What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It's 2 days old (to me), so went a drive up the coast, bought a bed mat, and spent about $15k in mods in my mind. Oh and scheduled a ceramic coating and window tinting appointment.

Installed REK GEN flexible mudflaps on my 2020 TRD OR and took the old ones off. The OEM ones are very stiff and and not flexible. I kept hitting them on the rocky Arizona trails and didn't want to rip them off and cause damage to other parts.

Took less than an hour for all four flaps--remove old/install new.

The REK GENs are flexible to move when hit by rocks but stiff enough not to be blown around at highway speeds. I really like them.

Came with good instructions. Only left one thing out.--You need to put back one of the OEM screws on the bottom of the existing plastic OEM fender liners at each wheel--total of four re-used OEM screws.

Rear view installed OEM on left, REK GEN on right.


View or rear installed--lined up with plastic fender liners


Rear old vs. new. The REK GEN screw into the same holes as the OEM.


Flexing of REK GEN--just what I needed.

Good Instructions with Pics.


The only tools needed 10mm socket, 3/8" socket and level.


Need to reinstall one of the OEM screws at the bottom of each of the plastic fender liners (both front and back)

 

What about -12? That’s what I’m looking at. It’s that or 0

 

Depends on the lift you have and if you have a UCA and the tires and wheel size.

I ordered some -25s and the guy was super helpful and asked about lift, UCA, tire to be used, model and year of truck. All that matters in how the fit will be and wether it will rub.

 

Were those easy to remove?

 

I was going to install my new DV8 skid today.
That is, until I opened it and saw this monstrosity.



I emailed right away and they are offering a $60 credit to keep it or return it and wait until June for a new one... Seems they gave me their last one from the bottom of the barrel.

 

This is how it SHOULD look

 

They pop right off, only held in by plastic clips.

 

Saw this today near Cincinnati, OH.

who dun’ it!?

 

What the actual fuck. Can afford airbags and suspension pieces, can’t match paint on rear panel

 

Welp, got a good bit done today to the ol' Blue Taco.

1. Got my MaxTraxx mount and board put in the bed. Easy peasy.


2. Got my Rough Rough Country seat covers on. Someone on hear suggested lifting the seats up while installing these. And tbh, I'm glad I did. Doing the seat jackers and the seats covers at the same time was a life (and time) saver. But seat jackers are covered just down below in #4.

Overall, I like them. Not too hard or difficult of an install. It does take some time. So be prepared to be patient if you go with these.

Some before pics (please forgive the mess):



After:


(I failed to get one of the rear passenger side.)

3. Cargo net in the bed. Again, easy peasy:



4. Finally, the seat jackers from Desert Does It. Y'all let me tell you something. If you have ANY hesitation to NOT buy these, put it aside and buy these things. I'm not tall at 5'5". The change is just enough to be comfortable. I did not buy any spacers for the rear parts of the seats. I might later. But for right now, it sits just right for me. The angle is just right.



Driver Side:



Passenger side:




Overall, good afternoon for some easy additions to the truck. Very happy with all of them.

 

I think you and about everyone else on here is waiting for the black or mgm vent rings lol. Once that email comes out it will be a race

 

Installed the Injen intake. A noticeable difference in sound right away. Went with this one over others due to the front air intake. Would recommend

 

what year and model do you have that requires this recall ? I haven’t got any notice on my tuck needing this

 

You can check outstanding recalls on your VIN here: https://www.toyota.com/recall

 

Judging by the raw metal on the bed bob I'm guessing they just recently did it.

 

19 Sport

 

See for me I thought he was going to have a non gel black trd style similar to the og bucket lid. That gel sticker is cheap looking to me and I hate them even on the floor mats

 

Interested to know what they say, those welds definitely should be on the back side!
