What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Go light. Remote controlled spot light

 

Added roof rack.

 

OH, that sounds interesting.

 

TRD Sema wheels and 265/70/17 Toyo Open Country AT II's ordered tonight. Pics to follow as now I must patiently wait!

 

That's exactly what it is supposed to do. Go climb a mountain in your truck and let off the gas when all you can see is the sky. You'll appreciate that feature!

 

Does anyone know if I'm likely to have rubbing issues at stock lift with 17 X8.5 6-139.70 -6 size wheels? Probably going to do some 265/65r17s or 275/65r17s. The tire calculator for the 265/65/r17s say they're almost the exact same diameter, the 275s are 0.6" larger [diameter] and 1.18" wider.

I'm looking at these wheels:

Replaced softopper with undercover elite. Gonna add front runner rack to cover and have a roof rack for bikes that I can reach!
Softopper is for sale. 3 months old. Perfect. Gray. $500. Local pickup only Middle tn.

 

How much for the grill? I want one but with the Tacoma portion color matched

 

I think your inside clearance is no problem. Mine stick out 1" past stock which is flush with side of fender on 8" wheels with +10 offset. I am now looking at 18 or 20 x 8.5 with +10 that will be 1.25" farther than stock. Yours will stick out 1.9" more than stock. I think I would look for a +6 to +10 offset to be safe. Most wheels offer different offsets. This is based on stock suspension. Remember the more - offset the farther they stick out.

 

Thanks for the inspiration guys. Here's mine.

Can we see some more views of your undercover elite!

 

So I haven't added anything in a week or so, but just getting a chance to post now. Decided to not lift my truck and go with 245/70R17 Duratracs. Little narrower than stock but that's good in the snow, and they are snow rated and can run 12 months a year. They are unreal. Make the truck look so much better and are really good in town. Good off road except for a few extra rocks now and then. Love them. Also rigged up a few bolts through the bottom of the bed into my Dewalt tool box to secure it to the bed so it doesn't slide around. Only takes a few minutes to remove if I really want, but that's not 95% of the time. Looks so much cleaner and is rarely in the way. Just so happens tonight I did take it out to rig up a tent in the bed of the truck for a fishing trip tomorrow night.

 

What is that small plug looking thing on your front bumper by your left yellow fog light? I've seen it before on other sport models. Fill me in?

 

Canada for sure lol. It's a block heater plug.

 

Thanks, it works really well.

Swapped out my Toytec BOSS 2.0 setup for an Icon stage 4. Glad to be back with Icon. The Toytecs were fine but the damping and travel of the Icons beat the Toytecs by a long shot. Plus, I got a killer deal from Autoanything (believe it or not).


Toytecs out....


Icons in...

 

Are you selling the Toytec setup?
