What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Forgot to post it earlier but also installed the Pro skid plate. It's built pretty solid and I like how it looks as well as the added coverage.

 

Any difference between snailarmor and mountain hatch in terms of material-wise??

 

Very nice!

 

Aluminum vs plastic.

 

There is another option available now.

Interesting, are you getting vftunner then buying the kd tune and uploading it yourself?

I'm in Germany and already have tactrix cable so I've thought about it but I thought I read he would only sell the tune to "Tuners".

 

I used the harness so that the Homelink was off when the truck was off.

 

So I know I haven't posted in a while, been kinda busy with work and had a melanoma scare (everything is fine with that) so I finally got some long overdue installs done over the weekend, Prinsu Rack and CaliRaised Bed Molle Rack. Maxtrax Universal mount is on order from R4T and new RotoPax on the way for the molle mount. Follow Up pics soon. If your planning on getting the molle rack and have the OEM bed liner you will have to cut out a small 1"x3" corner of the liner to accommodate for the bed body brackets.

 

Installed a @MESO gasshole compliments of my friend @Gregthespy as a truck warming gift

 

Made brackets to mount my axe, shovel and tracks.

Any one know of or can share a link to a front grill trim ring for the Tacoma. 2018 model trd sport. I’m looking to delete the chrome trim ring. Hoping for an over lay type item if it out there.

 

I’m not sure the part number, but try searching 2018 Tacoma grill bezel. That should bring up what you’re looking for.

Some also remove and plasti dip or paint them. Cheaper option than the 100 or so bucks for a new one.

 

Interesting. Make sure the aluminum if you guys have it doesn't touch any of the steel bed. It's called galvanic corrosion....two dissimilar metals touching. So in this case the steel will sacrifice itself for the aluminum. Just a word of caution.

 

Installed the cold air intake over the weekend.

 

It's fully powder coated.

 

Wet Okole seat covers and the inner CV boot mod to keep them from rubbing.

 

Good catch! I use a hood hinge mount for my HAM antenna and have to remove it/unscrew it from the base when going through the car wash. The antenna base is aluminum and the hinge mount base is steel/chrome. Noticed it had gotten hard to unscrew then I realized the dissimilar metals thing and added a layer of Anti-seize. No more "hard to get unscrewed" now.
