What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I did OEM overlays due to knowing that the factory chrome emblems are stuck on there so well. I figured that the aftermarket ones would not be as strong.

 

Wow. You had some SERIOUS Tacoma lean. Glad it’s all fixed up now.

 

All thirty minute jobs turn into two hours. Even if it is truly 30 minutes you will find some small items to fix or improve along the way that will turn it into 2 hours.

 

Used it as a truck...Hauled ATV to Cross Bar Ranch

Here are a few shots of the adventure.








And the sign on the way out.......

 

A/C drain mod, little project…
Turned down some 6061 on the lathe to join the drain with some tubing. Routed down behind the rear apron.Drips straight down.

 

I was thinking it was a diff front clip. Nice job on that and very clean. Smart

 

Looks like it straightened up that lean pretty good

 

Reason you switched flares? Personal preference?

 

I like the contrast with the black...good job.

 

Mine is a silver 17 with color matched flares, contemplating black flares....

 

I'm liking this a lot. Nice work. (you know I'm all about utilitarian) LOL

Nice weld. I bet you've done that before...LMAO.

So two of my shops had nitrogen machines. The filters cost (at the time) $350.00. They lasted about 45 days if I remember. Every time I asked the boss to replace the filters, he told me to go fuck myself. Our typical nitrogen install was about 48% nitrogen. This would do nothing for the common man's truck or car, and was as profitable to the shop as a alignment machine. The argument is based on science but reality says it's the shop foreman looking to save money. Smoke and mirrors.
Simple tire maintenance will solve this problem.
Save your money and buy one of those gas cap hanger thingy's so it won't hang down the side of your truck.

Installed URD Power Extractor Pipes and flashed the tune. Butt Dino thinks it opened up past 4000rpm and the sound with stock exhaust is just right.

 

What rear bumper? looks great.

 

Thank you. It’s a Mobtown dual swingout

 

New skid

 

That’s not hers still don’t let her drive the Taco though

 

Nice plate! Now if yall could convince your DL bureau to change up your MN DLs. A letter and a host of numbers are a PITA to run in NCIC. Florida (le sigh) is just as bad.

Washington state, I got issues with y'all too. First few letters of your last name, a few numbers, and then then your last first and middle name initials.

And Missouri and Indiana, your PLATES are the worst to run!!! A police officer and dispatcher will tell y'all are a nightmare.
