What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

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.

MT I'd prolly go 4.88's Dig into it and ask a lot of questions that's what i did. did all my math to calculate my rpms at different speeds and what not. also, glad to hear you like the harrops, I can't wait to lock em up!

 

You'll be OK. Sleep is over rated.

 

That's awesome! They do amazing work, and Heather is so nice. I'm glad I picked a good spot! Will definitely be sending everyone here.

 

@jbroke2 They're not advertised on his page, but @rrentrop (TVD Vinyl) sells vinyl overlays for the grille emblem. Just text him the year, and they fit perfectly (not solid, but rather a chrome-delete.). I ordered mine in cement grey to match my truck, and am just waiting for warmer weather to place it. Will post pics when I do.

When you do the install you want the adapter cable connector on the inside (dry side) with the door panel. You can feed the ends that connect to the speaker through the small hole in the mounting bracket. You dont want the adapter cable connector inside (wet side) where the window is. This also reduces the extra wire inside the door.

 

Added some tool mounts, and collapsible crates to keep my fuel cans from sliding around. All done for now unless anyone has any cool ideas

 

Haven’t yet, ill shoot you a PM tho with a down and dirty

 

I envision this being blindingly bright inside the cab of the truck. I recommend doing a temporary test hookup.

 

This is my solution for such a situation.

 

I put these in a few weeks ago and couldn't be happier...and they're 50% off now...
