What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks like a solar powered Sprint Car wing! LOL

 

Exactly!!

 

Cold case radiator, flex a lite e fan conversion, painted valve covers, refreshed all pulleys and upgraded water pump bolts to stainless steel

Bought myself a birthday gift and installed it today.
Rough Country Ditch flood lights. $80 for the whole kit and $16 for a better switch. Easy install, very bright and appears to be decent quality. The only negative is the bolt/nut holding the light on is some weird size that no standard or metric wrench fits.

I couldn't justify paying more for a higher quality brand for limited use. I don't do a lot of offroading at night.

 

Nice! Happy birthday Marty!

 

Deviated from your lane?

 

I just picked up my third Toyota. Had a 1974 Hilux, then a 2004 gen 1 standard cab. Now I have a 2021 TRD Off Road. Let the build begin!
I bought a generic 9-Drive and installed it today. Works Great! No more lag.
Also saw a post where someone painted their factory recovery hook. Thought I'd do the same.



Also did the bed lights. I found the pigtails just hanging and didn't have to take the tail lights off. Bam!

 

Two minor mods today. Nothing like what some of you are able to accomplish, but I’m feeling good about them. Did the low beam h9 to h11 bulb change until I can save up for LED headlights or a new truck. lol. I rarely drive the truck at night, so this’ll be good enough for now. And did the entune 2.0 to 3.0 swap, which so easy and fast with the Auto Harness House conversion harness. Everything works just as it should. Didn’t even need trim tools! The worst part of the day, and this was minor, was getting the green plug out of the light harness so that I could plug in the bulbs. Much easier than cutting out the tab from the bulb with a dremel. Glad I learned that tip on here, along with all the other great info that folks share!

 

Got the lights installed in my Body Armor bumper. Might try to install the bumper this weekend if time allows.

 

Welcome to TW.

 

Every chance I get!

 

Just finished installing the Alpine iLX-F509 from TrailGridPro. It was cold enough to warrant a space heater on the passenger side while I installed it lol. They included the maestro kit and all the necessary adapters (which were labeled!) to make everything work.

Extremely happy with it!! Along with the new seat covers, it feels like a new truck.

 

Had the truck one week today and so far I’ve added, sequential turn signal mirror lights, front seat jackers on both sides, center console organizers, meso total tail lights, and AJT oversized front cup holders.

Waiting for it to warm up outside to install my remote start kit, led interior and footwell lights, and puddle pods.

 

Nice starting pace. Just remember to keep your pace and spend, replenish, spend, replenish. Welcome to TW!

 

Awesome! How did it run before you got it tuned? Did you get it tuned yet? How does it run now after you got it tuned was it worth the cash? I'd like to do this myself would like to hear your experience. How did the install go, do it yourself?

 

Congratulations on your truck purchase and welcome to the Tacoma World madness. Have fun!!

 

Absolutely no offence or disrespect, and each to their own......but god DAMN that is You Gee Ell Why.

 

Do you have more info on this?

 

Think it’s more of a necessity in his neck of the woods.
