What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

What wheels and specs and what lift and specs and what tires and specs did you go with?

 

yes, these are the Method 305 NVs 17-8.5 6-5.5 zero offset. Probably going to switch out the bolts for black ones

 

Actually, it’s been longer than that. I pulled my brand new wheels out of the box, removed all the protection, cleaned and double coated them with Dr B’s. I put them back in the bed until they were installed a few months later. They’ve been on the truck for 8 months, so it’s probably been closer to a year. I definitely want to coat them again as soon as weather and schedule allow.

 

went with 285/70/17 Toyo AT3s on method 305s. Icon lift front coil overs and rear shocks. BMC to fit the tires and kept the stock UCAs...for now haha

 

Nice!

 

The Baja designs looks sick but I’m stuck staring at your headlights! Are those the stock pro lights, morimoto, or alpharex? Looks awesome all together

 

Just got my Fuel BLITZ Wheels installed. I think they look way better then the Stock wheels. Stock OR wheels do look good too but I really like the look of the BLITZ wheels.

 

Those are stock TRD PRO’s. You can actually see “TRD” on the passenger side and “PRO” on the driver’s side illuminated on the headlights.

 

looks killer man! Thanks for the info!

 

Looks a lot better than stock. What are the specs on your wheels aka size etc and on your tires....

 

Installed OEM Roof Rack....

One suggestion, put the bolts through the foam washer and then start bolt before adhering washer to Taco. This helped me get better alignment on washer. On the first side I was off just a tad...

 

how was the install on this? Was it easy to get the stock stripping off?

 

Pretty productive day!

Installed the MESO stage 1 tail lights, used Velcro to tuck away the little control box.

Attempted install of MESO puddle light switch. But apparently it doesn't work for the 3rd gen. Bummer because it's a great idea, and let's you use them as ditch lights on the fly.

Installed a set of greasable pins for my Dobinson leafs. They made these bolts shorter to prevent rubbing and still give you access to the zerk fitting. But for some reason it's still making contact on the passenger side...I didn't have time to file/cut off the tip of it or figure out why it's different. Strange to me that they wouldn't match...manufacturing variance maybe?

 

Your truck looks good but the Jeep behind it is another story. Who in their right mind mounts 50 lbs of steel in front of the windshield???

 

I needed a place for a large water bottle because the cup holders are too small. I made this MOLLE hanger for my camelback pouch.

 

The puddle switch is supposed to be installed in the small switch opening. It wasn't designed for the tall switch.

 

I think the bolt should face AWAY from the hanger, btw. That will keep it clear.

Also, the switch opening you are trying to use is the toyota "tall" ones and the MESO switch is a toyota "short" switch.

 

Tire rotation and then meso ultimate turn signal install.

 

You could move the ECT button as noted a few pages back. Then the mirror light switch could go there.

 

My ex gf. I always thought it was sketchy. Its a high lift jack. Apparently they do that stuff idk
