What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Love your truck! What lift are you running? Any issues with the safety sensor and that nonsense system?

 

Thanks man, it's running the Eibach pro truck. No issues at all with sensors and such!

 

Took the drive to mainland overland
And had my dobinson struts springs and shock, Head strong 1/4 spacers both sides, just put in with Dakar med leaf pack. Also had installed Spc ucas ecgs bushing and be ko2 285/70/17. Couldn’t be the happier. Going to do a review of my experience later. Looks about level maybe a tad nose high but I will be putting a winch in soon so that will add weight up front . But I’m sure it’ll settle no rubbing at all anywhere

 

Swapped out the in-dash tweeters a month or so ago. Just got these delivered today so kind of pumped to get all of the door speakers swapped out this weekend. I feel like I caught a decent deal on them. Crutchfield had them for $189 shipped when I originally did the dash speakers so I decided to hold off a bit and got them for $164 shipped and of course with the free brackets and plug and play harnesses from Crutchfield on Monday.

Also finally able to catch the Me-So headlight trim plates in MGM back in stock last week so those will be going in this weekend as well.

 

I got my speakers from Crutchfield but they advised against the Kicker speakers for the doors. Said the factory headunit didn't have enough ass to drive them.

 

They didn't steer me in another direction....odd. Of course, I went with all of the positive recommendations here and around the net. I'm going to go with what I have with fingers crossed that it works, but now I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit worried.

If you don't mind me asking, what did they recommend to you?

 

Installed the pro skid today. A little bit of a pain in the ass to do by yourself. Love the look of it though.

 

They recommended MTX speakers for the doors and that's what I went with. The 6x9's (Front) wouldn't fit in the supplied brackets so I sent them back. They recommended Pioneer's as replacements so I went with them. So I have Kicker Tweeters and Pioneer TS-G690's in the Front, MTX Terminator6's in the rear. They sound fine to me but I'm no golden ear. Can't really say if Crutchfield steered me wrong or right since I never heard the Kicker door speaker. Hope you're satisfied with them. Report back when you get them installed.

 

Mine's done it every time I used the parking brake after an under carriage wash at the local car wash. I stopped using the parking brake for the night after the car wash. I've heard it's easier to get it to release in reverse, but I back into my driveway too and can't reverse out of it.

 

Ubolt flip kit with superbump bump stops and icon rxt leafs. Upgrading the rear shocks in the near future.

 

Is the TRD red?

 

TOYOTA dealer ship. eBay has em too.

Do you have the Jl audio radio?

 

Anyone here in TW recommend an upgrade on speakers for a 2020 Tacoma? I have JBl premium audio radio. Preferably an Add on. I just want a little more bass.

 

Nope its not.

 

After driving all winter without a 3rd brake light, I finally got one installed on my soft top... its not plugged in yet, but at least its there. I need to find a good plug and play solution to hook it up. I am 100% against cutting, splicing, or using wire taps on the factory harness.

 

It was. I spray painted it gray. I thought the letters would pop right off when I saw the tabs on the back. But they seemed to be stuck on with some adhesive as well. So I just taped them off and sprayed. I’m sure someone here has taken them off before. It would’ve been so much easier if they were off.

Just rolled 1000 miles today.

Started to install the AC drain mod then realized itll be much easier to put it on a lift so gonna take it to buddies shop tomorrow for that.

 

I'm also reluctant to hack up the factory wiring. One option that you may want to consider is to use one of these.

You could use it to get easy access to the brake light wiring. It would require a minor mod, but that would be to the adaptor harness - not the truck. PM me if you have questions.
