What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I wish they had this with BSM.

I did the wide angle mirror on the passenger side. It’s nice.

 

They do have it with BSM: https://spottermirror.com/p/toyota/2016-2022-tacoma-with-bsm/

 

Awesome thanks for finding it!

 

what did you use to clean the engine bay?

 

i slapped on a piece of double sided tape on mine to make it extra secure and no movement from bouncing around or accidental over tightening of the screws.

 

Bummer I missed this sale. Do they run this discount frequently?

 

Super clean install...nice job on the wiring!

 

It's a little hole in the wall joint on a corner in what seemed like a somewhat sketchy, mostly residential area. My friend told me it's right on the border between the Italian and African American neighborhoods, but the, ah, Italians have things "well under control." I'll tell you what, it was jam packed when we went. The streets were barely passable due to the traffic. I'm also a big fan of Del Frisco's in Center City, near City Hall. Fantastic steaks!

Strangely, despite my age and general condition, I have zero heart/blood pressure issues. I don't even have high cholesterol, despite my PCP wanting to put me on a statin two years ago because "you're at the high end of the normal range." I told him we'd hold off on his preferred course of action, then did a bunch of research, went my own way and in six months had reduced my overall cholestrol ~30% and improving the LDL/HDL ratio. He, naturally, claimed credit (despite not following his plan of treatment and him not contributing other than observing, "diet and exercise will not work." lol). He retired last year, though. Haven't seen the replacement doc yet, though I hear she's pretty good.

 

You have to wonder some times if this PCP was bad at their job in terms of their recommendations.. or so good at it that they told you exactly what you needed to hear to motivate a plan of diet and exercise? Not the first time I have seen that.

 

How do you like the 270 LTE, size, strength and build quality? I have been looking at this compact 270 awning. Does it swing all the way around to the back a full 270 or does it stop a bit short from being parallel with the tailgate?

 

There are many great cheesesteak places in the Philly area. Can't go wrong. As far as Del Frisco's, I've been to several throughout the country and they are all good!

 

I want to try johns roast pork and angelos next

 

Installed some chinesium knock-offs of the Desert Does It seat jackers for the wife. I am normally one to buy American, but couldn't justify it for the seat jackers.
$38 + free shipping on Amazon vs $99 + shipping on TacomaLifestyle is just too big of a difference.

These truly make a huge difference

 

I’m good due to the electric seat, but wife has the same complaint about her side. She’s 5’8” (32” inseam) and seems to think raising the back would help, but most raise the front. Guess it depends on how long someone’s legs are more than anything. Since your wife is happy now, curious how tall she is.

TIA!

 

not worth the cost for me. If i can find it on Aliexpress tho lol

 

Well, I got new MT Baja Boss tires installed today at Discount Tire. I worked with Jordon, Discount Tire here on the forum and he was great and so was the staff at DT where they were installed. I also just installed Bilstein's all around with the fronts set on the 4th slot (1.5") and added Headstrong progressive AAL's on the rear. Tires are 265/75/16 and so far for the whopping 20 miles I put on them they are pretty quiet. Not as quiet as the HT tires I bought the truck with, but for an aggressive AT I am surprised.

 

Same with me, I am 6'-3" and with the electric seat at the highest setting I'm comfortable, but she had complained about lack of leg support on the passenger side. With the 1.25" seat jackers installed on the passenger side, the front of the seat sits at the exact same height as the driver's seat in the highest position.

She is 5'-7", athletic build. She immediately noticed a difference and said it was much more comfortable (although we've only taken a short drive across town since I installed them)

I would advise either raising only the front or both the front and back. The seat cushion is already so flat that if you only raised the back there's a good chance it may actually slope forward

 

Nice. Since everyone's built differently I guess the only way to really tell is to install them and hope for the best.

Thanks for the quick come-back!

 

Of course! Here are the ones I purchased from Amazon:

There are dozens of chinese pseudo-brands but these are the best combination of price & reviews that I could find.
