What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Merry Christmas everyone!!

 

⛄

 

Thank you! I was a bit nervous it’ll be to much chrome/polish but I think it balances great!

 

Merry Christmas to you all!

 

Finally got the truck cleaned up enough to take some pics and vids of stuff I’ve added over the last few weeks

Dual 5150 whips on their redesigned controller. It’s much nicer than the old controller, with a lot of room for customization of patterns but not as many out of the box. Overall happy with the upgrade

Just put in an order to get my Toytec 2.5” coilovers rebuilt. They have 93k on them and one’s leaking pretty badly. That honestly seems like an extremely good lifespan. Since they’re otherwise fine (no rust, etc), can I really run them indefinitely with periodic rebuilds?

 

As long as you're getting quality parts with your rebuilds, I don't see why you couldn't. Generally maintenance intervals for rebuildable coilovers are more in the 40-50K mile range, so increasing maintenance frequency will likely help with longevity as well

 

I just did the same on mine. Scored this one on Amazon for $150 just before they sold out.

Ugh, that sucks man! I had some rodents in mine as well. Luckily, no electrical or any damage. They just loaded up my blower motor with acorns and chewed up some shit in my console. I assume you have electrical damage, given that you had it towed?

 

Well, that sucks. Backed my Tundra out of the garage on Saturday, noticed fluid dripping from front passenger side. Turned out to be windshield washer fluid, as the hose that runs out of the base of the tank had a hole in it. Pulled the hose off, snipped off the end, put it back on. Noticed rodent poop on top of the engine. Set the big Victor traps out, and caught one later that day. Thought I was done...

Backing my truck out Sunday morning, and was amazed to see a leak again. Same place, same cause. Fixed the hose, and set the traps out again, and sometime that night, found a rat looking up at me, with the bar on the trap slammed right behind its eyeballs. Tossed it, and re-baited traps, hope I got them this time.

Totally ignored the wife's suggestion to get a cat. Why trade one bad situation for another?

 

A devilish time on Christmas...

 

Love my new knobbies from Mace Manufacturing - https://www.macemfg.com/

 

Just peeled this sticker off the visor since it was already falling off n got left with a bit of residue and can still see the shape of where the sticker was. A bit of an eyesore so now looking to maybe fill it with some patches. I know I've seen lots of headliners being filled with patches on here. Need some inspiration and ideas

 

That looks siiick. Where'd you get those? It's topo, right?

If ya wanna just get the residue off this is the stuff for the job. Just don't saturate it, it could affect the adhesive under the liner. Make sure it's the cleaner not the detailer.

 

Thank you

 

Sure thing. It works great on everything in the interior. I use it on carpet stains, seat spills, dusty dash, and once every 6 months or so on my headliner since I smoke in my truck.

 

I know you are showing us your sticker but I am very impressed by the tool wall - especially Milwaukee!

 

Haha thank you Steve! My bro got me those Wall Control peg boards and I'm loving them. They help with my OCD


You should see my tool drawers

 

Just beautiful organization - I love it (because I have none).

 

I couldn’t get that residue off (though I didn’t try the suggested Griots specifically). I covered that area with metal self-adhering American flags.

 

What's on your headliner?

 

Looks like an aftermarket black suede liner

 

Yep, I reupholstered in black suede

 

Slick.

 

This is on my list also. Shoot some pics of it

 

I’ll send em

 

Even better!
