What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Added Rago bed stiffeners today. I got these last black friday but had put it off because I needed to remove my Decked drawers to install em—which was a pain. The install was super smooth and took me a few hours..but I took the time to clean underneath/get rid of my bedmat.


5 holes drilled on each side


and my helper who didnt do too much helping

 

Installed the helmholtz resonator for my 10in Dirty Deeds system after 8 months of driving without it. Huge difference in cabin noise/drone.

 

Thanks guys!
Gives some perspective.

 

About to do the same thing.
I just finished painting mine with SEM paint after adding some holes for straps and such.

 

Built a new box for my subwoofer today. It came with a tiny 1/2” mdf box that sounded ok, but the new one definitely kicks out a ton more output. Figured out the measurements using a ton of pics and the dang thing fits first try. Used 3/4” mdf and ported the box. Just threw a quick spray paint job on it till I get some carpet.

 

Man that woulda been a good idea!

 

Took off my Pitbull Rockers


Since I can't get them anymore, I replaced with same size Toyo Open Country MTs. Here is the day I mounted. I proceeded to immediately put them to good use to see if I like them, so far so good, puppy agrees too.



Since I've been doing a ton of this lately I haven't been posting and the truck has looked like shit.





So after all the firewood and toy hauling, hauling the puppy monster around, a trip to Lake George, and a solid month or 2 of neglect looking like shit both inside and out from doing truck shit.....


I figured since the truck performed flawlessly and took care of me doing all that I asked of it and more, the time came for me to return the favor and get it back to showroom condition.




Over 70k miles, definitely not all easy, I still love this damn truck like the 1st day I got it.

 

Added at least 10HP to the truck tonight Repping the old school Baja colors.

 

Still looks like a goshdamn WARWAGON! I love your truck, man.

 

Haha tnx Adam, your name change keeps getting me.

 

Credit where it's due. You make MGM look good. The name gets me, too!

 

Lol ty sir. I must admit though, the amount of money I've put into this truck it almost has no choice but to look and perform pretty good.

Besides replacing the tires, brakes and rotors, shackles and battery recently I haven't put anymore money into it, simply just enjoying it. Don't get me wrong I always have my eyes open for a deal on my list of wants and will strike if it pops up, however I'm pretty content with the way the truck sits and it wouldn't even bother me if I never bought anything else for it. Knowing myself I will admit that will never happen though.

The factory cargo bed lights just weren’t cutting it with the Swingcase toolboxes.

 

Installed RB20 steps on the new truck today. Liking them so far, but need to spend some more time getting them lined up perfectly. They're super solid though and way heavier duty than I expected. Really impressed.

Still need to install my bedslide in this truck, waiting for the body shop to finish painting my old topper, then I'll swap those and get my awning back on there. The grey topper on the truck is for sale if anyone is in the market. Need to get some new fog lights and hoping to find some new floor mats too.

 

Something about your truck...
it always looks so damn tough.

 

Interested in the grey canopy, where are you located?

 

Im in Colorado. Unless you’re craving a road trip, probably a little far for you

 

looks good, hole looks clean. I eyeballed a 1 inch oval mine and used about three cutoff wheels on a Dremel tool

it turned out though

 

Where are you located

 

Two posts above yours. He's in Colorado.

And here are a few extra pictures for you to better idea of what they look like.

The bottom one is from the dealership a few days before I purchased it.

 

Chris make a trip to NJ with the topper lol, it's an idea I've been kicking around, I think I still love my diamondback too much still, but also like the idea of having the extra height. I'll even give you a brand new set of bedslide mini kix boxes I have sitting in my garage. Good luck with your sale, you guys out in like Colorado and California seem to always be selling good stuff, NJ ehhhh not to much.

 

Lol the gas for the trip would cost more than the topper. I used to not be a huge fan of toppers but now with dogs and kids and stuff, they’re just super functional. The bed slide is a game changer with them so that I’m not constantly crawling up in the bed. I also like the windoors just to be able to reach in and grab stuff

 

Those look really nice

 

Next project dual batteries !!!

 

Installed some ARK front wheel well splash guards. Much thicker than my beat up OEM ones! Now I need to clean up the rest of the plastic in my wheel wells.

 

they are oem Toyota caps!

 

Do the bed stiffeners make a difference?

 

Compressor mount and IR ditch lights and brackets. Will be doing some night vision driving soon.
