What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It seems that in the last few months "my time" has been knocking on my door. I haven't let it in yet but it's very persistent and I'm afraid @canuck guy is right.

 

Thanks for confirming. I remembered it being a #3 and thought checking MESO’s instructions would steer me the right way.

 

@canuck guy is only partially right. If you just give in then it will absolutely fuck you up, but if you take steps to slow it or alleviate it, hence resistance training, you can be more effective in delaying its progress.

Not everyone will be affected by it, so to say “your time will come “ is almost the same as saying you wish upon others so they should suffer as you suffer.

 

Great grandpa was still woodworking and self sufficient up till his passing at 101.
Age hits everyone different, and definitely agree that slowing down and accepting becoming decrepit as an inevitability hastens the end

 

OK I must be an idiot because I have never heard of that device. My Tacoma and ZR2 wheels are heavy as feck and to get one on or off I have to sit on the floor, straddle the wheel and lift it up with my knees. It was a bitch 24 years ago and it's a double bitch now with 2 trucks.

What brand do you have? I see there are lots of choices and I want one that works.

It’s gained some sort of Canadien attitude since arriving from Texas 3 years ago. Lol…..

 

Impact wrench for the screw holding the little hook. Nice!

And crowbar to remove the gas cap?

 

And this is why you cannot be trusted with nice things.

 

Or it's the most cost-effective, in an effort to keep the overall cost of the vehicle competitive.

Myself I find it ironic that there's been almost a page worth of post on prop vs struts. I swear one of these days I'm going to open up TW to find a thread on who's favorite color is better.

 

$166 Sunex 1500-Pound Wheel Dolly

The unit is not cheap but I can tell you after using it to put my winter tires with steel rims on yesterday my back is not sore this morning.

 

I got the Meso Customs volume fix kit several months ago and finally got around to installing it over Thanksgiving. Worth the $50.

Between my Tacoma and my International LTD work truck, I was always getting it confused. The INTL was up is volume up, down is volume down, next track is right, previous track is left. My Tacoma was annoyingly backwards.

The MC kit fixed it. Now it's corrected and all is well! It was honestly driving me insane.

 

Looking forward to installing this
Ordered mine several weeks ago...

 

More fun with the left toggle button
On Apple car play up is next track and on radio down is next favorite station

 

Diode Dynamics SS3 Sport Fog Lights and the TRD skid plate installed while the weather was warm here in the Northeast.

 

Dang that is a good color.

 

Holy sh#$.

 

Super White!!

 

Mounted the traction boards on the new OEM front of bed rail.

Really liking my bed setup. It’s the little things, ya know?

 

15 min install.

T15 torx head bit and driver
Phillips head screw driver
Small flathead screwdriver

The T15 torx screws are in tight, I had to use a lot of elbow grease to break them loose but they will come loose.
