What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Great decision. I'm a 19 SR5 4cyl with 1000lbs in the back many days of the month. It pulls it just fine and I'm a firm believer in use a truck as a truck. But I also know after a few decades in the auto repair/tire/parts business, this is a little truck, with a lot of heart, if you know what I mean. LOL

Added Rok Block and tailgate seal today!

 

Managed to do this putting the tonneau back on. Anyone know if or how I can fix this?

 

Not OEM, they are custom made by @Coupe a member here on the forum. His thread is here https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/3rd-gen-trd-battery-hold-downs.574494/ and he can make it to fit your color and size desires. They are not cheap but are billet aluminum and made individually one at a time by Coupe as if it was going on his truck. You will not be disappointed.

 

Looks good on a white truck. Roll them windows down at night to see. I can’t see crap at night in mine. I almost pulled the tint on the front doors but it looks to good.

 

Been there, done that, over it. You must have perfect 20/20 vision for night driving. It does look good though.

pulled a stock JK out of a sand hump,, it was highcentered and some kids in ATVs were trying to help,, but the guy must have been there a while, quick tugg and out it came... Any the original purpose of the ride out was to try out the newer wheel n tire set up. I need to do something its hitting the plastics still... Im also considering adding the extra lift ring under the strut spring (ironman 4x4) just to get a lil extra clearance... just dont want to deal with alignments after that, its so hard to get a good shop to do one properly here.. last time I had to drive over an hour to get a decent old school alignment.

 

I would get some epoxy in there...

 

Now the rear matches the front

 

Better the windshield than the paint. Still disappointing non the less.

 

Looks like I have a new tailgate handle mod to do.

 

Replaced my Ko'o Cradle with the new LIFTd customs gas cap cradle.

Badass man.

 

did you use a touch up pen or … how?!? Very nice touch!

 

These came in. Geolandars on the way…

 

Probably these, if I were to guess. I have them and they’ve been solid for over a year
