What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Removed the plastic crap behind the seats to fit blueprints and rifles. Don't care about the looks but man, those vents are loud!

 

please tell me you didn’t pay $4 grand for those?

 

Bought westin hdx extreme running boards to replace nerf steps that were installed by dealer. Tried selling old set on TW forum but it wouldnt let me post them because I didn't have enough posts. Located in Houston. Local pickup if interested make offer.

 

Just had some uca’s installed. Noticed the drivers side boot on the ball joint isn’t flush with the spindle. Is that normal? Everything is tight

 

overlays color match

 

yes. I just used the prinsu maxtrax mounts on mine. Fit was perfect.

 

Great thanks! I’m making smaller Billet Tie-Downs for roof racks soon and want to make sure they fit everything possible.

 

This worked for me.

Here’s a better link to it but yes:

Installed it myself and hooking the fan up to a manual switch saved letting Toyota tear apart my dash as described in that TSB. I used one of these- bought 2 but the 12” fans only fit on the left side of the condenser- saving the second one for a spare or for our RV. I suppose the 10” fans would fit tighter, but 1 12” fan works very well:

The pool noodle/pipe insulation truck trick is also cheap and surprisingly effective

 

How about a billet tie down point that utilizes those two bolt holes in the front bed rail?

 

Awesome! Already my order placed regardless. Can’t wait to get installed!

 

Finally got freed up and able to do some new stuffs. Was able to get my son involved and let him learn some new stuff. Last weekend we installed a key 200 amp and some kicker KS component speakers on the DCLB.

And this weekend I finally am able to rip apart my headlights and begin the mled 2.0 retrofit. Take me a few weeks to get it all done I'm sure, but I ain't scared.

 

By the tail gate? Great idea. I can measure mine and see.

 

Did you get those from TVD and which gray matches cement? TIA.

 

Got a bed mat.

 

@Spades4Lif3

hooked up a custom seat delete! Thanks brother

 

I put foam in my vents when I removed the jump seats, added soundproofing, and put the utility panel in. The foam cut the decibels down more than the soundproofing.

You can also stuff a pool noodle up between the bed and the cab. I didn't do a decibel meter check after stuffing, but it seems quieter and the noodle was all of 2 bucks. I bought an orange one.

 

Right behind the cab. That bed rail.
