What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got my truck back from the shop, it was a big one.

-Full driveline rebuild (u-joints), and new carrier bearing.
-Bilstien 5100 on all four corners
-front struts set to 1.1” (third clip I think?)
-Headstrong 1.5” progressive add-a-leaf
-Headtsrong taco-lean spacers on drivers side (front 1/4”/rear 1/2”)
-Falken Wildpeak AT3W LT265/75r16

truck drives better than new, rides great and is a little stiffer. Not a huge difference in ride quality going from SL rated Cooper’s to the LT Falken. With the Canopy and bike rack I still maintain ~1” of rake. While the spacers did help the lean, the rear has about 1/4” of lean still whereas the front end is level. Also installed some Total Chaos bed stiffeners I’ve had for a while. I really like how it makes my tailgate feel more solid when I close it. Truck rides great, stoked on the small lift and new tires. Don’t forget to check your u-joints, I let my forward-most one go a little too far!

 

Goosegear rear seat storage?

 

I have been looking at the same wheel but with the red milled. I have a Barcelona Red truck and thought the red on the wheels looks pretty close to the color of my truck. I have been hesitant without actually seeing them in person.

 

I just used all the existing holes.no drilling done

Trippy looking pic

Super love it. One of a kind tone

 

Seating at the back seat

 

Which sport ramps are those?

 

keep it nice and clean brotha

 

Does that affect the visibility at all? Been thinking of getting the gray one

 

Finally got my truck back! Looks brand new

 

Not red milled, but the FSW wheels look great in person! There was a small hiccup with fitment right out of the gate, but they made it right and they fit and look awesome.

 

The actual decal part is opaque, so, yes. The stars are all cut outs so you can see through those holes and between the stripes you can see. Maybe put a piece of paper in the upper left quarter (looking forward from the bed) to emulate the field of stars to check it out and see if it is ok for you or not.
If there is a decal that is does let light through I'd be interested in that as long as it's easier to put on. I just wanted it w/ no wrinkles or bubbles and straight so it took a while, plus the backing was pretty sticky.

 

Google "tacomaworld rear USB" and you'll get plenty of threads that show you how to install exactly this. It's pretty simple, you can either tap the 12v in the center console or do a more elaborate install and run power directly from the battery. Cut a hole to size in the rear face of the center console, and mount the charging port.

 

I run Duatracs all year round working in the BC bush and get them siped when I buy a new set. I get about two years out of them.

 

Half the MESO lights installed

 

RhinoGear Rhino ramps 12000#

 

Oh thanks! I thought they were the brand “race ramps”. You just drive it up and use E brake and that feels safe enough?
