What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Picked her a few moments ago. 2020 from the Dallas area to Florida panhandle. They left Frisco Tx around 4 and met me at 7:40, punctual and professional guys. It’s a bit too cold to wash it though

 

This is in a 2021 SR DCSB. Got 1/2 sheet of plywood from Lowes and had them cut one piece (base) 52" x 23.5" and the back (52" x 20"). Got a can of Gorilla spray adhesive, 3 hinges and carpet. If you get the 3' width you'll need 12'.

Cut angles on top corners of back, spray adhesive on plywood, cover plywood and wrap to back and stapled with staple gun. Added hinges and done. Altogether about $80.

Credit to others on TW who posted great information that made this pretty easy.

Some folks cut slits where brackets from seats attached. I used eye hooks and then put a piece of carpet where the wood meets the metal bracket to prevent the rattling. Drove a couple hours over the weekend and happy with the setup. Thanks again to the great folks here for posting the info!

 

Bad photo skills but hopefully you get the gist. Covered up those ugly warning stickers/badges on the visors with some blackout and bling...

Looks great. Same tires I’m considering. However maybe a different size. What are 34s? 285/70/17? Or. You have a cmc?

 

I used a large SS nut and aircraft grade replacement bolts. I think it cost me $10...

 

Quality ain't cheap.

Just go to the site and fill in the proper information in the drop down boxes. They aren’t sold in pairs but individually. Heat and BSM still work properly. They’re not cheap but as a safety mod they’re hard to beat in my opinion. The ones that I required were on sale last week, not sure if they still are or not.

I see that Mark gave you the part numbers, sweet.

 

You know you’re right! I had the partial beard earlier this year, that would have been even more of a resemblance!

 

If it were $100 for front two seats and rear...maybe but not for two aluminum blocks. Just my opinion...

 

Nah brah those are like 32s that you listed.

 

Rav4 Radio Knobs installed. Nice upgrade.

 

To be honest, if I had not already bought them and knew what a big difference they make, I'd feel just like you. I sometimes think I miss out on a lot of good stuff because I judge according to price and my own sense of value. And BTW, they were cheaper when I bought them.

 

That was a good read, thanks for sharing!

 

Nice long royals! Did you stick him with an arrow?

 

Just got back from having these wheels mounted. Like the look. No more snowflake wheels, will likely sell them soon. Two tires had to be rotated a bit to avoid excessive weight to balance. Likely the tires (Goodyear Ultraterrain) and the lighter wheel.

 

Thanks Art! Luckily haven’t got stuck yet but I agree that the aluminum version seems plenty strong enough. We’re happily plodding along in southern Baja right now and loving. Typing this listening to the crashing waves of the Pacific. We’ll starting to update our website now. Didn’t feel right since the COVID thing and all.

 

Installed OEM TRD Grille, had to modify the camera bracket to "fit", Raptor lights, Baja Fog lights, Demon brackets and D-ring shackles. Oh, and lots of beers!!

 

What did you use for the black letters? I've gone through a few decals from vinyl overlays to tufskinz ones and they are okay, and replacement black letters but don't fit for the OEM grille

 

Looks top notch! Still waiting on my RR6-H's where seem to be stuck on the ship which is stuck at the ports.

 

Drool - love these wheels!
