What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

This is awesome! Where did you get these?

 

PM Cboy808. Got them super fast.

 

SR bezel in, Morimoto XBs in! Lamin-x is pain in the ass. Waiting on Xenon Depot LEDs for low beam.

 

Also, put new shoes on.....Cooper Discover ST/Maxx They were purchased as BLEMISHED but I can't find any defects other than the white lettering, and let's be honest who cares about that? No vibrations yet!!

 

Received my Homelink mirror from Bob and got it installed.

 

Not much done today, but did do a little photo shoot...

Big shout out to Ben at Dissent Offroad! Love the white on white!

 

Raised the front and back of my drivers seat one inch. Has made a huge improvement in both comfort and driving position. I just came from a Tundra and the Tacoma low seat has been killing my back and legs. Problem solved!
I’ve seen where others have raised the rear only, but this method raises both ends. And, let’s you retain the rear trim pieces.

 

Where did you pick up the hardware for that? How easy was the install?

 

If yours does not fit sideways you can get a header rail for stupid cheap from a 2nd gen at your local wrecking yard. I got one for like $15 at mine

 

Who offers the blemished Coopers?

 

I am about to run the same setup! I was about to use the new ARB Lynx, as I liked the fit/finish ofnthe product and the overall functionality. Then I called up ARB USA with a question...

Me: “I have not seen this new product listed as Weatherproof, is it?”
ARB: “This product is unlike our competitors, in that it has sensitive parts that require this product to be mounted in the cab.”

What did he say?! You mean I have to run all my wires for everything into the cab of the truck!
These devices are made to make wiring and control of such accessories easy. Aka, leave it under the hood for install and run one main control lead into the cab.

So I am going back to installing the SPOD.

 

Ya I think the ARB unit is better if you're using their compressors. You would need a relay system as well as it's strictly a controller.

SPOD is a legit product too. SwitchPros are local to me in OC and I've met them before. They're literally family owned and operated. Their kids all work there.

 

Only issue with that is I believe my trifold tonneau would be in the way for using a header rail. Thanks for the tip.

 

Thanks for sharing!

 

Well, I ended up having the same problem it turns out. Here was my new solution!

 

I did a sneak preview vid yesterday. Can you tell I was excited?

Sucks you had a horrible experience at Gresham Toyota. Looks like you found your new go-to at Tonkin. -- I'm currently at Beaverton Toyota waiting for the 0062-18/0058-18 TSBs to be taken care of. I think I finally found an advisor who knows what the hell is going on. Fingers crossed.
