What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Nice job tying it all together and making us hungry in the process!

 

Where did you get those fender flairs? Been looking for a set.

 

Pretty cool day ! i got my set off Quick Fists to finish my shovel/axe mounts....I also got my 2nd Tsunami Compressor. Im gonna see if I can pull of that 2 compressor + tank air system Ive seen. If it doesnt work out i have a back up compressor , hehe. BUT, the great news is my SOS sliders are ready to ship ! That is the coolest news ever , we are half way there. I also got this Lamin-X yellow (crap i think) to try to put on my fog lights. If that doesnt work Im gonna just cave in and get those amber squadrons to relieve my pain. Have a kick ass evening Tacoma Fam !

 

Getting drunk reading this thread

 

In all this has anyone checked out the band I was referring to? Trying to steer topic back on track.

David Allen Coe, then George Jones, and then Chris Stapleton. All good, but I like Chris version the best.

 

Had my Redline Tuning gas struts on the porch waiting for me when I got home. These mark the first official cuts into the truck outside of the holes in the rain gutter weather stripping for the roof rack earlier this week. Give me time... I have to start slowly. I followed the directions almost to a tee, but deviated a bit by pre-drilling the holes in the fender for the ball mounts. I also gave a few small sprays of touch-up paint into all of the holes and hit them with a heat gun prior to riveting the mounts onto the hood and fenders. Looking great!

 

Looks cold man ......Diggin that roof rack though !!! hehe. Wish i could get one those bad boys.

 

I too was a bit worried about taking the power drill to the sheet metal, but it's all good. I've not heard of anyone really screwing up this installation although there's probably a few. I also sprayed painted the holes drilled but I was afraid the enormous pressure exerted by the pop rivets would just scrap it off. So I put a healthy glob of gun grease in and around the holes. Hope that keeps the rust devils away.

This is great economical upgrade.

 

Got some new shoes and an alignment today.

 

Looks great !! Im liking my Duratracs !

 

Imagene how much easier it would have been to put in that very beautifully done fuse box if you had done that first!

 

Has this thread been made yet?

 

I had some Goodyear Duratrac’s installed today 265/75/16 on stock suspension and wheels ... I installed the spidertrax 1.25 a couple weeks ago ... other than they look great, are quieter than I thought they’d be and they ride comfortably on the road ... you’ll have t wait for some off road thoughts ... oh and slight rub full lock on mudflaps

 

I think that the routine maintenance and wiring all the accessory installs will be MUCH easier from here on out.

 

Heaven!

 

Not that I am aware of.
