What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Screw that noise. Everything about that noise.

 

Honestly, I'm pretty sure for around $130, you could do the entire floor and roof. The kilmatz cover a lot, i was surprised how little I used.

 

Yea, liberal Cali and its "discouraging" gas prices. Thank god I got the KD Tune @TWTaco and now the Taco loves it some 87 all day long. Fill-up today was $4.99/gal for 87 ($80 for 3/4 of a tank). Welcome to the Bay! hahaha

 

What are you flying? Doesn’t look like a Bell505…

 

I still have the "spots" that show up sometimes on my windshield from suction cups at the factory

 

Installed Craven exhaust today. Not a hard install.

 

TRD exhaust installed today, a step up for the taco.

 

The place that did the install on my UpTop Alpha rack skipped over the part about putting together the handles so I knocked that out tonight. I watched their video and @ClassyTacos video. You couldn’t be more right about those damn safety wires fraying on you!

 

Another Jonathan with an army green taco who installed a TRD exhaust too lol.. what are the chances
Got mine used for $320 with only 10 miles on it. Cut it after the axle and welded on the TRD tip again.

 

Yea, no. I had the oem JBL sub back there, unfortunately, not only does the oem box not work with any decent 8" aftermarket sub, the entire panel makes up the box, so if you take the sub out, you have to remove the panels too. I wasn't about to spend $500+ on the non-jbl plastic back panels just to have to spend another $800 for the custom box that fits in the passenger storage compartment side.

So, I bought this http://www.ground-shaker.com/index....acoma-double-cab-2005-2018&Itemid=104&lang=en and it takes up all the space that was left open after the panels were removed. Carpeting on the box matches the trucks carpet, all i need to do now is trim the top portion of the plastic panels to cover the brace along the lower rear window.

I'll post a pic as soon as I can get one snapped.

 

I realized I forgot to do this last night so I did a quick couple pics tonight. It would be better if my neighbor turned off his front lights so it was completely dark, since the iPhone automatically adjusts the shutter making the difference harder to see. It would have helped if I got the same angle too.

 

What size spare is that?

 

285/75/16

 

How hard was it getting it tucked up in there? I'm upgrading soon and the stock will be way to small. I've heard of guys just going postal on the frame rails with a sledge hammer to get a 33"+ tire in there. I'm trying to get as close to a 34" spare in (285/75 17), that will be my new tire size once I get them installed.

 

Truck got a little bit of snow on it today.... started at 1pm, still going.

 

What worked for me was wacking the guide tabs a bit and then relocating the spare tire hoist. Remove spare tire, use 12mm ratchet wrench and take off 4 bolts. Make 2 new holes towards the towing hitch and use 2 of the existing ones. I had to do this since M/Ts are typically taller than A/Ts so I was rubbing my diff slightly.

 

Cool, thanks! I'll get under there and see what i can do once I have the new spare.

 

Brings to mind the YT sneak peek vids. New Taco under wraps.

 

I wish! A jet ranger would have been alot better to take to confined spaces of the lake. But its just a just a baby Robinson.

 

I was thinking the same thing? Was about to upgrade to some LEDs for license lights and thought, why the heck would I want it to be easier for coppers or anyone to see my plates better?

i got the $7 glare mod also and it really is a great deal, it’s even got side specific markings on the back so all fits perfectly. Well sir, we’ll done!
