What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Finally got around to cam tab guessets. Also straightened my skids out the best I could, and reinforced them more to get a little more life out of them. Still need to beef up the front bumper mounts/front frame, and do spindle guessets/limit straps.

 

Now that is an awning! Nicely done!!

 

Congrats and welcome to TW!!! But...let's see that truck!!!

 

How was this accomplished?

 

The adhesive remove i used is here https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...3rd-gen-today.399305/page-10524#post-26106670
It has some kind of scrubber applicator tip, and then i used a microfiber rag to soak up the excess liquid.

 

Yesterday did the AC condensation drain mod. Was happy to see no rust. I used clear hose. Went for a drive with the AC on and when I parked the truck you could actually see the condensation vapors in the line.

 

Nice seat covers. I also installed heated seats with the same / similar kit as you. (under the actual factory fabric... that sucked). Anyways I bought my kit off Amazon and one complaint people had was that the switches died and I already had one go bad. I would recommend buying and extra set of switches now so that just incase 5 years from now they go bad and you can't find the replacements anymore on ebay.

 

Thanks bigmace - and good to know about the switches. They’re cheap enough, I think I will just go ahead and order a second set of everything and keep them in my shop!

 

it's the bag the compressor comes with now. I think older versions didn't have a bag for this model

 

With the rack in the down position, it adds 2.5' to the length. Pretty awesome - it is very compact! But, my truck is too long to fit in my garage anyway and I only plan to put the rack on when using. And I only need it with the family. Even with it folded up, I do not think I would leave it on there full time.

 

Pulled some Stainless 1/4-20 Rivi-nuts in preparation in the Top portion of the Tailgate Trim that will be securing the part of the Bedrug Tailgate piece that comes with the XLT Bed mat. Part#

Using some hurricane hardware for now while I source some black Flanged button head hardware.

 

Last Wednesday had to take a power nap around 5am after driving through the night.

So today I take it in and they are not real busy and look at it pretty fast like. The USB jack itself is bad and one was ordered and should be in tomorrow and installation should be fast. The radio tapafuse was indeed left out along with my ground wire on a ground screw under the dash. That works now. I see a USB jack on the fuse panel, is there supposed to be a fuse in there? The index doesn't show an amp amount for that slot just USB with a line through it.

A caseworker has been assigned to my moisture dripping issue and I should hear from him or her tomorrow.

 

That's hillarious! looks like a matchbox toy with those Semis.

 

Jeez man, you have the patience of a saint!

 

Did the same mod. I’m not smart enough to use a clear hose. I also stuck my finger with a metal zip tie that I had previously installed and trimmed. Blood drops. Do I get a medal or a dunce cap?

 

How do you like that rivnut tool? I've been shopping around for one. I saw the KSI ones but I'm not going spend $250..

 

Reinstalled the pelican case
