What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I did that mod too, made a world of difference

 

I'm hoping I can just leave mine on...or is there something I don't know about removing them from time to time? RCI put mine on for me.

 

Updated to KDMax-Pro-9.0 tune. Noticeable difference in smoothness. Def. worth the $75 upgrade. Started with the sport and would like to keep it there but I know it’ll get me in trouble. Went back to the lite throttle.

 

This is not going to help make friends.
Expressing our individual personalities keeps it real. A little gentle ribbing keeps it fun. People helping people makes me dig this forum. I'm going to be kind.

 

don’t mind @RIX TUX he’s a tired ole troll that uses burnt out memes and internet photos and doesn’t offer any helpful info on the forum. Would love to see the mustang…

 

if it upsets you I can remove it

 

I'm neither offended nor upset; that doesn't accomplish much. But some things are over the top.

Although I've only been on this forum for 5 months, I have seen so many unique ideas, recognize the phenomenal skills some members have, have received so much help and advice, and have seen the personal expression of many from different backgrounds, ages, genders (eh...mostly male though) all with a love for their trucks. And often with a healthy dose of sarcasm. Just pointing out what I see. And all are free to disagree with me. Yup, I just put myself out there; bring it on.

 

I took my armor and sliders off in the fall when I had it wool waxed. Never got around to putting them back in until now.

 

What sliders are those? Looking good!

 

Not the OP, but they look a lot like RCI (and I know where they put their logo so I spotted it). I have them also but w/out the top plates as I incorrectly assumed that the top plates would collect more snow/ice. They do a good job collecting ice with just the pipes.

 

Yep I see it now. Thanks

 

They are RCI with top plate and 20° angle.

 

Honest question: Why not Woolwax the sliders (and armor) as well?

 

Mostly because they prevent appropriate access to the frame and areas you are trying to protect from rust. Also both the sliders and and skids are powder coated and less susceptible to rust. Finally, wool wax is an absolute mess and dust magnet and I wanted them to stay clean.

 

Up for today will be swapping out the stock SR steelies with some TRD wheels wrapped in Wildpeaks.

 

Thanks for the explanation. I have the RCI sliders on the "to-do" list this spring and want to make sure I'm understanding as much about integrating them as possible.

 

Stuck on some black Tacoma lettering and some LED interior lights .... waiting for the actual parts to show up in the mail

 

I love mine, easy install, I used those small rubber pads in the front corners with a bit of silicone to hold in place after the first week to make it water tight in the corners.. great price, great product, and does everything it should.. Did quite a few functional budget mods on my 19 after owning tacomas since they introduced their first V6 in 88..
Lighting, leaf springs & lift, cab noise, rust protection, and some other minor stuff.. didn’t cost much doing it myself, combined with research and staying away from any purchases on the west coast..LOL

 

Keeping those steel rims? Are they the 16's?
