What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

The “weak” one can hold 400 pounds and the heavy duty one can hold 1600 pounds.

 

SE model supports 400lbs. HD model supports 1600lbs. Which I think is more than the Taco is rated for. Not sure about the new Switchback.

 

Switchback is also at least 400 pounds.

 

My mods have been functional so far. Skid plates so I can go a bit off-roads with safety. Tailgate anti-theft to save me the loss. H9 bulbs replace the H11 low-beams (cheap but useful mod ... remove the green insert easy-peasy). Extra rail on the back of the cab in the bed.

I agree that de-chrome or a special-looking wheel makes less sense than better tire or tonneau/cap.

 

Removed my Prinsu rack and replaced it with my Martin Offroad GFC specific rack. Decided to stay with the Prinsu windscreen over the Martin one though.

My GFC should be here in a few weeks

 

My son’s Christmas gift to me…. (white one)
He helped me complete my red, white, and blue collection of Tacoma Hot Wheels

 

I think the bed mat will cause some issues…
Well said and you have a valid point. ‘If it’s not broke, don’t fix it’

 

thanks much! Answered all my questions.

 

I bought it. Needed a practical truck for starting a family. Have big plans for this one which is why I'm starting with an SR.



Ive gone full circle. First truck was a 1st gen Tacoma. Now I have finally made my way back and it feels good.

 

My fifth wheel (spare) finally arrived….

Big shout out to Jonathan and Victor at Americas Tire in Salinas Ca for their excellent customer service!

 

Thanks Brother!

 

Yeap! I had the skycamp 2.0 on my 4Runner loved the thing but trying to figure out which rtt to run on the taco

 

Installed the Rago fab center console molle panels. Got this one mainly to mount my gmrs. Kinda rubs on my seats.

anyone purchase a Sherpa EC rack or bed rack lately, having problems with shipping? They haven’t shipped mine yet was bought about a month ago. They keep saying they haven’t received boxes yet, the saying production isn’t complete, the shipping department is sick, then saying they’ll prioritize my shipping, then said they had 100 orders and couldn’t and now saying they are doing inventory this whole week and won’t go out till next week or later.

 

Yes, I'm 190 lbs, I can walk all over it. It's rated for 400 lbs, but I wouldn't jump around on it landing in one small spot, but it's nice and stable.

 

Not too bad. Lol

 

How was the install? Did you run into any issues?

 

Got my amber lens replacements and my switch and installed them this evening! I’ve also brainstormed what I want the rest of my switches to be eventually.




Also got grille lights from my secret santa at my wife’s family Christmas party so I thought what the hey— little pops of color now.

 

Installed my Kings

 

I got a 32 inch lightbar for my front grill. However i am wondering if that is a mistake. The grill obviously serves a purpose and the light will block air getting to the transcooler which is what I think those vents are for. Anyone heard anything bad? There really is no one else I can ask. I cant expect light manufacturers to tell me a straight answer. I already know what anyone at Toyota would say. Anyone with some experience/thoughts on that hidden grill light bar?
This is an example pic. when I think about that light.. and having watched the instructions. I wonder if I havent "hotboxed" The trans cooler. (I tow a 3000 lb camper at times) So at speed I might be blocking air leading to the trans.

 

Those are awesome, debating grinding the steps off of mine or buying new ones
