What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Same. My Dobie's hair is everywhere, as well as his slobber and nose marks all over the door panels and glass.

 

Finally broke down and bought a pair of pro tech splash guards from fend x! Love the fit and materials and clips seem to be high quality

 

Got my Adarac bed rack on. Works perfectly with my revolver x2 cover. Might need to adjust the rack a little depending on the RTT.

 

Just a few upgrades. Many more to come. Hopefully meso gets some more stock in. Few hundred dollars id like to spend. Shes coming along beautifully

 

Got my RTT installed today. Hopefully gonna be testing it out soon. If not, the first trip will be at Overland Expo next month

 

New Methods!


Shout out to Matt and Jordan our TW Discount tire guys for hooking me up with a solid deal. They took good care of me. I’ll put a before and after comparison in the Method thread for ya Jordan as promised.
Sliders next. I’m looking for a smooth, not obtrusive look in sliders and I don’t want the step down ones. Someone point me in the right direction that be solid.

 

Are you in Richmond area? If so, what body shop is your truck at?

 

RCI 20° sliders.

 

Just a couple small touches today...bed mat and valve stem caps. Bigger day tomorrow with my TRD skid plate and Tyger running boards arriving today and some more chrome deleting on the inside.

 

Spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers on stock wheels. Just a lil' kick out, thread-locked and torqued to spec. The first photo shows the front wheel done and the back wheel not yet done. Don't like the look of wheels all sticking out crazy far, but I do feel this improves the stance in a very subtle way.

 

Those look legit. Pretty stout too. Saw this photo on their site lol

Expensive though.

 

I like my @RCI-Offroad sliders, even though I haven't put them through a real test (and tbh, I have them for the just in case moments rather than big plans to grind on them). They come in 5 and 20 degrees, and with or without the top plate. You can add the top plate later. All are DOM steel; and they are priced competitively with others. I got the 5 degree sliders, but if I had to do it again I'd do 20. Watch for sales around major holidays and save yourself 15-20%. They have a new feature on their site where they show different builds so you can see them on customer trucks too.

Alternatively find a fab shop near you - they are really expensive to ship. I drove to the RCI factory because I'm close, and even had them do the install. I didn't get to meet any of their robots while I was there though.

And whatever @Buttskevin21 runs on his truck is solid; he's got videos of him bouncing off of them.

 

They are WarFab sliders! They are full length (many brands dont span tire to tire, and end at the cab), and are brutes.

 

what brand/model cap is that?

 

Leer 100XQ

There are a few more pictures of it here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/show-me-your-shell.13598/page-486#post-29093883

 

Try google to see if they have a discount code. I got mine for $945 including shipping!

 

Looks good. How is the overall ride after doing this mod? I really want this but have heard both sides, one being the ride is a bit bumpy and a bit unsteady feeling and the other is, the ride doesn't change much. It just looks like something I want to try out.

 

Yeah, I'm in Richmond. The truck is at Loyalty Collison.

 

Same here on my sliders. I got them for some insurance policy if I get in over my head or do something stupid while not paying attention. Second time I went off-roading with them I was on a pretty easy trail and I simply cut a corner too sharp and didn't realize there was a larger rock to the left of me. Sliders hit the rock and saved me some damage. I think a lot of us get them for this reason without intent to bang them up.

Hmmm, sliders. Now I'm hungry!
