    Ordered some 75w90 gear oil for my rear diff...I'm concerned that I might have taken some water when I launched my fishing boat. The lake was very shallow and water was all the way to the bumper...so drain and refill, I'll be looking at raising the breather valve, relocating it to a higher level. I normally use Mobil1 engine oil (extended service) but for the diff I chose Amsoil...i also like that Amsoil comes is squeeze pouches so no fumbling with funnels...others should do the same!

    So if you were gonna find a different Tacoma to upgrade from an 2009 and wanted to spend up to $35k +- what would you look for? 2nd Gen with low miles or 3rd Gen ? And the what to avoid in the 3rd Gen ? Gotta have 4x4, back up camera, blue tooth. Thanks for input

    ny vehicle after 2015 will have a back up camera, 2020 has all around. Bluetooth is pretty standard on all models, the steering wheel controls may not be on earlier 3rd gen SR :confused: :notsure:

    Is this the one everyone’s putting into their trucks? Replaced my door speakers and tweeters with Kickers- very unimpressed, however, people are telling me that replacing my non-JBL head unit will make all the difference.
    Another note- my bud’s ‘16 with the JBL and sub sounds 10 times better than mine. Super jealous. :jellydance:

    Have you done any sound dampening to your door panels? This will make a big improvement.

    I use codes for my phone number Craigslist- had a lot of BS callers and spam texting before. But pictures in here- I don’t care. If you stalk me through here and my license plate- let’s talk Tacos! I’d love to meet friends through here :fistbump:

    No, I haven’t. Have you done it? If so, how thick, how much, and where?
    I’ve seen a lot of threads or posts about it, but can’t find it anywhere again.

    I’m getting my hood wrapped in matte black vinyl in a few hours. I’ll post pictures when it’s finished.

    I have not done anything extravagant like others but I have used a 1/8" closed foam with self adhesive backing on my door panels, kick panels and panels around the steering wheel while I had them off to do install the N2 remote start module. Also installed some on the inside of the outer skin when replacing the speakers in the doors. Anything that will reduce road noised and create a barrier between the front and back of the speaker will be an improvement.

    That's why I am looking for good looking seat cover. The seats don't quite feel like leather to me; if they are it's not Italian!!

    Added a Borla exhaust a few weeks ago, just can’t get the stock and new videos to upload. Anyone know how?
