What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

This was at Walmart. Got Lucky lol

 

Nothing wrong with that tire, I too have them on my vehicle from the factory but will be switching to Toyo Open country AT2 tires, I do mostly highway driving and a lot of country roads on the weekends

 

Picked up a hitchhiker yesterday.

 

Finally got up the nerve to remove the OR4x4 side decals, also had Fifteen52 Analog wheels mounted yesterday. Going for a subdued, utilitarian aesthetic, and I am loving the look! Stock tires until they wear out.

 

F-ing Lunar Rock. All day, everyday.

 

Oooh, that’s exactly what I was looking for. Where did you get that bug deflector? I had the blue before, but maybe smoke grey would go better with the MGM.

 

I'd check behind barns, the salvage yard, or in your uncle's garage. Maybe make your own from plexiglass.
But I'm quite certain you were kidding.

 

Well, I actually did have the blue deflector on my ‘89 pick-up…

 

Added a few more black-out parts to the truck:
- Black Tacoma emblems
- Black Tacoma tailgate letters & removed the chrome V6 badge
- Black bezel OEM LED fog lights (>> my silver/chrome OEM LED fog lights are for sale if anyone is interested )
- Black vinyl "eyelids" on the OEM LED headlights
- CaliRaised Sequential Smoked Turn Signals (after trying two different Amazon brands)

 

Get it a bath today.

 

Since I can't unsee the "eyelids" on the headlights, I suddenly "need" them and have to ask where you got them (because black trim looks so damn nice on the LR).

 

My tint/wrap shop custom-cut the matte black eyelids when they installed paint protection film on my headlights. However, I found an Etsy seller that sells "eyelids" that look identical to mine! I can't speak to the quality and fitment from this seller (because I did not purchase theirs), but it seems like a quick and easy way to get the same look.

Factor 55 Shackle to get rid of the hidious hook hahaha

 

Hi all… I’m driving myself crazy trying to learn about these new machines and all the options available for them.
Currently looking to swap the front grille out to a TRD Pro style one, however not wanting to spend the $400 at the stealership. I have a 2019 SR and it currently has this grille on it. Any recommendations? Like Amazon one or?
I just got the truck and I don’t think it has anything in the grille as far as cameras etc .. I think only lane departure feature.

 

I don't know for sure if this applies to our Tacos, or not, but industry wide, modern seat belts are not as strong as old school ones were, as they are made to work in conjunction with the airbags. these are the extremes that are gone to to reduce weight and costs in a factory situation (economics of scale) - YMMV

 

Yeah ... but the mullet was not flattering either.

 

Where did you get that front bumper from?

 

Front/back brakes, it had been a few years and she heavier now. Routine oil change. Will be changing out some vinyl on the next warm dry day.

question for the 35” tire gang, how do you keep track of the odometer being off? I’ve kept a running log of it’s probably 2000k/10k off so I’ve shortened my intervals on some things but nothing severely.

 

Hood struts and Carven exhaust. Tomorrow, or maybe today I'll be meeting with Paul from PNWTuning for the OTT

 

Paul from PNWTuning is a great guy. Lots of patience and really knowledgeable about Tacos, Tundras and the OTT tune. Ask lots of questions and be prepared to love your "new" truck!
