What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

4WP's with optional wings. It's similar to the Southern Style Offroad bumper, I just got this cause it was in stock locally. No complaints on it, bolted on just fine with no modifications or issues.

 

Installed these last night

 

Such a hero this truck looks awesome!

 

Updated my transplant HU software. Not sure if I can tell any difference. I just came across the info here in TW and decided I want the latest software.

BEFORE


AFTER

 

Used every single curse word in the English dictionary… but I installed my Barricade HD Stubby Bumper. This involved removing the ENTIRE front bumper. There’s a special type of fear while deconstructing a brand new 2023 truck less than a month old. As a not so mechanically inclined person, this was a big challenge; but here it is and extremely happy with how it turned out:



If anyone is thinking of going this route, hit me up for some key points.

 

I bought from another forum member used, i actually thought it was diamond plate style until i met up with the seller.
Ended up looking clean in person so went with it

 

What did you cover the bolts with?

 

I went with smooth also. Install was pretty easy minus the crawling under the bed and pushing up the brackets with weight on top.

 

My reason was it looked cleaner. I almost went without cleats.

 

Epic post. Kinda reminds me of every mod I ever did regardless how simple

 

The correct answer would be: n+1
Where n= Current number in possession.

 

I started the fronts or actually , Was Able, when I used the jack. Then the rears then the middle which were perfectly lined up btw. Then torqued front middle rear done.

 

Nothing

 

Totally get it, plug into the USB port for Android Auto......2 hours later banging head against wall. Oh yeah, work phone and they turned off USB sharing.....no matter how simple, it will take me a long time. I guess i should have more patience than i do.....

 

There’s always something

 

@bimmerlev

That's beautiful!

What size wheel/tire set-up?

 

I used this for awhile until my better half changed the required formula to n-1+1.

 

Shit my wife had the purse open on all the small mods. Not complaining

 

Looks good, I’m torn between a DB cover or a topper. I’ve always run toppers on my trucks, but whenever I take them off I remember how much I like the truck look. Kinda leaning towards the DB, but there’s pros & cons to both.

 

I finally installed a hood strut. Why Toyota does not install these factory is befuddling…
