What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

This thing is perfect for them Redneck Chicks holding on for dear life. I like it.

 

It’s been a while since I posted a picture of my Tacoma. I figure that new wheels and tires are a good enough reason. I’ve been sitting on the wheels for more than a year. The tires were purchased today.



Falken Wildpeak AT3s 255/80-17
T4R pro wheels
And for the inevitable questions
No rub
Bilstein 5100s front and rear on
OME 888 and medium dekars.

 

Can’t open this link or find it on group buy. How much is the GB price? Thanks Jim

 

Sorry bout that. No idea why link isn't working.
Try this one:

It's 10% off your order.

 

If I decide to take the topper off for good and get something else, then I will consider to get those tiedown rails including the bike mounts.

 

Just got back from my Toyota Care oil change/tire rotation. Got a couple of comments about my truck too!

 

Had the exterior of mine detailed last fall. When I went to pick it up, guy that did the work would point to one thing after another saying "I love that." and "I just love this truck." and "Uh, I had to turn it around, so I took it around the block. Hope you don't mind." Meh.

He detailed the engine compartment free of charge and I didn't even ask for that.

 

Looks good! Any shots from the front or rear?
I have the same wheels and am trying to decide which route to go, 255/80/17 or 275/70/17.

 

They'll be on the BST forums in the next couple weeks so just keep an eye out if you're interested.

 

Thank you! I’ll post some as soon as I get home.

 

Well I set out to switch back to my stock SR5 grill after painting 4 coats of matte black on it but bc of the humidity and my impatience, I screwed the pooch. Went to put it all together and had finger smudges and peeled the paint off the Toyota symbol, so I abandoned ship and put the Faux pro grill back. I waste so much time not accomplishing a damn thing.

 

Just upgraded both sides heated mirrors (Not blind spot but available) to aspherical from the UK (current Hilux model) - $90 for both sides with shipping ($45) being half the cost. The passenger side is the same minus the“Objects are closer then they appear“ - so a waste of money unless the writing bugs you (it does me).
The drivers side is a huge improvement with an increased field of vision in the +40% range. Understand that the“Objects are closer then what they appear“ applies so a little caution should be exercised until you are used to it. Easiest upgrade with 5 minutes a side and if you buy just the drivers side ($25) and cheaper shipping it makes a great upgrade.

Go to ebay/uk and look for.....Toyota Hi-Lux Mk5 Pickup 5/2015-> Heated Convex Mirror Glass Passenger Side and since they are right hand drive it would be the passenger side mirror....

 

I’m not sure why everyone calls them skinnies, they are less than 1/2” narrower than stock. Here you go:

 

Do they have the BSM warning light or heated mirror coils?

 

You really want that group buy to go though I see a lot of these posts from you. lol

 

It is good to know that I am not the only one ... so thanks for that !

 

Link?

 

Am I an overlanding guy now?

 

Doin truck stuff

 

It's already begun, and since Maxtrax typically don't go on sale, I thought people might be interested.
