What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Completely forgot about these! Glad they finally made it on!

 

New shifter! Got the Getta Grip shifter w/Vans grip. Had & learned to use teflon/thread tape so it would sit just perfect (had to use because it would not shift with the boot collar shoved all the way down) Totally recommend!

Working on a shower today. Water, pressure, paint and supports up next.

 

Gravity fed or are you going to pressurize it?

 

Change my oil and filter for the first time after obtaining a TRD skid plate. Went pretty well but it sure is tight getting to the filter housing. Also installed the driver side Builtright Industries molle panel.

 

I tried that but I’m utilizing the inboard most holes on the mount and the instructions claim the manifold goes on the inboard extension piece, so I didn’t fight it and I guess I missed how to achieve that…might redo it then. Thanks!

 

At the top front I have a screw cap. Plan to add a schrader valve I ordered to the cap. Hope it will hold around 30 psi. This is how I plan to fill the tube as well.

thinking the weak link will be wing nut clean out
plug at the end.

 

I had an unsuccessful attempt making the same sort of setup. Would only get a few seconds of pressurized feed before tapering off. But with how you have yours placed up high, you might have better luck. I hope so anyway.

 

Thank you sir. I’ll post something up when I get the valve, painted and mounted.

 

After releasing some tension, figured I'd just get it done and over with. Easy enough to install the assemblies and patch up the wires.

Quad high beams

Drl and low beam


Really an easy process to get these out and in.

 

how much does an oil change like this cost and how many miles will you run it?

 

ok thats the hottest truck ive seen yet !

 

Tufskinz mud flaps
Gives me the clearance and the nostalgia
Not much flex but we'll see

 

Had my Eibach stage 1 lift installed yesterday 1st ring and 3 leaf add a leaf. had the new shoes installed today Goodyear Ultra terrain in 265/75/16. Very happy with this setup!

 

Cat Shield installed

 

Well I'm sure if you are an Amsoil member and buy more than 6qts at a time you could save more.

My local farm store has Amsoil for $10 and some change per quart.

Amsoil says you can go up to 15k miles.

 

Swapped out the Factory tires today for a set of Good Year Ultra terrains went with stock size really wanted 265 75 16's but need 1 Toyota that's practical. Still going to do a small lift on it but I really enjoy this truck for what it is. I have owned all 3 generations of Taco's and this is by far my favorite in stock form so I don't want to stray too far from it... Pics of new tires below and it's two older brothers gotta love Toyota 4X4's.

 

Great looking truck!

 

I’ve been adding things this weekend and have more planned. I started a build thread for anyone that wants to follow along.
