What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It is the cleaner approach. I just like the rigid housings. More aggressive looking. Fuck the rigid fogs though. Those things suck!

BTW, the rigid housings can be found online for $47 each. Definitely not as bad as I thought they would be. So if anyone is hesitant about cutting them up, don’t be.

 

Received my C4 sliders and SOS Concepts engine skid and dropped them off at the powder coaters. Now if my 22 Pro could just get allocated this coming week that would be great. Boxes are piling up in the master closet and garage.

I think thats what those say, but I cant see it very well either.

 

Yep... Mine too...

 

Added some Rago Fabrication ditch light brackets. The lights should be here tomorrow. In case you didn't know, Rago has a blemish and discontinued inventory and they're significantly marked down. I got these brackets (at a decent discount) that were marked as blemished, but I could not see any marks, dings, or scratches.

Also, modified the Toyota OEM (cheap) side steps until I can work some legit rock sliders into the budget. I cut off the door steps then grinded down the welds and applied a couple of coats of paint. I know these light aluminum bars won't hold up to any serious wheeling, but they'll do for the dirt roads and lightly rutted trails I use and the steps that hung down won't get caught on any debris or obstacles. I'll be ordering some CBI accessories in the next couple of weeks.

 

Strapping down to the dyno right now at intecracing in Auburn.

Will see what OV Tune 2.0 does and URD Y pipe installed on the dyno

And supercharged?

 

Gets installed tomorrow. And then follow up dyno. Lots of fun stuff happening in the next 24 hours. All will be posted on my Instagram

Excellent!

I'm looking forward to the results.

 

I'd fold those mirrors in if you want to keep 'em!

 

Will be interested to hear your impression.

 

I like what you did with the (sliders) I had the fat ugly ones and took them off as they made it difficult to get in and out of the truck.
With your little steps cut off is the rest of it kinda close to the truck?

 

Nice accent look on those cut down door steps!

 

What brand is this, I am only familiar with Pedal Commander.

 

oddly enough I was at the eye doctor today...and you're right!

 

SprintBooster

 

Well, you obviously can't see it here but I got my 4.88 gearing installed, then flashed the appropriate KDMax file to account for them. Am trying to be very gentle during this first 100 miles, then finish the 500 mile break in before going on a trip in early December. Too soon to really notice a difference because according to the procedure they gave me, I shouldn't go above 50ish until after 100 mi. But I think with the tune and the gears (already saw how beneficial the tune was on stock gears) it will drive much better, especially after going up to the 285/70/17's.

 

Is the SS3 tacoma kit plug-and-play with the TRD Pro Rigid fogs? Or just the non-Rigid OEM fog lights? I know you had to replace the surrounds, but are the plugs compatible?
