What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Since I don’t have my modified Cruze no more and have extra parts laying around why not slap this on the taco. Still iffy on keeping it but idk, what do y’all think. Here’s what it was on as well.

 

Took off the stock Goodyear Wrangler Kevlar tires and installed Michelin defender tires in stock 265/70/16. The ride is much much better. Not cheap but nothing is anymore.

 

X2 take the front ones off and should solve it

 

You have been officially inducted into The Blue Man Group fan club right?

 

Installed the TRD lift kit

 

I'm waiting for corporate to call me. The attendant who I talked with said they should cover the damage.

 

Agreed! Looks great IMHO. Really pops with white paint.

 

Thanks Les!

 

Great tires. Used them for years.

 

Not my style but you do you.

You will definitely need One Of These!

 

I hope it's not cheesy, I have them on my white Tacoma, too. Actually, I don't hope they're not cheesy, I really don't care if others think they are. I like the look. Breaks up all that white back there.

 

Took ideas from the DIY Hi Lift and Tool Mounts thread and fashioned Quick Fist homes for the seemingly required but actually unused shovel (Ace) and axe (Estwing camping). Strapped a 10in Corona folding saw to the axe with elastic Velcro cinch straps. I have the Bakflip MX4 cover so my rails are lower and no room for both on one side. I ended up making 4 mounts using chrome spacers rather than stacked fender washers. Also spray painted the aluminum. A little project to pass the time…

 

Installed the Roadactive Suspension system.

 

Finally broke down and bought a TPMS tool so I don’t have to look at that light when I swap wheels.

 

Same one i got, best investment ever. Had it for a few years now

 

I wish I had done it earlier. Nice little tool & under $200. Now I’m texting all my friends to see if they need any sensors programmed, or uploaded to ECU.

 

Haha yeah, I used it on a few of my other cars. I think when i got mine i got it for like 150 bucks

 

I’ll check tonight and Update with photos.

 

Yes you did, been looking at a bunch of more semi modern muscle type vehicles. Sold my 2001 Lightning and wanted another manual to accompany my Tacoma. Missed out on a 2004 for $11,500. This was quite a bit more but the LS2 and mods and condition made it worth it for sure. Drove back today and it rips for sure. Turn the traction control off and hit the gas and it will turn sideways in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, haven’t tried 4th… yet…

 

I’m with you.. it’s my car and I don’t care but it’s not cheesy lol! I been loving it since I put it on.
