What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Cool thanks. It says it uses patented clips so you can remove it to access the spare tire mechanism. That's the first I've ever seen like that. Cool.

 

Famous last words

 

Broke in the bed with a lil DIY project...ít hauled 1200lbs like a champ in ECP mode. Half a yard of limestone for several trips.

 

Just rolled over 1k miles on the ODO on my commute home this morning from midnight shift!!




Bye bye break in period!!!

And conveniently timed to coincide with my day off and I think I might just take her wheelin for the first time in the Jersey Pine Barrens here in a bit...

 

So true! I told myself the same thing 10 months ago when I bought mine..

 

Installed the Shift Sense Pro in my 2016 TRD OR 4x4. Not sure yet if I like it or not.

I do like how I was able to tuck it away nicely. I really didn't like where most people mount them.

 

I hope that it meets your expectations, but these are the chances we take. Sometimes we win and sometimes not!

 

At first yes because you couldn't really wipe it with a cloth because it grabbed. I sprayed my grill with aero 303 rubber, vinyl protector and it gave it a satin finish and got rid of the rubbery feel. Now bugs wash right off and I can wipe it down without it being grippy.

 

Good looking truck! What front and rear bumpers you rocking? Also, what size are your tires and do you have a lift?

 

Tis the firewood season.

 

Thanks man I appreciate it! It's a work in progress like most haha. I have the SOS CONCEPTS front streamline bumper and High Clearance rear bumper.

My lift is Toytec 3" lift coils up front with Billstein 5100's all the way around and a Deaver AAL in the rear.

I'm honestly not happy with the height. I want to change to an OME or King setup. But that's about 3500 bucks that i currently don't have haha.

 

I have a tailgate bar as well. Mine is a Opt7 with the sequential blinkers, link below. It is stiff becasue they put the LEDs in an aluminium channel and then cover them with epoxy.

I attached the bar to some hard plastic "velcro" that both parts are the same meaning not the soft hook and fabric type loop. I used the red 3M automotive tape and put a matching strip on each side of the spare access hole. So if I need to access the spare I can pull the tailgate bar off and re-attach when the job is done.

Hey robp62 I also like the tailgate elites mine is a Putco BLADE had it installed last weekend . When I saw one one the display at TINT WORLD I WAS HOOKED

 

Wow, 3 people so far with the same setup haha! Perfect!

 

about to pull the trigger on MBRP Rocksliders for my 2016 TRD SPORT any info would be appreciated

 

it actually already has a 3 year warranty included so if i get 3 years out of it i'll be happy but im sure it'll be good for much longer than that!

 

i'll get to test it out for the first time this weekend while installing my leaf springs... i'll let you know how it goes!

 

Get some real rock sliders,those attach to the body not the frame

 

It was labeled "Toyota glass cleaner", got it from the dealer parts counter, $2.99.

 

no they mount to frame
