What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Front Runner RTT came in! Ladder did not come… but got in contact with them and they are sending it now! Replaced hardware for galvanized hardware for better performance in the long run (hex bolts were also to short, ha) If you were wondering as well, its mounted to C4 Fabrication low-pro bed bars. More to come when ladder comes!

 

Yes I totally agree

 

Trd pro air filter installed. Thanks to @Kosta2009 !

 

Installed 2 Dewalt tool boxes - perfect fit for the win!

 

The piping must be a hair larger on the pro. Put the black chrome tip on this am and was not as easy as I thought I had to stretch the inlet a bit to get it to fit. I know someone on here said they wanted the stock tip after I changed it out but I think the shipping would out weigh what the tip is worth.

 

bro i feel you. i had a sonata that i was suppose to get some rims to make it look better but everything looked expensive. so i never pull the trigger. not i have owned my Tacoma since February and got rims, toneucovers, HID for low beam and fogs, side steps and gatering camper gear so i can jump in the truck and camp on a wim.

moral of the story is a tacoma is your wallets worst nightmare.

 

Got these large cup holder from AJT Design

 

Looks clean with the red. Think I’m gonna ordered these over the precision one

 

And you can choose different color to match your taco..

 

Was wondering when I'd see a red one pop up.

Looks good!

 

Picture Editing:

 

Did you have to trim the wings off to make it fit or did you have to take the console apart to install. Looks good

 

I ordered some Redline EZ lift hood struts today should have them in a week or so.

 

Just ordered. Was tempted to order the blue but went black to keep everything blacked out and OEM looking.

Red looks sweet on yours though...Between this AJT insert and the 2 chalk bags theres going to be hydroflasks everywhere

 

You gotta pop the console off. Super easy, though. 10 min job

 

I will find a video on how to, cause I am a little leery of ripping my console out.

 

Comes out in less time than it took you to type that.

 

So an updated review on the TRD catback if anyone is interested. It's definitely got some grunt driving around town and on the freeway, but once cruising it mellows back out to almost stock levels. Also, the truck seems to shift better (it doesn't hesitate nearly as much when you stomp on it) and it accelerates better. I'd be willing to bet it's got some extra HP. Overall, I'm very happy with it and I wouldn't want anything louder.

(EDIT: I'm also using a K&N drop in filter in the stock airbox if that makes any difference.)

I haven't decided what to do with the oem catback just yet. There's not much demand for them, so I'll probably stuff it in the garage somewhere for now.

Finally, here's the TRD Pro Shift knob I picked up this morning. I was surprised to see it's made in Japan.

 

Got my knockoff PRO grill installed with grill lights
