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

Forgot to post my other Black Friday Tundra purchase.



4 27w 4” pods and a 300w 20” light bar for 35 smackeroos.

I’m seriously debating a rigid slim 30” for the bumper and throwing some ditch lights on. The new oem headlights are bright. But out in the country roads all the light I can get will help with deer. Already almost creamed 3 with this truck.

 

Time for a big bumper

 

Exactly my plans for this. I have two 6” pods in the grill guard already, so I plan to put the 20” bar up front, a couple 4” pods in the rear for combo reverse/rear lights, something in the topper, and maybe something on the sides.

you can never have too much lighting.

 

Closing time at the bar might disagree with you... ;-)

 

I don’t drink, so no worries there.

 

I would like to. But that’ll be later on. I’ll probably fab one up. For now the factory steel bumper works fine and doesn’t kill the gas mileage.

 

These came today.

 

Maybe it’s cause of all your hand modeling but all I saw when you posted these was you flipping us off in the first pic. Lol

 

Cleaned up my new battery install. Swapped out the oem tie down and picked up some knobs just because..

 

finally finished my fuse panel and switch panel. First time I've made this fuse panel.

 

Very similar to what I wanna do. Nothing like having power right where you need it.

 

I keep looking at ssvec Eaton fuse boxes. Nice and compact. Still trying to figure out how I’m going to mount the sequoia center console so I can have switches in my tundra. Brackets don’t line up at all. Even though the front floor pan is the same part# as the sequoia vs reg cab tundra.

 

Nothing like a car/truck manufacturer to make changes without telling anyone haha.

 

Well I see the holes under the truck. I’m just wondering what covers them up top. It might just be the asphalt coating with a sticker under it.

 

That actually makes a lot of sense. Probably easier to have a mounting fixture than trim some of the insulation adhesive stuff different on some models.

 

I’m going to poke around next time I have it at work: hopefully get it figured out. Then just figure out he ac duct at driver side of the floor

 

Replaced the OTHER inner tierod end because after I did the first one and took it to get aligned the shop told me the other one that I thought was good, actually wasn't.

 

I believe that’s one of the things you should replace in pairs anyways. Like front or rear brake parts. Plus it’s only another $30-50 to ensure that both are up to snuff since one or both will still require an alignment after you’re done.

 

To be fair, one side had a torn boot so I figured it was the only one worn out...which it was....its just that the other side was also worn, although only about a tenth as much.

 

Knocked out the TPMS bypass, I made it 24 hours with that light on and I couldn’t take it anymore. If we got real time pressure data, I’d keep them, but for a light? I can find better things to do with $200 and check my own pressure.

 

Amen

 

Fog lights went in today. Replaced the factory headlight stalk and worked perfectly with some after market fogs. I’ll probably upgrade to oem when I find the right deal. Also performing the anytime fog mod tonight or tomorrow. Looks way better!

 

Ok, I may get sent to the corner for time out but why do some members have a line thru their name

 

Wow really?


I wondered the same thing too actually lol. Maybe they’re in timeout?

 

I hope not, A------- is my go to guy for brake explanations

 

Temporary time out.

 

Haha I thought it was “backing the brown” or something

 

Wondering, as well. And whats with the goofy thick glasses guy everyone uses as their profile pic.

 

Where does everyone’s battery gauge sit when at a stop light? I don’t have a chance to measure it. Just trying to see if my alt is weak
