What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Had Bilstein 5100s installed today. Install guy said I might need UCAs as well. Never heard of that with just the 5100s.

 

Finally got around to de-chroming. Went the cheapo route for now with plastidip. The wheels and bumpers turned out great, the surround and bulge weren’t quite as glossy as I hoped with the glossifier. Not sure if it was because those pieces are plastic. May eventually got some bumpershellz for that down the road.

 

With 35s on stock gears I was 5 off at cruising speed. With 37s and 5.29s I'm about 8-10 mph off at cruising speed.

 

The speedometer calibrator adjusts for change in tire size and/or gears.

 

Yes, but sometimes you gotta play with the numbers to get the more accurate reading.

 

Agree.
Stock speedometer was always off 1-2mph. The calibrator gets it back to the same 1-2mph off.

 

How’s this bumper holding up? Rust? And is it a thick gauge steel? Thinking about changing my front bumper. Thanks

 

been riding around with it for about a week and loving it... very happy to not drop all that money on the Rago setup

thanks @texasrho83 !!!

 

Yeah man I love mine too. The Galaxy Series phones are monstrous and the holder doesn't even let mine shake.

 

Turbomac HD [classic] Bronze
5×150 ETO I BS
4.75" / 17×8.5 /

Tires are 285/75/r17

Thanks!

 

I like the Tackform wireless charging holder but I don't know if my Galaxy will fit with the Otterbox case.

 

started my truck after sitting outside for a month. It didn't hesitate. I think part of the reason is the cascadia4x4's 95watt hood solar system.

 

I don't know how you handle these phones in an Otterbox case. You must have a belt clip lol

 

I have the S22 Ultra and I prefer not to break it lol.

 

S23 and I've gotta Rhinoshield which is super low profile and way easier to handle

 

No issues at all. It’s about the same thickness at the rear rough country bumper I have…it’s just a modular design rather than one solid piece. I like it so much better than the factory chrome I had.

 

I have the S21 in the Otterbox Commuter case and the OffRoam holds it nice and tight with no problem at all, still has room to go wider also, so the defender would be no issue at all, in the picture i have my phone in and that's pulled all the way open... not sure how wide the tackform goes

 

I really feel for you people in Texas. Hot normally, but I see in the news it's brutal this year!.I'm so happy to live in the temperate Pacific North west.

 

I installed the BlackVue

$350 BlackVue DR900X-2CH with 256GB microSD Card | 4K UHD Cloud Dashcam | Built-in Wi-Fi, GPS, Parking Mode Voltage Monitor | LTE via Optional CM100 LTE Module

DR900X-2CH dashcam, with this Stem Mount and 1" Custom Folded Bracket for the rear camera, and used these

$12 Nilight - 50040R 12V Car Add-a-Circuit Fuse Adapter with Standard and Mini TAP Profile TAP Blade Fuse for Cars Trucks Boats, 10 Pack Fuse Holder-3 types, 2 Years Warranty,Blue, Red, Black

Fuse Adapters to tie into kick panel fuse box.
Also, followed this install video for general guidance (especially around what specific fuses to tie into). Took about 3hrs in total for first timer. I'm happy. Looks factory.

 

With the larger 9 + inch head units, does using that vent present any issues?

 

The Tackform is 3.5 inches.

Picked it up from the alignment shop today, I was only 1.5 degrees out on the camber after setting the SPCs and lower cams by eye…. No laser needed lol. Snapped some pics of the new look in the fresh cut hay patch on the way home.




now to order flares and a rear bumper.

 

Negatory. My Pioneer is 10" and no problemo.

 

Ain't nuffin' for a good AC.

 

On the border of Idaho and Washington state and it's going to be 97 degrees on Sunday.

My 1794 came from Texas so it has heavy window tint and even the windshield is tinted. Will appreciate it more this weekend.

 

We'll get a winter from Hell to balance it all out...I love being cold!!

 

It’s not as bad as they make it out to be. It sucks, but it’s not out of the norm.

 

New shoes installed today…

 

What size on the WPs?

 

I wanted to go a little bigger but was just concerned about rub and didn’t want to mess with correcting that issue. I did a poll on FB of my choices and Falkens won out by a mile. I had intentions on getting the Toyos, the more research I did the ratings were pretty even with slight advantage to the Falkens. Then when I learned that the WP’s had a reinforced sidewall, it was really noticeable when I looked at both sets at discount tire before making my decision, the Toyo sidewall was really soft. The Falken’s also had a more aggressive looking tread which I preferred so I went with them.
