What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Installed my Teton gear selector. https://www.tundralifestyle.com/pro...Wn0y7c_L_wlpDqdz0BYRPrtGWztKzsCRoCIc4QAvD_BwE
Love it. Feels great and solid.

 

Finally got the switch relocated to the proper location. The cable i originally bought from accessorides.com was short so had to move to the right side of the steering wheel. Purchased the 47' from 12volt.solutions and was able to reach the desired location by the shifter. Thanks to @RainMan_PNW for the guidance and fast delivery of the 3-way cover that is great quality and super easy to install with his template. This is a great mod that leaves room for future expansions.

 

I use Redline MT-LV for the transfer case. Most auto parts stores carry it in stock. I stock up when they have a sale. For diffs it doesn't really matter what brand as long as you change it on time.

 

I have the Victory 4x4 over the cab and Rhino Rack over the canopy.

 

I bought that cable from accessorides too ... man I hope it's long enough but your install looks awesome

 

Thank you Sir!

 

Yes. That's the part.

Thank you! I'll watch the video at YouTube University. I appreciate the link.

 

It’s an easy change, just pull the door card off, roll the window all the way up (if you had it down) and it’s two 10mm bolts on the door side, after it’s unbolted from the door and can you just pull it out, super easy

 

Man, we need to be able to pin stuff on this site.

 

Definitely hard to keep track of shit sometimes... Couple that with how fast threads get 'cross-homogenized' w/various opinions and part#s, it quickly get a bit convoluted and confusing at best. Oftentimes, the wrong #s get thrown out there throughout the discussions which leads to folks getting the wrong part#s due to bad intel... HVAC blower motor is a good example of this. I think there were 4 or 5 part#s floating around in that one

I ended starting a spreadsheet and a word doc to log things that this when they come up so I can find them easily.

This list in particular was put out there by @AZTundra (I believe). Saved me a bunch of time and the headache of looking everything up myself, plus the #s were all spot on, so no reason not to share w/others!!!

 

My accesorides cable is just long enough.

 

Thank you! How difficult is peeling back the watershed plastic without destroying it or getting three black butyl tape on everything?

 

Super easy, go slow and don’t try and do a big section, ease it section by section off the tape/glue and it’ll come; worst case if the plastic rips just get some gorilla tape or duct tape and tape the front and back

since it is colder out now, maybe applying heat with a heat gun or hair dryer would also help (edit x2: actually that theoretically would make it stickier so maybe don’t)

 

Thank you very much. It sounds like I have enough skill to do this task.

 

I'm trying to find a post with the part numbers for the trans cooler would like to make that next upgrade. TIA

This is for the DIY version. Otherwise, GCS is your source for a complete kit.

 

I just got the lumpiest, 120lb box from FA...brake rotors, pads, et Al...I already see peanuts shooting out...

 

WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!

 

I just ordered one. I used promo code bronco6g and got a good discount

 

You too?! lol corner part you can’t see was shredded on mine, to my surprise everything was still in there.

 

Do you have to do anything special to get the code to work? It no workie for me.

 

I did a quick check on a random shifter and it worked.

 

I have 14 quarts of transmission fluid that I'm waiting on from them.

 

Got some cool looking hard cupholder inserts

 

Thank you! That was a very useful video! I guess I don't need to mess with the watershed sheet. Nice!

 

Where
Did u find these i have all emblems done like this except the 5.7 , i was told he cant cut those stickers anymore

 

Following this up.

Found the culprit - bad exhaust gasket. I have stainless works headers into spd performance cat back. Sound is from rear of truck. Just reached out to spd for new gaskets. Finally. Been chasing it for a month.

Also did an oil change today. Went from 5w-30 to 0w-20 again, both pennzoil ultra platinum. First time using 5w-30 and will be sending the sample to Blackstone for analysis.

 

We shall await your Blackstone results with eager anticipation

SPD doesn’t use just generic exhaust gaskets?

 

Should’ve asked me… standard gasket
