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

Yeah, it's definitely the same spring TRQ was using, not the lower.

It also appears to be a really piss-poor design, and a wild diversion from the OEM part that works perfectly.

I hate aftermarket parts.

 

It's a Savior Senior Battery Tray. I think they are discontinued now. I'm using a 94R AGM which is shorter than a stock 24/27F. That said, I'm building a spacer and going back to the factory style hold down (I've got one of Coop's TRD brackets) and ditching this tray.

 

Yikes, that’s one dirty throttle body.

That was satisfying to clean.

 

Did a "stuck recovery" today. Used the Tundra (technically my friend used it as he was driving) to pull a zero turn out of the mud. Had to block traffic in both directions to pull that off.

Tundra had to back over a rather steep grass embankment........I wish I had this on video but my wife didn't go and everyone was too busy either with the recovery or blocking traffic to do any recording. Tundra came through!

 

Finally took a drive at night with the updated higher output version of the mini projectors. Oh yeah you can definitely tell the difference. It’s brighter, but where the 160w version shines is at the end of the beam which is where I felt the original style projectors were weak. High beam is still nothing to write home about, but if yours fail these are worth the upgrade.

Pic is taken through 50% windshield tint as well.

 

Looks good, which ones are those, again? I’m assuming mine are gonna be burnt up soon. Average life out of the no-fan model I have seems to be about 18-36mos on average.

These went through customs so order them in advance. For whatever reason mine don’t burn out in pairs so it’s nice to have a backup. These wound up having the same style reflector so I doubt they’ll last longer.

 

The eagle on the bulb shown on the product box looks strangely like the Dorman logo….
