What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks and Amen to that! Very happy today.

 

Like a kid with a new bike.

 

$80?!? Holy $#%! My eBay ODBII bluetooth plug + Fusion ODB App + Toyota PID plugin = $23 total, and I can see every spec and sensor in the entire system with custom displays on any phone or tablet. What additional capabilities is that company giving you for your $80?

No offense, but I think they're completely ripping you guys off with their own branded copy of the Chinese-made ODB adapters.

 

Finished my truck gun build

 

I was more interested in a in-cab cam… I guess the main reason stemmed from having work done at the dealer/shop (just to make sure some young punk isn’t f’n around)

I also have a cap on so to make any use of a rear cam would mean running it straight to the bed. Wasn’t really feeling it but you do make a valid point- rear collision, I’ll have to sleep on it

 

awesome truck , im a huge fan of your budget build , real world prices and a lot of thought ! have a question howd you mount the lights did you fab up a mount?

 

I worked there in the early 2000's

 

love it man , those wheels are a huge improvement dam I need them

 

Thanks man. Got them from this cat out in kali. I can have him get you a set. He buys them from dealerships. These are brand new for $469.00 + $100.00 shipping. Not nary a scratch on them.

unfortunately I have that disease fundsalow after xmas and a $1550.00 oil delivery last week im totally broke and now have the house at 64 haha

 

I had it installed $250

 

I know the feeling. I could not of bought what few mods I bought for my truck if I would not of got a warranty refund from the Honda CR-V I traded in. I'm a disabled Veteran who lives from monthly benefit check to the next monthly benefit check. My own fault though. I had my hitch in the Army done and over but dumb ass me had to go sign back up when the troops went in after saddam insane.

 

I used some 2x2 aluminum angle and 2 short straps to brace and stiffen.
I had originally slotted a single 24" long angle to mount differently (from above) but upon execution, didnt like how it looked so I chopped it into smaller pieces and mounted from below. The crossbar in front of the radiator wasnt super sturdy so I added the support straps.
Now both the mounting bases are sturdy.
It was a bit of a work in progress... since I had to make the parts at work and bring them home to install.

 

Did you use an ODB2 splitter for this or no?

 

No.

 

awesome looks very sturdy

 

A sharp salute to you fellow vet, and thanks for defending our country.

 

Brother look what I just found. These are a better deal than I got.
I know what you mean though. I fell short of getting just 2 more things for my truck that I really wanted. Was wanting a bed step and a soft fold Extang Trifecta tonneau cover.
