TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

Anyone have a link to a 30k maintenance? Im getting ready to do mine and need to know what to order, but things seem to be so scattered around on the site.

 

Ebay/Amazon 4D Phillips 5W LED diodes. Self tapping screw straight into crash cans with supplied mounts. Will see how they hold up, may replace mounting with well/jack nuts. May also need to aim higher? Running Phillips Ultinon LEDS for HL/Fog.

I'm really digging this I know I'm not a trd pro ( my vin number says I am and registration.. I think all 15s that are 4wd are called them) i am looking at the trd wheels really want them just not sure the black or the graphite ones.. Whats the off set/ back spacing of them ?

 

So much for my ramblings above! I ended up trading the Baja in on a 2016 OR in MGM after all. I went back to the one sane dealer here several times to look, talk numbers, and test drive it again (and again). Ultimately the 3rd Gen really grew on me, the color choice and interior makes me happy, and the offer from the dealer on my trade and the price of the new truck OTD sealed the deal for me. I ended up with the auto after all. I did get a chance to drive the manual, but its performance over the auto didn't blow me away and the auto will be easier for my wife to drive also.

I will definitely miss my Baja, but...I can't wait to turn this 3rd Gen into my version of a Baja Taco. Maybe when I get rich (probably never), I will go back and buy another used Baja or Pro 2nd Gen to add to the stable. Thanks all for past comments and suggestions...hope you don't mind if I continue to hang out in this thread!

 

Good for you man!!!!....pics!!

 

Agreed, congrats! No hard feelings from this Baja owner.

 

Thanks! I'll post some up after I take delivery, which should be Friday or Saturday this week. Truck is still at the port in Florida.

 

Thanks!

 

Cool......off topic, but you should enjoy my pic. Look at the sign on Wrigley Field.........it was an AWESOME show

 

That rocks! I saw them in DC last summer when they opened their US tour. It was amazing and they played for about 2 1/2 hours!

 

Yeah our show was in late August. They played about 2&1/2 as well. Wrigley has become a pretty cool concert venue over the last few years

 

happy holidays

 

What type of lightbar did you get and can you please send or post more detailed pics of install, materials used, etc. Would like to do the same to mine, moved plate for clearance of light and trying to find best way to mount. Thanks.

 

Rough country makes brackets specifically for the LED grill bar light for the Tacoma. The mount up to factory bolts. They are a direct fit, and about $50 on their website. They come with all needed hardware. It was plug-and-play. You will need a 30 inch lightbar that will mount in the grill.

 

Thanks, checked it out, but I wanted to mount like 99GC8, behind grill slots without cutting or modification.

 

Oh gotcha, understood.

just an fyi, the grey portion from which you would remove (cut away) the mesh from is only affixed to the bumper. It may look like one piece, but it is two pieces. The piece can be re-ordered and put back to stock at anytime, if you were to decide to remove the light bar and return to the stock look. putting the light bar behind the mesh and receded portion of the bumper may hinder a large portion of available light.

 

the closer to the front, the more light it will cast.

 

Here is a pic of one of my Stealth, behind the grill mounts. Dual row LED from Cali Raised LED. This is just the LED.
