What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Lol! I removed my stock TRDOR suspension.
Installed TRD Pro. Wow. Added 1" to the front, and the ride is fabulous.

 

Does it slip around when you are loading things?

 

I found mine off of Facebook marketplace for like $220, you can get a much better deal that way. But here’s an Amazon link for them!

Been wanting to paint these & finally got it done

 

Installed TRD Pro Grill Red Letter Vinyls by @tvdvinyldecals

 

I too like some of the interior chrome that provides some nice contrast, but that said... that's gonna cause some blinding reflection at some point.(I'm sure you're aware) Still, it's got me envisioning how black chrome would look.

 

Nice looking rig. Is that an OR OE wheels with wraps and 265/70/16 Duratracs?

 

Thanks, the truck is kinda plain, but functional, and yes, they are the OE OR wheels with wraps, but with 265/75 16 Duratracs. I had bought the TRD Pro suspension a few weeks ago, but wasn't't able to find the time to install it. Fortunately I unexpectedly got Friday afternoon off, and with my wife at work, I was able to work uninterrupted and knocked it out in about 3 hours. It is a huge improvement over the OR suspension, and I am looking forward to getting out to Big Bend during Thanksgiving to check them out off road, loaded with all my camping and recovery gear and bikes.

 

@MNlaw
I have similar setup but with a prinsu and a renogy panel, fed through the roof through the meso thinfin. What I do like is your flush mount panel. I bought the renogy mounting brackets. What brackets do you have? Wondering as I'd like to get some, thanks!

 

Finally got all the paint done and some time to install everything.
@CBI Offroad Fab belly skids and @ragofabrication LCA skids.
Now I need CBI to make their gas tank skid for a long bed.

Skuff in the middle is just from my hands on the flat black. Still pretty happy with my HF HVLP sprayer and the Implement Paint from TS.

 

Nice custom touches!

You paid 50k for a Tacoma?
I’d hope it comes with complimentary sunglasses for all that chrome. Looks good, just not my taste.

 

Add a pair of 12 inch o-tracks to the bed to go with the two bigger ones. Still need to grab 2 more of the 4 foot sections next time I am at fleetfarm. They had 2 versions of the 12 inch track, some had only 2 mounting holes, some had 3 mounting holes. I grabbed the 3 mounting hole ones to be extra secure.

 

Thank you sir!

 

Got rid of some chrome!!! Painted the grille and took care of the emblems while I was at it!

 

Just be aware that these are not good running boards to have if you plan to go off road at all as the steps hang about 3 inches lower than the rails and, as they are body mounted, can cause rocker panel damage if bottomed out.

 

That's some kinda ride! What sliders are those? I'd love to see some pics of your taco in action

 

I really hope he was exaggerating

 

Nice set up!

 

Rip that chin strap off and that front end will pop

 

Probably not. Who would fabricate paying that much?
