What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks like it was a great trip. Beautiful pics! Thanks for posting them!

 

I second this, but beware not to leave it on the bezel while not in use during the day. Had to replace mine after the first one dry rotted. I had it for about a year.

 

Which bumper is that and does it come without a bar?

 

Got this today!! Fits like a glove.. freakin awesome!

 

Added new pro grill and Vinyl Decals from "TVD Vinyl" over emblems... Think I should have went with Gloss Black instead of Flat Black on the emblems They just don't stand out over the crome glow....

 

Not today, but yesterday I ordered the front coilers for my lift. Icon Stage 6 coils from @JDEMELLO. Awesome service and Jason took the time to talk me through the best lift and why. He'll be getting my business for sure.

 

I was in that neighborhood Independence Day week. Seriously spectacular country around there.

 

I finally got my rear skid on! I have been procrastinating because it required me to remove the sliders to cut a notch in them for the rear skid to mount flush to the frame. While I was at it, I had the sliders sandblasted so I could re-coat them, this time with Raptor Coating (bed liner-like). Bolt-on sliders for the win! The sliders are two and a half years old and have seen a fair amount of abuse. They’re basically brand spankin’ new again. Super stoked on the outcome!

Looking good man! Sliders look brand new! The power of bolt on is real!

FTFY

 

I'm jealous. I love the Banff area. We were up there for our second trip back for New Years. We have to fly though being from Atlanta. Nice pics.

 

i marked my suspension bolts with cross check torque seal so any potential loosening is obvious

 

Looks great. If only the front would stay that height after a bumper and winch

 

Yeah. That’s basically what I was asking. Would you do a dual exhaust with two mufflers and keep each side separate (2 x Single) or would you do a dual exhaust with one muffler and basically have it look like an X or H (Single in, Dual out)? Which one would be better? Is sound the only difference? I would assume performance would be something different as well. I’d think the side-by-side single mufflers would allow for a less restrictive air path, which in turn would help reduce any backpressure for a possible slight increase in low- to mid-range torque, along with maybe a slight improvement in horsepower. Only drawback would be a deep, throaty tone. However, I was listening to the YouTube video on OEM vs Side-by-Side and it doesn’t seem like it is that much different as far as the deep throaty tone. However, I’m curious if anyone is aware of other differences between the two and why one would be better than the other.

It’s the Warn hidden hitch bumper and only comes with the hooped bar.

Nice for small animals!

 

For sure! I like the recessed area that the fairlead goes into. the other semi hidden bumpers all seem to be protruding out of the front. No t sure I want the hoop, but the price is excellent! I have heard mixed responses on whether or not you had to trim for fitment, your experience?

 

There’s really no trimming, the instructions show some cutting, but I managed to install it with not cuts.

It’s a heavy bumper for the size, like 80lbs. Just put the winch in last night.

Good thing is every place has it in stock.

 

Cool, thank you for the info

 

Installed my Total Chaos Tacoma rear channel bed stiffeners on my truck today. High-quality craftmanship, components and hardware. Very easy install plus I did not have to trim my Leer 100XQ cap to make everything fit perfectly. Here’s a few pic’s of the product and final install:
