What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Insert 4 times instead of 3, then call it a day!

I really need to drop mine and inspect, clean up everything around it, and keep eyes peeled for a single 5-way split fork rim. I've literally never taken my tire down yet, at least in the years I've had my truck.

I have a really hard time paying for anything more than a used tire for my spare. Several hops nearby me have tires in the $20-60 range, with mount + balance included, depending on how new and how much tread you want. Beats the hell outta paying $100-200 for a brand new one that's gonna be sketch after a few years of sitting under the truck anyway.

 

Sweet wheelhorse!

 

Damn, dude. I feel bad for you; at 3 inches it probably only works at certain angles. lol




The blade of course.

 

Of course! But I wasn't talking about me or mine, or that 3 would be width, not length

 

I always wait until I need new tires then have them take the best and put it on the spare rim.

Knock on wood I haven't needed to use them since I bought a plug kit.

 

comments like this make the phone forum expierience better. Pretty sure i skimmed right by this. Read the caption saw a trainer and moved on. But indeed badass wheelhorse.

 

1990 520H. I've got the 60" deck and the 44" 2 stage snowblower for it. Got a deal I couldn't pass up from a friend that bought a house with it included.

 

Nice work @oscardog86! Looks great

 

Finally got to replace the brake fluid and clean the black reservoir.

Had to make a adapter so I can use my Motive power bleeder.

Also used 30 nuts to clean the reservoir.

 

I just dumped my OG 0202 last week. The PO had driven on it recently. Nuts right?

got a 2017 Firestone spare steelie right now while I agonize about wheel / tire choices.

 

Obviously 33.

 

Got you it's actually 32

 

What about the nut running the show?

 

only problem with that is I count for more then 1 nut

 

Just had a quick chat with Billy from BFF and he wound up making sliders for me. I hadn’t heard confirmation so I’ve already got my deposit in for Fabzone.

Long story short, anyone looking for first gen regular cab sliders, you might be able to get them quickly. Not sure how well they might fit AC, I assume they would be the same but not sure on that.

I’m super excited to get my bumper and i could probably do the slider pickup at the same time for anyone in SD.

 

And what about his two nuts? Clearly 35 is the correct answer. And now you've commented, it's 36!

 

Got some Pep Boys limiting straps. The directions don’t say where to relocate the shocks….

 

Someone gave me those straps for Christmas one year. I found them useless since they really don't grab that well. You can pull them apart with both hands.

Hopefully mine were just el cheapos.

And another reminder of the PO's neglect of my truck. The brake fluid in in is somewhere between the color of maple syrup and coffee.

 

Coffee here. Fortunately no cream.

I picked up new DOT3 this past weekend and intend to ranger, then follow-up with a proper flush sometime down the road

 

soo much easier on the eyes with a nice dark screen from the radio.

 

Yeah, I'm going to have to flush it all out at some point relatively soon. It can't be doing it's job very well in such a dirty, degraded state. It's a really nice truck but the PO just neglected so many little things. No point in asking why.

 

Mine was pretty bad also that's the reason I had to clean the reservoir. It was black even though there was no fluid inside. Now it's spotless.

 

my fluids nasty.. but thats just because the fluid we use at work is trash...

 

I almost was going to buy a new reservoir but I gave the nut trick a shot and it worked.

 

Really? Mine has changed to a a greenish tint. Someone told me its from the grease in the master cylinder.

 

A little nut goes a long way!

 

It's enough to get you in trouble

 

Nice. What are you doing tomorrow?
