What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

PITFA. Anyone who said UCA's were easy to install, were full of it. Also it seems like a trend that most Tacoma owners on YouTube downplay the level of effort required for some modifications. lol

looks good though!

 

Not just on YouTube, but on here as well. People will do a full on suspension swap including front coilovers rear shocks rear springs and upper control arms and be like, "Was able to install all these new parts today in one and a half hours including a break for some coffee." It's like c'mon man lol

 

Yeah, the folks on YouTube record the beginning and the end. Seems like all of them say "oh my camera died, but I went ahead and finished the install... here is the finished product" lol

 

When i did mine. The passenger side was alot easier even though people said its the harder side. I found the driver side was more difficult because of the hump under the battery.

Jba is right near me and they wouldnt allow local pickup. So i just ordered ome uca lol

 

Finished up limit straps on both sides.

 

Fifth

 

GOOOOOD LORDDDDD THAT THING IS A BEAUTY

 

Just ordered one of these myself. Looking forward to a flat surface. My plan was to be able to put my cook stove on there and cook dinner. Not enough flat surfaces for camping.

 

One day I’m sure I’ll see this thing driving around on the road. Beautiful truck

 

i like that plate number hack.

 

I hope you're right

 

Yes, this is subscription based. It’s called the Ring Protect Go, first 30 days is free trial then goes to $60 for a year.

 

For sure man. I unbolted the ac lines and the bolt was much easier to remove then the driver side. Lol

 

Got any pictures further away and some under the truck?

 

@LeakyAC , I forgot to mention the locker switch. I didn’t want the rocker switch. I told them to install the switch below the 4WD control as I wanted a factory look. What I like about it is you have to push it quite deep to activate. For my needs, there is no reason to add a flip cover.

 

It's me. I said that. They're really not that bad to do lol. Was expecting way worse the way everyone on here makes it sound. The worst part was getting the yuuuge bolt back in thru all the spacers on the JBA's, but even so they're still barely a 2 hour job with beer breaks.

 

DIY grill screen

 

That's nice. How did you end up mounting it?

 

Impromptu wheel swap during morning drop off, luckily it was cold and rainy I do dig the steel rim though and how it’s a bit skinnier. Anyone running a dedicated version of something like this? Oh and here’s a pick of the CA pothole that got me , good time taxes!

 

Wish I could "unlike" this one... gnar pothole for sure! Sorry OP
