What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Is that just to make the wheels stick out farther?

 

What size tires you pair it with

 

Agreed! I admit I was on the lift and bigger tires bandwagon when I got my truck, but after reading that and seeing just how much of a negative impact bigger tires can have without a re-gear definitely has me going in a different direction with my build ideas.

What brand is that? I've been thinking of adding one of those and it looks like we have the same S&W so I'm thinking that would work nicely.

 

Tandem 612 CHARLIE BRONZE 17x8.5IN -12MM OFFSET ALLOY WHEEL
Toyo A/T III LT265/70/17. Planning on something. Haven't decided on a RTT in the bed or a trailer.
Stock OR '17 suspension

 

I went up one size and planned on going to a 285 in the near future. Cancel that now. I’ll stick with the 265/70/17.

 

The extra machining to make it fit better than just an aluminum spacer and the tapped holes in the front for the molle panels is why they are so expensive.
You can see the extra work over just an aluminum spacer in these 2 posts. There are tabs on them to keep everything lined and are machined to follow the profile of the floor boards.

Also the big selling point for me was the molle panel. On the driver side I have first aid, knife, and a flash light. On the passenger seat I have a zipper bag with my extra winter gloves, hat, and sol blanket.

 

Ear and Eye candy added

 

If you get the dessert does it Then you can buy one of these for under the passenger seat too.

 

I attach them to the bed deck rails with these:

Thinking I’m gonna hit up Death Valley at the end of the month. test out the water tank.

 

I think the whole point of owning a Tacoma is to turn a $30k truck into a $60k truck via accessories and upgrades, lol.

 

I am installing a set of 16x8 -12 offset wheels that I bought from a fellow TW member. Do you have any rubbing issues? How much did they move the tire sidewall out? My hillbilly calculations are a couple of inches from stock but I have been wrong before.

 

Yep

265/75/16

 

Don't have a side shot of before. I think it's noticable, but not drastic.

 

That's exactly what I was thinking when I was installing my new MESO red $25.00 push to start button.

 

Thanks that looks good. Exactly what I think they should have from the factory.

 

Hopefully you get them soon! Luckily the RR5 where in stock, I got them within 2 days of ordering.

 

It worked well. That being said, it was road salt and sand and one muddy gravel road. Dealing with offroaf dirt will be the test. Which I hope to administer soon.

I don't know that power washer, but it worked well enough with gas washer. 2800 psi Troy-Bilt.

 

Uh oh, que the anti gunners

 

Nice bronco there
