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

I woulda went bigger with the fish sign. Kinda gets lost on the bumper.

 

Sorry if I'm late, but yes, you are correct. Inner tie rods have a washer that's bent over in 2 spots to act as a fail safe.

 

Went to the desert this weekend. Weather was perfect! Couple dogs came to check out my rig, haha

I gotta say these new Archive Garage leafsprings and bump stops feel amazing. I figure the fact that I do some offroading, had 20+ year stock springs and a heavier camper shell. Getting the new leafs and bumps feels like I just float over the bumps now. Definitely worth it!

 

Lil cockroach just chillin down there taking a dirt nap. Finally, found something that kills cockroaches.

 

Pups are all ready to load up!

 

Yea they came running over and wanted to get in the truck as i was parking and getting out. Super friendly!

 

thanks for reinforcing my want of sliders into a 'need' of sliders. When my piggy bank starts bitchin, you'll get partial blame. Where is that trail?

 

Yes you need them! They double as a great step, haha!

Thats a trail called Sandstone Canyon in Anza Borrego. Beautiful wash that turns into some slot canyons you can drive into. Pretty amazing place and had it mostly to myself. On my way out Saturday, I saw tons of vehicles on their way in. Definitely camping season in the deserts now

 

Well dang, now i wish i was heading to parker.

 

yea you wouldnt be too far from Anza Borrego then. I unfortunately cant make it to Parker this year either. Ill try for Sedona next year

 

We need to get @JakeJake and or @FishNinja to fab us up some Texas Best Gen custom sliders. I'd go in on a bulk buy as I'm sure you would too.

 

Think i should hole-saw my hitch or fight this fight once, then put the shackle bolt on the right way?

anyone know if the ?dirt king? Taco shackle brackets fit?

 

Isn't it just 6 or 8 bolts to remove the hitch?

 

Yea. Just pissed at the indianians.

 

I'm sure they meant well.

 

Fight it once, it's not that bad dude. Pull the leaf+shackle, set it side by side with the new leaf, move the shackle over, reinstall the new leaf.

 

Yea, but this is the 2nd time. Luckily the newer trucks had enough of a cutout to get the bolt, or it would be my 4th time.

 

Meh. I dunno. It's 1 extra fastener to juggle per side. NBD.

 

I just bought all the led lights to do the full interior. Just need to get led bulbs for my tails and side markers.

 

you should of asked first. I got a whole load of LEDs in my garage. Would a thrown them to you for a fiver. You would just need like 3-5 t5’s to do the tiny lights.

 

I have all of them in the garage but I'm not SA local.

 

you can throw em at me, those'll fit in a backpack. But i can only drink more than 2 if i can sleep in your garage or something.

 

Lmk when you wanna come get’em

 

Sorry, the new iphone update really slowed down my typing. Funny how 'the wrong way' to type is the right way all of a sudden, and nobody apologizes. I didnt use my thumbs, but i'm pretty quick at 4 finger poking at a keyboard. And even better with thumbs.
yea, door lights and roof lights are all i need. Maybe the mirror vanity lights. i can solder wires, but not convinced i can solder to a board. So i dont plan to dick with the dash, except to unplug things.

 

My mirrors don’t have lights

 

Oh yea, forgot how much better they make things instead of how they start with perfection & ruin it.

 

Hey, for those that are familiar with diff changes..here is my 500 mile break in:


That big shit is prob debri frum under truck. Sounds and operates great. Totally quiet. Sans obvious.

Regarding rear lock brake in

 

I thought 02 dash had twist ins????

 

He said he wants to drink beer and crash out in your garage because hell be on his motorcycle.You gotta learn to speak Caseyese.
