What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Tried the paint method on the chrome interior first but it started to chip over time.

Filled in the recessed areas of the bezel with acrylic, sanded, then vinyl wrapped it.
This is a fairly simple wrap project & holds up well through the heat of summer and everything being chucked in the drink wells.

This DIY KIT below has the Acrylic & enough 3M 2080 Series Vinyl to do the drink bezel plus the shifter trim.
I just need to edit the tutorial for it.

Went a little higher. Put another shim on top of mid setting 5100’s for 2-1/2” lift in the front. Added Boss 4x4 shackles for 1-1/2” in the rear for a little rake.

 

I'm a huge fan of that color and dig your setup. it was so hard to pass on it for my MGM

 

Started the process of getting a 12v socket in the bed near the tailgate to run my Yeti 400 that powers my Dometic fridge. Got the hole cut and wiring run but not hooked up yet as I ran out of some connectors. My temporary plan is to splice it off the wiring running from the engine bay into the bed that I ran for the Viair compressor relay that attaches to their air tank. Should be done with it all Monday when the connectors show up from Amazon and i'll post some pics!

 

Thanks! Dig the MGM too!

 

Thank you, sir!

 

I installed the Pedal Commander today. Wow, this completely changes throttle response. I’ve been using City +2 (seems to be the most popular setting), and still, you BARELY touch it, and it’s off to the races. I tried ECO mode, and I can see how that would indeed work for improved MPG; the throttle response is VERY slow. I know it’s completely psychological, but it seems like I put a SC on top of the 5.7!!

 

285 75 17 KO2 installed on matte bronze icon six speeds (chrome lugs are temporary. Black on order)

 

Going out on the old



Going in on the new




I think these new caps will look great when I throw them on next tire rotation. Since I'm due to rotate in next 500 miles I'm left to just picture them on til then.



For now, until my planned to be soon oil change and tire rotation I'm left to imagine that those new caps I'm pretty sure will look badass on this.



Until then this Yota will continue to make all my coworkers Dodge, Chevy, and Fords look like little kids toy trucks lol.

I'm stuck in a never ending battle of 3 Tundras vs about 30 of those other guys. Although I feel bad for him, my buddies F150 motor just shit the bed with only 50k, needless to say I've got plenty ammo at the moment.

 

What paint did you use?

 

Rust-oleum 2X Primer and Paint Flat Black. Four coats.

 

What wheels are those? They look great.

 

Tnx method 313s

 

Thanks! Now I'm torn between those and the Evo coarse dakarzeros.

 

Haha! Hey from CFalls. Hope to see ya around!

 

I rarely drive at night, so I can't really say, sorry! If I was to guess I'd guess no, since they don't really shine backwards, just inwards.

 

AJT Designs shift gate cover was in today's mail.

 

Mine will be here Monday. Looks good.

 

Finally finished the 1000mi break-in period and went full throttle for the first time with the Pedal Commander... HOLY BALLSACKS!

 

Is there a promo code for AJT

 

I’ve got six items in the cart to order

 

Besides Method having an excellent reputation and having myself own and beat on Method rims in the past, the 313s are extremely light weight which was a big deciding factor for me. The tradeoff on owning these big badass and by far the best traction in every possible condition tire is they make noise when they roll and they're far from being lightweight. I knew both going into getting them so I felt I needed this wheel to compensate for the weight. I already had an upgraded sound system to compensate for the tire hum lol. Gotta say I'm beyond happy with my wheel/tire combo.

 

Just ordered a set of 2019 led headlights and a set of led fog lights. May have snuck in a trd front sway bar too.......... shhhhh don't tell my wife

 

Your secret is safe here, you ain't the only one.

 

I replaced the incorrect rails for the Retrax XR with the right ones (if you order, I don't recommend ordering from JustBoltOn). I like the beefier look to the rails. I'll be saving up for some Yakima stuff next. I also added the Tundra bed mat to help keep things from sliding around too much.

 

Sliders are on. Still have a few holes to drill and bolts to place. Ran out of time. Had two hr delay as power went out on me. No lights until about an hour ago. Finished placing drivers side and ran out time for the day.

 

Foam cannon and it’s snowing in SC!
