What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

It was a fun day! Can’t wait for the next time now.

 

Yup southern style off-road slimline hybrid oem bumper paired with warn platinum Xeon 10s winch and Baja designs s8 lightbar. Lovex3 this combo. Looks great, the bumper hides it all and secures it. The lightbar throws stupid light very far also high and wide. It basically literally turns night into day. The winch is awesome. It's fast, it's strong, and it's very easy to use. The remote clutch is beyond convenient. I got a video but having trouble being able to show here bc mp4 file. Basically hit a button on wireless remote and pull out winch rope, hook up shackle to prolink then to whatever ie chain, tree saver, tow strap, ect. Then just hit button on remote to start pulling in. Repeat process. I was able to pull about 5 rounds to my splitter in less than 5 minutes with 1 hand while recording video on cell. It's crazy convenient.

 

Wow! That sounds awesome!! Enjoy that new toy. Glad to see you're making work fun. Keep us posted. (I want one.)

 

Tnx. Yeah any winch is cool, but this 1 is a special little snowflake lol. Speaking of snow I plan to get creative to get my money's worth out this thing. After my boys take their sleds down the hill I'm going to save myself from having to walk down and help them back up. I'm going to have them shackle the rope on sled and hit the button from the top as they sit on the sled and catch a ride up. Can't wait. This bad boy was expensive, gotta find ways to get ur money's worth.

 

Hey Chris. Plan on doing fatmat under hood soundproof and rattle trap 80 on the doors in Dec. Will have to wait for vaca to do cab floor and roof. I may hit you up for some advice/tips right before I start. Like the way you started with the back half there. Give us an update in cabin noise diff when you're finished. Did you do a before decibal reading? I used an android app in mine and it was 1 or 2 db off from car/driver revival review for 2014 at idle and hwy. Thanks.

 

Hahaha! Awesome. And they'll probably love this.

 

Looks like a great time Aaron and perfect weather. From that 1st pic, it's hard to tell who's truck is who's. Kinda jealous. Enjoy..........

 

Looks like an awesome day! All great looking trucks too - something about white tundras...

 

Not a problem, I watched several YouTube videos to learn how to disassemble the door panels without breaking anything. You will need a set of plastic panel removal tools as some of the clips will stay in the door and not come off with the panel. Just take your time and keep track of where pieces came from. For the rear seats in a gen 3, one of the bolts is a different thread pitch than the rest - rear center bolt of the larger bench.
I did not do and DB tests before. Once I finish the flooring I will be able to give an update on road noise. By just doing the doors, so far the factory speakers sound a lot better and there are less rattles

 

Wash, Wax, exterior Detail. Interior next weekend.

 

It was a blast! You can't tell from the pics but a couple of those turns were a little hairy. I had to reverse out of two of the turns just to get through. Yes it's hard to tell us apart. There's only one pic of my truck, it's the first one in the line up. The other pics were Anthony and Eric. And their trucks were even hard for me to tell which was who from afar. And you're right the weather was perfect!

Thank you!

 

Got new head light instaled finally I am really loving the new mean look of the truck now and they are much brighter at night
Got the harness from iHacker Thx

 

.

 

I'm really impressed with the high beam brightness.

 

Wash and a wax!

 

Looks great, when I was debating keeping pro wheels vs methods vs warlords I was wondering how they would look. I figured that would look great on a mgm and I was right. Doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing on the headlight retro looks surprisingmy good too. Taking chances I like it.

 

Actually they are Spyders, smoked with chrome housings. I got them before I decided to delete all the chrome on my truck. They are the only remaining chrome unless you count light bars and pods...

They don't look terrible but I'd prefer to have black. If anyone out there wants to swap my smoked chrome for your black..

I was going to do a retrofit but the company I went through did a terrible job. I just recovered a portion of what I spent on them, they still owe me upwards of $400 though.

 

@Backslider , your truck looks great!

When I finally connected "backslider" with your truck being registered in Utah, I had a good laugh. Perfect.

 

It's great that SOMEONE gets it!

 

Nothing huge like most of you do but installed the Toyota Bed Rail Kit today.

 

Great addition. Love my bed rails!!

 

If u use the bed rails and tie downs as much as I do that is HUGE. Sometimes it's a little addition that makes a big impact. Nothing to be ashamed of.

 

Thanks Aaron. Just imagine if I had better suspension. No mercy! Asians that knows how to drive. Lol

 

My kids are still talking about your driving! They enjoyed watching you and waiting to see what you were going to next.

 

What is this driving of which you speak? Come on, what did you do that was special!?? We live vicariously....

 

Added some ucas, an extra cb shim, and a diff drop.

 

On a side note, the diff drop install is more of a pain than the suspension stuff lol

 

Yes you are not kidding about high beam really impresed

 

Me and wifezilla was cleaning the garage and she said "whats that?" pointing to my front sway bar I removed, she said "is it safe?". Im proud of her for knowing what it does by saying that but then again I had to suffer through the "you took it off because of some youtube video?", blah blah she's worried yada ya. teeeheehee, i knew I was gonna hear it but hey its my truck, she has her own vehicle.
