What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

For me no. If you have a Trail Edition, then you already know this. But if not, the only other hardware to get the "lift" is the 1/2 inch block in the rear. Thats it. The front shocks (6112) allow you to select a certain height. Mine is at the 9/7 setting (9 for driver side / 7 for the passenger side). This gave a me a 1.5 inch lift in the front.

 

I'd go medium on the tune, the fast only makes the throttle more sensitive, it won't effect power. Make sure you get the transmission done as well if you have an auto.

 

I notice that just yesterday. I havent had any problems yet, but I am going to go back and have them take a look at it.

 

My guy said it was an extra $50 I've got a 6mt so I didn't need it

 

This video was shared with me and it helped to see it done 'live'. It also shows you which grommet to feed the wire through. Another tip is to have a color version of the install instructions on hand (I think I found instructions on the Sparks Parts site). It seems I spent more time trying to get the stupid wire holder/bezel on bottom of the bed in the right way than the rest of the install. Oh, getting the direction right on the actuator was also confusing to me until I got the instructions oriented right.

Picked up a set of coilovers, couple more parts and pieces and I'm ready to 3 link the rear end.

 

Nice!

 

I’m not sure I believe that. Never heard of paying extra for any trans tuning on the auto

 

I chose the light to mild throttle setting. I felt like it was perfect for daily driving. Also, having the ect button essentially allows me to have a sport mode.

 

Why not just put your tools in the back of the truck or on the floorboards?

 

Six in one half a dozen in the other. Like I said I've got a 6mt so I didn't need it.

 

I got to put my upper control arm back together, ha. I was good all weekend and front end of the week. Went out for lunch yesterday and this happened. Found the nut from the upper control arm had worked itself free. Nut, both washers, sleave, and the outer bushing were all gone (I have JBA's.) Found all but 1 washer in my engine bay and skids. Thankfully it happened just a block from my house and I limped it home and fixed it. Why aren't those lock nuts? smh

It was a good truck, until I got to west texas, with no AC

 

Hi there guys!

Looking for insight for a good shock set up for work, i drive on your washboard and caliche roads every day for work, and wanted to see if anyone knows of a good brand and set up for this kind of work, I’ve seen a user in the forum that has been mentioned a couple of times @Crikeymike selling dobinsons, but have no idea where to start looking

TIA

 

Glad you are ok, and sorry for your loss.

 

The amount of loctite I put on that bolt was ridiculous out of fear of this happening.

 

Nah, it's just "stanced" now.

 

If anyone is interested, part number for the lock nut is 90080-17217, and thats from Toyota. About $4, smh.
