  • Here is a intro video to my 1st Gen Tundra Prerunner Build Series. In this video I show where the build is at now, and the current parts that I am running. I also explain my future plans for the truck. The next part of the build series (part 1) will be the installation of a Camburg Long Tavel Kit, so stay tuned!

    Bought my grandpas 05 tundra and it has 157k miles and runs perfectly and has amazing power and decent speed. I have mine in all white with a high rise canopy, leveling kit, some pretty aggressive tires I forgot what size but man I love the thing I try to keep care of it as best as I can although it used to be stored in a garage and now it stays outside which I’d rather have it in a dry spot but beggers can’t be choosers

      I agree these are the perfect truck size. There are a little bigger than the Tundra's but with a V8. ! I have two trucks a full size and the Tundra and I prefer my first Gen for most things. Also, my first Gen can do everything, and more than my first full-size truck.

    Awesome truck! I have an 05 limited crew cab with 210k miles and I love it (other than the time it broke a ball joint). I want to replace the radio/cd player, but my speakers are all shot so I need to replace those first or do it all at once, I guess. How hard is it to do the speakers yourself? Or would it be worth it to have someone else do it for me? I wouldn’t be adding a subwoofer or anything.

Since your swapping to a full travel Camburg would you be interested in selling the mid travel your taking off? Did you also flash the truck with intake a shorty header setup?... thanks!

    Awesome truck man. I have an 02 and now have the bilstein 5100s on the very top notch per your advice 👍I want ko2 tires as well but dont want to trim. I was thinking about 275/70/r17 , but would 285/70 rub at all without spacing the wheels?

    • @mikefrench316
      @mikefrench316  6 років тому +1

      Rick Guell- I use to have the Bilstein 5100's up front with a 285/70/17 and had no rubbing after doing some very minor trimming. The 285's look great on the 1st Gen's 👌

    • @RickG13
      @RickG13 6 років тому +1

      Mike French any issues on the transmission or anywhere else that may come up from 285/70/17s ? Is that to the point to where o would need to re gear anything because of the extra weight of the tires and wheels?

    • @mikefrench316
      @mikefrench316  6 років тому +1

      Rick Guell- I ran the 285/70/17's for 6 years and had no issues with the drive terrain. Toyota builds their trucks very well, so the 285 tire does not necessarily require any modifications to the drive terrain (like re-gearing). If you plan to do any real offroading (like driving in sand ect.) Then you should get an aftermarket trans cooler with a fan. I would say that re-gearing the rear end is only essential if you run a 35inch tire. I haven't re-geared mine yet, but I will before I do any crazy offroading.

    Nice dude. Why did you go with the shorty headers instead of LT's? I've always wanted to build one of these access cab tundras. Maybe one day in the future, it's on my long list of vehicle builds.

      dethmaskDEVINE- JBA only sells the C.A. smog certified headers in the Shorty version. I would have rather ran the long tubes forsure, but swapping out the headers every 2 years to pass smog would have been a bitch. I hate all of California's B.S. laws 👎

      Mike French oh ok. Yeah that sounds like a pain. Were these hard to install?

      dethmaskDEVINE - They are difficult to install (took me 4hrs in total to get the old headers off & install the JBA's) but nothing that a decent mechanic can't do. I did have to make a custom 17mm socket wrench to tighten one of the JBA header bolts on the passenger side.

      ​@@mikefrench316 Now can you put the headers on and not have a check engine light on? ive heard that if you do you will be stuck with it

      @@punkboy52 I have never had a check engine light on because of the headers. I did purchase JBA headers though, not some Chinese crap....
