Been driving it to work this week, definitely noticed the difference with the bigger heavier tires on there. A little less get up and go, fuel economy took a dive as expected, so it’s whatever. Co-worker got bit by the Land Cruiser bug, and scooped up a pretty clean early 200 series.

Got in contact with @BenCC talking shop about the Make 19 V1 Fog Light Mounts, ended up getting the updated version with the new printing process. So much cleaner in my opinion. Got em installed on our Lauren Conrad Man Van today. Pretty stoked so far.

Became a grandfather this past December, so naturally I had to pick up this used 18 Tundra, to accommodate my granddaughter’s car seat.

Congrats, sir! I found myself with a significantly expanded role in the life of a 5 year old grandson, so we bought him a 100 Series for me to drive :cool:

Booster seat not included but we found one.

Congrats to you on that expanded role. Can’t wait to get those calls from my daughter to pickup my granddaughter, and take her for the day or more. Our 100 Series isn’t going anywhere, just needed the bigger crew max over my old 1st Gen Tundra.

So cute but also so tiny! My son was 10lbs when he was born and didn’t fit any of the newborn clothes we brought for him. Goes by so fast!
Time is definitely a thief, our little granddaughter was about a month early, spent about 3 weeks in the NICU, but she’s finally putting on some weight. Super stoked she’s turning that corner!

Not a whole lot going on. Got big booty Judy up in the air and knocked out greasing the U-joints and slip yokes. While I had her in the air noticed that imma probably need a skid for the fuel tank.

Greased up, took a 5 mile loop, and checked again.View attachment 2968819

Fuel tank skid not too bad, but might end up getting one sooner than later.

General inspection.

Old post and photo, but I just noticed that you might have had a coolant leak dripping down onto your driver's side cat (there are two coolant hoses above it that go to the rear heater core). Hope I'm wrong :D

Sun was out, so the 22 year old exhaust is out, new OEM unit is in. Nice and quiet for the first time in a while. New gaskets, hardware, and clamp as well, had to reuse the damper and shield, so we’ll see how that goes.

How does it drive, any difference? My '06 has 305K on the original muffler. No issues with it, but always curious what new breathing components might do!
