What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Forgive me if someone else responded already- haven’t read through all posts. I’m pretty sure the weather tech and/or husky mats come with a stab-in style anchor for both sides. Maybe that part can be retrofitted?

 

Pics! Lol

 

I’m dropping my taco off to get a 2inch rough country leveling kit, xd grenade bronze wheels 0 offset put on ridge grapplers 265 70 17 today. Can’t wait.

 

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!

I thought about this while driving to work this morning in my 3rd Gen, congrats to all the LSU fans here - good to see another team take the title. I wish I lived in an area that was more excited about college football. College games definitely take a 2nd seat to the Pro teams around here. Bill in MA

 

Yes, they are normally a white DRL that would work in tandem with the stock DRL on my OR. There is a dim function on these which is a simple signal input that brings them from 900 lumens down to 90 lumens. Shouldn't be blinding at night. I just bought the V6 Triton according to the site's recommendation. If you buy them don't forget to use TOYOTA10 for 10% off your order.

Will post them once they are received, installed and verified working lol.

 

Yes, You can buy the tab part for the mats. I believe the company that make it is call Eagle Claws. Hope this help.

 

I know the owners of the tint shop, they are my parents neighbors. They have tinted more vehicles than I can count for friends and family. They always do a great job. I can only think of one person who had an issue with the tint on one window. They immediately made it right with no push back at all. Also, I know the area pretty well because I work right down the street.

 

What did I do to to my 3rd Gen today.....well, after spending half the night celebrating the National Champion LSU Tigers and their dismantling of another team, I got in said 3rd Gen and managed to crawl into work. That's really about it, I need a nap.

GEAUX TIGERS!!!!

 

Haven't wired it up yet, but here's my 9" light bar attached to some headrest prongs.


It's raised in this pic. Might add a smoke vinyl to make it less visible from outside.


I do not plan on doing this as it's dangerous - but I find the idea funny.

 

No problem! Feel free to PM if needed. I ran the wires down the passenger-side A-pillar (plastic pry tool to remove the screw covers on the grab-handle, remove the screws, and carefully pull free of the retaining clips) and tucked all the extra wire (even the standard kit had plenty of wire) into the space between the passenger side of the dash and fender. Trickiest part was running the wires into the glove box for the battery backup, and behind the center stack to reach the fuse box, but after spending the past 13 years modding a little Scion tC, there's so much more room in this truck. Lol.

Remember to take it slow and careful working around the airbags in the pillars and headliner.

 

I won’t do it with this truck but best thing I ever had for weight, was half a load of gravel in my first truck. It was just a 2wd, but that and some chains when needed and it did damn good.

 

Looks good! What’s the setup?

 

That looks awesome, any right up?

 

Sleep light concept too.

 

Installed the Big 4 over the weekend

 

Installed the 2020 grill, looks pretty sweet on the MGM.

Also installed the CaliRaised hidden light bar. Not hard to install, and really changes the look to the front of my truck.

 

Man that grill is sharp...if they toyota emblem could be blacked out/get rid of the chrome i'd take off my pro grill for it.

 

I'm AT. I decided on 5.29 over 4.88 mainly because i do tow a travel trailer with my Tacoma and wanted the extra power. i'm still in break in and havn't really broken 65 mph. but honestly it's hard to tell much of a difference so far. i did go from stock tires and stock ratio straight to 33's and 5.29's and never ran the 33's but maybe 5 miles on the stock ratio. In town truck shifts through the gears much faster, but i'm cruising 6th gear by 45mph. Biggest change i've noticed is that it actually uses 6th gear and it holds 6th very well down the highway. Can't wait to complete the break in and give her a little more and log some towing miles.

 

I only have my 1st gen to go by as far as re-gears go, but it made all the difference. I'll definitely do it on my 3rd gen eventually, I just need to do some research on which ratio will go best with the MT and 34s.
