What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah I pretty much left it exactly where I used the other day and set up the mount. I drove for about an 1 and a half today and used the A/C and it worked perfect for me.

 

Phone only blocks seek knob on head unit (never used it anyway)

 

What is that phone mount you have? Did you have to modify it or the dash trim to make it work?

 

Probably easier to use some spray or film tint?

 

without the sway bar is not bad at all. I was worried at first but with icon delta joints and coilovers it’s a bit stiffer anyway and when you hit holes with one tire now it doesn’t rock the hole truck. And you can really feel the suspension doing it’s job. And not to much body role either. If you have aftermarket suspension I would definitely take the sway bar off

 

I think one or the other needs to go. A little too crowded.

 

Any rubbing?

 

A "real" New England clambake would be interesting with the fire heated rock pit, seaweed, clams, mussels, lobsters, corn on the cob and a canvas tarp steaming the whole thing and keg beer. Maybe once I retire I'll look into it. Still places around New England that do the real deal. I'm a year and a half away (depending on my 401k) until I retire. Plenty of campgrounds up here to accommodate folks that travel. Could be one hell of an event and a good chance to meet one another, show off our rides and just have one heck of a good time! Live band wouldn't hurt either. I'll need to think on this some. Right now just talking out my arse but.......

Now I'm hungry!!

 

Why not use a Steelie mount? They make a suction cup that's awesome for the windshield and you can move it around to suit you.

 

Doesn’t look as bad when you back up (there’s a telephone pole right next to my truck) but most likely the Tacoma badge will be going

 

I have this mount and have it on the passenger side center vent, just so I wouldn’t lose that vent functionality closest to me. It actually works great from the further vent and doesn’t block the view of my radio or my dash.

 

would love to hear more about this!

 

Got a couple things done the other day, used my truck for actual truck stuff, then picked up a black exhaust tip from the dealer and installed my Morimoto HIDs. I made the brackets the day before they got here so when they showed up all I had to do was wore them up. I thought they would match the color temp of the Morimoto fogs but they are definitely not as pure white, since this I’ve had the bulbs on for a few drives and they have gotten better but still a little blue.

 

go with a 259 style mount and antenna. HRO sells them cheap. That is the setup I am going with this week.

 

I have that too.

Suction cup sucks in hot weather. It keeps falling off. It acts like the sun heat the suction cup and glue loosen up and BAM! It came off. I like Hondo mount way better and stable.

I like DMM too. I am considering to get this much later. First I plan to get the mods done first. Such as light bar, top rack for topper, etc.

 

Beautiful setup, what is the tire size/specs?

 

There is a suction cup mount that is worth buying. 3 years in full sun and all through the winter and it never came off even once, rock solid. I purchased it and another for the wifes on Subaru but she didn't like it stuck to her windsheld. If anyone is interested I can go back through my orders and see if it is still available. Only suction cup mount that I ever found that worked and it even held my Garmin. Cheap too around $20.

 

Anyone have a best price on an OEM, not aftermarket Toyota roof rack?

 

Let's see what you got, Maybe I have same one. I save it in the storage in my truck.
