What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Also pay attention to the position of the cabin filter when installing it. The OEM filter has a diagram on the side that shows the proper direction.

 

NICE BUMPER, ANY CUTTING TO INSTALL?

 

I don't know exactly how to describe the emotions I'm feeling right now. Some combination of resentment towards you for making me want to immediately go look, resignation at the fact that I will be doing the exact same thing because of your post, and happiness that surely this time I won't be spending a ton of money on the truck.

 

And, I know the @farmtacoma will be equally resentful. Julia?

 

Did some cheap mods with some spray paint

 

Which Tepui did you get? I have been waiting for mine since January. It suppose to arrive around the middle of next month.

 

I have a bad carrier bearing and this would be the 2nd time I change it. Also needs a u joint at the carrier bearing. So that cost with having already replaced the bearing, is the price of a new one.

 

@Devious6 I just measured these and you're right; they're M5-0.8x20mm flat head (countersunk) screws.

If anyone has 5 friends with Tacomas who also hate shiny metal, here's a 25-pack of black-oxide coated screws for $9.58. https://www.mcmaster.com/91698A732/

Or if you really wanted to be the bee's knees and shave 5.6 grams (yes, I calculated it) from your roof... there's always the titanium option for the fabulous price of $15.64 for a 5-pack! https://www.mcmaster.com/91307A015/ Not black though, so probably not worth it. @TeecoTaco might be interested in the Ti option!

 

Thanks for confirming! I bought mine at the local True Value hardware store - $.79/each. I got 2 extras just in case.

 

I dropped a slider 3 weeks ago on my left big toe and broke it. It's doing great now. Even ran across a parking lot to grab an errant shopping cart to save someone's minivan from a dent. Karma bank!

 

Thanks for the kind words. They are the N.D limits for listed depth.

 

Just got the KD Max tune. This is probably the best mod yet. A tune should have been the first thing I did after driving off the dealer lot. Truck shifts like it’s supposed to now. No more acceleration lag when you hit the pedal , or dropping gears when going up hill on highway .

You press your foot and it goes.

 

I have the Ayer 2 since it's just me most of the time. It was in stock at REI, 20% off, free shipping to store and got there in a week.

 

Sorry, really can’t get a good pic. Here’s the best I got... Road debris and bugs have chipped the paint a bit on the aluminum.

 

I HATE YOU !

No rear seat covers
Idiots sent me mazda covers in wrong colour

 

I have been considering this. I upgraded a couple past jeeps with Tom Woods shafts. They were well built with thicker splines and more slip. Can you post your impressions when it comes in? Thank you.

 

Put on an AVS Bugflector, i pretty much despise the way these things look but i drive so much highway it was a good/cheap short term hood and sorta windshield protection option

 

Nice man! That's a great deal! looks awesome on your truck

 

I did that skid thing.
