What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

2" front and a 1.5 Icon AAL, bilstein 6112/5160. Haven't experienced rubbing yet but I was at work all day yesterday so I didn't really get to drive it much.

 

That is really clean. And rattles of noises you’ve observed?

 

Not a mod but dealer warranty stuff sorted out…Had the pinging/clunking in the front end on the driver side over speed bumps and a squealing belt/pulley. I told them it’s definitely the idler pulley and front rad support bushing mounts. Brought both of the TSBs found in the forums and showed them. They called me yesterday and told me all of it will be replaced under warranty and rental is free of charge!

Celebrating the small wins before ACL Surgery because the next few weeks are gonna brutal!

 

I got that same one and got ready to install and stripped the one and only screw that has to be taken out lol. Now it just sits in the garage.

 

That's a bummer. I only slightly chuckle because it sounds like something that would happen to me. Try a larger diameter screw maybe?

 

On board with the small wins. Haven't presented my claim to Toyota of a sand blasted windshield pre-delivery yet. Good luck w/surgery and rehab.

 

thanks!

 

Avoided a tree lastnight. I park my truck here 99.9% of the time. Last night i didn't. Woke up to this.

Glad i changed it up.

 

That screw was a pain to take out i ALMOST stripped it. Its like Toyota doesnt want us messing with it haha

 

If you use the right bit, all should go well.

 

I installed the larger cup holder that i purchased from AJT Designs, it took me all of 20 minutes to do as I also cleaned and lubricated everything under the cover after i removed the old one, i did it without taking off the emergency break cover too, I can fit my 32 ounce R-Tic drink bottle and a 32 ounces water bottle in the pockets with the center divider removed easily. I recommend it

 

I used a # 2 Philips screwdriver by hand, no impact gun needed and installed mine easy as pie.

 

Same

 

Yup, me too, easy-peasy...

 

I learned early on to use the right tool and a quality one. My Dad only had a flat head screwdriver, carpenter hammer and plain slip joint pliers when i was growing up. He was always trying but making a mess of things.

 

What's up with the falling trees?

JD Compact (not mine, 3 series I think):


Nice GSD!

 

Hello,
After waiting 8 months for parts to come in from Toyota to fix my rear end damage, I decided to dump Sliech auto boy from Agawam, Mass. and go to Vermette Auto Body, they were able to get in all of my parts in less than one week, this goes to show you who follows up and who doesn't give a crap about you. truck goes into the body shop on Monday for repairs. And another cool thing is they give you an id # and you can watch the repair online anytime you want to see its status. and they saved me money too, because they can fix the body panel and they got me reimbursed for the sensor I purchased too.

 

Victory!

 

Thanks for the response. It might be a little tight with the 1" lift that comes on Trail

 

Done! Just ordered one from AJT.
