What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No, I’ll be doing 5100’s with the icon or headstrong leaf pack most likely. I figured 1.5” front and back. Was going to wait a bit but I might go ahead and order it this week. I’ll be playing with it tomorrow to see if raising it up 1 or 1.5 inches changes anything.

 

Took advantage of the unusually warm weather in Colorado today and installed the Morimoto Amber Fog Lights from @kustom54lighting! Need to aim them but love how they look!

 

These headlights were a pain to install but they look great. Fender flares are not 100% perfect after breaking a few clips but oh well.

 

Took mine fishing today.

 

Which headlights did you go with?

 

Waiting for a few more parts to arrive to start my "install day" so in the meantime I drew up a bracket to mount my new Morimoto HID ballasts. I know most people use velcro or something of that nature but I had some free time this afternoon and wanted a cleaner setup. When I get back to the shop next weekend I will throw some scrap sheet on the waterjet and cut these out. Ill cerakote them black too just so they're more subtle and protected. Ill weld nuts to the back of the plates for easy attachment plus rubber washers behind the ballast for good measure

 

Sorry for the delayed response. To take it out, you remove the drawers, then loosen 4 tie-down bolts in the corners and lift it out as one piece. It's not so heavy that one person cant do it by shifting and sliding.

I dropped the softtopper today to haul a few loads of stuff. With tie-down straps I wasn't in need of the full depth. Still worked well. Although I can see how it could be needful at times.

 

Spyder brand. Swapped the bulbs for a brighter halogen before the install.

 

Sensor part number from toyota is 89543-04020

For the sensor or the guard?

 

Great looking truck. What kind of tires on her?

 

Thanks- Falken Wildpeak AT3!

 

Finally finished my CB radio install. I also installed a 6 inch wide strip of clear bra along the top edge of the whole tailgate, help keep light scratches off the tailgate.

This antenna when folded down fits under my bed tent too. That's one of the main reasons I wanted it.

 

Went for a hike then came back and installed pop n lock and extang solid fold 2.0. It is now officially beer:30!

 

Sorry I messed up the quote

The truck won't automatically register the TPMS, they have to be scanned. My local you're shop had the right scanner to do this. They plug it directly into the ecu and download each TPMS. Even then you have to drive the truck for a little bit on the highway before it shows up. The shop I took it to didn't charge me for the scan since I paid for the mounting. I heard Toyota is about $175 to scan.

 

Installed a voltmeter and a couple of cell phone charging USB ports..


Also installed the PRO knob..

And rear view mirrors with garage opener home link remote..

 

Great ideas. If you make extras let me know. I just made hand made brackets for the two
I currently have but will be adding 2 more soon.

 

Added a buggy whip with a Caliraised accessory mount and Tusk quick release flag pole mount.

 

It was a gorgeous day today. Installed the Extang Solid Fold 2.0 and went for a drive. Gotta say it's pretty tight and sturdy. Can't comment on leaks yet until it rains or I take it through a wash.
