What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Lol. Yup, we’re sick. We also just got a 22’ SR5 premium 4 runner. I’m slowly/moderately messing with it. Got the SEMA wheels and grabber ATX when we ordered it right off the bat…
Now, the wait for my V5…

 

Lol I was saying to myself, I will keep it stock when I got my 20 Trd Sport in May of 2020. That didn't happen, I have to make it my own just like my 2015 wrx. That's nice, I like the 4 runners esp the pro.

 

Nice! Also didn't know your Tacoma was licenced for space travel. ......

 

She's more of a Rocinante than an Enterprise, but unfortunately the Rozi doesn't like displaying her call letters.

 

Hey guys, I’m working on setting up my tool kit to keep in my truck so I can get rid of the hard case that takes up too much room. Are these all the sockets I would need for doing most things on my Tacoma? The wrenches I have are 6-19mm.
I just need metric and not anything like 3/4 right?

Everything is coming out of this Stanley kit.

keep in mind it’s a work in progress.

 

Nice! I’ve been debating on getting the Lockerdown, I had one in my Silverado. The downside is I would lose the console dividers that I have in it.

 

Decided 12VDC was needed in the bed for my fridge and awning lights…something Toyota should have done from the start of you ask me.
Ended up running 4ga wire from the main battery so I can eventually run a second battery in the bed. Bus bar fit perfectly on the back of the cubby.

 

Specs on your SCS and tires setup? I'm looking at BR6 16X8 Bronze but they only have 3 qty. So the Gun metal is my only choice right now.

 

I actually got my wheels from Freeman Toyota in TX online. I'm in PA, but my specs is 17x8.5 -10 on 265/70 tires, I had these tires from my previous wheels so I'll just use them for now and they were before my lift. I'm still happy how everything looks though.

 

Confirming no rubs at all with this size on stock susp?

 

A fuckin' Trekkie. I shoulda known....

 

I just hit 5k myself earlier this morning. I have to confess I cheated and pulled over about a mile from home for the pic:


(the display doesn't look that dirty in person)

 

Completed my RCI rock slider install today. It went pretty well. Took about 2.5 hours.

I'd recommend having someone help lift the slider when you do that first bolt. It's kinda rough holding up the slider and bolting it at the same time. I used a bungy cord to hold the slider to the jack

 

Slight rub when turning and suspension was compressed

 

Any Mississippi folk here? I sure have been seeing some nice rigs lately.

I forgot to snap a photo but my rig was a bit of the center of a crawfish boil at the inlaws because the awning was such a help with the heat.

 

Removing audio wire installed by previous owner.

 

I was watching some YouTuber the other day and he said someone cleaned up his wiring after he had done it…. They flashed a pic of it before and he had wire nuts on some wires! I don’t understand why companies would give him stuff to put on his truck.

 

growing up my dad used wire nuts on everything everywhere and I always thought it was sketchy, but he’s my dad so it must be safe. DUDE DEFINITELY NOT LOL

thank god for soldering and crimpers.

 

at least, on my truck, the previous owner used quick splice connector. I may just cut it, and tape it. Unless someone here know how to carefully remove these quick splice connector.
