What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Maybe you got your answer already but I believe they are the n-fab predator PRO. I was looking at them because they’re made of aluminum. They cost more than the Toyota predator steps. Also aluminum.

 

You still have room to go up a size under there I was actually surprised to see my 285/75R16 fit up under there. Don’t get me wrong though, it’s a tight squeeze but works like a charm

 

installed my custom emblem overlay from the homie in hawaii. highly recommend reaching out to him on instagram if you’re interested in one.

he even sends install videos that helped me greatly, it was my first time taking off the grill and tss sensor. (both reinstalled and functioning proper)

i’m so damn stoked.

 

Gave her a bath and wax job yesterday. And of course, it rained this afternoon. Not enough to make a difference, but just enough to piss ya off.

 

What team do you like, again?



Kidding!! Love seeing your taco in this thread, it's unique and that's awesome.

 

I have been waffling on this for a while...and you pushed me over the edge! Just ordered one. I have had multiple trips this summer where I was thinking "why didn't you just order that damned phone thing"...so I did

 

Swapped out my headlights. Tried to make a video of the process, but it's my first time ever doing that and I don't have any fancy-shmancy camera or software. I just used my phone and then the iMovie app to stitch the clips together. Let me know what y'all think, please! More videos to come as I continue my build.

Ohhh what a beauty...

I have the retro tri color stripes I've been waiting to put on but oh you make them black stripes look SO good.

 

Great color truck!

 

What can I say? College football is a religion in the South. Swearing on Saturday. Praying on Sunday.

 

What brand are those?

 

I took off a bit more sticky stuff! Feel it is looking clean. Also, the back to the Future truck is an inspiration!

 

I am not the person you asked, but I also just ordered the "full set" of RCI skids (just includes the engine, transfer case, and transmission skids). I placed the order last Friday evening (9/3), and got an email Tuesday morning saying they were shipped. I got a text from FedEx that same afternoon saying they were picked up and on the way. So at least as of my order, they were in stock and on the shelf.

I ordered the steel ones, powder coated. I've been eyeballing a few different designs, but I really wanted the RCIs because I love the clean, simple design. They don't cover quite as much surface area as some of the other brands, but that makes them lighter weight (and they still cover all of the critical components). The other main reason I went with RCI was because of their 15% off sale for Labor Day. The full set was only $820 shipped to my door.

 

Reminds me of Itachi from Naruto

 

Damn your Taco looks so clean, it looks like it just rolled off the factory.

 

What do you think?

 

I installed one and it fits perfectly, you have to make sure the small slit of the accelerator is at the 12 hour position to fit properly into the air box. My truck is a 2021

 

Finished the install of the SSO Slimline hybrid tube bumper. Not perfect cuts but I’m happy how it turned out

 

Just ordered my LEER 100XQ last week and was quoted 5-8 weeks and the guy said certain models are coming in as soon as 3 weeks! I hope mine is in the 3 week time frame!

 

Removed the total garbage Quick Fist mounts, whose tabs tore literally the first time I secured my items and replaced them with Kolpin Rhino Grip Flex mounts for my axe/shovel. Much more sturdy and high quality, and allows for a tidier, more efficient, higher capacity(I was able to make room for my first aid kit on the panel, which was not possible with the Quick Fist units) mounting solution on my MOLLE panel. I used the 3” capacity ones and am now securing both my axe/shovel in 2 shared mounting points rather than 4, or 2 for each tool. Highly recommend the burly Kolpin product over the chintsy Quick Fist mounts.
