What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Curious, what's it weigh and how much does it cost?

J/K. The finished product looks great. I've been looking at SSO's rear bumper since it dropped. Dig the hidden hitch.

 

Did you ever install this? Just curious how it looked... I'm considering the same, but without the topo.

 

Now that it's all set up, I suspect it would take 10 minutes to take off and about 20 to put back on.

 

Went to change the oil today and the drain plug was on so tight. Could not get it off. Wound up getting it done at a quickie lube place. ‍♂️ So pissed. Then I went to do the brakes. 3 lug nuts were on so tight that I had to use the tire iron to loosen them. But besides that, this was the easiest brake job I have ever done.

 

Removed the bed side decals on my OR and went to install the all black decals but what POS they were packed all bunched up and full of wrinkles. I gave up after trying to install them. Yes I have installed lots of complete car decals, but the end result is it doesn't look bad bare box

 

I wanna see the owner “crazy heifer”

 

I added two more tie downs in the front of the bed on the bottom of the bed to pin down loads. I removed the stock star bolts in the bed corners, and put steel tie-downs that i bought from a guy here on tacomaworld. I used three stainless washers under each bolt to make it work. I cut out little sections of my bed mat and it isn’t perfect, but its strong as hell, and works great.

 

Avid Off Road sliders arrived yesterday..promptly installed!

 

Check out Amazon. Bought mine on Amazon.ca and was delivered to my door in a week from China. Way cheaper than the other company.

 

Armordillo Chase Rack and Spare Tire carrier. I also said I would never do raptor lights, but here we are….

 

Same reason I went with BCC. Flip license plate for the receiver.

 

Great looking truck!!

 

Common sense died in the late 90s/ early 2000s.

 

I’ve said something similar before as well. The guy who is going to cause me trouble driving down the road is typically way less scary than the guy that is willing to use my plate info online to track me down from 5 states away because he doesn’t agree with something I said or a mod done to my truck.

 

Last night, finished the weather stripping between my Billie Bars and tonneau cover, then installed the oem bed lights. Could not justify the $450 on a real bedrug so I bought a $20 indoor/outdoor carpet at home depot cut it to size, screwed it down and BOOM.

Then put on a Thule OverCast awning as well as a 1up USA Equip-d single bike rack, and today went to test everything out.

 

Put it to work today, got to test out the new load bars for the Decked, and built fencing for the house.

 

Your 3rd brake light is blocked now. Do you have plans to compensate for it?

 

Prepping my Stoptech BBK for install. Ceramic coating for easy washes/keep cleaner, then the fun part of install will start.

 

Nope.

 

Stoked on the new setup. Trying to track down a reasonable hard shell RTT and hit the road!
