What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got it dirty with many friends today at BHM off road test facility.

 

If you turn on the charger, do the keys dance with St. Elmo's fire?

;-)

 

I put 5100s with ome 887 up front and a 1” block in the rear. I would like to change the rear shocks and aal but not happening right now.

 

that route is certainly more durable. I dipped mine before switching to a pro grille. Was on for a year through heavy winter. Pounded it with the pressure washer many times and didn’t peel. Nor did I get any rock chips. I did get some rock chips in my hood scoop though. One of these days maybe I’ll wrap it instead.

 

Honestly never knew what the hell it was lol. It’s been a change/junk tray the whole time.

 

What did you do as far as prep and application for all those little parts in the grill? Or did you just do the border around the insert?

 

I took the chrome surround piece apart from the grill. Just cleaned it with alcohol and dipped it.

 

Ah ok I was thinking you plasti dipped the actual grill insert as well as the surround.

 

probably the first time I've seen a fully built tacoma sitting on stock tires lol. Its like putting a BMW engine in a tacoma

 

Put a tonneau cover on and put my dash cam in.

 

ha! I sold my Volks/33” last night. Got something else in the works ...speaking of BMW/performance, I’ll be mainly driving my Lexus V8 for now

 

I installed a Garmin Mini dash cam and I can’t for the life of me connect to it with my iPhone using their app and aim the damn thing though. Very frustrating.

 

thats a nice lexus. My friend has a 1991 and a 1995 Lexus LS400 and both are slammed

 

thanks! I no longer want to ride slammed, I’m on KW V3s and it’s a comfy ride at this height.

 

I have to "join" mine every time I connect to it. Do you get the message asking to join the camera network?

 

I do and it fails to connect EVERY TIME. I’m actually on my second one since I thought it was something wrong with the first one I got.

 

Make sure the phones Bluetooth is disconnected from the truck. If mine is connected to the truck it won't connect to the camera at the same time.

 

Oh god that sounds awful. Do you need it connected to the camera all the time or just to change settings/aim it? I always use Bluetooth for music in the truck. I couldn’t switch back and forth all the time.

 

I've had mine in my truck roughly ~2 months now. I've had no issues thus far. I'm not sure what everyone else is running as far as phones go, but mine is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. I'm able keep the phone's Bluetooth connected to the truck even when I have to turn on wifi to download an image or small video.

However, I do agree, even using the app, aiming it can be somewhat problematic. Doesn't always look right.

As you can tell from this photo earlier today , this probably needs a small amount of adjusting.
