What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not sure. They do ask if you have the JBL or non-JBL head unit and if you have the non-JBL like I do, what the display size is (7” or 8”).

 

Looks great! Is that the Turkey Creek Trail, by chance?

 

What is the reason for that or is that a unknown Toyota thing

 

Yes, I got red stitching so it matches the red stitching on my steering wheel and the red accents on the shift knob. And also the little “Tacoma” on the glove box is red

 

An update to my massive sudden oil leak.



the housing that the oil filter and oil pressure switch attach to cracked. Thankfully it’s a replaceable part.

 

Here's what I bought:

The price went up after I bought it, it was $46.54, now it's $50 something. It didn't come with a hitch pin, so I had to buy one.

 

wish someone would change the "B" to a "J".

 

Not sure what the reason would be. Maybe just poor engineering? Maybe to drown out back seat drivers….

 

I have successfully crunched the stock tinfoil TRD OR skid plate (and haven’t noticed until now) so does anyone have any good recommendations for aftermarket ones?

 

How was your experience, and can I ask what it set you back? I plan to get my re-gear done here, too, but still need to wait a few months.

 

I installed the interior LED light kit from Cali Raised LED. Definitely a huge improvement over the factory bulbs!

 

Saw this little drawer for the cubby hole on the left side of steering wheel on Etsy. Pretty neat!

Looks good. Now get out there and take those Christmas lights down off the house.

 

Got a few goodies for my next oil change.

And I saw this today

 

Worked on this over the last couple of weeks. Icon 2.5 fronts, Icon UCAs with Delta Joints, Icon RXT Leaf Packs (on stage 2), Icon Rears RR, Method 305s, and Cooper Evolution M/Ts.

Wasn’t a walk in the park but definitely fun!
