LS6 Swap 2nd Gen Build + New Tundra

Fire sale, 27k takes my 2nd gen home.

 

Don’t sell it broken. Fix it and get your money’s worth.

 

Honestly dude, I don’t have the space, time, energy, motivation, or money to deal with this truck anymore. It’s always gonna be something with it.

 

Got a hot water heater, some rotopax, traction boards, and propane mounted in the trailer tonight. I still need to figure out the battery box situation. And all the wiring needs to be done nicely. Ordered a step down converter to power the propane water heater off of 12v instead of two d cell batteries. Also finally got a working 12v power supply for Starlink.

 

Looks good. Whats inside the trailer, storage?

 

Yeah pretty much. I have a water tank, 960AH batteries, switch pros, the rest is storage. I want to get a dometic fridge to put in there as well as make a little shelf for my black stone

 

I bought a 2020 TRD Pro 6MT

 

For the same price they’re asking for that 2015, mind you

 

Because 2nd gens are better..

 

Actual facts. I like the creature comforts and features of the third gen more but the second gen drove way better stock for stock.

 

No longer. I’m done with being a car guy.

And I’m a firm believer in if a vehicle is available from the factory in stick, that’s the only way it should be bought.

 

Alright I’m tired of people wasting my time expressing interest in this thing then ghosting me. I ordered the parts to get the truck fixed. New hood on the way, new trans output gaskets, when that’s fixed I’ll get the windshield changed out.

 

If you lived closer, I'd help with the exhaust.

 

Nooooooooowwww we're talking

 

Sooooo discovered something. My tcase adapter bolts backed out of the transmission, dumping all the fluid. May not have even pushed a seal out at all. 454 was kind enough to take a look at this thing for me again, he’s gonna squeeze me in sometime in November to see what happened up there. Good news is, this thing will be running, driving, new hood, and new windshield by the end of November hopefully. And also means the price of this truck goes up. Any suggestions on price? I’m thinking 45k???


Also waiting to get my 3rd gen and my raptor on the 454 schedule, both of them need fender mods.

 

Hmmm, hate to be the bearer of bad news but it’s in your blood… And don’t worry most of us have been there before. Projects are a love hate relationship…

 

the raptor is the wife’s truck, so I think I get a pass there

and my new 285/75/16 KO3’s rub. I didn’t think 32.8’s rubbed on these trucks but I guess I was wrong. And I’m not buying another set of tires when it’s a couple hundred bucks to pay a professional to trim the inner fenders and make it look really really good.

You’re right, this shit is in my blood, but I’ll get my fix helping buddies out. I threw a set of king’s on my buddies GX550 OT+ the other night. Also king was a little retarded on that, they did their development on the LC250, which doesn’t have EKDSS so the resi brackets interfere hardcore. Waiting for them to send out the revised parts.

 

@Pittsy you still have that 3rd brake light / dust light for sale ?

 

The 3d printed one? I think so, I’ll have to see if it’s still in my garage.

 

Yeah that’s the one I was picturing.
Pm me if you still got it, maybe be interested in it
