What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Installed KTJO POP N LOCK tailgate locker. worked like a charm.

 

Wow I’m losing friend to Idaho next week. I don’t like ca anymore. Well not like I used to.

 

Leveled my truck. Fox 2.0 performance components from Wheelwell.com coupon deals. Not a big change in lift (1” in front) but the ride is definitely better. Not a bad install other than the rear lower shock bushings was a PITA to slide into the lower bracket.

 

ARB universal awning brackets. Here’s the link: ARB OS850 Universal Awning Bracket for Most Roof Racks

I assumed one order would come with 2 brackets, but that was wrong. 1 order = 1 bracket.

 

Awesome , thanks for the link. I appreciate it.

 

Upgraded from this:

Installed RCI sliders.

 

I just installed the Pro 2.5 IB shock up front and the 2.0's in the rear. I had the same issue with the rear lower bushings not fitting. Ended up just trimming both sides of the bushing to get them to fit. Fox should probably re-look the dimensions on the bushing. No way they should not be that tight.

 

Did the M/T Accumulator Delete yesterday. The clutch has the same grab point everytime now. It was a little challenging getting the double inverted flare right for the new clutch line but after a few practice tries it came together.

I modified a bracket from my Celica's old cruise control actuator. It was exactly the right spacing for the existing bolt holes on the transmission. Didn't have much play to begin with but it will be some extra support offroad.

 

I agree. While struggling with the bushings, I googled this issue and found that other people had the same problem.

 

Thank you!! Pleasure to be here

 

I just finished installing an OEM roof rack that I picked up from another TW member. I really like the look of it. No I just need a kayak

 

Looks like a modest suspension lift would be the next mod.

 

Someone mentioned they would like to have some 4 Runner wheels on here the other day. The guy I bought my wheels from has a new set of dealer take-offs! Has some other Toyota wheels also.

Icon stage 1 at 2.5”, 1” rear blocks, 285/75/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, SCS Ray 10 wheels 17x8.5 -10mm, 1” Toytec body lift, Boot-slide mod.

That’s as modest as I can get.

 

Put a Pop-A-Lock on my tailgate so when I use the remote lock fob for the doors it locks the tailgate too.I keep my canopy locked and then I don't have to think about leaving fly fishing stuff or golf clubs inside the canopy. The canopy key is on my key ring and easy to use unlike that goofy key you have to pull out of the fob to lock the tailgate. Youtube linky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehiS8HVTRkc

 

Washed, clayed and coated with Chem Guys HydroSlick.

 

I didn't do it, but the dealership finally finished my ride. Added Roof Rack, Predator Steps, Blackout and the Cargo Divider. I plugged my MESO Stage 1 kit into the Black tail lights. I know the steps and roof rack are contentious around here, but I have short-wife and we kayak.

Next up this week:
- Revolver X4 (coming tomorrow)
- Modding the cargo divider to work with that
- *I think* that 4x4 sticker has to go. (wanted to wait until the rest of the black stuff got stuck on)

Christmas presents:
- MESO ultimate turn signals

Weird that the OEM roof rack touches the shark fin antenna when the cross bars are extended, even go so far as to slightly depress the rood. Has that changed design recently?

Added a Dobinsons Snorkel! Had to trim the rubber tube to get a good fit with the S&B Intake.





Carry On!

 

my next step was completed today, installed a 2" Rough Country leveling kit... 4 hours but well worth it. just gotta get rid of my chrome grille and badges
