What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Bummer man. That sucks.

 

Had a road trip and picked these up for a crazy price. I got six of them. SIX! Tires are brand new.
Method 308 Roost
35x12.5x18

 

Those look fantastic, and 2 spares means you can get all kinds of "out there" when off roading. One big question though: How long before you color match them in Blue Ribbon Metallic?

 

No one:
BlueRibbon4x4:







Just joking, @BlueRibbon4x4! Your work is always awesome to see!

 

I replaced stock puddle lights with the VLEDS which is easy and there are videos as @TRDFerguson said. It is much more challenging when you do not have the lights and wires. Here is a thread: https://www.tundras.com/threads/installing-puddle-lights-on-factory-sr5-mirrors.44755/#post-1148611 and @RainMan_PNW has posted all of the wire diagrams and is the electrical wizard.

 

Gonna throw one in the Sequoia too, and realized I didn’t have one for the house, so got one for the house too. Under front driver’s seat. Plenty of room, feet never touch it. Simply used Velcro to attach the mounting plate to the carpet. Some use a bar to mount it to the seat bolts. Maybe I’ll do that down the road if the Velcro doesn’t hold up.

 

Awesome deal Geno!! Welcome to the bronze club..

 

Good idea to have one, but if you were to be in an accident that velcro might not stop your fire extinguisher from breaking your ankles.

 

Ahhh…good point Adam.

 

Anything not secured inside the vehicle during a crash becomes a missile. Including people. On of our company's safety guys was also an EMT, and he shared stories. Unpleasant ones.

 

Yeah buddy!!!

 

oh, y’all are just a couple of cheech and chongs.

 

Looks great! I’d strap that sucker down, like others have suggested. Just an idea for a mounting spot:

 

Nothing but painted metal. Stock photo from the google machine to illustrate.

 

Its just flat. The letters are just stuck on. Can be remove with a heat gun

 

Put on my 1.25" Bora spacers yesterday. Also let the axle droop and sprayed with compressed air and lube in an attempt to fix a squeak I've been having. Only to have the bright idea to grab and shake my spare tire to find the culprit. Dropped it, wiped everything down and sprayed some lube in the lifting mechanism, lifted the tire back up making sure it was tight and no more squeak.

No rubbing anywhere, especially on the LCA skid (main reason I got them). I tell you what I was over it by the time I finished the 5 mile test run they recommend, then had to take all 4 wheels off again to check torque. Just had to be the hottest day of the year so far . Had to wire brush the wheel interface, the hubs, the base of the studs before being able to install them.

Btw I know the wheel key is on the wheel still in one of the photos, I grabbed it after.

 

Rough country 30"....

 

Where were you able to get the emblem cover since AJT is no longer selling them?

 

Bill I got mine off EBay. And fit fine and the finish is nice on it. What 30 inch light bar did you add?

 

Don, it's the rough country 30", and man is it bright. They told me after the install that I may get ticketed, LOL

 

Looks good! It’s going to be a while until I can get rid of all the exterior chrome. It’s on the list though.

 

Thank you I had the 20 inch Bajadesigns on my 4runner Pro and sold it cause I traded my 4runner in. I plan on adding another to my tundra.

 

I forgot to ask what did you do with adding the switch inside. I removed a blank spot in my 4runner and adding onboard switch. I plan to do the same.

 

Bed rails installed, it can be done after the Toyota spray in bed liner, just need to find the holes and clean out for the bolts.

 

They added a switch to the left of the steering, never asked where I wanted, and I never thought about it.

 

Just ordered mine....Thx for the info.

 

Added Amp and 2 10" subs

 

Great idea, though I do have 3 people in the backseat often. I was thinking about another post I saw where someone mounted it to a SwingCase, but I’m worried about having it exposed to the elements since I don’t have a bed cover. Might just go ahead and use an aluminum bar to mount to the front seat bolts, or, drop the coin on the Desert Does It setup.
