What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Can you post more on this please , photos and what grill was used

 

Too difficult to carry on a bike

 

Yes!

 

I'm not worried. I keep my lucky 250lb anvil on mine.

 

God I fucking miss Round Top! Used to go up there all the time in high school. Makin' me homesick dude.

 

what’s your plan for the seat belt latches?

 

The grill itself I made from various parts and pieces. The burners were made from sheet metal and the I used old hard brake line from my cummins and braided line for the curves for propane. The cast iron was literally just laying on the dirt in the garden that hasn't been ventured since lord knows but they were in decent shape so I cleaned them and used what I had available. As for the tailgate and what's inside, everything fit very well. Not much to mod in that regard, but I did vent it from underneath for air flow and made sure I don't get a vacuum anywhere. Last but not least the main tank is plumbed in to the truck so this is a permanent fixture. I'll have to get some really good close ups and I'll update my post.

 

Soldered in the capacitors and wrapped them in friction tape to dampen any vibrations. Went with CS series Kickers for all six speakers. Still waiting on the rear door speakers; they were supposed to be here today but were delayed due to the weather back east. Hopefully there’s room to tuck everything away on these.

At least the door speakers don’t require capacitors. Should be fairly easy install, just gonna take my time….

 

Finally washed my Tacoma. First wash since I purchased it 6 months ago.

Hunting season mud.


Cleaned! Now the wifey won't complain about my new truck.

 

Looks great. How do you like those tires? I'm debating on those for my incoming 22 Pro.

 

That's the way to do it! When it's done the way y'all are doing it, that's when it's called a one-of-a-kind. Looks awesome

612-40s blue. They work well. I added when I had my cap installed and it sagged a bit. Riding on them all the time until my Deavers go in.

 

Look into RoadMasterActive Suspension. I've had a set for almost 3 years now and have been quite happy with the performance.

 

These things really do make a huge difference in both night and day. Best $7 I've spent.

 

Had the high mount brake light recall done yesterday. Third recall on this truck.

 

did you have any issues with yours from shipment? Heard a lot of people kept getting scratched ones.

 

When I got my tint (xpel) I was told different manufacturers look different, even some are darker than others. I was overall happy with my xpel tint. Kept the truck very warm. Debating on doing 5% but I still don’t know. Driving at night would be dangerous especially in the rain

 

I wanted to attempt it, but didn’t have a good experience on my Silverado. Left a outline and raised up the material from rubbing it.

 

No reason not to man. I’m 100% getting one. Just gotta save. We all put stuff in our bed, but it’s not secured. This cover allows that. Even thinking of doing the deked system under it
