What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Ya they still rub on metal under cab but idc it’s only at full lock but allot of plastic cutting to get it to even turn before it left the shop haha

 

Don't park it at Taco Bell.

 

This has to be the most efficient way to do it!

 

I filled up my truck for $48.plus and my paper towels are tossed in the back seat.
So I guess I have a $41,000 towel holder.

 

It is a stick on but the quality is bad ass, big thanks to @WaitingOnMyR1T for showing his and bringing it to my attention of this product that I must have since I am a huge CF fanatic as my other car has plenty of CF functional pieces as well as the interior, but those were replacement pieces, no stick-ons there. Now if only I can get the rest of the mirror housing in CF.

 

2 of 3 mods done today. Tried to capture the sequentials with a gif, shows up on my phone perfectly but not here. Looks very cool! Thank you to @daveeasa for led harness to allow hi/low DRL function to work perfect with zero guess work and clean install.

 

Grabbers are awesome, nearly 80% as quiet as stock, plus the aggressive look, great off road handling. Downside, they are mudders so don’t expect great perf on wet pavement. Otherwise solid buy vs the legacy solutions.

 

Where'd you get it?

 

I installed an Auxbeam 8 switch panel and fuse block, installed the Expedition Essentials dash mount with powered USB supply, and added the

$165 Midland MXT275 MicroMobile GMRS Radio - 15 watts Two-Way Radio with Integrated Control Microphone - Overland Caravanning Tractors - Detachable External Magnetic Mount Antenna - 8 Repeater Channels

Midland MXT275 MicroMobile GMRS 15W radio. I need to hard wire the radio so I don't have to look at the 12v plug, but I need to get either a wire slice or an add-a-fuse.

Tomorrow's project will be assembling and installing the UpTop Overland Truss bed rack.

 

Damn, That's bad ass. Your write up is A+.

Is that corrosion (the green color) starting to form on your negative battery post?

 

Yep. 2021 with 11,000'ish miles and there was a fair amount of corrosion prior to me cleaning it up before the electrical install. I'd guess (I'm no battery experty) that it's coming from the off gassing of hydrogen gas coming from the OEM battery. You can also see some darker color around the vent caps.

This is my first Toyota so I'm not aware of any particular battery issues. I do live in west central Georgia where 90% humidity and 100° temps are normal. Maybe the heat causes more venting. I'll probably switch to a deep cycle sealed battery when this one goes.

 

Installed my Rough Country Molle panel today

 

Very clean install. Well done!

 

that is a super squared away bed!!! Might be picking your brain about all of it!

 

Haha ty, I tried to be more practical for camping.

 

Awesome, I used to camp there all the time. I have not been in several years though.

 

that is my plan too!! I am pretty muchh used to minimalist camping, and will probably follow the same idea.

what kind of cap is that?
what kind of bed lights?
are all of the molle panels Rough Country?

can we see picks of the outside at some point?

 

Made a DIY mount for my portable Dobinson’s air compressor. Not to bad since I don’t have a welder and just bent it using a vise.

I used the three bolts behind the air filter box in the picture to mount it to the truck.
