What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I think that wouldn’t be possible in his truck. He has way less plastic and copper than the average Tacoma.

 

Despite the missing handle, the strange sound coming from the engine and the absolute shattered warranty, I know it still makes a great outfit. I used to have a bale handler on the old dodge dually. Them things aint cheap by a long shot, but free we can live with. A tow strap, t-post, 2 shackles and a comealong worked just as good. Horses were happy and it keeps people wondering how on earth i did that with no equipment with me. ...but a magician never revealed his tricks if wanted to stay in business haha

 

Completely forgot to post night pics up here. Whoops. These things are bright! I just wish they remembered what color you had it set to after turning the lights off.

 

Got my sliders done and installed by @Shmellmopwho along with a CMC! If you're in the SoCal area you HAVE to hit him up! I had sliders done by him for my 2nd gen a long time ago and knew I had to come back when I got my 3rd gen. Sliders look killer with the filler plates and the added TRD logo on the kickout side and the CMC looks like it came from the factory like that! Can't thank Ryan enough for amazing work and just being awesome!

 

Tell me you bought this sight unseen! Please!

Sorry man but that thing us fugly!

 

Good to know

 

What brand are those?

 

Did you purchase that bumper off Amazon?

 

What is the green garden hose clamped in there for?

 

They only make 2 kits. The extra long is for most trucks. The super long is for double cab long beds. No idea why they can't just call them standard and long.

 

The blue air hose?

That feeds the tank under the truck from the manifold (which the compressor is feeding).

 

Fugly is an awfully strong work. How about unique?

 

different strokes for different folks. It wouldn't have been my first choice but its not my truck. I'm adding a new bumper that I like and I'm sure someone will have something to say about it but oh well.

 

Take that off, that looks like crap on that truck.

 

Got rid of the kickout on my sliders. Found that they actually just get hung up, and pivot you in ways you dont want.

The boot slide mod I linked was regarding the inner boot. The RCV inner boot is shaped like the OEM outer boot, with 5 pleats instead of 3 on the OEM inner boot, so it tolerates higher running angles without the ridge crests digging into each other.

 

what lights are thoes and what do you have for a system to control them? Thanks!

 

wow dude! Thanks so much for the awesome feedback and all the awesome pictures! I really appreciate that. Thank you very much for your support. It means a lot. I’m so happy that you’re stoked on everything

 

Well... I bought it to avoid this kind of thing happening again:



It was an emergency replacement (I didn't have to time to wait. This is my daily driver) and no offense, but I don't do things to please random people on the internet.

 

ya i like you... you do you and everyone else can fuck off. it is not THAT bad anyway.
