Trailscape's 06 Tundra

[trailscape]

I'll probably post up an ad later, but I have this 40" Baja Designs S8 that I decided not to use. If anyone's interested.

I looked at the G57 a long time ago, but I asked Deaver and they didn't recommend it for carrying weight in the back. I think they are meant more as a stock ride improvement.

I'll try and get a picture of the grill I have in mind. I put it aside at the moment to work on some interior mods.

They are 100% a "prerunner pack" and much too soft for any load without bags.

Huh.. Can't seem to upload images today.

Anyway.. Well, I was hoping to install the steering wheel audio/phone controls today, but the wheel I ordered turns out to be the wrong shade of tan.
I did test fit the controls on my current wheel. They fit and plug right in to the spiral cable, but I still need to find a different airbag.

I finally upgraded my stereo. I'd been using a Pioneer X930BT since 2011. Installed a Kenwood DMX906S today. Wireless carplay.. Night and day.

How difficult was the disassembly?

Still in the works, but here’s a preview.

I only removed the airbag today, which is really easy. Disconnect battery, one torx screw on each side of the steering wheel, pop up the tabs on the back of the bag and remove the connectors. If you remove the remaining nut from the steering wheel usually you can pull it straight off.

Do you know what wheels interchange with the stock tundra one?

Well... I thought I did, but my growing collection tells me otherwise. The 07 Sienna wheel I got looks identical, except the color is a different shade. I guess there's differences in tan, oak, fawn, sandalwood and whatever else they call it.

eBay is awful for trying to find interior parts. Tan parts usually look gray in pictures while gray parts look tan.

I have another one that was supposedly from an 02 Tacoma, but it doesn't come close.

Something in the works!

I grabbed a set of oem running boards from Craigslist recently, but I can't figure out how these rear brackets are suppose to go?

Anyone?

 

[trailscape]

Parts a plenty...

Falling a bit behind here, but I got the new Brute Force bumper in place!

I need to get some updated pictures as I painted the gap between the bumper and topper and also the outside of those wheel wells you see now with some rustoleum bed liner spray.

My only complaint... Between the bumper and new springs, the truck is a ********** to climb in and out of.

I finally got out for a weekend camping trip. Ran into a mice problem.. They were climbing in and out of everything through the night. Mouse poop all over.

They even ate my damn tea lights.. Metal and all! Fortunately, food was secure and I only found nibble marks on the plastic.




Keeping watch... She was not amused through the night as mice were crawling under the tent.


Used two stacked wolf pack boxes to get in and out of the truck.

Like the bumper! Updated pics after painting would be nice.

i hate mice. I spent many hours cleaning out a classic car from all the damage they caused. And now to remedy that damage, it's going to cost me close to $1K. Filthy creatures.
