3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

Mammoth Mountain a couple of weeks ago.

 

Anyone have a picture of blacked out Trd pro style headlights on their MGM?

 

Finally lifted.
OME 888, HS spacer for taco lean, full OME deaver pack. Bilstein 5100 front, 5100 extended rear. Ordered all thru Headstrong. I live in Hawaii and had wonderful service, and very happy with the outcome and products. There's other stuff with the kit too but you can check that on their website.
Stock measurements: ~21 front / 21.5 rear

After measurements: ~ 24.25 front / 25 rear

No vibes and rides like a dream (compared to my 1st gen with Toytec coilovers and All pro expedition pack)

Tires are 265/70/17 on trails. I plan on stepping up to 275/70 kevlars soon. I've always ran that tire and loved them. It'll be my 4th set.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Better pics to follow, finished late and work tomorrow

 

Had a great weekend rolling through the Black Hills of Wyoming! It's a shame so many of the 4x4 roads have been blocked off, but you can a least still mountain bike them!

 

For Bob1sh:

 

What bull bar is that? I'm looking for something that requires no body work. Trucks looks great!

 

Very nice @Cudgel!

 

Truck looks great from the back, any side shots? What lift and tire size?

 

That lift looks like the perfect amount of rake! Can't wait to see some updated side shots, how do you like those 4Runner Trail wheels? I've been thinking about swapping my OR wheels for them

 

For Livin....specs from my original post below...including the Revtek Front Light Bar.

(I like things clean and stock where possible). Only mod I've made is new bolt on extensions on lower front horns to make the hooks removable...even those I fab'd brackets to bolt on to the exiting bolt holes so I can return to stock. I did need to bore a 1/2" hole in bottom back of the plastic coin holder compartment (under the tray cover) above left side of dash switches, to fish the wires for the switches for the KC's. But the switches are mounted to an aftermarket plate floating on 3M tape in the compartment, again all removable and doesn't vibrate.

I'm looking at a pseudo roll bar that I can adapt to fit the bed rails for the bed now...not an easy find...Go Rhino Sport Bar 2.0 is interesting but the top section is stupid looking and the brackets in several pictures look to overlap the rails awkwardly. Other bed bars look wimpy or like the 1970's "CHIPs" dude.

Here's what I've done:
BF Goodrich AT KO2s 265/75R16 on stock wheels and suspension on 2017 Off-road. Smooth enough for everyday driving, tough enough for back country.
Revtek KT 20016 Front Light Bar Mount: http://www.revtek.com/vehicle-selec...coma/599-kit-20016-front-light-bar-mount.html
KC 5" Apollos (I liked the sleeker 5"s over the 6"s): http://www.kchilites.com/light-type/halogen/apollo-pro/5-apollo-pro-pair-pack-system.html
Hooks are Mini MonsterHooks: https://www.monsterhooksinc.com/collections/monster-hooks/products/monster-hook-mini-black

 

Great looking Taco! Are you getting any rubbing with the upsize on the BFG's on the stock wheels and stock OR suspension? Thanks

 

@ salm...No, that's why I just went up to 265/75s...I'll do a lift kit later in the trucks life once the drive train warranty is over and will go up to 285s or more ;-)

Good call. I am going to go the same route when my OEM tires wear our and or get a flat. Want to get a little more lift the upsize in tires will give but I don't want to touch the suspension while I am under warranty.

 

Here ya go!

 

Thanks pistol Pete

@575TRD any more pics of your headlights?

 

Thank you! I'm loving the rake. I always shoot for at least 1" rake due to heavily loading the bed during fishing and camping trips.
Love the runner wheels. I've always been a fan of OEM. It just took me a while to find some lol

 

Will you need wheel spacers to run the 275s or will those runner wheels give you enough clearance?

 

This is about the only other pic of them. I'll get some better ones tomorrow and post them.

 

With the current 265's there a lot of room. But I'm not gonna chance it, most likely run spacers
