What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Cleaned the old girl up. Been a while as she is no longer a mall crawler.


Also added sequential turn taillights and added some Lamin-x gunsmoke tint to the third brake light.

 

Washed the beauty & the beast.

What taillights are those? Any hyperflash?

 

@RainMan_PNW has solutions for you needing more switches...

 

Chipping away at the todo list

 

lol

 

Bought some Toytec Aluma 2.5s today. Bilstein 5160 rears from Colton @memario1214. Thanks dude. You're a good guy, a fun person to talk to with tons of information, and an easy person to want to buy stuff from.

 

What kind of front bumper you got on that beast? Did you add a hood scoop to the hood? Any issues with TSS system with that bumper? Looks great!

 

It is a Barricade HD Stubby Front Bumper with Winch Mount. Also, it comes without winch mount. No issues with TSS.

 

Big girl barely squeezed under I 70 at the North end of Eagle Canyon Trail...

 

New stickers came in. A fine addition to my collection.

 

Eeessh not a chance my shit box would fit lol

 

Yeah, I think LT would be a problem... whoever designed these underpasses didn't have big vehicles in mind.

 

And the width of those glass fenders…

 

I wasn’t claustrophobic at all until seeing that pic. Whew!

 

If your truck is a shit box then mine is a shit bag (a few levels down from a shit box)

 

Thanks! I forgot to mention that I added the hood scoop using OEM parts. Also, I saw some aftermarket parts on Ebay and Amazon for a fraction of the OEM cost but not sure about the QA.

I posted detailed videos on YouTube about both the hood scoop and the semi bumper installations including the winch mount.

 

Blacked out (spray painted) the TOYOTA letters in the grille. If I had to do all over again… I wouldn’t.

Before:


After:

 

that is amazing.

 

should have painted them white

 

I thought about it, but when I saw this similar looking truck… I don’t know… I don’t like it. I think it just pops out too much…

 

Installed Blaze Off Road’s Garmin Ready to Run kit. Had to drill two holes and use 1/4-20 riv-nuts to make it work. Finally got to put up Baja Designs Squadron Pros with CBI ditch brackets. Love it. 6 beers.

 

I picked up my bed from the powdercoater today and got it all bolted down.

 

I need to convince my wife to let me do this to my truck...

 

Fantastic work as usual!

Did you reinforce your frame in any way with this? I just know how much mine flexes, and I could imagine this headache rack smacking the cab in certain offroad situations.

But dang, majorly want one!

 

Better to ask forgiveness than permission?

 

Thanks man! The bed actually stiffened up the back half of the truck quite a bit. I didn't really see the need in reinforcing it more than that at the moment.

 

Thanks to the recommendation by some of the members, I applied some cerakote trim wipes to my front Spider rack and it doesn’t look so off anymore next to the new matching canopy rack I recently installed. Also added a few grab handles to both racks from Amazon and am happy with them.

 

Looks great! Can I ask where you got your bed. I keep damaging mine and when I buy out my lease next month, flat bed is about the only thing missing for me. But it seems limited to companies out west or mid-west, I am on the east coast.

VLAND LED Tail Lights Compatible with 2014-2021 Toyota Tundra, with Red Sequential Turn Signal, with Startup Animation DRL, Clear.

No hyperflash at all on my 2020. Looks like a resistor was added as part of the design. I bought it off Amazon.
