What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Sealed up the tailgate using TruXseal. Still need to get shell lid dust tight as the rubber flap doesn’t even touch the top of the tailgate.

 

You’re right I added a black overlay for the steering wheel and these black covers for the hvac and 4wd switch. I really only needed one to black out the 4wd switch but decided to get them all since it makes the knobs easier to feel for when your eyes are on the road. Really nice product and they just slide on takes 30 seconds to install.

Checked the bolts on my skid plates to ensure they do not drop onto the road. Lefty-tighty/righty-loosey ...

 

This is true if you’re looking at the 6 o’clock position.

 

these are the ones I got, I got them from Americas tire

 

My buddy came over and we installed my Trd pro shocks, westcott design lift, and wheels and tires. Just needs an alignment and it will be 100%.

 

Those the Black/Bronze method wheels? Looks sick

 

Cleaned up my sliders and put some rustoleum rust converter and pretty happy with the results

 

Installed the J&L Catch Can today. Need to rework the line coming off the valve cover. It works, but it’s too long and looks shitty.

 

I love how you ran your wires for the phone mounts.
Currently I have my USB cable held down with some hot glue with it running along the outside edge of the radio bezel. Kinda ugly and I'd love to have it looking clean like yours.

Any chance do you have pics of how you did it?

 

What does an oil catch can do for ya.?

 

Reduces the amount of blow-by oil mist from the crank case, that’s routed back into the intake to be burned. Should slow down/reduce carbon build up from burnt oil on the intake runners and valve seats.

 

Thanks for the consideration. I added up the time/miles (12 hours round trip, forgot how big Georgia is), and other expenses. Don’t think it would work out. I keep seeing discount codes for RCIs and I check the website and it’s expired. Got to stay patient I guess.

 

I got my exhaust reroute done this week so I could mount my RCI skid plates with catalytic converter guards. I feel a bit better now with some measure of protection there. I also got to remind myself what a pain in the ass it is to mount skids on a non-lifted vehicle with stock tires. The kicker is that I have my lift sitting inside, waiting for me to put it on.

Other than that, I washed both the third gen Tacoma, and the third gen 4Runner. It’s been about an hour now, and they’re already covered with a fair amount of pollen and tree debris…. ‍

 

Hows that knee and shin? Looks like road rash. Anyone mentioned that yet?

 

Installed the OEM remote tailgate lock (why isn't this stock???) and a HF $5 knee saver.

 

I actually will be getting some kind of doctors note for a skin condition. I’m sure it might not be legit enough for how dark the tint is tbh.

 

You could install an accessory mount. Then you could route the wires behind the bezel to the fuse box.

 

Did the 70K oil/filter change today, and put new wiper blades on too. Hopefully the good reviews on the Bosch Icons hold true for me. Stopped by a local tire shop yesterday and got new tires ordered, hope to get them put on early-mid next week.

 

There goes the neighborhood!
