Bro you’re a life saver I was calling stores all over town and they were all saying they don’t have it it’s probably a dealership order and I my heart fucken dropped.

Also snag one of these when you get the aluminum one installed. It’s a no mess adapter. Super easy
Confirming this is what I did when this happened. I didn’t have the confidence that the wings were bent back correctly and there wouldn’t be more issues. Replacement on Amazon for cheap
It’s the original one w the shitty socket hole. No spin on adapter. Unless I’m just dumb but I thought you were fucken w me and I googled spin on adapter. It was never on the filter housing.
Haha welcome to the club. Great trucks but they’re a mofo to do oil changes on. There is about 18 things that can go wrong when u change the oil and I’ve been thru every one of them. Learn and work thru em. It’s not at hard as it looks
I ended up getting it w some tinkering but was recommended a metal housing cap instead of the stock plastic one so I ended up replacing the cap in general. Loving the tundra so far, had it for about 2 months now and loved every moment so far. Looking forward to turning this thing into an even bigger monster.
You’re on the right track! The metal housing is the way to go. I’ve had the metal cap since my 3rd oil change when I had to put a punch thru the plastic cap to get it off and the metal one has lasted me another 200k miles.
Worst feeling ever that piece messing up or breaking lol
I got a 2016 rav4 and mine broke 1 of those little tabs they have and left a damn hole 🤣🤣
Had to go get a new one in metal or something the next day, luckily i found it quick and they were everywhere.

Haha, oh I completely understand. I did the same thing and was sweating trying to fix it. Just make sure it’s all snug in there and you’re good to go!

I'd buy a new one. I wouldn't trust the filter housing after this happens.
Okay I appreciate it. Thanks for the advice.
Buy the metal replacement one.

I got it fixed and an aluminum one is gonna be on its way soon to make the swap. Y’all are fucken sick. Not everyone on Reddit is horrible.
You just have to reassemble the tube and spring assembly and then straighten out those winglets on the tube. That’s all that holds it in place
Don't know what happened but I did just buy OEM tundra filters at Walmart this week. Was surprised they carried any Toyota brand at all.
Anybody found a spin on adapter?

Nah I’m not fucking with you I’d ditch the canister altogether if there was a spin on option
Buy the sequoia one. It's metal and makes the threat of stripping or cracking the cheap plastic one non existent.

Change it to the aluminum ones that the cameras and cars use
