What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

are you looking for a lost 10mm socket

 

Not that I'm aware of. You need to use the 4" noddle size, I think the 6" is too big.

 

Best mod to date! Paid it off a year early!!

 

Installed a "vault" in my son's 3rd gen today.

 

Paid off the 4” pool noodle? Lol. Congrats on the freedom from payments brother.

 

Yeah the 48 month financing of the pool noodle payment was killing me!!

 

Ya, especially with those interest rates on pool noodles these days!!

 

Put on some Falkens about a month and an half ago and was blown away to see today where they were made. They do very well in mud btw. These tires are bad ass.

 

I guess you won't be weighed down then. That should keep you afloat.

 

Yes, noise reduction. The vents are pointed down, so the air that flows from under the truck creates a vortex in the space between the cabin and bed. By shoving a pool noodle, you eliminate air circulating in that space.

Toyota does some noise reduction by adding rubber on the sides as well as closing the gap with rubber on the B pillar.

Here's my scientific drawing lol

 

But now you’ve just created an area for dirt and debris to accumulate at the cost of a couple dbs

 

Got the truck (TRD Off-Road) Sunday, so the mods begin:

Ordered:
TRD Trail Edition Grill
obligatory Raptor lights
Trail Grid Pro Dash Camera Power Adapter

Arriving soon:
Center console lock box
Front seat risers

Planned:
Method Racing Rims & Tires
Recovery Board mounts (Need a redesign things, maybe reuse what I had on my Subaru Crosstrek.)
Decked Drawers
iPhone mount
GMRS faceplate mount and install of the radio itself
CB radio reinstall

Questions left to be answered:
Where to run CB/GMRS antenna wires from the bed to the cab without using the plug holes underneath the driver/passenger seats.

 

The corners are pointed down for the water to run off.. I have yet to see a single piece of debris there.. Nothing a leaf blower couldn't handle.

A couple of dbs is a considerable difference.

 

Debadged, new tailgate inserts and washed.

@venezian I like the hitch step...

 

Front drive shaft
Now my front and rear drive lines are complete with Tom woods

 

Got the Tacoma a friend, and daily driver for my daughter. Picked her up a 2020 Subaru Forester Limited, straight off a 3-year lease, 21k miles. Deal was too good to pass up.

 

Removed factor skid and install knockoff TRD. Went on smoothly and now I have access to my oil filter. Truck has 3800 miles and coming up on a year so I figured it was time.

 

Appreciate this comment.
