What have you done to your 100 Series this week? (41 Viewers)

Dialed in my stereo install. Figuring out the wire harness (I bought the direct connector and repinned) was almost as hard as running the dang backup camera wires. Still need to install the trim plate securely, but all works well. Stero direct to factory amp, with stock speakers. The camera is mounted inside on the rear hatch trim panel, so it looks over the 3 bike rack I have.

Got the Scangauge pretty spot on matched to the factory green color, need to work on the stereo color tone, but not a bad match.

Changed spark plugs. Two extension and a swivel is a must!

Going to change spark plugs and coil pack this weekend. Anyone know the part number for the bolts that hold the coil packs in? Mine look like rusted sunflowers.

 

[Cleric Duran]

Sorry, I don't know the part number but I just did mine today and they are a 10mm. To do the driver side you will need 2 different size extentions and a swivel to do the job

 

[trdcorolla]

I think they are part number 90080-11590

LED high beam upgrade- both worked but seemed dim. Passenger side took 30 seconds; driver’s side took 30 minutes. Tight fit and big hands. Pair for less than 1 Silverstar at Wally World. AHC fluid arrived, so flush will come come soon. Good price, pic shows contact info and MUD discount. Bought and received in 3 days. LED fog lights ordered and SHOULD go in easier. Things coming in for upcoming 5 week trip through AZ and UT. Now, if only the rain would stop...

I used to own a 2007 tundra, and kept the steelies. but they have been outside for a couple of years...they should be ok right?

I plan on cleaning them up of rust and painting them black. slapping some 285/65r18 Atturos on them this weekend.

Which LED fogs did you go with?

Front and rear sway bar links finished at 2am. Welds are strong, but ugly. Almost pulled the trigger on a Trail Taylor set, but could cough up the $. Can't wait to feel them on the truck.

Yes, I used the bent orange pitted tubing you see. Found it out back underwater in a scrap bin. Perfect fit. Worked inside and out to clean fresh metal.

 

[changingground]

Where did your source your bushings for this sway link project, if you don't mind my asking?

 

[a31gun]

@changingground
Fronts links are the best O'Reilly's could order. I pressed out lower rubber before welding. I may use energy suspension bushings on the uppers instead of the import direct rubber.

Rear links I used Energy Suspension kit shown for the upper bushing. Lower rear are Siberian Bushings to be poly from fleebay. Good reviews on these from pirate 4x4.

OME 2863s couldn't take the added weight of the bumper. Swapped in 2864s and she sitting right where I want her. 19 inches to the bottom of the hitch, about 3 inch total lift

I have been slowly "updating" my truck to look like yours (complete with the dents and scratches) minus all the expensive upgrades like bumpers and rack and drawers
