The stock fog lights left existing mounting holes in the bumper, so I attached the light bar pods to the existing holes and got wiring harness for them to work with my light bar. I did a video on the light bar pods called "LED Light Bar Pods in Bumper for 00-03 Toyota Tundra" a while back if you wanna see how I did it.
Going down a steep hill while engine braking maybe caused a oil starvation in one of the cylinders, but won’t know till I get into the engine. In terms of the rebuild I may put some goodies in there cause I want to supercharge it one day!
@@totheextremeI would at least put forged connecting rods in there if you are thinking about any boost I have an 02 AC tundra myself and I’m thinking about hopping up a junkyard engine then boosting it
We are going to take out the engine and do a rebuild sometime this fall or winter. Likely rod knock or a spun rod bearing, but we will do a video on the whole process, so stay tuned for more tundra content!! We may also put some forged pistons and rods while we are in the engine, depending on price, so that a TRD Supercharger can reliably be put on without fear of just blowing the engine again.
@@totheextremewas the intake a reason it got blown out or am in incorrect I firstly wanna intake it and then in the future super charge it like yourself but I need more info on that bro
To start off your tundra has chrome front bumper means 231 HP and 4 speed auto my 06 4x4 TRD has 272 HP 5 speed auto with k an n air and 3 inch 2xhaust 275r 16 tires almost 20mpg at 65 mph over 5000ft elevation older tundras come with 145 16 so bigger tires lower gas milage btw had 02 li.ited 4x4 ext cab no way would keep up with my 06 250,000 Miles GBA and drive all over rural neved best pu I ever owned
this era of trucks were unbreakable and the best era
I like your content man! Keep it up. Sorry about the engine issues thats gotta suck especially being a toyota
Thank you for the support man! This engine rebuild will be just another opportunity to learn (expensive way to learn).
@@totheextreme I hear ya! I’ve had my fair share of expensive learning opportunities lol
How did you mount the fog lights on there? Looks sick 🤙

Why do you think the engine blew up? And are you going to rebuild with all stock stuff or maybe put some goodies in there?

@@ethanblack6852 Yeah I was just looking at those and they are not to terribly expensive. Might have to get them.
@@totheextremeI have one rn with around same miles 230k-300k miles on it is it smart to put a intake in it bro
What’s the year and mileage on the beauty now?
It’s a 2001 with around 232k miles on it as of now
What happened to the engine? What's the update on it? V8 or v6?

Hay man have you ever changed you lower ball joints or timing belt and if you have how many miles were you at ?
200000 miles for the timing belt, but we got the truck at 190k miles and never did the ball joints.
Hopefully it is just the waterpump coming apart
