What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah no plans of ever going back there.
Thankfully living in a Big city has some benefits, like many other stores, we have more than 12 Toyota dealerships here in SD area alone.
The only reason I went to the dealership was to save time for the oil change and to turn off the door beeps.
Even if it's only an hours work it's so difficult to carve out time for it with the little time I get even on a weekend with a hectic life and schedule.

 

Looks great. Can I ask what made you want to mount your Raptor lights on your grill on the outside instead of the inside of the grill? When I installed mine I questioned doing the same thing. As of right now, I have them mounted inside the grill.

 

It's no re-gear, but it'll do (for now)...

 

How do you like it so far? I'm noticing my transmission hunting more and more the longer I own the truck and it's starting to bug me a bit.

I'm thinking about getting one of these.

 

Is that the SDHQ panel for the switch pro? Or did you make it yourself? Thanks

 

The way i mounted them... I came up with 3 ways and took the easiest route first - ill have to redo them with the correct colors anyways.
1. zip ties
2. screws
3. rivets

I made back mounting plates out of some aluminum for each, trimmed down to the size of the light and drilled holes for any of the above 3. SO glad i used zip ties the first time so i can cut them right out for the replacement; the rivets would've been a bitch.

Theyre called Switch Pros and they sell the concealed mounting panel (http://store.switchpros.com/sp-8100...ower-system-with-concealed-mounting-hardware/) or one with eyelets for installation anywhere (http://store.switchpros.com/sp-8100-8-switch-panel-power-system/)

The concealed hardware was super easy on the Tacoma. The cubby hole to the left of the steering wheel is the perfect size for the panel, 4 screws and its out - 4 pieces of small all thread, perfectly sized brackets for the location and some quick lock nuts. BAM! Panel. lol

I KNOW I KNOW I SHOULDVE TAKEN MORE PICS

 

Thanks for the info.
More pics would've been better lol J/K

 

I don't think you have enough lights. You need to add 10 more light bars and you should be good

 

Upgraded my Fox 2.0's from 116's to 117's

 

Wrapped my fold down table

 

well I am gonna add a 50" curved rigid on the roof and a another 30" behind the grill and pods in my roof basket and lights inside my lights

 

Someone needs to make a wrap made of leds to please some people

 

I drove 600+ miles to/from the NWOR (which included long flat distances as well as steep inclines/declines) and a 38 mile trail run (slow moving forest road trails). I'm happy with the SS Pro... it's a cheap way to improve the truck's transmission performance, but a re-gear would be even better. Overall, I'm stoked!

 

Hard to beat that mechanical advantage that the gears provide. Definitely one of my top 3 favorite mods

 

Geez, if gears only made the top 3, what are your other 2 favorites?

 

ha ha, one is on hold for something that I haven't done yet... And the other, well shit, it's like asking which of my dogs is my favorite...

 

I bet! But at $175 vs. $3k+... it's a good place to start. One day...

 

Just added myself to the growing list of happy @mesojdm ultimate turn signals


There are so many LEDs that fill up the space with amber that it makes my DD switchbacks in the headlights look like they're missing LEDs


Also added the front bedrail and rotopax


Per my agreement with @mesojdm for the first set of BROPRO taillights, I agreed to provide helpful ongoing feedback. I am happy to report these taillights still look great even at different angles

 

Easy for me... The one on the right is DEFINITELY my favorite hahaha!
