3rd Gen TRD Pro what have you done, what will you do. Post it.

I’ve only added a multi-mount for the phone and a set of bed stiffeners for the extra tie down spots.
My future plans are to go up one size on the tires and that’s about it.
It works as is for 100% of the roads and trails I have and ever plan on driving.

 

... Also swapped out tuned Fox shocks for adjustable Kings with res, new shift knob, new steel skid plate, traded with OR for no scoop hood, replaced seats, replaced fog lights, and got Pro SEMA rims?

This is a fun game

 

Added Meso Maps and domes, Meso Ultimate turns and a Gasshole because GASSHOLE! Mobtown offroad sliders. Ridgid midnight ditch lights and caliraised hidden light bar. Prinsu roof rack. BFG KBRO 2s 265/75/16s. and a ton of little stuff like radio knobs, speakers, glove and center console orginizers. Favorite mod is definantly the sliders. These things are to best bolt on mod you can get!!!

 

Hmmm...if that’s a fact (not disputing you) then it must also mean if all other 4x4 trim models have OEM Pro Fox coilovers and same wheels they would also be able to run 285s without rubbing. We’ve all seen conflicting posts from Pro owners w 285s that do rub and had to trim fenders and/or perform CMC.
I don’t have 285s so I can’t speak from personal experience.

 

Can't remember everything I've done so far, but I'll try:

• Mobtown sliders
• Dissent Cab and roof rack
• Softopper bed cover thing
• Rhino 270 degree awning (not shown) with mounts from Dissent
• 1up-usa bike rack with Dissent mounts
• Black Rhino Arsenal wheels 17x9.5, -18 offset (seems like I could never fit 35s with this offset without relocating cab mount bolt)
• Falken Wildpeak 285/70/R17
• Accutuned Fox shocks with remote res and adjusters
• JBA UCAs (what a pain to install UCAs on a tacoma)
• Icon RXT springs
• Honey Badger Bumper (didn't have a good experience with it or the company at all - highly recommend Demello or CBI T3)
• KC hilites C40 40" lightbar on top
• Rough Country 30" lightbar in bumper with white DRL
• 2x Rigid 10" light bars in bumper with amber DRL
• Alpine ILX-F309 head unit
• OEM Audio Plus system with 1 sub
• Meso indoor lights
• Meso interior molle ceiling rack thingy with paracord handles
• 5.29 gears on order with front locker (this is one install i'm not doing myself)
• ARB twin compressor
• Slee mount for twin compressor
• SwitchPro 9100
• SDHQ mount for switchpro 9100
• DMM mount thing on top of radio bezel to attach rhino mounts
• ultragauge
• Powertrays mount with accessories for SwitchPro
• Maxxtraxx pad things
• trunk lock mod to work with keyfob
• Vantrue N2 dashcam on the gopro mount
• X20 10k winch sitting in garage still

Will/Might add:

• wider fender things and line-x them with matte finish
• black vinyl all over hood b/c of 40" rack lightbar (white hood way too bright even with lightbar angled up)
• see if I can add the 2020 tacoma radio with all those cameras
• In-line speed calibrator from rough country

Need to remove that bumper to cut it so I can put on my front skid plate and the winch. I might have to cut all six bumper mount bolts off and weld on longer ones. Then add the normal reinforcement most other bumper manufacturers include. I don't trust that thing at all as it is for winching.

 

• @Tacowiede radio knobs (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/replacement-radio-knobs-knurled-black-anodized-aluminum.556567/)
• @MESO - Maps, Domes, Stage 1 Tails, Gasshole, Molle Rack (not installed yet), TRD (OG) Bucket
• Kicker Tweeter and Speakers (https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/premium-audio-upgrade-for-less-than-250.510424/)
• OEM Roof Rack, Bed Mat, Rubber Mats, Mud flaps
• TRD Intake, Oil + Radiator Cap
• Dakine DLX Tailgate cover
• SpartanXCustoms scoop light white/amber DRL shipping this week!

 

OK.
That's a worthy list.

I concede

Nice set up, what Solar kit and set up did you use? Thanks

 

Holy shit! This is the jam!

If you haven’t seen the RedArc, you need to check it out. Keeps batteries fully topped off. You can run AGM or Lithium’s, batteries can be different sizes, and it has a built in MPPT controller for Solar.
Those Aussies are way ahead of us in the Solar game, but we are getting connected now.

I have 4 Oddessy batteries, two in the taco and two in the trailer.

Using some Renology panels. I usually pull a trailer which is loaded with power.

 

And these showed up yesterday from Demello! So stoked!

 

So true, that’s how ARB rolls.
They made a bumper and a snorkel in the 70’s for a Land Rover, and that’s exactly what they were designed around. Has never changed, just the hardware they give you to bolt it on.

 

My paint was beat up from the feet up when I got the truck a month ago. I did a full paint correction and a opti-coat cermaic coat and now she shines like nobody's business. Let's see how well the black holds up now.

 

Correct. If you get OEM fox and pro wheels you should be able to do 285s. If anyone with a trd offroad tells you you cant, you know why.

 

Very clean. Nice work

Now heat gun that Dealer name off the back of your clean ride!
