What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I am using the Total chaos shock relo and bump stop kits.

Yes I was referring to the grille. It comes with the lights too. I like the pro grill that a lot of people put on but wanted something a little more unique. Haven’t seen a ton of these around.

 

Nice! I have been looking into doing that shock relocation as well.

 

But wait it'll never be a Tacoma!

 

I hear Ford and GM are jointly working on a vaccine for Tacomamoditis. To my knowledge there is no known cure.

You will in the nanny state of Massachusetts.

 

That sounds wonderful haha. I live in the tundra of North Dakota so with my taco warming up in the morning my gauge reads like 9 mpg

 

Well that was harder than it should have been. Now it’s time to wire shit up and pray I don’t fry something in the process.

 

Why was it harder than normal for you?

 

Trying to get her level was a pain. It wanted to point straight up. And not having an extra set of hands made it every difficult to hold the light bar up while also trying to thread in the microscopic bolts you need to use.

Wiring it up now.

 

Trying to thread the light bar bolts blind made for a fun afternoon for me too when I did mine. I'm happy with the results now, but back then I felt the same as you did.

 

Got my wheels and tires installed! Happy with how it turned out. King install tomorrow!

Wheels: RRW RR2-V, 17x8.5, 0 Offset
Tires: 265/70/17, Nitto Ridge Grappler, C Rated

 

Nothing really done to the truck, but my Wife finally drove the thing. It's only been about 4.5mo. Ha!

She was a bit worried since she didn't like the forward view over the skewp. She admitted that after a short time that all was good and it was way better to drive than she thought.

She also said that the drivers seat was more comfortable than the passenger seat? I think they feel the same, but I might look into a rear spacer mod. . .

 

Rdige Grapps looking good!!!! ​

 

Just installed mine last week. Makes a big difference but if you're tall it might not be worth it. I'm 5'10" and my head is pretty close to the ceiling now

Thanks!

I'm 6'0" with a tall torso, short inseam (31"). The head room seems fine to me? Weird, I know. From your build thread, it looks like you don't have a sunroof either.

Given her comments, I would only do the passenger seat.

Do you have a link to the spacers that you used? Or, did you make your own?

I got the 1.5" spacers. The website is old and takes a bit to navigate but the shipping was fast!

 

Thanks! I think..lol

Thank you sir! I went in anticipating buying a Inferno, but really liked this color, and this one had all the goodies..

Thank You!

Here's a link for the GSF build thread in process

Thanks! I like the adjustable one since I am not sure if 1in or 1.5in is the height needed.

I like old sites better, less adverts.

 

Unless what you are seeing is that people are using spacers for their suspension to level out the truck, which would be used in the front.
