What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

I paid a shop in Mesa to do it.

 

I decided to hit some trails and slipped into a rut. Truck was totally high centered with no wheels touching. Super impressed with the warn winch, pulled me out no problem.

 

Nice. Glad you got out, but really hoping you've relocated your rear diff breather.

 

Yeah, rear diff breather is in the tail light, front is near the top of the engine bay. One of the first things I did, lots of water down her in FL.

 

Good deal. I never would have known about it without this forum, and it's part of my next upgrade. I have nowhere near your water level, but I'm snagging the diff breather kit along with some beefy ABS sensor guards. Thanks to @14burrito for costing me money!

 

Any pictures of the front mod?

 

Same. Just read up on it and ordered a relo kit. Also ordered rock sliders yesterday.

 

Got my Jerry Cans secured!
Bent up some 3/4 flat bar stock and attached to the rear most m6 rail mount point. I haven't decided if I want or need the rail...yet...lol. ordered some m6 thumb screws from Amazon for easy on/off.
Even ended up getting them close enough to the tailgate that it doesn't block too much of my bed light kit.
Bonus, with the central vertical mount of 3/4 stick they will also mount against the cab at the front rail mount points with no modification.

 

Very nice. Gives me ideas of what I can do to mount my spare that won't fit underneath the way I would like. I'll probably go for a mount at the front of the bed vertically and something similar to what you used for your cherry cans would be ideal. I could use a chain and a padlock to keep it secure , and the mount would be stout enough. I really don't want to drill holes in my truck.

 

All looks beautiful but I Really love your front bumper

 

I hear ya. I really didnt want anything permanent or to have studs poking up in the bed. Seems like the rail mount points are pretty secure.

 

The front is stock. They are located in the engine bay by the brake booster, pretty high up. I do plan on adding the kit from SDHQ in the future.

 

Thought you did something different.

 

ProClip installed (this thing is awesome), along with some new shoes. 275/70r18 Ridge Grapplers.

 

Nice! Thanks

 

Where can I find that? That would benefit me so much .

You are a gentleman and a scholar

 

Lol! It's also currently in my Amazon cart.

 

Oiled my clean TRD air filter

 

Let there be light!

I finally devised a simple, useful way to have a glove box light. It is made of mostly OEM and VLED parts. It works on an always hot pin switch. I am mostly satisfied but am thinking I may have to go with one more LED in the left corner...

I will finish my write up for tomorrow or so for those that may be interested...

You can also install Rivnuts into the 6 holes already in the bed just under the rail mounting points that will accept much bigger bolts and still keep it all nice and flush.
I had some 5/16" laying around and installed them to hold the shelves that I made for my bed. They are a much better height for what I needed and the bolts are much stronger than the 6mm rail mount bolt.

I don't have a good pic of these right now but I will get one when I can but these 6 bolts and gravity are what holds these shelves in place.
You can see the rearmost ones on each side here.
OK here are a few

 

Oh yeah bring on the write up hermano, I see a LOT of people following your guide on this mod! Thanks for this awesome contribution!!!

 

Pretty sure I smell a sticky thread if you do a write up on this. It's a pretty sought after mod.

 

Great job Matt!

 

Agreed. This would be fantastic. Hell, if you sold the parts and instructions I'd STILL pay for it.

 

Great job On the glove box light.

What I did last night was install ESP understating storage. Incase anyone wondering what the wires look like on 2020 here is a picture of location. I was very careful and removed small sections at a time. It was hot wife was shaking her head for me cutting on a brand new truck.

 

New front and rear bumper. Built way more stronger with more contact points and a bit bigger tubing than the previous bumpers. Oh and added another pair of XL80's lol.

 

Got my truck bed cover installed birthday present from the wife
