Future plans for your 1st gen?

not in any particular order
-replace OEM exhaust that finally wore out (part is discontinued), with after-market Borla touring catback, not sure how it gonna sound, NO REFUNDs if not happy with sound
-new audio head unit (4th gen) with FLAC usb port to listen to mega gigabytes of tunes on roadtrips, not sure if I want to do the Alpine or Pioneer , what do you think, critter?
-frame cleaning, reproofing, have not found suitable shop to do this work
-research new bedliner, I hear the spray-in ones are nice? I would like to see one first,though ... Unfortunately I have small spotty abrasions underneath plastic one around the rails that I keep touching up with paint that always seems to disappear, this might be a because body shop told me I have to have the entire box repainted to properly resolve it

-figure out whatever happened to my MPG, have lost about 50miles per tank of fuel after I got some new rubber onit, not quite sure what the deal with that is
-figure out whatever happened to my engine compartment noise/weather strips that mysteriously disappeard
-try to locate another official Toyota hood/bugshield protector to fit the one that was recently destroyed ... anybody know of one that I can get ahold of?
-30k maintenance at ToyoTechs

... tbc

floor mats, driver side is worn to rubber backing

 

do Line x for the bedliner, their products are great

 

Here's what's on my 'to-do' list this spring/summer:

• Tundra brake upgrade
• Front bumper is rusting, so that needs repaint/replace
• Timing chain
• Front/rear shocks - maybe do a full OME overhaul
• Tires (maybe wheels)
• Head unit - haven't even started scoping this out yet
• rearview mirror - stock is all faded, maybe find one with a backup camera (if they exist for our trucks)

 

Maybe sell it before it gets any rustier.

 

Short list: besides Reg maintenance obviously
Big 3 install
Winch
Skids front to back
New corner lights with blinker relocation
Re-gear front diff to 4.88
T100 rear axle w/4.88 and ARB
HAM radio
Tundra front brakes
Bed Rack mods for accessibility of gear

 

I own this truck and my '16 Lexus RX350. This truck will be with me for the rest of my life. I will never sell it. I keep it maintained. The only stuff I added to it were a bullbar with Hellas, twin catbacks, a snugtop and Rhino-liner. I added all that when the truck was young. The only plans I have are new OEM headlights, a new console hatch, and a new glove box door. That's it-boring as hell.
She's too damn nice in stock form

 

- Wheel Spacers
- Lift
- Window Tint

 

That's how I intend to leave it when I'm done with it.

 

garage with room to install a lift!

 

what's the twin catback look like? was there much modification to existing that you had to do?

 

I had them installed in 2009 at a custom exhaust shop. He mandrel-bent them after the rear end to go one-over-the-other past the spare tire then back side-by-side after the spare turning sideways and tucked close to body. So yeah, quite a bit of custom bending for this application.
