What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Finally getting a lift along with new shoes and socks. It's about damn time!

 

Thanks! Appreciate it. I honestly never thought about those.

 

Follow up for the three of y'all watching this mod project. The Amazon 3-wire sockets don't fit the Tacoma headlight fixture (different nib configuration) will either modify or find alternate socket and post whatever works when I find it.

 

He did mine a couple months ago, I love the way my truck drives now. Best mod to my truck so far, @PapaRee is very knowledgeable tuning these trucks.

 

Love it!

 

Big Bend Ranch State Park is one place that I go to fairly frequently. It is quite remote, there is no phone access, and the trails are also not patrolled regularly. In many areas you will not see another vehicle for the entire weekend, and the weather can be quite extreme, especially in the summer months. It does require a permit to access this area, and along with your regular recovery gear, they require 2 spares and C Load tires at the minimum. Although not required, I also carry a PLB for emergencies, something I started doing after having a mtn bike crash a few years ago. Fortunately at that time I was not critical, and in an area that was accessible fairly closely by truck. My grandson was able to ride back and get the truck and haul me out. As I have done a lot of remote area backpacking, I appreciate the permitting requirement, and also leave an itinerary should the unexpected happen. When I was young we used to go out on Crown lands on the east slopes of the Rockies in Alberta, hiking and motorbike packing, and disappear for days without letting people know where we were, and often weren't even too sure where we were going until we hit the trail. It was fun to explore, and only years later did I realize how foolhardy it was, but we were lucky. My mother probably went gray much earlier than she should have because of us, lol!

 

Where’d you go to get this done?

 

Toy Crawlers. Jacob is the owner and an awesome person to work with. I live up on the north west side of the burbs and they are 10 minutes away which also helps. I highly recommend them.

 

I already have a lift kit but I sure would like to have that two post lift in your picture

 

Sweet thanks, they are on my list for my eventual lift

 

Any rubbing?

 

New tailights

 

Any run-ins with Sasquatch?

 

And a place to put it!

 

Sounds more like chupacabra country.

 

I have a garage. It’s a pretty standard garage with a finished ceiling. You think my wife would be mad if I lopped off the roof to install a lift?

 

Naw I'm sure she'd be very happy with that.

 

Man this is a sweet rig looks awesome! This was my first colour choice but I was in a hurry to buy and couldn’t get one.

 

Not one bit, and my MPG stayed the same

 

this thing is sick clean. Love that stance. What’s your lift tire size and do you have any wheel spacers on?
