What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

I will be running mine year round. I live on the east coast of Canada. 15 feet of snow in the winter depending where exactly you live on this island. So it needs to be a good AT.

 

I was gonna go with the Baja Boss A/T's as well, but 35's were too heavy at 75 lbs a piece.

 

I have a 17 inch rim so going with a 285/75/17 or 295/70/17. haven't really decided yet. Still waiting for my lift/level to show up.

 

And yours as well.
Badass truck too . I was gonna do another Pro, but didn't care much for the moonroof or the pleather seats. So I just did Pro headlights, Pro grille, and Pro dual exhaust....lol. May do Katskinz in the near future though.

 

yea i guess they are prolly 10-15 lbs heavier per tire....

 

o you mean the moonroof that i havent opened since i test drove it? lol The leather is good with me for now cuz its easy to clean. I'll end up getting another truck before i change out seats lol.

 

Ordered the Tail gate lock & Bed Step from McGeorge Toyota. They had a 10% off sale and free shipping. Both parts arrive tomorrow!

 

Installed a new Mountain Hatch tailgate panel. Very easy installation, product seems solid.

Haven't used it yet. I like how the bolts are recessed into the panel.

EDIT: It does significantly increase the weight of the tailgate. When I installed a similar product on my Tacoma it replaced the factory panel instead of just adding to it.

 

Step 1 to adding bed tie downs d-Rings.

Need to get some rustoleum to paint these. Then to notch the washers...

 

Looks good. I think I would have them powder coated because the paint will wear off and scratch easier. The powder coating will last a lot longer.
JMO.

 

Definitely agree with the pc! It would make it look a ton nicer.

 

Probably cost $20.

 

Planning to order a set of these and attach them at the OEM bed rail attachment points, rather than to the bottom of the bed, to add more tie down points with minimal cost. Anyone else do this simple mod? I have the M6-1.0x14mm bolts ready to go.

 

I think it'd be a great addition to your bed rails.

If you use these t-slot nuts, they would be pretty secured to the rails:

OE bed rail placements are a bit high for some of the loads I carry around (i.e. storage box and whatnot), so having the tie downs on the bed help secure it a lot better. Though there are the 4 corners tie down on the bed, but knowing you've got some points on the floor of the bed to tie down is good too.

 

I definitely get the bed-floor mounted tie-downs. I may do this as well. However, I do not have bed rails. Planning to mount these to the bed rail mounting locations around the bed rather than installing OEM bed rails or DIY bed rails

 

Added Bilstein 5100 up front to level her out. Went with the mid adjustment.

Got my 42" Diode Dynamics light bar installed, easiest mod yet. It was a tight squeeze and you definitely want to attach lightbar to brackets before bolting onto bumper bolts. Now to wait till it gets dark to make it daylight again.

 

I never understood how folks don’t get good use out of a sunroof/moonroof.
I literally use mine every day.

Let the sun shine in...

 

@Hightide, I had one on a previous vehicle. I rarely used it when driving but I always cracked it when parked for air circulation. I miss having it for that reason...

@RobertD @Hightide

This is a thread on getting a moonroof installed on a DC. It looks factory and only $1250 according to @Uhhhh.... ... who had it done. Worth it?

 

Thanks man. They're weathertechs. Just ordered directly from their site. Wasn't difficult at all to cut, just need a sharp knife.

 

I need bronze wheels first.

And suspension, and tow mirrors, and.....

I remember seeing that post but I'd trade for Tundra with a moonroof before I had my roof cut. Its a cool idea though.

 

The mods never end but it sure is fun.

 

Installed a Caliraised LED Light Bar. Love that its hidden and not super noticeable. Next up is TRD Skid and Valhallah front/rear plates....

 

Used it!

 

off for a stay-cation and things like this happen. SUPER CLEAR NOW

 

Any cutting or drilling required?

 

None at all. Just use a pry tool to pry plastic piece out.

 

Chrome delete is complete, for now. Still need to get rid of the plasti-dip grill. But no chrome in the meantime...

 

What product did you use? And I love Griot's Garage products!! Big fan of them and CarPro.
