What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I detailed mine. Chemical Guys Black Light sealant after a nice long bath with a foam cannon.







Oh, and hi.

 

had it for 4 months no issues love it

 

Cover tape removed. Thank you @rrentrop for the decals. Go Irish!!!!

 

So after spending forever and a half trying to drill holes in my frame to finish mounting my rock sliders, I decided to pull out the big guns and go town to whoop some frame ass.

 

Are you using a hammer drill. That is the ticket. Slower rpm's too. If you have not done so take a center punch and a big hammer and punch a pilot point to help guide the drill. Would help to use a spray bottle with any kind of oil on the drill point. Position yourself under the drill and use body weight to keep solid pressure on it. Will never get through just using your arm strength.

 

Boy how the pile of factory parts just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Factory bumper is not on there because it is on the truck while my C4 bumper gets powder coated hopefully if the rain lets up it will be finished Friday. The I'll have to mount the 12k winch, fog lights, ditch lights, and 20" light bar. I still need to buy the rear fender flares @McNeilRacingInc and the the rear high clearance bumper from c4, the bed cage with pass through bypass shocks, the tire rack, and the rest of my skid plates from RCI...but I promised I'd wait to purchase more stuff after the truck came back from Baja Kits for 6 months. Damn promises

 

Thanks for the advice, duly noted. I got the holes drilled now, the tungsten carbide bit made short work of the frame.

 

Mind sharing how you took off those panels? Did you buy the color from Toyota or somewhere else? How's it match? Looks good btw.

 

I love your truck, but as a Purdue grad I am obligated to inform you that you ruined your headlights

 

Saw someone do this a few (maybe hundred) pages back. Goodbye warnings, hello patches!

 

^^^THIS

 

I did it to in matching blue for my truck. Pretty simple. Start at the middle (instrument cluster) and work out. Just pull it straight out with you fingers it's held on by little clips. Then there is a half dozen baby screws that hold the vents on to the trim piece

 

Like hell he did! Go Irish!!!

 

Surprised "somebody" doesn't have "14" covers on their side marker lights yet.

 

do you have part numbers for everything?!

 

How are you liking your SST Pros? I'm between those and the KO2s.

 

Added the beat-sonic radio adapter. Now my radio can mirror what is on my phone. Also allows me to type gps address while truck is in motion

 

How do you like it?

 

I live in Raleigh, NC and my renewal is $366.96 due in October. Got the truck in January.

 

I want your dash in my truck. now would you have a link to the rattle can you used for the BBP?
