Tundras to Sedona - 2025

I had a feeling everything was going too smooth.

i think my well pump just shit the bed. & its 250’ down a 9” hole. If they cant get it done this week, i dont know what i’m gonna do. My garden is gonna need water.

false alarm! Just a popped capacitor. I knew i had more karma saved up.

Damn dude, first my radiator, now your well pump. Wtf is going on

 

I have not... hopefully next year though!!!

 

Parts available -

About to throw these away so if anyone wants them I can bring them to the event -

One OEM tailpipe

OEM front Billy 4600 TRD coilovers - these have about 35k miles on them and have been sitting 6 years.

front sway bar.

Items are headed to the dump in 48 hours unless someone wants them.

these are all off a 2.5 gen Tundra.

 

You know there's a "Pay it Forward" thread, right?

 

I'm targeting the T2S market because I'm not getting every tom dick and harry a shipping quote to New Hampshire.

And we all know @AT x AT will take it.

 

In that case - I've got a BD Fog Light bracket set with the front bumper trim that I'll let go for cheap (but not quite free) if someone wants me to drag them to AZ...

No that is Tundras 2 Sedona Market place

 

Trading beers - we can trade parts too. I don't want to know what else gets traded in First Gen Land and no it doesn't matter how many times @bmf4069 ran it through the dishwasher.

 

If we're doing this, I've got a rear airbag kit with daystar cradles collecting dust here

 

Shit that's a good deal and I don't even own a second gen.

 

Whoo hoo, got a nice shirt. Too bad my stickers are stuck in shipping limbo.

 

I was gonna bring a half eaten nugget and some French fries I found under the seat. Oh, and an empty ultra I found under the couch.

 

Holy shit, one week til I hit the road for T2S.
Truck still needs a radiator and AALs.
Fuuuck

 

I still haven't replaced my UCAs or rear wheel bearings. Or the rear brakes. And my registration is expired. And it's dirty.

 

At least one of those sounds like a real problem.

 

What UCAs did you get to replace the freedumbs?

I rocked bad wheel bearings for a long time.
Like a couple years.
I drove to Merus and back without a current registration. I figure once we hit NM, it doesn't matter.

 

SPCs. I wanna do that and get it realigned with more camber, but I'm gonna rub way worse. I need to loose the front spacers I guess. I'm not worried about the registration. The brakes should be easy now that I have discs. They 100% need to be replaced.

 

I have 1 header almost installed. Had to have some stuff made to un-fuck my motor mounts before the driver side can be installed, supposed to arrive on the 21st.

 

You got this

 

@TRDFerguson said I could use a door hinge and hockey puck as a motor mount. Maybe you could do the same!

 

That sounds like something I would say

 

Definitely worth playing with it, with and without the spacers, to see if you rub frame on full lock or not, or if you rub the UCA. But I think what you're going to find is trimming the pinch weld is the money.
Also if you're going to get it aligned anyways, you could always adjust your coilovers. I can't remember if you and @JakeJake upgraded your leaf packs when y'all did the Sequoia axle. I can't wait to see that bad boy articulate. I'm so jealous.

 

New radiator is in. Truck seems happy. Drove her to work tonight, for a shake down. It's always a weird feeling going from the 03 to the 06. Just takes a little getting used to.

 

Kevin stopped by yesterday, he offered to help but has a small (not really) truck to-do list also. His giant bear paw hands are a disqualifier for installing Tundra headers anyways.
