WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

Ditto to what @Ipaddick said “They’re ss2 from diode dynamics. They also have a no cut option which I have. It’s a 7pin harness so plug and play and simple.”.

I installed the flush mount kit. It came with a switch, relay, and wiring harness. They do have a kit that mounts to the rear of the bumper and plug directly into the hitch harness. I liked the look of the flush mounts and, given that I’ve nearly torn my rear bumper off while exploring, I’m a bit overly sensitive to anything that makes my departure angle any worse.

Do not get the hitch pod..it sucks. I sold it and got the baja designs pod and it's way brighter. Those dual lights are probably brighter than any pod, should work well for everyone

 

Installed the EGR, aka Toyota, bug deflector. Cause we are all bugs right. This one for Tundra is more wobbly than the equivalent for ForeRunner, so the seven (not just four but seven!) rubber cones are actually necessary.

 

You added the plug in the bed too?

 

nope. The truck came with that.. I just added the tie down.

 

Added some bed features.

 

Added Mountain Hatch tailgate panel with Gator Skyn matting

 

New truck needs new toys. Just got my Terra TRD Pro and LOVE it...of course, can't leave it alone, even though it has almost everything you could need. I chose to get the Retrax EQ tonneau and did a self-install. First, the end result is amazing and very happy with how it turned out. Second, Retrax documentation is BAD (F***ing BAD). There were about 20 steps left out of the install guide, right at the start where you need to 'make sure that...' and 'to keep from having ...., do ....', there is a jump from 'unpack the parts' to 'have a friend help you lift it on your truck'. There were also errors in their install videos, including a plug location that was completely wrong and almost had me making irreversible modifications to an electronics connector when they said 'unplug the top most black connector and replace it with the female end of the T cable'. Turns out, it's the BOTTOM most black connector that needs to be unplugged and replaced.

Be super careful folks...enjoy your trucks, enjoy your toys, and make sure to share your help with others, as well as make sure the gear manufacturers keep their instructions and support up to date and correct!!

 

Got a lowering kit.

 

OK, I'll bite. What did you put in the box of the truck?

 

Couple hogs..

Ok. You also said you added the USBs and I thought the USBs came with the Bed plug.

 

Almost 1/2 a cord of oak firewood. Google says it’s close to 2,000lbs since it isn’t kiln dried.

Not bad for a half ton.

 

Got to give you credit. You are using it as it should be.

 

Finally got my truck back after suprise Prius decided my lane was temporarily his lane...



$6,000ish of repairs and she's back from the body shop and home.

 

How does that compare to their F1?

 

It's what I didn't do to my Tundra today.... Finally broke down and bought the black plastic front emblem cover. This was after I prepped and painted the one that came with the truck (twice) but it still ended up getting paint chips, so I broke down and spent $50 on a piece of plastic. I found out why it costs so much, it must come with bacon flavoring or my dog thought so. So now I'm even more thrilled to buy another cover. FML

 

I've had dogs pee on boxes of parts and it was like the smell embedded in some of them lol gotta love pets..
you got a part number for that emblem??

I will say that I thought the spray color was awesome. It's black chrome. But it just doesn't last in that area. Too much rub from surrounding parts. Almost wish I could spray it then wrap it with PFF.

 

Got some tint work done today - added 15% to moonroof and had the shop install pre-cut "C" tint I bought online to the tailights. It is actually two pieces of film to cover the whole light but only did the C first and I'll try it for a while. Also attaching pictures from recent tint work for ideas. Headlight marker, mirror turn signal, 3rd brake light.

Black on black with all that tint is too sexy haha.

 

Cover delivered and installed after work. Super easy and quality seems good.

 

Got the Borla s-type exhaust installed today, bed step had to be removed though, hopefully I can find a way to fit it back on eventually

Where did you get the bed tiedowns?

 

While I like the Borla rumble the best outta all currently available aftermarket exhausts (even though they all still sound like riced-out Civics) I gotta say:
I've emailed Borla twice regarding the [then] upcoming Tundra exhaust and asked specifically about compatibility of the bed step.
Never got a response regarding it (they replied, but never addressed by bed step Q)..........now I know why.

Color me unamused!
:/

 

This is where I ordered mine and I got the powder coat red instead of the anodized.. Arizona sun is brutal and I'm hoping these stand up better. The shipping was fast too. I recommend them. https://billettiedowns.com/products/bed-tie-down-anchors-for-toyota-tundra-pair

 

Glad you got it back! What’s the details on your lift/tire combo? I tried snooping on your page but with no luck.

 

I've got a 2" front, 1" rear lift, all Dobinsons IMS. Wheels are stock with BMS 1" wheel spacers to keep from rubbing the sway bar. Tires are Firestone XT 285/65/20, just barely short of a 35x11.5.

I really wanted the "OEM Plus" look, where it remained stock like, but better. I like to think the small lift and small tire upsize achieved that.
