What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

I should install it soon so that I can see if I get increased airflow to the rear AC vents in my Double cab.

 

I did in my crewmax haha I always thought the rear flow as kinda really crappy and it’s improved! I keep little air fresheners on those back vents so I don’t have to see them.

 

Lol. I was wondering if you caught rear AC in a DC or not.

 

That's where I put my air fresheners also!

 

Final touch on an auxbeam.

camera - powers the front camera

DRL - turns on the amber backlight on the fogs

FOG - turns on the SS3 pro amber fog lights from Dynamic Diode.


So, now the question is what do I plug into the open switches??

thinking some good back up lights on the rear bumper, maybe a compressor. What are your ideas??

 

Completed a five tire rotation today and used the opportunity to teach my 14 yr old daughter how to change a tire. Want to have her ready when it comes time for her to drive.

 

Just figured you were referring to the vents under the front seats that feed air to the back. Might be a good place for air fresheners if someone in the back smelly feet?

Amirite?

 

Lol....not even close . I did the rear AC conversion in my DC.

 

Finished up installing the Kenwood DMX1057XR into the truck. Added an HDMI port to the back for an Amazon Fire TV Stick. I ordered the whole package from Crutchfield, and the installation took a few tries, but everything works just fine! Thanks a bunch to the many posts on this site, along with many YouTube videos, for assisting.

 

Nice! Good choice on the new head unit.

the hockey stick gear shift is awesome!

 

I actually have never looked in the back of the DC lol, as much as I think I’d have preferred one because the short bed sucks on the crewmax I never actually been in the back or seen the back of the DC, I assume the center consoles changed up?

 

Oooooo fancy!

 

Looks good.
LGD!

 

Compressor is too much amperage to have the auxbeam turn it on and deliver power, but you could use the auxbeam to trigger a relay which turns the compressor on (some off-road compressors have this built in, others use a circuit board so just see what yours is)

 

Yep. My 14 calls for 7.9 quarts with new filter. I just put 8 in and it gets me right to the full dot.

 

I really need to stop reading this thread; ordered the LC blower for the upgrade (post #500).

 

Welcome to the club

 

Any thoughts between the micro and mid-flaps to catch more splatter being thrown on the side and rockers? I'm running Nitto G3's, but stock size. They throw more stuff than the Michelin's and I was wondering if the micros would be enough or if I need to move up to the mid size.

 

The mid flaps will definitely catch more splatter than the micros will. The micros will only deflect a bit if you're running larger tires that poke out from the fender. I got the micros since I'm running spacers and slightly wider tires than stock. Here's my picture from last week..

So micros will catch a bit of that side splatter but won't deflect anything directly underneath. Haven't tested them yet since it hasn't rained yet plus my truck doesn't see much mud or dirt so micros should be fine for me.

 

I'll just add regarding the splash guards, Ark didn't send me new fasteners so not sure if they want you to reuse what's already on there but I had one of those variety box of fasteners and found different fasteners to work better so you might want to have plenty on stand by.

These are the ones I used..

Actually ordered these since I ran out

 

Good point, you can never have enough 200 - 400 piece sets handy when you need that one fastener.

 

Last Friday, before the rains came, I made a big push to haul off about 3000lbs of oak leaves that have likely been hanging around for 15+ years. Previous owners of the house did not do much yard clean up. I also burned 3 more stumps that I had pulled out this last summer. The Tundra did great in the soft dirt in our front field where I was removing all the leaves.

 

Thanks for the pic. They look like they extend the same distance as the OEMs, which are not stopping the increased splatter from the Nitto's. I might try the mediums when they go on sale.

 

Big boxes man showed up today. Haha can't wait. Ohhh and little box man came too.

 

The stainless and Inconel valves arrived. Confirmed they look like valves lol should get everything to the machine shop soon enough.

 

Got the 3D printed TSS garnish from @Dave8699 installed over the weekend, very happy with how it turned out.

 

Looks good! I have one of the first ones he printed up sitting on my shelf of spare parts. Just waiting to pull the trigger on the newer version pro grille insert. I'm just really liking the look of my older pro grille.

 

What’s this for?

 

My tundra engine being built. Fully forged internals, custom pistons, ported heads, Whipple 3.0 etc.
