road.


This S23 camera is phenomenal! Most of these pictures are from same.distance back ad the first one.

 

Hell yeah!!!

 

Got my truck back today, loaned to family for the last two weeks. Not bad, they only put ~400 miles on it doing a Blue Ridge vacation and left it with 3/4's of a tank (only had a 1/4 when they took it).

All seems well!

 

Headlight restoration then engine... was thinkin of selling my boy but most likely will just buy

 

Busy day today. Rear passenger tire was low AGAIN, so I finally got pissed off and decided I'd pull it and check. Looks like I had the latter half of a finishing nail stuck in it. Pulled it, plugged it, reinflated, good to go.

Got my oil change done while at it. Drove to NAPA and back to get everything in the crankcase nice and hot, solvent, to flush things out. I can tell I pulled a good bit more stuff out of the crankcase with how dark the oil was. And NAPA b/c Mobil1 has a campaign with NAPA through end of month $25 gift card when you buy 10qt oil, so I did.

While I was changing the oil, the wife decided to re-pot some plants on the deck above me and got dirt all over the truck so I washed it. Pics or it didn't happen...

Been an expensive week for vehicles, $550 for brakes on the Altima and I just spend $540 on Armstrong Tru-Trac HTs for the Tundra.

Township graded the road last week and apparently pulled up something that put a rather large puncture in the left rear. Tires aren't too far off the wear bars so it's time for new ones.

 

Bled the brakes, changed out the rear Billies for Fox 2.0s, ate some pizza, and took a nap. Need to take a truck for a shakedown.

 

I've been watching some pressure washing videos - garden transformation stuff. Clean trucks really highlight the driveway.

 

Yup, got a pressure washer, and the driveway is sadly on the honey-do list right now.

 

Guy has 4 of these 17” with center caps on CL in DFW area for $250 right now! Sad I’m traveling at the moment.

 

I sold my second set like a year ago. First set went to the scrap yard before I found out they were worth more than $90 in scrap

 

I got a set with cap in LA, been sitting in my garage

 

I need an update. I was thinking about upgrading my rear billies.

 

Spooled(am I spelling that right?) my winch today, it’s a little chubby because I didn’t really have a load on it when I spooled it, just my hand pressure with a glove on. I used a rear coil isolater off a 4runner as a “bump stop” when getting the factor27 splicer snugged up.
i also used one of these line locks on the wraps, to prevent a full unspool of the rope(8wraps minimum) this is just a representation of it, not actually installed on the drum*

 

I've got a set of shackles just dyin to get some of that

 

Bring it brother!!! I’m glad I finally got it done, it will be a nice addition and a safety aspect if somebody needs help. The usual suspects I go with don’t have a winch, I don’t think, so we can get a little wilder if need be. I need to use some sharpie or get a sticker made, custom faced mount means out is in, and in is out; on the controller.

 

Still no eta on the ARB?

 

When you get your big boy tires, finish nails will no longer be a threat.... just sayin.

 

closed over the weekend. ships tomorrow. It better ship tomorrow

 

Sending good vibes

 

Viking vibes

 

From girls and guys of all tribes.

 

I just have no idea at tis point, could be a 4 day thing, or I could get an email saying it's 6 to 8 week backorder.

 

Whatever raises your flag

 

Then you made it weird

 

Well if you end up one wheel peeling, you can always ride with me til I get tied of you.

 

I’ve got one of those flags too!
