What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

My truck is almost identical to yours. Except I have the Diamondback cover, vinyl wrapped my bumpers, removed the Tundra, SR5 emblems and replaced the 5.7 badge with a black one..

Looks great!

 

Yup. Had to add them to keep my factory wheel with the new upper control arms.

 

Did LED dome, map, bed, and reverse lights. For just a few bucks it really modernizes the truck.

 

Ball joint looks a little gooey, I'd clean it off and keep an eye on it.

Let me know how your Autel works out, I'm tired of going to Discount to get the sensors synced twice a year.

 

Does anyone have an idea when Ironman bummers will be on sale again?? Thx

 

4th of July sale for Ironman... worth the wait!

 

Thx

 

Finished fitting the fiberglass just need a few clips for the grill. Closed the hood gaps and lots of shave fit shave fit. Never done anything like this before. Time for a DIY paint job on them. I guess we'll see that goes lol.

 

Looks great I don’t have the skill or patience

 

The first go looked like shit lol. I have zero patience but I get ocd over some stuff lol

 

Installed the Free swing case from RealTruck I received from the rebate of the tonneau cover i bought. Wasn’t going to but then i said, wth. It may be useful.


can’t say I wont use it now. 10 mins later and i already empty the inside cab and transfer to the case.

 

Nice! Looks similar to my 2014 Crewmax sans dents....

 

I really like that sort of thing! Well done!

 

Not today but yesterday I attempted to change out the gear oil in my 2 differentials and transfer case. Well, upon opening them up, they all had good oil in them. The transfer case was a little darker than the other 2 but still clear and seemed to be in good shape. I'm thinking I must have had them serviced when I took it in to get the transmission serviced.

 

Should have hit me up in a PM - If I had known you were needing one for the platinum I would’ve recommended the other one… you ordered the standard switch panel for the little pocket behind the shifter.

 

Looks good in the end - glad you got it to work.

 

Lord I hope not or the boss will be pissed ... some pics so far

 

This scorcery.... The PITA was getting the axle out and back in. I assume it might have something to do with spline tolerance from the nitro gear which I had installed couple years back

 

Axle seal?

 

Applied ceramic treatment to the black

 

Yesterday, I added a cooler and used the outlet line to do a complete fluid change. I ran 14 qts thru it. Also added an inline filter before the cooler. Will run the thermostat pinned open for a couple weeks to let the filter catch anything just in case. But I doubt it's really needed. Fluid was black but did not smell burnt.

2020 Tundra 1794 with 75k.

Coolant was changed a couple weeks back. Diffs, transfer case, brake, and power steering were done in January. She's set for a while.

 

That looks nice. What product did you use? Got an Amazon link?

It was time, for sure! Nice work and finishing of the cooler install!

 

Went out this morning to the test loop. Truck felt good still need to get comfortable again. Made some rebound changes to the bypass tubes. And did a quick roll on at 50mph and clearly it has some traction issues. Pretty wild

 

Man I want to do the cooler if anything for easier fluid flushes but it's so dang expensive.

 

Badass!

 

Yeah it was about $700 all in for the cooler. Fluid was another $120. You can do it much cheaper with a Hayden cooler and diy'ing the mounting bracket. If you skip the oem hardlines and hoses, you can probably be in it under $300 for the thermostat, cooler, and transmission hose. You just need to get creative and route or protect the transmission hose from the exhaust heat.

 

When I looked at the kit it was $1200? Could you message me what you did, $700 is more palatable then $1200. I'd rather do the OEM hard lines.

 

That’s how it’s supposed to be. You have a platinum and they don’t have the cut out. He has a pretty extensive write up on his build/vendor page about having to cut the leather and how to secure it.
