What’s the update on the tundra ?
I wouldnt live up there or buy any veheicle from anywhere up north. Its ridiculous.
Hi Mustie those centre caps in Canada are 200.00 each Canadian taxes in alone, I have an 03 tacoma with 412000 km and still runs strong, with original alternator, you got a deal with that Tundra.
Can't go wrong with a Toyota. Easy to fix those frames.
Love your videos and can due approach to everything. I also have the exact truck, but a 2005 with 180,000 miles. You even got new tire sensors since the tire led was not blinking.
GOOD LUCK with the new wheels.
You would get 10 grand for that in Nova Scotia
Score
Great deal. The Grey Ghost.

Try the Half a orange with baking soda on it for the headlights.
Mustie what state are you located in ?
Name : Rusty one other word tetanus lol naw man . Kidding great deal. Hi from crazy California 👋
This thing is too modern
The Gray Ghost . I know, it's silver 🙂
I got an entire new 3rd member from Randy's ring and pinion. It was geared lower (for my 33' tires) AND it had a locking rear as opposed to the limited slip that came stock. They also provided me with the friction additive for the gear oil and matching gearset for the front dif. Pricing was fair. Reach out to them. Good guys. Online of course
Where are the safety wires for the tie down chains!
Did you ask the previous owner about the back panel cover because if he has the tracks on that truck would think he has the tunnel cover for it or did he put it on his new 2008 Toyota but you would still think you would need that tracks.
Love your videos, never trust your life to a jack.
I like you channel but man you are a pack rat
Always worries me when someone spends the money for the timing chain,new exhaust and tires plus a full tank of gas??? What arent they telling u?
Nice truck even with the little dings but I kinda wonder what the heck did he do to the tailgate LOL but I almost bought a truck like that and never thought about looking at the frame I thought that was mainly a jeep thing rusting out
Toyota tundra not a bad truck usually from a guy who worked for a toyota dealership in Denver over ten years you wont hear nothing bad from me and easy to find new and used parts
Had an 06 loved it called it the Goldilocks of trucks.
In this Vidio I noticed a spare tire cover against the house. What kind of shape is it in? Will it cover a 235/75/25 wheel & tire? Is it all metal or pvc? ( plastic) I' be been looking for another since lost one off back of motor home some where in Iowa.years ago. Would you consider sale of it, & how much? I am in western N.C

I'd love to do stuff like that but code enforcement would fine me .

killer deal yet again!!! i hate youðŸ˜
THE SILVER GOOSE MIGHT BE A GOOD. NAME ? I THINK SO
Yes, we lost Diesel Tech Ron, we don't need to loose you.
new acquisition
So for your odd comment of today. I actually listen/watch your videos while working (I'm a software engineer) as it helps me concentrate. I don't really have an explanation for it… Just know that some random guy in The Netherlands is more productive because of your musings on wrenching.
Toyota, ales is moglich.
Nice
Please buckle up Mustie. If not for your sake then for ours – we don't want to lose you! Cheers
Just change the ring and pinion new bearings new seals it's not that difficult
Hi buddy, love your vids. I live in south Norway and we have lots of salt spred on the roads in the winter time. Rust is an issue here as well. But we treat our veichles with a Valvoline product called Tectyl. Different products for different use. Thin lubricant for the inside of frames, rockers and so on. Thick stuff to protect the outside of the undercarridge, wheelwells and so on. I'm surprised to see there's no coating at all of cars in " the rust belt". Your frame damage does not look too bad from the outside, but it's what you don't see that worries me. These frames rot out from the inside. No coating what so ever, not even paint! So be aware! I have welded a few of these frames and you'll be surprised what you'll find when you cut them open. The steel is of very poor quality. That's why Toyota replace them without giving you too much problems. Rear of front wheels and lowest points where water is trapped are known rust spots on these trucks.
Other than that I guess they are ok..
Awesome
Look up First Gen Tundras on Facebook! Lots of helpful guys in there including people that work at dealerships. I have a 2001 AC and get help and ideas from there when I'm stuck.
Dont trust at a hydraulic jack-screw! Please!
Nice score
where are your axle stands ?
Make it a real truck stuff a ford 9" under it. You could probably find one in the bottom of a lake and it wouldn't be rusted out maybe the cover but you puck that up for a few bucks. My wife's ranger has an 8.5. Other than that you did good.
Darrin, have you ever had a random misfire issue on any of your Tundras? left bank, very random, not spark plugs or coil packs
Did you know that Toyota has a recall on many truck frames and will replace them for free? Visit your local Toyota dealer and have them take a look. Even once they spray it, I think you can have it checked every 2 years or so. Worth looking into.
Think 'merican!
New York is bad for rust
I cant stop binge watching your videos .I have so much lawn mowers to sort for this addiction lol
just pull the rear end pumpkin out and replace the pinion bearings 2 bearings a crush washer and a seal any bearing house sells the bearings
