What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Love it man ! Any lift? What size are the Wildpeaks?

 

Got FN FX Pro wheels and Falken Wildpeaks installed this morning. Very happy with the look. Got a little rubbing on the mud flaps on full turns. Need to trim them a bit or just delete.

 

Looks great. I had the same issue with mine and the front passenger flaps. My truck did not originally come with flaps...I added them later. When I put in FX Pro's and 265/70 KO2's on, I had the slight rub and removed the flaps altogether.

 

That sounds like my best bet too.

 

The Hypertech speedometer calibrator. It's a little signal interceptor box that you put in line with your gauges on the dashboard. It's expensive for what it does, but simplicity itself to put in. Plugged it into my computer, used their software to tell it what size tires I have, and then took five minutes to get it installed.

And if it makes the wife happy, it's cheap!

 

Ok so you have to remove the gauge cluster to install it? Also, does it correct the data for the odometer and fuel economy estimation as well? Thanks

 

Yeah, it's just four bolts.

Haven't had it long enough to notice whether the fuel econ/odo stuff is correct, but I would imagine they are, because whatever math it does to figure those is going to be based on the speedometer signal, and all the hypertech does is correct the speedo signal that the dash sees.

 

Gotcha, that sounds like a great solution man. Thanks for the input.

 

Looking for a set of Predator Hoop Steps for my TRD OR Access Cab. Can only find them for the Double Cab. Anybody have a source for AC out there?

 

They were clearanced out early this year. I paid $630 shipped to my door. Toyota doesn't stock the kits anymore but you may find them for sale from a person that bought it but didn't install. They are basically Billstein 6112s/5160s tuned to the Tacoma. It was a real good deal and they sold out quick.

 

Another idea for people, if they want to use the ebay 20% PICKDADSGIFT coupon today would be to buy some clazzio's...I already ordered my tweeters so the coupon is dead to me now but could pick up some synthetic clazzios for $276, or full leather for $480. basic colors not customized.

 

Thats awesome! that second picture reminds me of early sify movies...

 

Wife just got home from a lengthy road trip......here RAV4 was bug splattered and my 3rd Gen could use a wash.




A day off work spent chilling, grilling, washing and relaxing.






































Thirsty work......

 

Looks fantastic! Nicely done!

 

You dog! I hate reading your posts when I am stuck here at work!!!!!!

 

You can look in the B/S/T Buy Sell Trade section of the forum. I see them there all the time.

 

Thank you sir. Due to work and travel plans the wheels sat in my garage mocking me for a week and a half. Glad to finally get them mounted.

 

Yeah, some things just click. This is one of them.

 

Sorry, man.


Spent the weekend working like crazy.........today is my day off before the insanity resumes.


Spending it enjoying myself and playing with a Weber.

 

FYI switch the fronts to flat rubber Duplicolor flaps. I have those and no rubbing at all both before and after using 5100's to level with 265/70/17 KO2's. They are cheap and perform fine. Nice and flexible.
