What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah unfortunately as we all know. Once you join tacomaworld and start getting into it, the wallet gets a whoopin but the smiles per gallon goes up every time

 

Took my wife and boys to the USS Alabama. Lots of good history to see and learn, especially for the kids.

I ordered Amsoil + their filter and the Motivx filter wrench for the first oil change by me. Don't hate too hard...I always used Amsoil on my LSx engines with positive oil analyses.

Also took off the side steps. Kinda liking the look without them. I never used them getting in or out anyway.

 

Built a third brake light thats extendible back to the rear of the bedrack.

 

I like that alot. I have been looking into something like that. I like the rigid chase bar but this has got my wheels turning.

 

I've thought about doing that too. I don't use them, but my wife may or may not need them.

 

Give them a call. They were great to deal with. It might be something they have, or can do for you.

 

Yeah, got the turn signals lined in there too… check this out


I’m still playing around with the mounting. Just had some plates and stainless stuff lying around. But it works great.

I used these Morimoto ModPods.. they have very nice light output and affordability.

Today I replaced the stock TRD OR wheels with a new set of TRD Pro wheels and replaced two worn tires. I think it’s a huge improvement!

 

I made the same consideration....and decided to ditch them for now. Haha.

 

Where did you get the holder ?

Good looking rig; great handle.

 

This is EXACTLY how I did it. I may have taken 2-3 breaks and walked away lol

 

I use it mainly for my cell phone but any other stuff I get like receipts, paperwork, etc. I put it there so they don’t get lost. The cell phone spot with the charger is tucked under the dash and in front of the gear shift and not real easy to get to. I like having those so I can just set my cell phone in and go. I notice my passengers do the same with their phones on the other side, since they come as a pair and easy access to your phone.

 

After 2 months wait. I got my RSG sliders in yesterday and installed them today. Pretty straight forward, no need drilling.

 

My son handed my a handful of zip ties while I was under the truck zip tying the wire loom and I used all of them he handed me, which was a lot, and got the job done. When I was finished, I noticed there was a ton of zip ties I didn’t use so they must give you a lot of extras.

 

16s? Mind if I ask the cost?

 

If you keep it on. It help protect your truck against door ding. (Except if the vehicle is higher then your side step)

 

Yesterday afternoon I replaced the intake air filter with a KN. Immediately noticed a difference just pulling out of the parts store parking lot. The difference was a bit more than what the truck ran like after switching to 89 octane from 87.
