What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

TN, you’re close enough. Comon’ by, bring beer, lots of beer…

 

If I only knew a couple weeks ago.... we just took our daughter to NYC for a graduation trip, and I'm from western NY originally and it's only 12hr drive back home so depending on what part of NY it's not a trip I haven't took before. The beer may get warm though

 

Hit 60K today, need to give him a bath inside and out

 

Suffolk County, LI. I’m always here, just retired.

 

Nice, congratulations on retirement!
I'm originally from Allegheny county NY

 

Nice, I went to school up that way. Thanks on the retirement.

 

Color matched mirrors installed.

 

So gorgeous! Daaaaang!! Nice work!!

 

Thanks!

 

Ain't that purdy! Nice job!

 

Thank you!

 

Oof. Just remember, your one fowled up thread away from your entire night going to hell. Picked up a new set of rear shocks at Toytec’s customer appreciation day last Saturday as I had a blown 5100 on the right rear.
Figured I’d throw them on while the oil drained out of the truck. Passenger rear went fine, 5 minutes in and out. Went to change the filter and then came back to do the left rear.
Thanks to Colorado switching from mag chloride to road salt, the top nut decided to volunteer as tribute to save the shock from removal. An hour and a half of heating, PB Blaster, that TikTok crayon trick, cursing and regretting my existence and I finally got the old shock off. New one was on in 5 minutes and truck feels much better.

 

Ole sawzall to the rod will make that dude give up quick

 

I always seem to use the sawzall trick, myself...it always comes down to: are you going to use this again or is anyone else going to buy it? 99% of the time, it's trash afterwards...so the sawzall is a great facilitator of that mindset! Ha!

 

I wish. In my infinite wisdom I decided to tackle all this after work. I didn't get home until 7pm and the neighbor already hates me.

 

So i convinced my godfather to buy vled footwell lights for his new to him 2017 tundra sr and id put em in for him, he has no footwell light socket to plug the vled kit into! Anyone know which wire i can tap into that has power when the footwell light would normally be powered, (opening doors , unlocking them) any help would be great

 

There’s only one on the driver’s side. If there is no socket, I bet the wiring is still there.

 

Are you sure? Just above the parking brake pedal and very small

 

Installed the JXB Performance driveshaft carrier bearing bushing kit.

 

Never heard of it, is it more of a supercharger application or is there any benefit to a N/A offroad rig? Looks good!

 

Good benefits on offroad rigs as well. The factory one has a ton of play

 

Mine’s N/A with headers and full exhaust. Still makes a great improvement over stock

 

Why? Can you help me understand why this upgrade makes sense.

 

Because race car.

 

So is this one of the bilt ons ppl recommend when adding a SC?

 

this is a bolt on for that, offroading, or if you simply want a better unit than the oem piece

 

My carrier bearing was 9 years old with 155K miles on it. Had a very slight clunk going from drive to reverse, etc. This upgrade firmed up the driveshaft and smoothed out power delivery, without introducing any weird vibrations at all.

 

How long did this upgrade take? Seems pretty straightforward...

 

But does it come in blue?

Ask the serious questions

 

You know that was a question I looked into!
