What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Thank you Sir! You and I are of the same mindset. I've taken it out a few times here and there but never really had the time to get into some places like I had gotten into yesterday. But now that I'm retired, the hound and I are exploring all the old logging roads and whatnot. I think where I was at was more of a SXS trail. Big ole Tundra barely fit in some spots. Had to fold the mirrors. Had to stop when a couple of downed trees blocked my path. If I had my chainsaw, I could have taken care of it. But, alas, I did not. So, I had to make my own turn around.

 

hmm which comments...

 

I found where someone printed a flat plate, but not the whole piece with screw holes and supports. Plus I couldn’t find the STL file needed.

 

Saturday Shine-Up

 

We are officially on baby watch. He is due on the 1st... So it could be any day now although I think it will be the 2nd. Just because. No evidence.

But I am moving around like crazy getting all the final things done that I can. Packed my hospital bag today and then put these bases in the vehicles. Hit like a ton of bricks that this was real lol.

 

reach out to @Chelly here on the forum. He makes them, and at a very reasonable price. I think he's also got a shop on Etsy or something, but I bought mine from him through the site here.

 

Installed the Rough Country speedometer calibrator and an SD Road Active Suspension kit in anticipation for a trip out west in a few weeks. Ever since going to 315's my transmission shift points have been jacked, it is amazing how big of a difference a 3 mph adjustment made. Also, the RAS kit was super easy to install, no need to remove the shackle with the Trail Gear +.85 shackles, it slide right in. It is very nice having the back where it should be with the topper, tools, and decked drawers. Pulling the camper should be better too, have not hooked it up yet.

 

Installed the TRD airflow accelerator and removed the upper filter.Grab you some Tow Haul button and to hell with the Pedal Commander and save that money for another mod.Yeah I cleaned the airbox while I had it off!!!

 

You’re going to love the responsiveness of the throttle now… trust me

 

Yes it's very obvious..... better acceleration and shift points

 

Without any tune too. It feels much more controlled. Have you tried tracking your MAF to see how much airflow you’re getting per minute?

 

No I haven't

 

So is this the only part you’re talking about to replace? From my understanding, does it also require a little cutting in the wall panel for this accelerator?

 

No cutting at all.

 

Write-up?

 

All you’re really doing is just removing your air box, taking out the OE intake tube by prying it with a screwdriver. Then pop the TRD intake accelerator into the existing slot for the air intake, and lining up the slot with the box (as seen in photo).

 

And if you guys are wondering, here’s a video of how to install that part.

Noice! Thank you, looks like I have a new mod coming!

 

Replaced rear brake pads and rotors today. I had a lot of pulsating in the steering wheel and the pedal. Front pads/rotors fixed the steering wheel shake a month ago and now the rear pads/rotors fixed the pulsation in the pedal.

Exciting I know.

 

Same here!

 

Compatible with a future S/C?

 

Yeah, it’ll be, but at that point you’ll be getting a CAI. So you’re changing out your airbox anyway.

 

Swapped out my old Husky Floor matts with the Wolfbox 3W floor matts, i liked how it has a little carpets in the front. Also the weather was amazing so washed and and ceramic coated the truck. I used the recommended ceramic and iron remover from my boy at ProjectFarm, i always trust his recommendations.

Would you know if this part comes stock with my ‘21 TRD Pro?

 

Not sure, you can pop open your hood and see. I think it may be an addition though, so will have to purchase separately.

 

That New England salt damage is real. Completely pulled my RCI engine and transmission skids and boy, did that salt do a lot of damage. Used a cone steel wire and a disc steel wire with a drill and went into town with it.

So far only got the front side of the engine skid primer and painted, now gotta get the back side and get the trans skid done too.

Still wet, but seems pretty nice once dried.

 

It does not come stock.

 

Thanks Bulldog

 

I installed some moose knuckle jowl shackles and then got out for a quick overnight trip with the wife and kids.

 

Can’t wait to get a rack to mount my RTT, then make a quick overnight trip. LOL
