My little brother was in town this weekend and came with me to the monument show. He brought his new Toyota Tundra and a lift kit that he wanted to install. I, being a former redneck mechanic by trade have done numerous lifts and whatnot. So it was a little 2.25" leveling kit that he had bought for it. It was basically just spacers that went between the front struts and their saddle on the frame to pick the nose of the truck up a little. Also he did a sweet headlight mod that involved baking the headlight inserts in the oven!

Maroon shirt, Maroon truck, and freshly baked headlights? There is a joke here dammitt.......

^ lol! Let us know when you come up with it Paul

Let's see some pics of it before and after the leveling kit. I'm probably going to get a Tundra in the next year or so...

I've contemplated about baking my headlights before. Never happened though! Always seemed pretty scary, since new headlights are freakin' expensive!

Maybe if you could bake the ranger in a big ass oven, it will turn into a tundra....


Whoo I can sleep well tonight.

I'm pretty sure that if I baked the Ranger in a big oven all it would turn into is a cooked turd... as opposed to the raw one it is now, lol

yeah my bro said that he got a little carried away with the baking process and burnt one little corner of the light assembly.

HaHa former redneck is that like born again redneck

leave it to an Aggie to put new truck lights in an oven ( easy bake oven )

I liked the old ones better

So whats the deal with baking them in the oven? does it make the chrome flake off?

I wondered myself ... you bake it to get the glue soft so that you can separate the lens cover. Then you can do what ever ... change the light style for example to the ring type lights or whatever. that's what i found on "the internets"
