What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I doubt it...it was gone before you posted

 

You didn't no apology necessary. Just figured it best to delete the post instead of starting a shit storm.

 

Nothing wrong with the older Rangers but they are not in the same league as the Taco IMO and lost its value very quickly Bought mine 21yrs ago basically stripped model because I couldn't afford a taco. It was my first new vehicle. Put a lot of work and mods into it over the years and still drive it today. But now I can afford both the Ranger and the taco and the sports car and.....lol

 

Mounted a set of k02s 265/75 r16. Next up fox shox.

 

Limit straps on stock shock mounts?

Not hating, just curious.

 

It's all starting to come together, my front and rear bumpers, and bed cage from Brute Force Fab will be done soon, still need tires and lug nuts.

 

I don't know the 2011's I have been trying to deal on they are awful proud of. I guess what is hurting the deals the most is I still owe $7600 on this Tacoma.

10.5" travel bilstiens from a Tundra with OME hd96 springs and a 1" lift block ( YES A LIFT BLOCK ) ( god save me ) when there is no shock on the lower mount the axle drops about 2" past the mount hole, I take my truck off road, been known to get air born out on the dunes. Blow out a set of Fox extended shocks in Moab last month so yeah Limit straps.

 

Gotcha. Surprised you aren't going for a shock relocation or SUA with that kind of fun. I'm not even running limits with 12x2.5" but I doubt I could get my pig airborne.

 

Yea, mines a 98 so not worth a whole lot by blue book even in mint condition. You must be trying to get into a 4wd?

 

Air born takes mine full throttle and a 1/2 mile to get it going fast enough on the beach to get it off the ground .not really that long of a run up . Moab trip weight fully loaded on the truck scales it reached 6600lbs.

 

Gotcha. Still would recommend some non-stock mounting if you are planning on hooning that aggressively.

 

No not really. Would rather have a 2WD. I have a bad knee or I would be all over the gray manual 2WD in that 2nd link. Had the guy send me some pics of the red 2WD in 3rd link and I'm not liking the rust on the frame. It is a Canadian truck along with the gray one. The 4X4 in link #1 has spent it's entire 8 years close by in southern Indiana. Picks of frame on #3 link. (Truck in link #3 only has 28596 on it)

 

already in the planning stages, hammer hangers or a flip kit not sure yet, also working on SAS up front with fj80 front end or I'll go with a gm14 bolt in the rear and a dana 60 up front. To be honest the only thing that has held me back is that I like how it rides and the garage door is kind of low the fin on the roof clears by about 6" now

 

Damn, that's not good. Mine is still like new but no salt here yet but lots of snow.

 

Ooooh Yeah delete that Chrome

 

Yeah when he sent me those pictures he saved me a 180 mile drive to look at the truck. LOL!

 

My 2018 baby turned a year old this month and 1,585 miles today (9/30/19).

Added TRD Sport Emblems. Got them on Ebay for around $20. Quality looks good.

 

Jesus Christ, the truck is going to last you 100 years at that rate.

I bought mine a month ago and already have 4k on it

 

LOL, the new year resolution is to drive it more often. I traded in my 2016 last year with only 5k miles. Parking at my work place is really crowded and I drive to avoid all door dings by driving my first generation to work.
