What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Did you mean “tubbed”?

 

Got a link for the Chinese knockoff? I’ve been looking for one that is all black. I hate the red.

 

I didn’t really do anything to my Tacoma, but I slid drive it 400 miles from NJ to Outer Banks NC and I averaged 25mpg. Needless to say I was floored.

hell yea, I’ve got the same ones and use them everyday, much better than the BSM sensor

 

ebay has many and from us shippers....red? dont know

 

I have the BSM on my truck but will be adding these. Thanks for the link I was looking for some that would fit good!

 

Nice I make that trip every year. Going in 3 weeks

 

After work I rotated the tires. Much smoother having those perfectly round rears up front now, very noticeable.

 

I have rav 4 mirrors but they are really for blind spots, this would help with seeing backing up into a parking spot i would assume? for 10 bucks i may as well try them

 

So what's the opposite of stealership..... I wanted to give a dealer money because I was creeping up on 25k miles so regardless of Toyota recommendations, etc. I just wanted to get my oil changed, tires rotated, etc. every 5k, and didn't feel like doing it myself. I scheduled an appointment online and specifically said I wanted an oil change.....I get to the dealer and very clearly state I wanted an oil change. I wait an hour for the truck to be done and they say the bill is $16....

I said, what did you do...."well we inspected everything on the checklist right here and rotated the tires". I said but I asked to have the oil changed. "Well, Toyota's recommendation is every 10,000 miles so I put in a window sticker that says 29k for a little early warning".

Guess I'm changing my own oil this weekend which is more time I'll never get back...

 

Finished up my ARB twin compressor install

 

I added one of these so that the bib didn’t fly off into the engine bay:

$9 4 Pack Full 316 Stainless Steel Lanyard Cable w' Drop Cam & Quick Release Ring Prevents Loss, Plastic Coating Tether Length 12", Free Installation Screws

Yep meant that, but honestly would've been easier to tube the whole front and then slap the fenders and grille back on.

 

Finished mounting the 37s and got them on. Still quite a bit of work to do (will probably have to inboard the rear shocks/notch the rear frame), but other than that just waiting on duals and a couple other things.

 

Same here. I like the BSM feature but for decades, have always had a convex attachment on my side mirrors. This is perfect! I bought a set for my new RAV4, too. Because I don't have the killer RAV mirrors installed but have BSM on that, too.

 

Rock sliders. Next are wider wheels and tires

 

Pics are not great but my lower firewall section was pushed back about 3 inches. The section is 9 inches up and 6 inches over. Took the pics right after new metal and marine grade coating was applied. Have to let cure for 24 hours before paint. I still have to put some work into the lower fender a bit. But more room for activities.

 

Wow. Proof they do not listen to the customer.

 

Looks really good. Is that the Slee mount?
