What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Those are the ones I’m looking at. They are more expensive but as (almost) always, you get what you pay for.

 

They have always lasted longer for me. To each their own. If you want to keep buying oem batteries that you know are dogshit, and will die in 2 years, that’s your choice. I just don’t see buying something you know is garbage over and over again to be a good investment. May as well try something new in hopes you find one that’s worth it.

 

I put alot of thought into the rear leafs on this truck, I have about 500lbs in the bed when fully loaded for camping and also have a trailer I tow every now amd then, the ome leaf pack was perfect I liked them cause they really are customizable to your needs by taking away or adding a leaf with ease, also I am currently swapping them out at this very moment, its a fairly easy job so far

 

Another option is the RoadMaster Active Suspension. I have been quite happy with my purchase and they are adjustable.

 

I love it. Not huge by any means but it does it’s job of blocking the sun. It comes with hardware but it wasn’t compatible with my roof rack so I bought the brackets for it off Amazon.

 

Tore apart my previous shelving unit for wood and I’m using it to make a prototype bed shelving Unit. I’m just rough cutting everything right now and fitting it, but when finished with clean wood it will box in my 15 gallon Titan pony tank on one side of the bed, my shovels, jacks, other tools and recovery gear on the other side, and in the middle will be my refrigerator and other gear on a pull out shelf. The tracks for the shelf are supported by the steel angle iron but I put stick on Nylon furniture moving tabs along their length for the shelf to slide on and it now slides really easily. When the refrigerator is not in place I can put a full-size deck on top that’s all removable and can be reconfigured for tall items or short. I’m also going to add a couple more levels of shorter shelves thAt can fit in behind the refrigerator. Right now it’s just a prototype, I’ll post measurements and plans when I get the thing done on a separate forum.

 

Ceramic IR Tint.

-20% on front windows
Windshield looks darker in pictures vs. in person.

 

Installed some Philips Xtreme Vision H11 bulbs. Color is basically the same as the stock H11s but they are supposed to throw further down the road and wider. I'll get a chance tomorrow night to see if that's the case or not.

Waiting on my DD LED bulbs for the interior and reverse lights to come in.

 

Prepping for the TRD Intake

 

So just in case I need fuel.... i did this install.. it's fairly secure but would like a better option... this also has a secret to it....

 

Its a mini bar.... a friend of mine won it at a cigar raffle (notice it says Camacho on it) and gave it to me... super cool

 

Got three years out of the OEM battery before upgrading to NorthStar AGM.

 

Can you tell me what the benefit of this is or why you got it? I've seen quite a few of these

 

It is an excuse not to use a windshield shade and/or use plastic protective dash wipes. The sun will kill your dash. It’s either this or a shade and dash wipes

 

Been a minute…tossed in some sequential mirror turn signals today from CaliRaised. Super cool little addition. Can’t quit locking the truck to watch them go off.

 

Reinstalled the factory sway bar today. Been driving without it for months and my truck has felt like an absolute BOAT. It drives so much nicer with the sway bar on.

 

I did the same recently and I'm glad I did. Still just as good offroad too so it'll stay on.

 

Nice! I go wheeling here and there and was curious how different it'll be. Glad to hear you say it's still pretty good. The sway bar + aftermarket suspension feels awesome. My truck is a hefty 5800 lbs and corners nicely with this setup.

 

RSI EvoA got some Front Runner load bars. Purchased from a fellow Albertan on TW!, I'm getting kinda hooked on these South African made products. Who knows, maybe a roof rack from Front Runner...that would have to wait till next spring since Tacoma is going into hibernation .

 

It helps cut down on glare and protects the dash from drying out and cracking in the sun. I got mine on sale for around $40, black carpet version, and I really like it. I still use a windshield screen to help cut down on interior heat here in AZ.
