    Hi folks,

    I searched but didn't see any posts (maybe used the wrong search terms).

    I'm not familiar with the 2nd Gen Tundras, but I have a 2014 and noticed leaves and other debris pile up behind the rubber boot at the bottom of the front hinge side door jams. This would be at the bottom of the front fender. Pull back that boot and check before you have premature rust issues due to debris sitting in there.

    On mine, I noticed the driver's side collects crap more than the passenger's side.
    Sorry I don't have any pics.

    Yeah and I went out and checked my truck and had a bunch of leaves in just the driver side. Felt good to get them out of there. Thanks again
