What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Lets goo!

thanks! Just going to do some rustoleum spray paint- self etching primer then some matte black

 

Wow. That looks like a GM cluster. What the hell?!

 

Amber should look good. My 03 Taco came stock with amber and I liked it. Went well with the white face gauges.

 

I'm fully erect today.

 

Nice a stiffy lol

 

Tip for anyone replacing your steering rack bellows. Make sure you know which part# goes with each side. They look very close and once you put the wrong one on, it takes some force to remove. I controlled my mangling tendencies this time.

Also, a pipe wrench and jack handle make quick work of the inner tie rods.

 

On Season 12 Episode 8 of Two Girls Garage, the girls rebuild a Tundra steering rack using only regular mechanics tools.

 

Ah yeah sure enough there's a crack that's hard to see at first. That settles it!

 

Good for you, now cover that protrusion up ffs!

 

Re-did wiring, shortened ARB harness. Deleted switch 2.

 

Nice job. Man I need to clean my carpet

 

That truck could eat crackers in my bed. Worry free.

 

Have to agree to disagree. Ive owned two of those v6 turds. Danger slow.

If it gets above 90* you might get 20whp out of sc. Unless you add a IC.

 

Just gotta add fog tabs, skid tabs, and paint

 

Well that's a bit excessive. It really depend on your altitude now. Air density is the frienemy of boost. If you're looking for consistency a FMIC in a must Super, Pro or Turbocharged. If your looking for max performance adding a water meth injection kit to your intake pipe is a good way to go. You can also just use methonal as well it will really bring down cylinder and intake temps. And if youre usong a big enough injector you will need to tune/ code it into your combustion programming. But you'll never not make power.

You can also add a CO2 fogger for the front mount, chilling it will help with lowering the IT temps

 

Facebook market place strikes again. I found these an hour away and had to grab them. 17x8 -10 bs and all 4 brand new in box never been mounted. Pretty pumped

 

How much were they? I have the same wheels I got used as well.

 

Went and helped @AZBoatHauler install a sweet ass bumper, and checked out his sons sequoia. I got scolded for getting a sun burn……. Suns out, guns out sorry

 

I paid $1,000 for them. It’s a lot but I really like them and they are new. Do you have a pic of your truck with them?

 

Nice score. Mine are gunmetal.

 

Ive always like balck and white builds

 

Forgot bolts and nuts for the skid. And still gotta make some end caps. And broke a bnib can of paint. But pretty much done

 

Pics of the sweet ass bumper

 

Changing the spark plugs for the first time in my "new to me" tundra. 7/8 ignition coils have cracks. On 6/8 the crack is along the plastic seam. Is this a major issue? What catastrophy eventually happens if I continue using these coils?

 

might cause some trouble in heavy rain, most of mine are cracked like that, but hasnt been an issue yet.

 

Misfires at the most inopportune time. Might be best to have a couple coils on hand just in case or just replace them proactively.

 

In addition to what they said, you can get Denso replacements on Rock Auto. Around $57 last I checked.

 

Damn, I didn't want to blow over $400 on a spark plug change. $52 ea on rock auto. Oh well.

 

Spark plus cost $3/each. Coils go for $52 and don’t have to be changed as often unless they’re the 100k platinum type.
