What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I’m pretty short. I figure it will look pretty cool implanted in my forehead. Or would that be dope? Not sure anymore.

Thankfully it’s symmetrical and you won’t be able to tell it’s mirror imaged

 

I actually have an OEM air bag that I will be deploying into a dummy to test this. I‘m coming out with an emblem overlay and want to test this for my own info and reassurance. With how close it has to deploy, I don’t think it will make any difference. If you’re crashing at that speed.. there’s other things I’d be more concerned about.

First one with a MESO logo branded in their forhead gets 50% off!

 

No need to hide it. Just buy this and plug it into the mirror.

I assume the cover of the steering wheel is scored to allow it to separate upon deployment so that the existing emblem is pushed away from the driver.

 

Anyone make an overlay for that steering wheel emblem in Quicksand color yet? I saw where some folks were starting to work on overlays for it.

 

completed her first oil change, only had 3052 miles. I made a oil mess of things since it was my first time with this oil filter. Added a Fumoto oil drain valve.

 

Damn every time I see that mobtown it looks better and better. Nice job!

 

I did my first spill and fill at 1000 km. Next one at 4000 km. And every 4k after that. Thats metric for you Merica types!

 

I’ll forgo the discount if I can just be first in line for products.... Hell, for that, I’ll be your test dummy.

 

Installed the other bike mount so I can go ride with a partner.

 

Went from 4Runner TRD PRO wheels back to stock


So I can sell the PRO wheels and eventually put these on

Ceramic coated them too

 

'66. My son spent the last year rebuilding it.

 

That’s a great idea. All kinds of options with this.

@RivetNutBob and @RallySOP check this out. This might be a great option for you guys since you have not been able to get the front hitch y’all were looking for.

It's OK. My jack stands are Powerfisters, built in a different Chinese labor camp

To be serious though, I jacked up on the pumpkin just to get the tires an inch off the ground, so I could rotate the driveshaft and get a better angle for prying.

 

Got rid of that useless, bubbling Qi charger and put the TPAM on.

 

Please post a video of this test!

 

The OEM emblem is made of a really pliable plastic. I tried prying it a good 1/4" away from the airbag cover, and all the pegs stretched without breaking. No doubt it's designed to stay with the airbag cover when the cover blows open.

The back side of the cover is molded with deep valleys that will be the break seams when the airbag deploys. One seam runs horizontally just below the emblem. The OEM emblem is designed to stay with the top flap.

 

I have looked at this but I would have to modify it to exit where the license plate mounts for my purposes. I do love Mobtown products. I have their indestructible rock sliders and think they are the best designed bolt ons in the market.

I also want the plate protection of the slimline bumper. I’ll probably get the sso bumper and have a local shop weld a receiver to it.

 

I stalled my bed stiffeners today. Plan was to install my new wheels, tires, fox 2.5 with dsc this weekend and hope my Uptop bravo dual racks shipped but UPS and Fedex failed. Now I have 3 of 5 wheels starting me down in my garage and a weekend working the house instead of the truck. Oh well. Staring and these wheels are killing though. We’re back ordered 3 weeks ago when I ordered.

 

Got the Lomax from @GotExhaust
Great price and great cover! He said he has the same cover on his truck and loves it. Always nice to hear the guy that sells them approves! Almost went for the diamondback but the lomax was 1/2 the price. And a lil more low profile tooand for my needs I don’t need something so burly. So far I love mine
