What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got it here

 

13 months, not bad

 

No. Actual rust coming out from spot weld areas. Already took it to the dealer. Waiting on Toyota Rep's response. But I do know what you're referring to.

 

Oh God this again...

Do a little searching on this site, It's "rail dust" or what ever you want to call it,[/QUOTE]


No, not "This again..." I know what rail dust is. I've owned several white vehicles. What I have, unfortunately, is rusting spot welds on my truck bed.

 

Where can I browse the MESO products. Newbie here to the forum and I seen a few mods I would like to look in to

Most expensive mod in here.

 

Hopefully not the same vendor! Jk. Congrats

 

Oh that's not good. Crazy how such an expensive truck can do that so early. I really wish they had put a better clear coat on these trucks. It seems as though they thought of everything else (exterior wise) except a good clear.

Sorry, I assumed...
You mean the fenders and/or the tailgate, not the bed. Right?
What does the dealership say about it?

No worries.
Here's a link to a thread I made when I first noticed the rust.

Bought from headstrong off-road.

Went with OME full suspension kit
- SPC light racing UCAs
- firm struts
- 886x coils
- (2) 1/4” spacers for front, not sure if I’m going to use them or not yet
- Dakar HD rear

 

You selling the cut down exhaust?

 

Local run to the hardware store. 4x8 sheet of OSB in a short bed.

 

Got a check engine light and no traction control light this morning leaving for work. Limped back home and checked the gas cap then disconnected the battery to reset the code with no luck. Waiting for dealership to call back; had to leave a message with the service department! Disconnected the ground; maybe I should try positive cable?

 

^ positive or negative accomplishes the same thing

 

Did you check your vin for the crankshaft position sensor recall-not that traction control has any affect-or check with a obd2 scanner

 

From what I read some people say this is a waste and some people say it is beneficial, either way I don't care, it gave me something to do and it looks good lol!

 

Ron, have you checked fuses to see if one them blew? Also, you might want to check speed and traction control sensors and associated wiring connectors by the wheels where you had some work done on your suspension.

 

Looks good, but you’re in the 1st inning of major league wastes on money
