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

Had to come home sick today, half day. Felt like shit all day, but to cheer me up I got things in the mail today....... Wires and such.
Thanks Chris and @metalpete

 

The other day I was driving by my neighbor who has two best gen best cabs(one in salsa red and the other in that fancy blue everyone gets a renob for) and noticed his side trim peeling down the passenger door, well today after I got home I noticed mine was too!!! And it’s not even hot here yet!
Maybe pull them completely? Isn’t it all just glue?

 

Best cab?

Blue does give be me a renob.

 

Slick Side! Slick Side!

I think there are some clips (toyota loves clips) let me check real quick like

FSM BO-33 through BO-35 covers the side moldings. There are "bosses" shown in the diagrams below.


Heres a photo from @DA Tunbrah showing the bosses filled prior to paint


And I crown myself Interim sloppy @shifty`
Somebody's gotta do it while he's off cloggin around

Ahh shit. Toasty has a DC. I don't know a damn thing about a DC. Crown rescended.

 

I didn't know the fancy blue was on ACs.....

 

I assume it’s the same but I’m down for speed holes…….

 

I love it!

Yes

Do you plan to share the rest of this progress at some point in time?

 

I'll have lots to share when I paint my truck, not sure when that will be though.

 

And these for good measure.

 

Cheers fam. To the blessings we(I) so often overlook

 

Picked up my right hand brackets for holding the plastic splash guard to my bumper. Definitely symmetrical, so they can be used for the left or right side splash guard.

 

I know this isn’t here nor there but I found it hilarious… be the man your truck sees you as. A buff Asian dwarf bbq’n Armenian pork belly listening to Dixieland delight

 

Went to my mechanic friend with a 12er so I could dump 10+ gal of waste oil.
Mama bears 4R is getting a oil change tomorrow, the whole shabang; cabin filter, clean the cone filter, grease the rear driveline and grease the UCAs(going to try a trick I learned from a lifeguard; grease the uca bushings with the thru bolt loose, then drive it around the block and tighten when done)

 

Interesting. Please update as I do (as everyone else) loosen bolt, grease, tight bolt, drive

 

Almost, loosen bolt, grease, drive, tighten bolt.

Hahah sorry I’m sure you understood the procedure but I got confused by your parentheses

 

Why yall loosen the bolt?

 

So the grease gets in there I suppose. That would make the most sense.

 

total chaos calls for a loose bolt when greasing the bushings or you could blow one of the bushings out from pressure

is this some kind of euphemism the kids are using?

 

Hahah no but I like it, “an old lifeguard trick”

 

Lifeguards are my favorite street gang

 

Hahaha makes it look so easy on a jig table and then says bye in front of a truck

 

My bushings have little channels to spread the grease.

 

They didn’t explode like he promised.

 

how is the lifeguard doing these days?

 

Great, busy kickin ass and makin names. I get the surf report daily

 

Wild fire response is on point in SoCal. Heros in action. These boyz doing the jobIt was a good fight till this big boy showed up and sprayed red flame retardant on the entire boarder. Well done fellas. Well done

 

They are v-neck wearing jerks!
