What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I found out you can stuff a 34” tire 315/75/16 in the spare tire spot with a little hammering and a ratchet strap to pull the tire away from the diff. This will suffice until I do a high clearance rear bumper to give more departure angle.

 

It went together easy and the fitment was good.

For most of the bumper the instructions were very clear. Slight issue I had was that the design changed between the instructions and the metal I received. The instructions had the top, face and bottom edge of the bumper as three pieces that get welded together. While the main body of the bumper I received was one piece that was bent making up the top, face and bottom. While the instructions didn't match it was pretty easy to see what I needed to do and they were responsive when I emailed them.

All the pieces are just cut. They are smooth but some need a little grinding to get optimal angles for welding.

When I do the front bumper I'll likely do another coastal.

Edited to add couple commas

 

Good to know, thank you!

 

Nice lil cam, do you have a brand/link?

Note: Saw Garmin, link/model?

 

My 2021 White Tacoma gets a baby sister, a 2022 Barcelona Red. Both OR's, 4x4, long beds.

Last week I got the 6112s and 285s BFGs on the BR to match the White Taco.

Obsessed about having outdoor hot shower..

 

Finally installed the bed lights on my 21 SR.
First, I had to buy a used Tundra cargo light switch for $30 off eBay. I went with the Amazon bed light kit over the OEM kit and I already had the relay installed from the factory.




Took all of 5m per side to install once I had the switch put in.

 

Yeah, it was super easy. I didn't have to install a switch but taking them out was easy and putting them in. Def should have came with them. For only 65 dollars def worth it

 

sexy as hell

 

Vault V700 Bat Wing- got tired of the lid hitting my head!

 

How much does all this "overland" or camping gear stuff cost? Just a rough estimate I am curious, as it looks nice and when it looks nice I know its not cheap

 

Did you add the lifts yourself?

 

It's not cheap at all... It's an addiction!!
Here is where I started 2016...

 

Garmin MINI. Refurb for 90 dollars. Provided cable is long enough to reach the center console compartment USB connection.

 

To conclude my table project, it's all done!
Very stoked with the outcome. Rago fabrication couldn't make one being as busy as they are ( I still love you guys ) so I got with a buddy of mine whom had large sheets of aluminum. It was very fun to do and roughly cost less than 100 bucks. Oh and my expedition essential paper towel holder is the shit.

 

Yes Sir, messed up the first time like always. Amazon Apexstone 100N/22.5lb gas strut set of 4 $15

 

Installed Eibach pro lift with deaver 1.5" AAL and got new wheels/tires mounted

 

Great job, because I too, hate that thing slamming down on my head. Was looking at the Rome cases, but hate to waste the Pelicans I already drilled holes into.

 

Finally got around to installing the total tail stage 1 kit but came across some snags

First, one of the white clips on the top broke removing the tail light, not too bad. Then misplaced a bolt for a good 5 minutes haha. Worst of all though, my turn signals are hyper flashing and i didn't order the load resistors
