What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

look like the tyger auto ones. I have them and they've held up nice so far. hell of a lot cheaper than the bushwhackers

 

Thank you. Agreed, Bushwhackers are pricey. I was looking to Bushwhackers b/c I wanted to do a color match. From what I'm seeing, they (BW) don't offer that for the Gen 2.5 anymore. I just checked Tyger, and while I like their price point, they don't offer color match either. The only other one I've found (so far) that will do color match (040) is Rough Country. Still trying to get a sense of their quality though.

@Gecko. I initially wasn't going to paint mine since I have MBM 218 and the flares come black. but bare ABS seems to scratch fairly easy so I ended up rattle canning them with matte black and a gloss clear coat and they turned out well. If I had to color match anything other than black not sure if I would've went that route

 

I color matched my plastic flares on my Tacoma. Just went and got quality paint in a can from an auto body supply store, made sure to hit them with plastic adhesion promotor first, then paint and then finished with a clear coat. It’s been years with no problems. Cost about $80 in paint products

 

Ok Guys,
She finally got delivered yesterday! 2019 1794, BDS 6" Lift with 33X12.5X20. Got her off the trailer and went straight for a bath and then to my tire guy. Put on 37s- I will next be working on fender flares, spacers (I think it rubs a little too much) and chrome delete.

How she came


This morning

 

How’s the 37s feel? Planning on re gearing?

 

No Plans to re-gear at the moment. Put about 20 miles on the 33's and 50 on the 37's so far, and from what I can tell it seems to be fine. She will be a pavement princess- and did great on the highway.

 

Need flares? Only used about 4 months before they came off and been in the garage since. I wanted to figure out how to ship before creating a “for sale” listing here. I’m in the Bay Area / Central Valley.

 

I’m assuming it doesn’t matter I have a crew max?

 

Honestly, didn’t think about that. And I’m not sure. I’ll see if I can get a part number or something off of them today.

 

Looks like the same part number, for both trucks, and from comparing part number from my flares to a website. I’ll message you the details.

 

Damn! Lucky there was no fire

 

I'm not sure that came with the truck. They looks similar to the rough country flares but I don't think they are. They were in the bed of the truck when I bought them. Decided after I lifted the truck to put them on.

 

They may have been dealer installed, but they are definitely not factory flairs.

 

After lots of back and forth, I finally ordered some tires. Went with the new 295/70R18 Falken Wildpeak AT4w and picking up new SCS F5 wheels in black. Should look really good.

 

Would love to see the finished product when everything is installed

 

They were not dealer option or dealer installed. I installed them

 

Did some 60k maintenance today: oil change and tire rotation

Gonna add:
Diffs and TC oil (did at 30k as well)
Transmission drain and fill
Might bleed brakes and power steering as well.

 

You didn't like the Corolla cross?

 

These are sweet!!

 

Thank you Geno! High praise coming from a detail-driven gentleman such as yourself!

 

Anyone have good recommendations for a MagSafe charger I can mount somewhere convenient? I do not need charging capability, just something compatible with a MagSafe case (Android S23 FE).

Currently looking at this as an option:

$50 Spigen OneTap 3 (MagFit) Designed for MagSafe Dashboard, Windshield, & Screen Car Mount Compatible with iPhone 16 Pro Max, 16 Pro, 16 Plus, 15, 14, 13, 12 Series, and MagSafe Compatible Cases

Thanks!

 

bought a pole saw and was surprised how much I cut down. Back end was sagging a bit. Giving off Sanford and Son vibes. That was the first of three loads.

 

You ask about a magsafe charger, and they say you don't need charging??

Spigen is good but I didn't know they did mounts. Depending where you plan to attach the suction cup might not work. Check out Scosche and MobArmor, both have magsafe mounts and mounts that charge and mount using a small footprint that is versatile and non-permanent

My fav color... The new Solar Octane looks like a Tic Tac.

 

Whoops! Posted that message right before I walked into a meeting and realized I did not include enough info, sorry about that. All I need is a MagSafe compatible mount. One that will keep my phone upright and visible (for GPS) just to the right of my steering wheel. My phone battery is very good so I do not need charging capability built into the stand.

The mounts on Scosche's website look to do what I need! Thank you!

 

Wife just got this one for the LandCruiser and loves it.
