What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Yes... I've been happy very happy w/it. It replaced my OttoCast dongle (which would sit in the tray w/a wire connected to the data port). This unit has never tech (supposedly faster speeds), but much of that is limited to the phone and apps. For me it's nice to not have a wire plugged in and routing to the dongle sitting on the tray area. For some reason, I'd always get things hung up in that damn wire....

 

Nice. Might have to give it a try as I am annoyed by the unit sitting in the tray spot where I like to put my wallet. I bought the 90 degree USB adapter to put my dongle under the console but have been too lazy to do that project.

 

The Motorola MA-1 works well, too...but hangs low...

 

Maybe that's why it works well...

 

Valid point!

 

Went to Harbor Freight and picked up a couple lights for the new bumper. Also added the go fast license plate.

 

Yes the first set of these have been built and a couple installed. I should have my set in a week and will have installed soon after

 

Another update on this that nobody asked for, of course my alignment bolts in the LCA are seized, so LCA's, Cam Bolts, Ball Joint Attachment Plates, and Spindle bolts are ordered. Going to basically have a completely new front end when this is all said and done, with extra anti-seize to boot. Such is life.

 

Was in a similar situation a few years back after taking the truck to the dealer for some minor thing. Dealership ended up boogering the steering components so badly that they replaced the entire box on their dime(after trying to foist the cost on me). I had new UCAs installed due to the exact issues you are having, so suspension wise, I'm OK right now.

 

Yeah I’m not exactly stoked about the whole ordeal, but having a fresh front end on a truck with 142k miles that sees a lot of dirt and rocks isn’t a bad thing either.

 

Sounds like an issue with the 128gb vs 256gb?

 

Got mine in mail yesterday, hooked it up no problem.

 

Added a couple accessories to my tailgate, tie downs and a rough country tailgate lowering shock

 

Put on some RB30's. Looks like Real Truck totally took over Rhino and they are now branded RT. Lots of extra parts had me a little confused, but once I figured it out it went quickly. Don't regret the power socket wrench I got last year, makes jobs like this a lot easier adjusting the bolts and putting things on and off.

 

Put a bit of loctite on the thread of the shock body....they back out after a while.

 

I was thinking about doing that just didn't have any available at the moment, noticed it was kinda loose when I unpacked it, thanks for confirming my suspicion!

Heck ya man!!!!

 

Thanks Robert! I'm beyond excited about how she looks and more importantly how she rides. This Eibach kit is an awesome kit. Thanks for pointing me towards that plus it didn't burn a huge hole in my wallet

 

Nice!!

 

Damn!!! Nice work there…

 

Thanks!

 

Oil and Filter Change

We run 10w-30 now

That filter is a bit different eh

'21 DCLB 4x4 29K miles

 

How’s the ride? I’m looking at same kit to replace my TRD PRO BILLYS, but wondering also how stage 1 is compared to stage 2. I want a SOFT ride

truck looks great, nice work!

 

Have you got all the oil change goodies?

 

Thank you!

Sorry, been out cruising. The ride feels amazing. It's a huge improvement from my stock TRD Bilsteins. This setup eats up all the bumps in the road. I haven't taken it off-road but I can imagine it'll handle dirt roads great. I know there are far better options but at this price, it's hard to pass up. If you're looking to buy it, and don't want to spend a hefty price, I'd get them.

 

Looks really good!!!!

 

Thank ya!
