What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks fellas! You guys are always welcome! I can't promise fancy... I never knew fancy, but good times and great drinks by a fire... Or next to the water with some reels is something I'm always ready for!!

 

- 17'' TRD Wheels
- 265/70/17 Nitto Terra Grappler tires
- Stock suspension
- ARE V series shell

 

This is all I have right now.

 

Mine are 17 x 8 6x139.7 with a 0 offset which means those 8.5 will be 1/4" closer but I think that 1/4" will break the bank all depending on wall size. I know there are guys on here with 9" wide.

 

I like the look also

 

Nice Bud!

 

Is vinyl wrap the same as plasti-dip spray!

 

Ditto! Discount Tire!

 

I bought these ones because even though they are bolt-on they say they are strong enough to support the weight of the truck using a high lift, and have shown many pictures of it: http://mobtownoffroad.com/2015/11/18/what-makes-moboff-bolt-on-sliders-the-best/

I ACTUALLY PUT SOME STUFF IN THE BED TODAY!!! I blame my trophy wife. She needed 10 bags of landscape bark. And...I removed the SnugTop decals from the rear window of the topper. And...adjusted the rear window latches on said SnugTop, so the right side would latch with the rest of the window. The best part...I got to drive the new 2016 Sport! Now, if only we could get a sunny weekend on the Front Range of the Rockies. Then I could go out to Pawnee and shoot some trap. Sheesh, what's with EVERY weekend snowing/raining/etc. LET IT GO, ALREADY, IT'S SPRING!!!

 

Thanks for that info!

 

Ok so I just picked up my tacoma from Temecula Valley Toyota. Let me tell ya this place is all about great service! So let's get to the details, the transmission fluid was 1/4 of a quart low. They are ordering a new carrier bearing for the driveshaft where the cross member holds the two parted driveline. Apparently it was leaking and they need the truck back to re-glue the hood.

 

Where do I buy these

 

Deaver Springs in Santa Ana will build a set based on your needs. I wanted a progressive set that could handle the weight of a camper shell filled with camping gear-firewood-rotopax fuel cells-fishing equip-ice chests-kayaks....
I used Deaver for my older Tacoma and they have held up great. They ride 2 to 2 1/2" high without any bed weight and after adding the weight they need a few weeks to settle down /soften up and level out. Then they are perfect. Deaver does a nice install and are good guys to work with. If future needs change they will adjust/rebuild the leaf springs as needed. I think they are the only shop that will build a custom set based on your weight hauling needs. Most other expo type springs are not built to the buyers exact needs, they are more of a cookie cutter, one size fits all set up (which is ok if they fit your weigh carrying needs). I will get more pics when I can, chores await....

 

For the BFG AT TA/KO2s I recently bought I went with Tire Buyer ($750 OTD). Discount Direct was great for Wildpeaks (which I ordered, then cancelled) but was more expensive for the 265/75R16s I put on my OR. The experience was very good with Tire Buyer, and the tires were ready to install the next day. Just another data point.

 

Try RCI. Btw, quality bolt on sliders are EASILY able to support the weight of your truck and can be just as strong as weld on if they're quality.

Sorry dude, that's not even a little true. Bolt on sliders can EASILY support the weight of the truck and are NOT the same as steps. Also any QUALITY bolt on sliders will be just as strong as weld.

 

This is great! What's the right answer?

 

Derped grill, instrument bezel and rear bumper side caps. Debadged and destickered.
