What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Don't have any sensors...long story.

 

the plot thickens...

 

Indeed.

 

After encountering a problem with installing the AnytimeBackupCamera, I finally figured out the issue. Removing the trim piece under the steering wheel, I immediately noticed a poor wire connection to the camera switch. Sometimes I can be such a dumb-dumb. Anyway, without issues (I had them), this is a couple hour project.

 

I ordered from TPMS.com and they are factory units and worked perfectly for my 4Runner wheels on 2019 DCLB Off Road.

 

Great, thanks!

 

Does Lund or anyone make a bed extender that would hold two kayaks?

 

If you have a question about the correct part# just go to website and call (I did). Simple and money saving deal that I was alerted to by another TW user.

 

This looks awesome man! Can you get us some pics in the daylight? I have a DB and would be very interested in this setup.

 

Thanks, brother! Will do, man. For now, check out this guy's stuff on the DB cover w/ the FRO setup.



Mine is a little bit different from the way he set his up since I've got a smaller rtt on the back (Tepui Ayer 2 I picked up last summer at REI). My wife's 5'2" and I'm 5'7", so the setup works for us. For bigger tents, the cab panel may need to be utilized for better cargo load stability.

Also, you can check out my build here (along with other cool DB mods):

Thank you!

I have another question though. I got my Diamondback HD in January and your seal looks different than mine. Yours looks more like a single "blade" that reaches out toward the edge of the bed more than mine. Mine is kind of just like a cushion like gasket that squeezes between the cover and the bed rail. I am asking because I get water in through mine, even though I've tried to tighten it down with weight on top, and have sealed the gaps at the front of the bed. Do you get water running down the insides of your bed when driving in the rain?

This picture is the one I'm referencing:

 

You're welcome! It's weird. I do get water in the truck bed, ...but mainly when the truck's in motion in the rain? I haven't filled in the gaps at the front corners of the bed yet and I haven't modded the cubbies in the back to seal better against water/mud/dust, either. However, we were in Utah last summer and it poured cats and dogs out there at the Te-Ah campground. The bed looked dry after camping during one of the night storms. I got the DiamondBack cover back in Sep. 2017, so I don't know if what they're using back then is the same as what you have when you got yours. The weight I've added on top could also be helping to seal the cover better on the bed side caps. For the gear I keep back there, I mainly try to keep the more important stuff contained in bins (some with water resistant lids).

 

I have these on my Amazon wish list if I decide to replace mine when they quit working.

Installed an ExtremeAire Magnum compressor in the larger bed storage with the Expedition Essentials compressor mount, which I’d already hacked up to fit the compressor.

This was rather a bitch to install and I’m $800 balls deep into it. Somehow someway with a few beers it went in with about 1/2” to spare.

Now I have to wire it and install the tank which is another project.

 

Installed these today. What other bulbs have you installed?

 

Me too! Debating on whether or not to do the grill.

 

Hopefully this isn't a repost but I'd say Doug got it just about right:

Got these knobs for the radio in the mail today. They are made by @OneMoreToyota and are super cool. Derek is a real awesome guy to deal with. When my first set got lost in the mail he sent me out as new set. I couldn't be happier with these. No more slipping off the knob and accidentally calling someone. Thanks Derek!

 

Thanks Bud!
