What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Love the badge in your grill.

 

So I could have the 4Runner sensors programmed to show pressures and work correctly? I was under the impression that 3rd gen taco sensors were completely different.

 

Installed new radio knobs from Tacoweide, killer!!

I tried the bedmat from my '07 and its an exact fit for my new '19. Funny, my '07 came with one in TRD trim and my new one didn't.

 

I can't speak to that effect, but from my experience the truck can't read the TPMS without being scanned. I don't know if there are any differences between the 3rd gen and the 4r. Sorry

 

Today ...

.... installed a TRD Pro skid plate
.... installed a Fumoto valve
.... installed the aluminum oil filter housing
.... did an oil change

P.S. OEM oil filters really need to have more filtering material in them ... could learn a thing or two from Honda.

 

I like nitto’s best. I’ve had both

 

Most tire shops around here only charge $25-$35 to do the scan.

 

Other tires may be more forgiving, regarding comfort on the road, but you will be hard pressed to beat the life span of a BFG KO or KO2. After 50k miles they get a little hard and bumpy riding but I have never removed or replaced a set that was worn out. The last KO's I had were nearly 7 years old, still had tread to pass inspection, looked great and I sold them for $250. The side walls still looked new.

 

That is clean, I was just thinking of where to mount when I finally do this.

 

I'll agree had 62000 on my last set of ko on a08 coma. Still had almost half tread n tires when I traded it for the 17 coma

 

Took mine bowhunting today. No pics but it did happen.

 

I went the cheap route. I leave it plugged in all the time. Goes off when the ignition is turned off.

Tonight, I stood and admired my Tacoma’s inexpensive yellow LED fog lights.

 

Not saying anything bad about KO2’s. I installed them on sons OR. The nitto’s are just more aggressive and a little noisier on highway

 

I saw this and had to get one...

 

Mine only lasted about a month back to stock for me.

 

Oooooo, very nice! Would love to see the final product. I had to use some self tapping screws with double sided tape... :/

 

Do you have a link to where you bought it? I didn't realize how easy they were to install and you now have me considering buying myself a late xmas present.

 

Interesting. Had both in 305/70-16 flavor on a Z71 and found the opposite to be true. In fact the KO2s were far and away better on any kind of mud/sand/snow (especially mud and snow), wore much better, and were quieter than the Nittos through the entire tread life. They both lasted about equally as long but the BFGs were better for me in nearly every aspect from mounting and balancing to replacement and it wasn't even close. The original KOs were so bad in the mud that I swore them off and bought Nittos, but the KO2s have been absolutely ridiculously good at everything I've asked of them. I'm a M/T guy and the KO2s have been stellar in the mud, very surprising. The Nittos were good in the sand, absolutely abhorrent in the mud, and marginal in the snow and ice. I'd be hard pressed to consider another A/T tire other than the BFG presently. Maybe size matters?

 

I switch the yellow LEDs in/out with the stock bulbs, so that’s probably saving bulb life ...lol! I actually prefer the stock bulbs.
