What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Thanks.
I wonder if anyone has done it with Diode Dynamics?

 

I believe I did see that somewhere, but they changed the bezels out to the standard OE LED fog bezels and not use the original Rigid fog bezels....

 

Went to rigs and coffee

Two big OEM+ mods today. All before the heat advisory kicked in at 10am here in Nevada too!

Did the FRAC harness and front camera install. Big shout out to @TundraTex for making a quality product. Sir, if I ever get to meet you in person, I owe you a beer and a Thank You! Did all the soldering last night and install this morning. Also got the lighting wired in for the OEM style switch.

I also did the OEM tailgate lock actuator tied to the fob. Easy install. Hardest part for me was getting my 6’ 2” 270lb frame under my (stock height) truck to run the wiring harness along the length of the vehicle. One side note: If you do this install AND have a catalytic converter shield…you might have to remove it. I was about 30 seconds away from having to until I found just enough room to squeeze my big hands up in there to guide the new harness. I have the Skeerdy Cat Catalytic Shield sold by Extreme Terrain that protects all 4 cats. If you have a smaller cat shield that only covers 2 then it might not be as much of an issue. YMMV based on whatever cat shield you have.

BTW did I mention how much I hate triple digits?? House goes on the market Monday. I hate to give up my current mortgage interest rate but I can’t wait to move. Carolina’s here we come!

 

Actually serious. Take a look at any 2.5 generation Tundra and you will see it. And then ... you can't unsee it.

 

@centex Details please! I installed the Trail Grid Pro Sony XAV-9500ES bundle and would love to have transmission temp displayed. Looks like you've got the same head unit.

 

I’ve got the x4000 but head unit shouldn’t matter as it’s part of the maestro. Essentially it’s a beta firmware from Maestro that myself and another member have tested and got it working. Should be released to the public soon.

Not bad for a 10yr old truck...

 

It's been a banner week for my '15 getting ready for our southwest family vacation. At home, I pulled my coil overs to add some height, but they were seized. I had to take them into my brothers shop. Having a Toyota MDT for a little brother is a great situation lol. I also finally installed my JBA uppers, and Coachbuilder 3" shackles. I still have low mileage OEM leaf packs and a few other minor goodies to install, just ran out of time.
Then today, he's doing the tough work. New Mishimoto radiator and silicone hoses, water pump, resealing the leaking heat exchanger, and installing my SDHQ brake lines, and he's going to try to get a little more out of the coilovers but I'm not sure he'll be able to. I don't know why he put that on the exchanger, jokes on him. If it ever leaks again he'll be the one that has to look at it

 

I can’t unsee it haha. F***! Makes me want to run 1.5” driver side 1.25” passenger. I’m sure that is a “no no”.

 

Color me disappointed. Seeing that intake removed, I was sure a supercharger was gonna take up that space.

Carry on, I'll get over it.

 

This the main reason our right side mirrors are concave. Yes, objects may appear distorted. Yes, they are distorted!

 

I never knew that. Wish I didn’t because now my OCD is gonna look for it.

 

Well, the ol' boy has 206K on the drivetrain. Only way it'll ever see a supercharger is with a motor/trans refresh.



Plus, I've already got a supercharged truck lol. Two on premium would hurt a little bit lol.

 

Repainting my dash trim pieces. First tried plastidip but I didn't like the rubberized feel.



Really diggin this color. I think it's gonna look good once installed.

 

Got a sound clip?

 

It's all Tundras as mentioned.

 

07-13 as well.

 

Yep, my 08 and 21 are both showing that right wheel chubby.

 

Glad to hear everything went well with the install. Gotta figure out how to take everybody up on the beer offers. Maybe when I retire from the day-job I’ll hit the road in the RV for a FRAC Beer tour across America!

 

Went from 295's to 37s
Digging the new look

 

Damn...Gas stations love you I'm sure. You need an emblem for your grille...

 

Showed my son that my truck gets better gas mileage than his Tacoma.

 

True statement!

 

Hugged my 2.5 Gen and said thanks for not being a 3rd Gen.
Opened the hood and hugged the 5.7L and said thanks for not being a 3rd Gen.

 

Truth to that!!

 

Everybody likes that

 

Gave it a much needed wash and also swapped in a washable cabin filter. Worth a shot since it was about double the cost of disposable.

 

Seems to work for me.
