What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So far, so good. The front settled about a half inch so I'm sitting at about 2" front, 2.5" rear, which is fine since when I put my tent and other cargo on the bed rack it evens out

 

No cutting, but I do have a but of rubbing. Now that the front has settled, I may raise it up a 1/2 inch and go with a full deaver pack in the rear. It only runs at full lock/compression so I rarely notice it unless I'm out on the trail. I also have the cmc plates I need to install but it's been hot and I've been lazy. Beer tastes too damn good to work in the heat!

 

Cheers! Minimal rubbing at full lock/compression

 

Hi, so Im new here and I was just wondering if anyone knows how the back spacing and the offset will fit on the 2016 taco? Sorry if it's in the wrong thread.

 

Here is a good site. My stock wheels are 17 x 7.5 +30 offset and changing to 17 x 8 +10 offset. So the same tire will have more inside clearance and poke out farther for a wider stance.

Does anyone know if 2nd gen and 3rd are using the same AAL?

 

Not the best angle but best I could get with it parked in the in laws drive...

 

Had its first scheduled service today, and also debadged. Came out looking clean.

 

Nothing huge, just added a D-Ring hitch insert with a locking pin I picked up autozone. Not sure if anyone else has run into this or maybe if it's a problem I ran into with just this brand of locking pin, but I had to get the class V pin since when I tried the class IV, the locking mechanism was about 1 mm to shallow to fully engage when put through the hitch.

Not a big deal, class V just has a bit of travel / play in it.

 

DUDE. Dude....dude that light bar is sick. I'm about to get the 32" double stacked bar that people are putting under the grill insert, which looks really stealthy, but yours is the first roof mounted one that I don't feel looks unnecessarily tall or bulky. Not sure if you already posted details about process / parts, but I'd love to hear what total cost was.

Thing I like about the grill mounted is that running the harness for it would be considerably easier, and I wouldn't need to worry about the mounts messing up my roof...

 

Today I finally got some much needed dirt on the tires and possibly some custom pin stripes I also came across my truck's 2WD twin when airing back up


TT

 

Nice rims. Refreshing from the typical rim I see.

 

Installed my OEMaudio+ Refrence 450Q. Sounds a hell of a lot better than the factory non JBL did.

 

I definitely didn't try that first...

See jokes on you. That's the same as having a slip clutch on a drill. Its SUPPOSED to come off under a certain amount of weight...safety feature, ya that's it, it's for safety!

 

Does that just bolt into the stock slid spots? No welding? Would love to pick it up if it's something I could knock out myself.

 

What did you use to strip it first? I have some great auto soap, a clay bar, wax and sealant, but wasn't sure if there was a proper way of stripping before doing everything else.

 

Yep I know I did the same thing

 

Don't believe RAD is making the skid plate anymore. Search for "RAD Industries grille" on here and you should be able to get more info.

 

Plugged the holes on the LCAs to stop the howl and added the flags:
