I just got the speed calibration unit in from Superlift. A special thanks to Victor Camperi from Findlay Toyota for the instructions on the install for my 06 DC.
unit placed in the glove box for easy access. The wife and I just got back from a cruise on the highway and it is perfectly...
Deaver springs are in. 1.5" of lift with 400lbs extra capacity. I LOVE the ride of this truck with the OME/Deaver combo. Air bags are at 5psi. I also did a u-bolt flip at the same time as I had an extra set of hardware lying around. Measurements are from the ground to the wheel well...
You won't have the same load on the york as you would with a winch so the draw should be much less. It is also inefficient to go from DC-AC. The 500+ watts of the inverter is going to pull 50amps or so? Not sure you're any better off. Actually, I don't think 1/4hp will be enough to power the...
Front ground to the top of the fender well started at 34", turned into 37.75" with bilsteins (second from highest setting) and 255/85R16 and went to 38.75 with OME 886 and Bilsteins at lowest setting
Here's an old picture with the stock springs and bilsteins. Not much noticeable difference in...
Not sure what I like more, the poly bushings on the steering or the OME coils. Both improved the truck DRASTICALLY. I went up over an inch in the front which is OK as the 255 rubbed a little under compression. The steering is tight and controlled. This truck is finally turning into what...
New suspension for the Tundra. Well new to me. Used coils up front and new in the rear. I am going to use my Bilsteins set to the lowest level. I should have them in by the end of the day. I am waiting on some greasable bolts before I install the rears.
OME 886 coil on the left, OEM coil on...
Decent price, maybe a bit high, but it sounds very clean. The Mother's Back to Black has worked well for us as well. Odd about the grills as the ones in my SR5 TRD are plastic and integrated into the door panel??
Our truck has over 220000km and no issues with engine or transmission, we are...
Trailer worked great. Fridge lasted for the four days we where gone. I will do a longer test now that I am at home.
if you ever get the chance to visit western Alberta, it is fantastic country:
Cresent Falls:
hehe Thanks!
I didn't get as far as I wanted to on the install. The battery trays bolt downs interfered with the trailer tongue. Ever have one of those 20 min jobs take three hours? This was it. I had to get the wife to hold the inside nuts as I turned the ones under the box. Still don't...
Thanks!
The trailer is pulling double duty, getting pulled behind the Tundra is not it's priority. The tires on the trailer are 36" tall and won't fit on the truck (all though I would like that, the wife would KILL me!!) The nice thing is the tundra spare fits on the trailer. I love the...
Sorry I am throwing this in here, did a few mods to the trailer. The front strut is on the out side of the trailer and rear one is inside the box. This was to retain the tailgate and not run into interference when opening it.
If anybody wants to learn how to change split rims, come on over...
Wheeling in Sask with a light truck/buggy when the ground was frozen. All we needed was a pry bar to pound into the ground to anchor his truck, but we didn't have it. He didn't have the weight to pull me back and slid with the winch. Took off to the nearest farm to borrow a tractor and came...
I am now on the look out out for an air compressor. I have a Extreme Aire in the land Cruiser so I will most likely stick with that again and install a permanent unit in the tundra. I like the idea of adj the air bags from in the cab so I may look at a solution for that as well.
Drivers side...
Thanks for the fuelly link. I only have one partial fill on there but it does appear that all the maintenance helped.
I got the air bags installed last night and my first impression are that they are VERY impressive. 10 lbs of air brought the truck up 1.5" telling me that the rear springs are...
It is actually a 10 plate. It is so efficient if you don't rev the diesel up to 1500rpm you will cool the engine right down.
I got it directly from the manufacture. SEC
