What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Lowrange offroad 3-1 leveling kit. 275/55r20 Toyo M/T 20 inch Fuel rims. Prolly gonna get some hate for the 20s but it's all good. HIDs and LED fog lights.

 

Close I live in Vegas. I have found that a lot of different are having issues with current anti theft methods for tail gates so I think I'll fab something up that is a little more stout than and pipe clamp or the master lock.

 

New Here. Where can I pick up those wheels from?

 

On my last Tacoma I used a hose clamp that basically did the same thing.

 

It does. That's why I had to trim mine

 

Thanks for including the wheel specs. I'm about as obsessed about finding that magic number that doesn't rub as those number 23 conspiracist. Also bad ass lift. I want pics! Lol

 

The front is dialed in around 2.5" lift with the rear 2.75" from the dakar. Its a little more rake than stock but balances out quiet well with around 200 lbs of gear in the bed.

 

Looks great! I think I might switch to Dakars next year. How do they ride? I know they'll be a little stiff still but I have a feeling they are smoother than the HS 3 add-a-leaf.

 

Not a fan of the 20's but damn it looks good all together. All I know about 20's is what my brother use to run on his tundra and damn they were expensive tires like 1.75x more than my 16"

 

Welcome and well they were a deal set up by @unchained5150. They were 700 delivered, but that deal is over. If you go to your local Toyota Dealership and BS them about another Toyota Dealership in the area offering them for 700, they should price match. They are the TRD pro rims that come on 4Runners. Either come in Matte black or a Grey Matte color.

 

Mostly went with a full dakar leaf pack because I was to lazy to disassemble the leafs myself. Just easier to stick the whole leaf in at once. The dakars are stiffer but not by much with no load. With around 150-200 lb bed load they are pretty smooth. Haven't been able to take the truck off road going fast but I've hit a few speed bumps at 40 mph and they are pretty smooth with the fox shocks combo.

 

Wow, I hit a speed bump at 40 and I think my rear end would bounce off the road. Lol

 

I should mention they weren't straight on hits, more like 10 degree hits at 40 mph lol.

 

Damn that's a good looking truck.

 

No scoop will give you dramatic performance gains. as for the water all you would have to do is make a drain in the air box, problem solved

 

No hate man! 20's look real good on these trucks.
Cant all be rollin on the same setup, that'd be boring.
If i had money to burn i'd have 20's for the city and 17's for the country.
Looks good!!

 

That's a little better but still impressive. When I hit series of bumps and it starts to get rough I just tell the wife that Trudy is just skipping because she's happy.

I have gone through some semi rough stuff (we don't have mountains, we have ravines) and she has handled well at low speeds. That's good enough for me.

 

Wait, your tailgate got stolen in Vegas? Where? I live in Henderson.

 

You should keep an eye on eBay too. Craigslist is too close to home for them. eBay can keep a seller reasonably distant from the purchase process. I'm not speaking from tailgate experience but I had a TV stolen once and it was sold on eBay. I couldn't get the seller to confirm the S/N. He just kept being dodgy and not responding. I know it was my TV though. Just couldnt prove it

 

I found use for the GoPro mount
