What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I mentioned tires....no I bitched about those stupid Firestone tires constantly. Got me some BF Goodrich LT265/70R17 All Terrain T/A K02. They are pimp nice. OH YEAH.

Yep. My Taco kit came today and these are prototypes to match my truck build. rainy/snowy days are coming so got lots of time to do it right.

 

Source? Mama's gonna have a fit!

 

This is going to be epic !

I can’t wait to see the finished product.

 

Literally took about 2 hours. Most of it was because when I “flossed” off the OEM badge, none of the 3m came off with it. So peeved, but I persevered. And then I used wd40 to help with removing the goo which then caused my painter tape job to slip around like a figure skater. I nonetheless persevered. Not much but I like it a lot. Eventually I want to get those Tactilian mountain magnets for them. All looks good in taco world,

Gonna be quite awhile. Also gonna do lighting down the road to match if possible. Ordered extra headlights to try and retro. And extra mirrors. Gotta make them Ultimate mirrors with ditch and Meso puddles. Lol...

 

As 50 cent would say, “they see me rollin’”

 

Started building the access cab rear seat delete deck...

 

I had a feeling you were to go the extra mile on the details. I can’t blame you though, I would do the same thing.

Unfortunately I don’t have the patience to build one from total scratch like this. I would love to, but I would end up screwing it up lol.

 

SPC UCAs installed. I only have a few miles on them but my steering feels so much more stiff and less wandering on the highway. Went from barely 2 degrees castor to now almost 6 degrees.

Leaving for a five day trip to the Michigan UP Thursday, so we will find out for sure what difference they made.

 

Link to thread/write up please.

 

This is my first attempt so we'll see.

 

Whoa.

Got plans? Very cool

 

Has not sure what he would say about the 4 dead limp Firestone carcasses in the bed!

 

Hey All,

Just joined the site. Had to switch out the sport wheels on my TRD for the TRD Pro wheels. Love the look.

 

FFS this needs it’s own build thread so we can follow it!!!

 

I actually plan on one once I get started. Still getting parts in.
