What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

no feathers here....fur, I got lots of fur.

 

Installed the Cali Raised cat guards. Super easy install.

 

2022 Limited with Night Shade edition is exactly $45,262 before tax in MN.

 

Any special tips or tricks you learned along the way to get your engine looking new or was this 100% brute force?

 

Yes it’s a little different than yours. Mine is a 2019.

 

S100 motorcycle cleaner. Rinsing thoroughly is essential. Towel dry

 

Threw on the Eibach Stage 2

 

Put the Goose Gear deletes to work today...


Snagged a set of studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV in 265/70R17 for the new Icon Compressions. Have an appointment on Tuesday to get them mated.

 

What a huge upgrade.
275/70r 17 wildpeaks on FN wheels 5 stars -6mm offset. Thanks to Dustin at FN Wheels and @memario1214 for the great deal on the Bilsteins.

 

What clip settings on the Bilstein combo?

 

I think it was 11 and 9. I had them pre assembled by Hotshot OR to max height 2”

 

prepped for my GFC topper today with Aquaseal tape and RTV under the rail caps.

 

I installed the Runin’ 4 Tacos remote controlled tailgate lock kit. Super easy, it took an hour.

 

You'll be able to go anywhere in snow country with those.
Congrats
I was at one time a ski patroller in Canadian Rockies and studded tire on all 4 saved my butt many times.

 

Today I made more progress on the rock light mount for in front of the rear wheels. Two options:
1: For Tacomas without rock sliders:
A mount that fits flush to the body



2: For Tacomas with rock sliders
A mount that extends lower.




The difference is the shadow cast by the rock sliders with Option 1 and the light that shines on the slider itself.

vs Option 2


My goal was to match the coverage from the front rock light, so I'm pretty satisfied with the effort.

These mounts are now part of a set I have for sale in the 3rd Gen forum:

I also installed the same one today! Great addition!

 

story?

 

Once upon a time, there was a guy.

he built a lot of houses, and would tell people, hey, you see all those houses, I built those. But nobody ever called him a house builder.

he also built boats. He would tell people, hey, you see all those boats, I built all those boats. But nobody ever called him a boat builder.

he would say, you see all those docks, I built all those docks, but nobody ever called him a dock builder.

but, fuck one goat….

 

Sorry I’m new here lol
Got the trail edition wheels, and 265/75r16 Wildpeaks. Waiting on my center caps and black lug nuts to come in, which are back ordered
