What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Nice looking rig!

 

Sent you an email with the parts information for this and the secondary intake relocations.

 

Well…got the repair estimate back. New bed, new frame. $26k in repair costs. Body shop said it’ll be 6-8 months to repair. Now I’m just waiting to hear back from insurance to see if they total it or not. This really sucks.

 

that's a bummer dude. hopefully it works out for you in the end, though.

 

Dang man. That sucks. Good luck.

 

Ugh. Brutal man. Sorry for the misfortune, hopefully you will be taken care of.

 

Dropped my truck off Monday night at my dealership. Slip and Brake lights were on, on the dash. The Brake Controller Error message in the middle. Apparently a squirrel got into my wires. On top of that I have a the cam tower leak as well.
State farm approved the claim for the re-wire ($9,346.61)
Waiting on Warranty to confirm/approve the leak (dealership estimate $2,400 roughly)
Should have the truck back by 3/17

Too make things worse, rental i was given is a ram 1500 slt with the v6 - the thing is dreadful

 

Hope so too. Just waiting on the official word from insurance.

Appreciate it!

Yeah I hope so to. This is my first rodeo dealing with an accident of this magnitude.

 

That can't be right. I'm constantly told how much better the Ram rides, how it has plenty of power, quality components, etc.

 

Yes you have to remove the pieces from the door panel, wrap it and then re-glue it all back together.

 

Isnt that more than 50% of the value? Surprised they didn't total it.

 

I have the same setup, Id skip the rear block for lift. Shackles would be better, and if you do any towing/hauling, RAS would be even better and give about an inch of lift.

 

Put my boot on...

In Park
In Drive

 

Got a shipping confirmation from @TundraTex . My VSM is inbound. Plan is to install that, new switch panel and ports, as well as plasti-dip the cup holder trim this coming weekend.

 

I reached a mileage milestone.

 

after researching viper cut fenders here is my mounting points as no one really shared how to properly secure the fenders, plastic trim while keeping the factory look/integrity.

1. use (3) factory mounting points, 1 push pin on the frame near the coil over revisor, 2 outer fender clips had to cut out center pc and remount to make room for shorter fender length).
2. drilled holes on fog lamp bracket and lower plastic liner for zip ties to pass through ( drilled hole on plastic to be close to where the brackets are for shorter zip tie lengths)
3. secure zip tie to plastic liner and metal fog lamp brackets at 3 points equal distance for better stability while driving.
4. 6 mounting point with zero play/flex and still keeping factory look and integrity

 

I like it! Link?

Still think Gen 2.5 looks better....

 

Secondary intake pump relocation complete. Thx again to @831Tun for two parts. I managed to piece this kit together and save a few bucks over the SDHQ units.

 

Damn, I cannot believe that. So very sorry you have to go through this.

 

Looks good!
Parts breakdown on where to acquire them?

 

Looks like 2 3-4’ sections of -10 line along with two valve cover breathers from the import section at o’reilly’s and then the adapters to thread into the vacuum pumps.
