New Tundra owner

My husband and I bought a Tundra last Friday. We thought we were going to finalize our Tacoma purchase until we realized my husband couldn't just "jump" into the Tacoma. But we could easily get into a Tundra and I felt comfortable driving it. So here we are. He has given me the ability to do mods for us. I joined the forums to be able to get information that I can't seem to find anywhere else. Thanks for letting us join.

 

Welcome from Oregon!

 

Thanks!! Look forward to learning.

 

Welcome!

First "lesson":

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! And a wife participating in the mods?!? Awesome!

 

Thanks!! And yes a wife involved with mods. Looks like I might be building the first one as I am not seeing any information about what I am trying to pull off. But I can design and build. LOL

 

Please do share, what are you trying to pull off?

 

LOL - I have the "loved" by many, owned by few front "jump seat" instead of the center console. I am thinking the "jump seat" should be able to be unbolted and a new console case bolted in. I found the gun safe for inside, but not the outside console casing. I can't be the only one to be thinking this thought.

 

welcome from so cal

 

Thanks

 

Yeah, you're right about that. No one is trying to get rid of the bench seat. Its the contrary people would love to have your bench seat. It would seem its possible to ditch the middle seat and add a console, you just need to find one at a junk yard or I bet someone around here would give you their console if you gave them your bench. I do miss having my wife sitting close beside me on the backroads.

 

Yes, it seems like when I mentioned this idea to the guys on the TundraCrew FB page. They had been looking for our truck within the last few months and the bench seat was/is/will be sought after. I am being to think of keeping the seat, building a console for our use and I can be content with that as we build it to what we are needing/looking for. I don't really want to get rid of the shifter on the column, it was more for the storage and gun safe. There are places I go where my CCW needs to hangout in the truck.

My other mod for now is to ditch the key and go back to a keyfob, but it isn't as fun as the other.

Welcome from NY.

 

Welcome from Wyoming.

I think somebody was doing a bench to console conversion. I'll see if I can find it.

 

Here's the post about converting that middle seat to a console. https://www.tundras.com/threads/center-console-conversion-just-console-for-now.35528/

 

Thanks for the welcome!! I actually ran across one and Brogan posted another. I even found some dealers that make organizational trays if I home build.
