What have you done to your 2nd gen Tundra today?

Mind sharing where you found it at that price? Also, is an alignment needed after swapping front sway bar?

 

I got it here: https://www.toyotasouthatlanta.com/ But unfortunately, it's not listed at that price anymore. About the best price I see right now is here: https://toyotaparts.bochtoyotasouth.com/oem-parts/toyota-trd-sway-bar-front-red-ptr620c180
No alignment needed, took about 45 minutes to install.

Might be best to put "PTR62-0C180" in your search engine. There might be better deals. My link was just from a quick search today.

 

Got the rears installed this morning.

Coils for the front are at the powder coat shop and I hope to have them back Monday.

 

So I decided to have the dealer do a drain n fill on the transmission after much debate and reading. Just bought it but at 125,000 it’s never been serviced. Honestly not as bad as I thought it would be. I requested a sample and took a picture but can’t figure out how the hell to add it to this post ‍♂️

 

Got some new shoes today!! 275/70 18 cooper discoverer at3 xlt’s...rides and drives GREAT!!

 

Figured it out lol

 

Wooop

 

Ok so update on these lights.
Bulb already blew. I have led H1s but they don't fit in these headlights. The output sucks like Nate said. Even more frustrating when you had led H1s in stock headlights.
So what are the brightest H1 flights like the pic since I have to go buy a pair anyway

 

crap. i bought those headlights and then a 20 dollar pair of LEDs, their coming in tomorrow

 

Had a long drive at night and can't deal with halogen since I've enjoyed my leds.
Im tempted to buy the led fogs that use the spring clasp.
Really no way to make my H1 leds fit this headlight assembly without cutting

 

what do you mean? are you talking about these lights?

 

The H1 LEDs I had were for my stock headlight assembly a 3 prong twist and rotate set up
The spyders I just installed have a different set up and the halogen bulb sets inside assembly and clip on to pos. Neg. And a spring clamp holds headlight bulb in place.

Having gone LEDs before I just hate the output of the halogen in the spyder headlight

 

so in theory if you DID keep the spyders installed as is and the stock halogen went bad, would you be able to go to autozone and get an H1 halogen bulb and replace it like you would think? or are you telling me that the halogen light is like permanently fixed? if the former is the case, then i would think you could swap out the bulb for an LED... my Spyders (the link i attached earlier) are arriving tuesday, but i have a set of these ready to install into the housings prior to installing the assemblies

Attached is the bulb from spyder system that blew already. They are replaceable.
The problem is the LED you bought and like the ones I have don't fit inside the spyder hole. Only the metal pronged bulb does.
I can't find any LEDs in that shape.

 

son of a $#@#% - have you tried returning them? let me know if you come up with any ideas, ill do some research hopefully we can figure something out, i like the look but hate the halogens too. i swear ive seen someone do it before tho

 

wonder how we contact this guy

or this guy

 

I bought mine from a member on here, he had already swapped the halogens for leds, so that’s what I’m running now. I can’t tell if anything was done to make them fit into the area, but they are definitely sticking out the back and some rubber was sliced to make it happen. No big deal here, seal em up as best you can and appreciate not having halogens anymore...

 

awesome thats what i was hoping! any possible way you could take a photo for me at some point id really appreciate it, or is it not visible from the engine bay

 

Here’s a pic from the sale, I looked at our conversation and he mentions “Had to cut the boots on the back for led fans to breathe but haven't had any problems”

 

you are the man! i appreciate the hell out of it brother!

 

Got the ARB awning installed

 

Just so its not too confusing.... the factory tundra headlight assemblies are fitted with H11 low beams. The spyder DRL headlights are fitted with H1. However, like jrharvey02 shows below, most H1 leds from Amazon will have a cooling assembly hanging out the back that will likely protrude out of the rubber boot, therefore needing a little modification.



I think its possible that H1 and H11 get confused between each other.

 

If you ordered H11, you will need to return them or exchanged them for H1

 

I got H1s just hoping I can trim the housings in a way that the LEDs will fit and not let water in

 

These should fit with a little boot mod like jrharvey02 shows

 

if you cut a small enough hole in the boot, you should be able to press the bulb in stretching the rubber around the collar of the bulb, effectively just leaving the cooling portion of the led outside the boot. My thought is to plug the led into the harness first and position the boot around the Led in the place you want it, then put the led in. you should be able to fold the boot over to see and latch the bulb in place....ill admit i havent done it on the tundra yet, but ive done it on about 4 or 5 vehicles prior.

 

Lifetime led makes a h1 bulb that will fit in the stock location of a h1 bulb the driver is not attached to the bulb so will not require any trimming.

 

Boom. There you go. I personally dont get enough rain in SoCal to worry about modifying the boot. Im gonna go the 30 dollar route, and then put the other 100 bucks towards my wheels. But the Lifetime is a great option for people who dont want to mod their boot.

 

Anyone happen to have a link to that?

 

Any updates on this and did you buy new coils for them or are you just powder coating your OEM coils?
