What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

If I understand you correctly you tapped a spare fuse block position and added a fuse?

 

I don't get your question. What do you mean is the nose up now?
Yeah, it's "up" you can see in the photos that the bilsteins raised the front end

 

Ok....I said yesterday that I was done for a while....but now IRDK!......

 

Holding up and looks like the day i sprayed it. Have washed it a couple times and holding up great. I almost bought new black rear bumper surrounds for $200/pr and decided to save money .. this took 1 can of plastidip at a price of $5.99 and about 3hrs of my time

 

is that the number? I want to get some but I can't find those online

 

Awesome thanks for the info!

 

Sorry just wondering if front sits higher than rear since the install

 

Body colored dash trim! Nice job!

 

@WestGa42 Thank you!

 

Where did you get that paint?

 

With icon 2.5" up front and dakars 2.5" in back.

 

Lowes. RUST-OLEUM Gloss Protective Enamel in "Gloss Khaki". http://www.lowes.com/pd/Rust-Oleum-...Spray-Paint-Actual-Net-Contents-12-oz/3729715

its a 99% match to the quicksand and only about $4 a can. Awesome find

 

Bump

 

I can't speak to the 285's, since I'm not running them, but the alignment shop should be able to move those wheels far enough forward to avoid the CMC and still fall within the aforementioned alignment specs. First two alignment shops I visited acted like they couldn't move the wheel forward via the the cam adjustments. I had terrible rubbing with the current 275 70 17 set up I'm running and their answer was the CMC... Complete BS! Thanks to the TacomaWorld community, I was able to get informed.

Adding caster through the LCA moves the wheel forward, while adding caster to the UCA (specific to the adjustability of the SPC) will move the wheel rearward towards the cab.

If you want to add more positive caster(wheel forward), you would rotate the front cam “shorter” and the rear cam “longer.” If you want to reduce caster (not sure why anyone would do that…but whatever), you would rotate the front cam “longer” and the rear cam “shorter.”

Again, changes in camber and Caster will then be adjusted through the UCA after the caster has been maxed out to move the wheel forward through the LCA.

Hope this helps.

 

:c

 

Ouch if you're gonna replace...i say wait for trd pro tail lights just my thought....haha

 

I collected the pieces and used some epoxy for now might get those trd pro ones now haha good suggestion

 

How did it break?

 

Yup just found one that was hot (Ig1 No2), and one that is hot when dash lights come on (Panel)

Had to get mini fuses in same amperage for the ones I took out since they are micro and my add-a-circuit is for the mini's. Might switch to micro later so all fuses are the same.
