What have you done to your Tundra today?

Installed a START X remote start today! Had a little hiccup programming the module, sent an email to the help desk, and had it completed within an hour! Awesome upgrade... call me spoiled! Going to put one in the 4Runner now!

 

Just bought this guy so thrilled 2014 Platinum!

 

A wee Yota to keep her company

 

And here I was thinking we couldn't get a new hilux

 

The sound system in the tundra sucks

 

Yeah what did you expect. It's a truck. Not a Lexus.

 

Oh yeah,,,,,,your right .lol

 

Repaired 3 small rock chips that i located in bottom of rear passenger door with some dr colorchip. Itll do i reckon. Hate toyota paint

 

I hate chips too

 

Tire shine... Just a little.

 

I use turtle wax tire spray shine,I spray it on then rub it in with sponges I get from the dollar tree and it looks fine. I used a lot of differant products but still didn't get that shine but the turtle wax brand is cheap from Walmart and works fine. I think I paid $2.83 a can and I have 8 cans but I can't find them anymore at Walmart. Amazon has them for about $8.00 a can something like that I think the spray shine works better for some reason. Oh and your truck looks awesome. Very mean looking. Great updates .

 

Thanks!

 

More!!!!!

 

cool look but you must burn through wheel bearings and suspension/steering bushings!

 

He does. He's in need of HD rated wheel bearings if anyone knows of any for our trucks. He's got a couple of threads going about this very issue.

 

I recently had installed a desert stealth fighter bumper. Warn 10k winch, synthetic line, factory 55 flat link. 30" Ridged single row light bar.

 

HELP!

I got a question about the wiring on the sequential turn signals. First off, when we first installed them on my 2013 Toyota Tundra and turned my headlights on...they just steadily ran like the hazards were on. So, I wired in some load resistors and stopped that issue, but now if it's daytime and I just turn on my parking lights they do the exact same thing! They work fine with the headlights on now though!? Any idea what could be causing this?

 

3” BDS lift with Fox 2.5s and 35” ridge grapplers with 17” methods…did all that last week! Here’s before and after

 

When the controller didn't work as expected, I wonder how long it took before the OP went back and read the installation manual for the first time. For those who have never installed one, these controllers should never be installed horizontally. (READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.) The amount of braking force is determined by a pendulum that's inside and mounted generally in line with the longer face of the unit. The closer to vertical the unit is mounted, the more sensitive the pendulum will be to your application of the tow vehicle brakes. The harder the brakes are applied, the further the pendulum will swing towards the front of the vehicle. The swing of the pendulum will change the resistance of a variable resistor in the circuit. The further the pendulum swings, the less resistance will be allowed in the circuit. The lower the resistance in the circuit, the higher the current applied to the electro-magnet at the trailer's wheels. That magnet then activates a mechanical arm that will physically apply the brakes. Conversely, the lower the current allowed, the more gently the brakes will be applied.

 

This was not an original idea. I had to plagiarize.

 

On my new 2020 Limited DC

I bought some tan / brown faux leather seat covers. I have a high grade brown leather steering wheel cover coming soon.

Then fabricated a pair of driving lamp brackets for the grill. I ordered 10,000 LM 60W driving lights that I'll connect to the existing driving lamps .

I have 2 different shops that are doing post bought vehicle inspections , so I can get the 'what's wrong' crap fixed b4 my 90 warranty expires .

lots more on order. like the shifter, cup holder, gate chrome shit that blinded me the 1 st time I test rode the limited. That's going bye bye



because I live out in the country, I started the new 'hanging' car canopy to cover the truck. my antique motorcycles are in my shop. no room for a truck. They come 1st

Ps ....... did you know the rear head rests FOLD DOWN ! ! ! ! !
...

 

Link to these covers? Looking good.

 

Then because these old eyes can't read the STUPID grayish letters on frickon' brushed metal dash to see the radio buttons ......

i went to my 'puter' and pulled up an excel page

typed in the 8 words of my dash radio in every 3rd box. sized 4 different columns w/ 16, 18, 20, 22 font and maybe another 4 sets BOLDED .

off to the printer to get a 1/2" x 7/8" size needed.
then spray glued that paper column size I Needed for my std. radio to a USPS stickie back postage label.
then added clear 2" packing tape over the glued letters for more protection.

Cut them to size. Then using alcohol [ no, not a beer ] to clean wipe the dash. Applied the labels to the buttons . NOW I can see the 8 buttons.

pics coming soon
..

 

I'm Not a type that has to spend Hundreds or Thousands on 8 bars / spots of lighting. As my wife and I get older I started adding aux. driving lights to our autos. I simply add the 2 new circuits to the existing ones . No messing with relays and new buttons .

On my LDMotocycle , I did go average for an LD bike and that one [ 1 of 7 i own ] has Eight Head Lights. 4 HID's and 4 Halogens. The truckers HATE me because I can see 1/8 miles down the road.

ok back to my 2020 DC Tundra, I added 2 10,000LM x 60W driving lamps
which cost $25.oo. A combo spot/ flood .
so there. ! ! !

 

Viz Strip for safety

night and day times

 

HI, just traded my 5th Gen 4Runner for this 2021 Tundra.

Slim LED Strobe Light Head $10.oo each
I bought 6 total and NOT ....... NOT the 4 pack.

Parts Included

1 - 18 Watt LED Strobe Light Head (P-STRB-1x18) 1 - Instructional Sheet
2 - Mounting Screws

• Operation
  
  Multiple P-STRB-1x18 light heads can be synchronized. Dual color strobes can synchronize with single color strobes (as well as other dual color strobes), in which case the patterns will match up, while the colors themselves won’t.
  In order to sync, lights will have to be on the same pattern before syncing. Connecting the white wire to the power for one second will select next flashpattern. Lights will return to the last pattern selected when power-cycled.
  

The P-STRB series Low Profile Grille and Surface Mount LED Light Heads have an ultra-low profile design to accommodate many vehicle applications. The wide-beam LED optics include 19 strobe settings plus constant on, sync functionality, and multiple flash patterns to ensure better visibility on the road. This strobe light head is ideal for emergency, service, and industrial work vehicles and performs well under harsh weather conditions. High-quality materials include die-cast aluminum housing and a gasketed polycarbonate lens which resists moisture and vibration. Select and control flash patterns with an optional rocker switch.
