3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

Merry Christmas brothers & sisters

(You can see my neighbor has great taste in trucks too)

 

Now that's cool. Ever try to get in the wrong truck?

 

Installed Morimotos headlights this weekend.
Got them installed but haven’t been able to check for light adjustments yet…been away in the evenings.

Also, not as simple as some of the online videos. The tabs for the fenders were a pain to get to and 2 of mine broke. But it looks good and feels solid snapping all the rest of it back together.

 

looks good!

here are some replacement tabs

Stock size tire club!!! A scant few of us here in the deep hinterlands of TW

 

It virtually never is. Nice lights.

Upgrading my shocks to 6112/5160 - pretty much one single "all the way thru " video online (amazing how many skipped key stages on Tacoma YouTube vids) on Youtube - young college kid. Go figure? And even then there was "gotcha" that looked easy on his vid, but neighbor had to rescue me w/ a nice punch tool to "persuade" it all to line up to attach.

 

Looks great with those 2021 4Runner Pro wheels. What lift and tire size?

 

my baby

 

23 TRD Off-Road
Falken Wildpeaks 255/80/17
4Runner SEMA Wheels 17
Stock Suspension
TRD Pro Grille

 

Those clear everything good enough?

 

I had to cut 2 tiny little plastic pieces on the front portion of the wheel well. Took all of 3 minutes to do it. But after that, yes no rubbing at all for me. Still need to take it in to get it aligned.

 

Finally stumbled on this. Heres a couple from before winter hit Ohio.

 

No longer MGM, switched to inozetek slate gray

 

Dropped the kid at the ski hill today after a couple of inches of new snow last night.

 

My truck when it was new a year ago vs now with some light mods

 

Did you end up getting the LD max Tune? If so how are you if so how are you liking it? I’m picking up my new truck tomorrow. Access Cab TRD OR 2023 Metallic.

 

Yeah I have the KD Max tune. Much better than stock. The truck shifts much better!!

 

My MGM three months in:

 

Thanks, good to hear. I am picking mine up tomorrow and since I upgraded from a 1997 Isuzu trooper I’m afraid I will never know if it needs the tune or not. It drove a million times better on the test drive so I just wanted to get first hand experience. This is my fist new vehicle ever, but 3rd Tacoma. Thanks again for the feedback.
