What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Lowered the two outer pods and then mounted the center two. We won't get into how I got the one in with the trans cooler. Nothing like a little modifying to make something fit.

 

Thou shalt not pass.




Mesh on the inside as backup. If you didn't notice, I wasn't too concerned about doing a pretty caulk job. It won't be seen.

 

What is the piece with the tape around it? Are you just putting it up behind the door or what? Just trying to get a better understanding.

 

Just to hold it in place while I reinstall the vent piece.

 

Rethreaded the screws in the bed for the factory mini-unistrut, previous owner had removed the two side rails and left them open to the new england elements for the last 3 years. after a little cleanup the factory bolts went right in
Got started mounting the LOMAX bed cover that I kept from my GMC Sierra. It isn't quite the right size but is close enough that a few tweaks with the sawzall and a drill will have it mounting like it should.

 

Bought the truck a new camper. It’s a Keystone bullet 273BHSWE. Kids are getting bigger so the room is much needed.

 

Congrats! Looks awesome

 

Congratulations, looks really nice.

 

Congrats on the camper, but is that a Ram I see in the garage?!?

 

That’s my father in laws. He’s letting me park the camper at his place since I don’t have the room. Say what you want but that ram 3500 is badass haha.

 

Traded in my Tacoma a few years ago for my Tundra in hopes for a future camper toy hauler. Today was the day, the RTT was good but go tired of the heat and community showers at the track. 2019 Wolf Pup toy hauler, the Tundra has a little buddy!!!

 

Drove it 1-1/2 hours to go do a BSM install on another TRD Pro.

Unfortunately, ran into a few issues and need to do some more troubleshooting this week.

 

Very nice looking rig brother

 

I got a couple those BSM sensors if you need them

 

Nice camper.

 

You'll figure it out.

 

Currently chasing an electrical draw that’s eating my battery. No issues pre Baja lol. I hate chasing electrical issues.

 

My plow was draining the battery overnight... the truck has a lot of systems that pull power for about 15 minutes after shutdown, apparently the dealer had brought it to the plow installer and they couldn't figure it out because they didn't wait for the truck to fully shut down before testing idle draw.

When I was searching for the idle draw on my Sierra I hooked on a clamp meter and just started yanking fuses until it stopped
Yay electrical fun, good luck

 

Cut some vinyl

 

AKKON LED tail lights- plug and play, resistors incl





OE tails developed condensation, and I discovered why... Had to have been done by the body shop that "fixed" it two years ago.



Yes, that is a chunk of ice inside the lens!!

 

One thing at a time. Lol. Ran out of time today before coming to work. Working on adding my Diode 42 light bar. So tackling the wire first. Plan on adding the led push button in my empty slot as long as it don’t give me a problem with the wiring connection. No problem when I did my Tacoma and 4Runner years ago.

 

I don’t want to say that I’m lazy or anything… but well, I suppose there’s no way around it! About 7 years ago I bought som spyder headlights from another member and finally got around to installing them. I knew they aren’t known for being top notch or anything, but thought I’d pop them in as a temporary until I do oem retrofits. I also bought vled v3 running lights in 2016 and morimoto hids for the spiders. Hell, after this long I wasn’t even sure any of it would work!

not bad for what it cost. But it does look like the drivers side isn’t exactly straight. Like it needs to be rotated. Anyone know if this can even be done with spyders?

All in all, it’s a whole lot better than the stock lights. Especially since mine were yellowing and fogged.

they still need to be adjusted, but it was cold and late yesterday

 

Finally installed the long box storage that has been in my garage since May. Glad to have the extra secure storage.

 

Drove my truck 2300 miles for 34 hours straight to our new home in Tennessee.

 

Finished attaching the LOMAX bed cover from my Sierra. Only needed a couple tweaks.

 

Put on bumpershells to cover the chrome. A bit fiddly to install but not hard. It's interesting that the bumpershells come with a sticker with the name of the person who made them.

The textured black TPO is a great match for the stock black parts of the front and rear bumper. I think I prefer it over color matched on my MGM Tundra, plus it's cheaper.

I also put on blackout badge covers (00016-34890). Expensive, but I didn't want to buy the cheaper versions because if they didn't cover it well, it would be irritating. Seems to be on there very solidly.

Now I'm debating on whether I should leave the TSS Offroad sticker on the bedside. I hated it when I still had all the chrome all over everywhere, but now that the truck is thoroughly dechromed, I kind of don't mind the TSS Offroad sticker.

 

Guess I got a wild hair up my ass…
This has been sitting in my room since 2019
I’m going to order a replacement for the piece i chopped to mount this just in case I want to put it back to stock.

 

Added the Victory molle panel to the pax side of the console. Piece o'cake.

 

After I got the storage install complete I went ahead and washed the truck for the first time since around July!

 

Nothing other than notice I’ve had my truck a year today.


And only put 4,500 miles on it.
