What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Ah I worded it wrong for you.

I cut off the middle section up to the vents and left the top lip section where the bolt attaches to the bumper.

Middle section cut only:


A week later, I removed off 1" on the bottom to show more of the skid plate.

Additional 1" bottom cut:

 

You have a pic with the bumper? I was thinking about doing that as well eventually. My payments started this month so I gotta figure out my finances again lol.

 

In the last week...

Accessories added:
- Predator steps
- Blacked out logos
- Tinted driver and passenger windows
- Visor tint (not yet installed)
- TRD Pro shifting knob
- Bed mat (I use my truck a lot for work)
- Sill guards
- All-weather mats
- Black chrome exhaust tip



Interior mods:
- Usb 1-3 splitter (attached to passenger side center console by double sided tape)
- Sunglass holder on passenger visor (didn't think about crawl control taking that away...)
- LED interior lights
- Center console/glovebox organizers

 

Thanks! That looks good, having your cake and eating it too.

 

Ugh. I miss WA. I’m originally from Whidbey Island.

 

I've had these lights sitting on my desk for a while because I hate doing electrical work but I finally installed everything yesterday.
The light bar has been on for about a year but I installed the Baja Designs fog lights, the raptor style grill lights and the engine bay light.
I tinted the grill lights so they are not visible when the truck is off.
Rarely due I drive my truck at night because we are always in my wife's Sienna with the kids so I connected my DRls, grill lights and fog lights to automatically turn on whenever the truck is turned on, no matter what position the light switch is on.
I also added a switch inside so that I can turn off the fogs if I want.

 

installed Total Chaos bed stiffeners. Went fairly well aside from needing a 2 ft. breaker bar and lots of PB blaster to get those T55 torx bed to frame bolts out.

btw, I talked to those guys yesterday (TC), amazingly knowledgeable. Convinced me to replace my LCAs. Their rationale totally makes sense. Few people replace them and stop at the UCAs since it's necessary to keep stock angles and alignment post lift, but the LCAs actually take more of the impact and force and have crappy rubber bushings. Another mod to come....

 

Which pro kit did you get there are 2, 40013 and 40014

 

Oem Pro Grille,bed mat,3/2 lift and wheels and tires before and after

 

CANNOT WAIT FOR LIFT.

Needs now.

 

Me TOOOOOOOOO

 

Which Tek Lok is that and knife

 

Crawl control is absolutely useless in mud, and eats piles of dicks compared to what a front locker would do.

 

What engine bay light did you use.

 

I was going to suggest this. Taking it off was the first thing I did. It won’t hurt your mileage or increase wind/road noise. Plus it looks better without it.

 

Looks like a Baja rock light? I guess I’m too slow on my install I’m working on mine now same location. How did you attach? I have rivnuts that should be delivered today. I also haven’t figured out what switch I want to use

 

Going to utilize the cargo space to drop some pine for my front yard today. Tetris skills allowed me to secure 16 bales inside my retractable bed.

 

How about this one? Lol

 

I've had this silly inner turmoil with myself about whether or not I like the TRD Pro grill ever since I installed one last year. I finally decided that I don't like how big it is.

Dusted the cobwebs off my OEM grill and did some painting this morning - my soul is finally at peace!

Love having the color scheme of the Pro grill but with a much sleeker profile somewhere between that of the 2nd gen and 3rd gen.

 

I like the red bezel surround! That looks great!
