What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Appreciate the info and pic. Would love to get back there some day. Made many trips and stayed in Lincoln, North Conway and Bartlett area. Have skied at all of the resorts in those areas. It's beautiful there.

 

Got some paint protection because it sits outside. Nice 5 layer cover.

 

It will make a big difference. I have a nice pair of mounts and also added a flat bracket to move them out even a little further. Having a white truck can be blinding when the light hits the fender or hood so moving them out really helped. Good luck resolving the issue.

 

Thanks for the info. Sounds like a fun area. Only been there in winter to ski but did ride snow mobiles one year in the Bartlett area. Had a blast.

 

Very nice. Glad it's an improvement. Happy for you. Really appreciate you keeping me in mind and giving me an update.

 

Added Bilstein 6112s with B12 special coils and the Bilstein billet top hats to the front and 5100s rear today, and stopped messing around with inferior solutions..... Solid 3/2 lift that is setup for the additional 100lbs of weight in the front between the bumper and the skid.

 

How do you like the cover? Can you put a link to where to get it?

 

2nd gen sport wheel on 3rd.

 

Thank you! How’s the quality of the finish on them? Also, curious about the trail edition grille. Is that an OEM one you have coming? I think that is almost necessary with the bronze wheels.

 

No complaints on the finish, aside from the center caps being slightly more satin than matte (but it's painted plastic vs powder coated aluminum). Not really noticeable from 5' away. I wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.

Ask me again in a year though, after I've put some miles and trails on them

Yup, the factory TE grille with the bronze letters. I don't have the p/n handy but will post it up once it gets here.

 

Nice looking truck. I am waiting for my Slimline with stage 2 wings to arrive. Been waiting 3 months and counting

 

Waiting for mine to arrive

 

Miller Cat arrived today, looks like Wed is installing date, guess I now need to upgrade the stock tin skids

 

that would cause the terminals to leak?

 

Can confirm, this is a great improvement. More money TW made me spend, after I saw it on here… “TacomaWorld, it’s not just truck mods you’ll spend money on here!”

 

Got the black OEM lugs installed today. Great little project I did with the kiddo.

 

On a similar note, I mounted a wireless remote on the ceiling and connected a relay from my Paradox security system into the wireless remote so that I could punch in a code into the Paradox control panel and open the door just like I could before with the old centre mount garage door opener. This was an idea from a fellow TW member that hid the wireless remote above the headliner in the truck and connected a momentary switch installed in the upper console to it.

 

Even got the matching “2nd Gen” side steps.

Didn’t do much to mine today except stare at it thinking how can I blow a paycheck this week…. Last week the methods went on so I keep going into the garage to look at them..
