What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

I want to say I paid less than this, on sale, but it was still expensive. It works great though, simple to assemble and use. Takes no more than a few minutes to take a spring off or put it on, very happy with it. I think the manufacturer recommends the next step up, SK-3500 I believe, but another member posted a picture of this model being used on Tundra spring/shocks and they said it worked fine so I decided to get the same one. I figured with rebuilding my shocks and planning to put Fox shocks on my wife's TrailBoss next year that I would get my use out of it.

 

Looks like air horns.

 

And that was not on my bingo card, at all. Makes sense now that you call that out. Thank you!

 

I get mine done by Krown as well, no issues so far with the holes they drilled, just had mine resprayed a couple weeks ago.

 

You're welcome. I'm no pro at rebuilding shocks but if you need any help when it comes down to doing it let me know, I'll gladly help where I can.

 

Train horns

 

No Bracket? Just bolted it to the center support and added a brace?

 

Those guys who answered the two of you are correct. Train horns.

That is right. The top hole in the center brace is existing. I drilled the bottom hole to match up with the existing hole in the cooler. Very solid!

 

Sure. Took my Bushwhacker driver's side front flare off a couple of weeks ago, to replace the gasket. The flare was put on by DSI before I bought the truck new, 8 years ago. Washed the dirt off before I put the flare back on, and the paint was good as new. YMOV.

 

The replacement procedure is very easy and straightforward.
Open the tailgate and remove the two torque screws holding the taillight assembly in place.
Pull straight out to the side of the truck body to unclip the forward part of the taillight. I simply dangled the taillight while I did the rest.
Using a small thin straight screwdriver, pretty the clip off the lower ball, then the upper ball. Pull the strut out and discard.
Simply push the LOWER section onto the lower ball.
With your right hand raise the tailgate and guide the strut onto the upper ball.
To reinstall the taillight, align the pins on the side and push them in until they click. Reinstall the screws by the tailgate.
Now test.

 

I love mine.

 

OEM LED head lights and fog lights.
Headlights were easy peasy. Fog lights and stalk were not fun to do.

 

Ty ty order up with the metal bushing upgrade as well once it arrives I’ll get it swapped in.

 

Can you make yours do this haha!
This would make my day to hear this while stuck in a traffic jam.

Is the magnet bar attached, or just magnetized to the truck bed over the bed liner?

 

Magnetized over the bed liner and pretty strong actually, so it should hold pretty good. But time will tell. Trial and error, right?

 

Currently in process of installing a G Screen on my Genisis Offroad Dual Battery System.
Have the cable run from Dual batteries to where the G Screen will be mounted.
Now am waiting on the 3 D Printed mount. I am expecting it to be delivered on Thursday.
Then I will install it in my 2016 SR5 Tundra.
Will post pictures.

 

...And the Redline MT-LV actually lists that it is a direct replacement for the Toyota Golden Child oil.

 

Few big deliveries this week coming. 4.5 king rear bypasses tomorrow, big fuel injectors also tomorrow, billet fuel rails friday. Kitchen pics to come

 

Save yourself a lot of money and get the mirrors from Rock Auto. I got a drivers side for $80 shipped and the quality is just about as good as stock.

 

Appreciate it.

 

Forgot to mention I bought the TYC brand

 

Finally installed the LC brushless blower motor. Huge improvement over the stock motor. It's almost too much with the vents blowing in my face at full power.

 

Looks good!

 

I wonder how well that would work under the hood! Might be too many moving parts though

 

Here's what you need under the hood

 

Great idea! Now why didn’t I think of that? Do you have it wired so it turns automatically when the hood is open?
