What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

AAAAAAIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

 

It’s a valid question and thing to think about. I’ve always had them on my Tacos but I used to live in Cali and would always be in Mexico, Big Bear, J-Tree or SLO. My truck got it’s use and carried more weight than I wanted at times. I won’t be doing that stuff in this Taco sans the upland hunts we do throughout the year. It’s more preventative and I like the extra tie downs that Total Chaos offers. I have the Diamondback HD and will be hauling a quad occasionally, so for me, it’s because I’m not used to having a Taco without them and better safe than sorry if I decide to test the 1600 lbs capacity of my DB.

Also, Black Friday sale, which is still going for these made it easier to do. I think it’s around $156 shipped.

 

Mine has been on for several months over a wide variance of temperatures with absolutely no problems, sure somebody didn't mess with it?

 

Meso total tail stage 1 and redline hood struts. 2 great bang for the bux.

 

Thanks

 

Like it a lot! Want to do it to my truck. I have the BSM light built into my mirror. Do you know if these mirrors will work with that?

 

This is going to be a long week. Take my word for it, no pictures needed. Finally got my truck back from the local dealership after having the engine pulled for crank seal replacement (timing chain cover leak) yesterday.

So I was thrilled to have it back, until today when I parked it in the garage, popped the hood to find the hose from the radiator to the overflow was detached...

Then underneath, coolant was running along the driver's side and center, dripping down from the tranny pan and bell housing...

Of course it's most likely headed back to the dealer in the morning, unless it were a hose or connection that's leaking... Which I can't find anywhere. Ran a pressure test, and even ran the truck for a minute, then crawled under to see if I could find anything... Nothing. Any ideas?

 

Installed a Taco Garage DSM mount and Tackform phone holder.

The two little holes are explained in my radio install thread... I figure if the holes are going to have to be there, might as well use them for the lightning cable.

What is that cable management?

 

I just tucked it in to the plastic. It's super easy. The dash cam comes with a little trim tool that helps hide the wires

lol tell me about it!

post up some pics when you get those mounted!

 

Looks like a Tundra

 

Installed the rear King shocks made for a Tundra to get a little more travel from the rear end . Now the truck sits on Kings front and rear . Also installed the remote start from 12 volt solutions. No pic's of that

 

I'm drooling right now.

 

Added some lights to my grille

 

Sounds good. Thanks for the info. Looking forward to installing it. Been wanting one for a while.

 

If you can, PM me a pic of the two you have. Numbers aren't important. I just liked the color you had. Matches my truck as well.
