What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Nothing fancy but "we" installed a Cat Shield this weekend. It took my son-in-law about 20 minutes Lol…I helped a little. 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma 3.5L Catalytic Converter Shield – MillerCAT Corp (catshield.com)

 

I took my 3rd gen to one of the many PATC primitive cabins here in Virginia. The fog was pretty heavy driving to the cabin which made for a spooky drive.

 

Hope your not a virgin, if so your going to die first here.

 

Haunted house?

Spoiler

 

Looks like something from one of those teenage cabin in the woods ritual murder movies. Like there is some group of subterranean mole people that live down by the river and they hunt virgins at night..

 

Broke 8500 miles so changing my oil for the 2nd time.

 

Noise level is really low. Nothing like the mud terrains I had on there before.

 

I'm a tad late to this party, but I wanted to point out that I did some digging on this company, and I can promise you this is 100% overseas garbage.

We make something that is better quality, and we make 'em right here in America!

You can find them at the quoted link below

Thanks for the shout out!!

 

Installed the MESO V2 fuse cover and washed all the desert off the truck from last weekend's adventure. Also added some weather stripping on the B pillars to hopefully get rid of the small amount of wind noise the truck has from there.

Obligatory pic that shows a clean truck but none of the changes I made:

 

This post is worthless, even though it has pics

Seriously though, MESO stuff is pretty high quality. We just partnered up with them to sell on Chrome Stoppers and Stew gave us a sample pack. It's some pretty sweet stuff!

 

Lol.

Been pretty happy with everything MESO makes except their AC rings. The fit and finish there was not up to my standards at all. Very happy with their other products though.

 

Pushed some snow off it..

 

Just confirming you’re talking about the AC vent rings? I was thinking about replacing my AJT AC vent rings with meso…

 

That’s definitely what he is talking about. They are in there but there is nothing that locks them in place.

 

I thought they had tabs that locks them in place?

 

Yes. They don't fit flush with the 2 vents on the driver side that have different thicknesses. I understand that they made them this way because it was simpler, but each vent needs a unique ring and I could not handle the gaps. The AJT rings are hideous though, I would take the MESO's over those. I ended up stripping the chrome off of my stock ones, painting and reinstalling. This gave the cleanest look.

 

From what I remember when I installed mine, these teeth didn’t have a lot of grab.

 

12v update and seat delete. All wires run threw for a clean look. lot of effort went into keeping it look this clean
