What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I like it. My son did the same. 2001 Tundra TRD 4x4. Pretty nice truck still.

 

What plant is in the background?

 

Replaced bedside vinyl

 

Picked up some like new used wheels and tires. 17"x 8.5 0 offset Fifteen52's and Falken Wildpeaks.

I really don't believe that the dealership ever rotated my tires do to the fact its 1 year old, I have 30k on it which means they should of been rotated 5 times already and they were stuck. I understand the rears getting stuck but the front were too. The rears were so bad I had to spray the crap outta the hub and lug holes, loosen the lugs and rock the whole truck back and forth to the point the truck was sliding across the driveway, and I still had to mule kick them 100 times.I know steel and aluminum react but damn..smh

 

I hear so many complaints about dealership work that it makes me not even want to go there for the free oil changes.

 

Those of you that swapped to the pro grill with TSS... did you have trouble with the sensor malfunctioning after the swap? I’ll go 4-5 miles and it says to clean sensor. TIA

 

ONLY with ICE (Think SNOW). Never dirt or rain. But I mean it's happened 3 times, not a huge deal. Just the first time scared me. Cleaned off ice, good to go.

 

I did the swap a year ago and have had no issues with it. Only when its snowing had it turned off Did you buy the oem garnish? I heard that is an issue with some people. I even swapped grills back to get the TSB work done and then nack to the pro and no issues.

 

Yeah thats all ive been going for but now im questioning everything.

 

I seem to remember someone posting about putting a washer behind one (more?) of the mounting screws to alter the angle a bit to correct this issue - can't find the post though. Anyone else remember this?

 

Took mine to the stealership for the final time last week for a scheduled oil change. I was there for an hour and a half! Two days later, I noticed a small puddle of oil on my garage floor. Called them and they said, “just bring it in, we’ll put on the lift and check it out...anytime, no need to schedule.” Brought it in, got the runaround because I didn’t schedule it. I got the, “who did you talk to?” treatment. Forty minutes later, they fixed the oil leak.

 

We must be lucky here. I’ve had great work here and they actually just spent a week replacing my main ECU harness (rodent damage). My only complaint is getting my starter reinstalled, which isn’t the dealerships fault, just an annoyance.

 

I would check this first. Unless you got the grille from local or online dealership, it’s worth a try.

 

I got it from Tacogarage. With the aftermarket garnish.

 

Been on my list since I got the truck and finally purchased. My wife has Weathertechs in her Subaru and I like the feel of these better (softer).

 

I’ve had that problem while working on my cousin’s Tundra. Dealership actually cross threaded 2 of the lugs on one wheel. Had to fight with it for 20 minutes then used a 2x6 board and a sledge hammer.

 

Not yet, unfortunately. Looks like a Kenwood, though.

 

I noticed my spiral cable has two unused pins. Is that enough to run paddle switches? I see three extra wires coming out in the Tundra thread.

 

I did not have any problems yet, changed over about 2 weeks ago (about 100 miles so far). Worked properly right after install. Got mine fr Amazon

Duh that’s why it lifts, reduces wind drag by giving the air somewhere to go. Especially good for side wind gusts at highway speeds.
