What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

That would be great if they did. I’m unsure. I was thinking of searching for a different vehicle’s sunvisor that I could get in black that would fit.

 

Looks good! I only need it for fold button, any link to the LEDs you ended up using? Nice mod, I am often looking for that fold button in the dark...

 

Very nice. This is honestly probably the “easiest/best result for time investment” version that I’ve seen on this mod.

there was a member on here years ago who scammed a few ppl out of quite a bit of money claiming they had figured out how to use an OEM illuminated mirror switch. I researched and researched but couldnt figure out how they did it. Turns out it was a lie. This is a much better option

 

Thanks, here is the link for the LEDs I used:

Nice! I am glad to hear that! When I was looking for alternatives to adapt a factory illuminated switch, I found many variations on its configuration by model. This is why I did it this way. I made a video long time ago PART 1 that showed how to make the holes in preparation for the LEDs and recently I did the second part including the final steps. Here are the links if you are interested. If you have questions or needs additional information please let me know.

whats with the waviness on the hood bulge?

 

Looks like it has wrap on it

 

Camping at the Southeast Adventure Vehicle Expo this weekend. Rainy night but all is good, looking forward to an interesting day.

 

Your paint work looks good

 

Looks like fun, have a blast!

Like your bike reminds me of Snoop

Steelcraft front and rear bumpers. Waiting on Rigid lights to arrive.

 

Came across your first video months ago lol Good to see you finally got around to completing the process.

 

Looks like he drilled little holes in the switches and put LEDS behind them. I’ve seen a similar approach posted somewhere

edit - I see everything’s been answered.
I’ll go back to drinking my coffee

 

First time I've seen LEDs in the 'Jelly Fish Launcher' switch

 

Thanks! Snoop and I have been known to share similar interests.

 

Some people just like to be spoon fed.

 

oil change day, some RP 0w-20 and Wix XP filter.
got to install my votex drain valve, so moving forward oil changes shouldn't be so messy .
Some might wonder why but I got crap luck when it comes to oil changes, every time without fail as soon as I get the drain plug off a burst of wind decides it's time to make it splash everywhere

 

Moving along, headliner is upholstered black suede.

 

Good on your for looking out for their well being. It’s sometimes hard to think from other people’s perspectives. I have dogs. In general I love dogs. I got attacked as a little kid by a dog. A German Shepard no less. If one jumped a fence and ran at me barking it might not end well. We owe it to ourselves, our dogs and our neighbors to be 100% confident in our securement of the hounds.

 

I know you got a velvet pic of Elvis tacked up in your garage ...

 

Did the rear diff - otherwise fairly clean but found a really weird large shaving.





Did the front diff - the oil was sort of gray, but otherwise pretty clean. So I'll hold off on the xfer case until 60k. Did install the Lexus bolts to replace those weird 3/8" hex key ones... They were a pain to remove. What a weird design choice.


Should I be concerned about the rust on the axle? I think it's mostly surface corrosion, but it rusted so quick on this truck; the rest of the underside is more or less pristine.

Finally installed the TRD front sway bar.


Tomorrow I'll reinstall the cat plates and then call it done until I do it all again at 60k... Along with xfer case, trans, and coolant.

 

Fools Rush In is my wedding song.

 

Viva Las Vegas here.

 

All that is meh.

 

I'm interested to see how you like this. I’ve saved one in my Amazon cart.

 

Y'know, sometimes I finish a long run and my legs are a bit sore. I overthink/over diagnose that too

 

Jelly fish launcher

 

I know! It's gonna forever know as that!

 

I put my RCI gas tank skid plate on. Something always makes a project harder. At least for me it does. The bolt near the frame holding the rear strap was hard to get out to the point where the nut weld broke. So, I had to cut the bolt with a dremmel. And put a new nut and bolt in. I had a fire extinguisher ready and put a lot of wet rags around where I was cutting because of spark. It made me nervous.

 

We have a media PC, hooked up to our home theater system, in our living room. As I'm sitting here scrolling through this thread (back from 2022), our flat-screen is the display, the wife, who's siting next to me knitting, suddenly says, "I think you should get cat shields for the Tundra."

She's not yet any idea that Fedex is delivering an order from RCI, today.
