What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I remember reading something about your same issue somewhere possibly in this thread. I think the high and low were crossed. Anyway, there was a gentleman from Tuscon, AZ I think that had his email address in this thread that makes custom harnesses if you want to try another vendor. @blaklabl would know how to contact him. Also a YouTube video that might help.

I got a smoking deal on a very lightly used bed cover on offerup for $450. Installed today and added the TRD cold intake. Also hit the 2k mile mark on the odometer.

 

$450 is a steal for that MX4. Nice find.

 

Thanks for that, I thought I remembered reading that post, if when I switch them it doesn’t work then I’ll go another route. If it does work, then I’m zip tying the connectors together. Should’ve gotten from someone on the forum.

 

I switched them, and it’s a failure. Just turned on the passenger high when the low was on, still not both on when the high was on.

 

How frustrating! I don't think the gentleman that makes the harnesses on the thread I linked is a member anymore (possibly banned, not 100% sure), but several have purchased harnesses from him in that thread and have been happy. I'll probably do the same one of these days when I can stomach the cost of the trd pro led headlights. For a $400 or so factory option Toyota is really charging a lot to retro fit these trucks, but damn does it look good and make a huge difference.

 

I know, it’s not cheap. If they don’t work right it makes me feel like I got some e bay knockoff. Funny thing is I ordered them from the company and they sell them in pairs but somehow only got one, and was only charged for one. The customer service was great and I got another one, I think with a slight discount. Guess I’ll reach out to them again first. See if I can’t get one that works.

 

I'm confused. So you swapped the left and right harnesses completely or you tried playing with the high and low plug connectors to see if they're crossed? I can't remember if they're high and low specific (only plug in one way). I'm thinking it's an issue with the wiring, but it could be the headlight itself.

I'm definitely buying from my local Toyota dealer when I do this just in case I get a defective headlight.

 

Added lights under the dash in the footwells wired to the dome light. Added rough country molle panels in the bed.

 

Got 35s even though I said I would never. Lol.

 

gosh dang that’s hot

 

Sorry. Headlight is not defective
I switched the high and low as they are the same connectors. I didn’t swap the harness, as they appear identical.
At first I had both low beams, and when on high beam only the drivers side high beam was lit. After the switch the passenger side high was lit while on low beam, and when on high beam the passenger side was only the high still. Sorry no pic

 

Hmm welded...

 

Yes welded. I'm curious.. good thing or bad?

 

Did the ecgs bushing, front diff fluid change, 700lb coils for the 6112’s. Tomorrow hopefully bamf shackle hangers, replace the front camera that keeps crapping out, rear diff fluid change and diff breather mod.

 

Had a rattle that was super annoying too from there. I took off the control and applied black electrical tape to all the edges. Popped it back into place and rattle is gone

 

Just seeking some feedback on other users experiences with Victory 4x4 molle panels. I know there is debate who may (or may not) have the best panels.

But going through their website, this seems like a odd little piece to have. Not saying it's bad, but not sure if I've ever really considered a molle panel under the arm rest. Anyone ever done this?

 

grabbed this to replace the stock SR5 grill and chrome trim..
brand new..never installed.
guy dropped it off at work at 04:30am.. what a guy!

can't wait to install it.

 

That is some service!!

 

he lives two blocks from the office..
I told him I'd come to him when I got off work, but he had to go in to work early so dropped it off.
super nice guy.. sold his Taco before he could install as he had a '19 and was waiting on the bracket for the sensor..
No sensor on mine..perfect!
