What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

It looks so good. How much longer before you get it back?

 

hopefully Tuesday or Wednesday, body shop said the bed liner is scheduled for monday

 

Beautiful Truck!!

 

Looks like they did a great job! Is that the Baja light bar in the bulge or a different one?

 

it’s the NSV light bar, got it on Craigslist for 250, too good a deal to pass up.
I don’t think it’s worth the 1100 plus they ask for it brand new

 

OH, and I put a new battery in. Getting 30 to 40 connect services notifications daily drained the hell out of it. Thought about a AGM but just kept things simple and got a Toyota True start

 

A link would be appreciated since there are so many.
Thanks

 

Don't forget to give us an update on the install and results.

 

What wheels are you running? They look sharp with the Calvary Blue!

 

Does anyone know this part number?

 

Block heater install on the 5.7 is incredibly easy. I had one on my ‘15. They’re a dry heater, not like the older style where you install a freeze plug or tie into a heater hose. The 5.7 has a port on the back of the drivers side cylinder head that you clip the heating element into. Then it’s just routing your power cable.

This time I decided to go with an upgraded power port. On my ‘15, I went with this flush mount power port. It was nice, I installed it in the lower plastic portion of the front bumper. The only problem was after a few years I had issues with corrosion on the terminals, so I had to replace it.

The new one is a hardwired port so I’ll have to cut and wire them to the back of the plug port, but it’s a waterproof sealed connection so hopefully it’ll last longer. I’m just not sure where I’m going to put it on the truck yet.

Thanks man, I love the wheels. They are relations race wheels RR7-H. Gun metal with black rings.

 

Any ideas from anyone to place a mounting plate for a switch pannel under the hood of a 2018 tundra other than on top of the fuse box but in that general area?

New wheels and tires today, 20s to 18s. Nokian nAT Outpost 295/70/18.

 

Man that truck looks great!!!

 

Those look like my summer rims, are yours legit or some fine chineseum knockoffs like mine?? Truck looks great.

 

PC does the same. I've sold a few friends on getting them, after a quick tool around the block in mine.

 

A slotted strut as a battery hold-down.

 

Legit OE, painted black. Toyota TRD caps as well

 

My PC does all I need, and I've told people that one of the keys to early retirement, (which I did), was to buy a coffeemaker. YMMV.

 

I’ve been mulling this over too, on my 07 I put it 2-3 inches above the battery, so you could slide it out to change it; on this truck I’m thinking about doing above the abs pump.

rive nuts to attach it to the upper support

 

Usually not a fan of blue, but that looks fantastic!

 

Looks great! I'm going to miss those wheels lol

 

Thanks, this gives me some visuals to think about

 

Here you go. Sorry, it's actually 25.00 but it comes with bulbs for so many things I don't know what else to replace. Maybe spares?

I copied @armyoffoo idea. I forgot who made the trays. https://www.tundras.com/threads/general-supercharger-thread.85513/page-658#post-3780104
I made my own tray with relay/power distribution block that fits above the brake lines. It's still a mess but better than before.

 

Great looking rig!!! Been trying to find wheels like that but struggle to find the bolt pattern. Did you order direct from them?

 

Can you have both a Pedal Monster and an OTT?
