What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Bounced it off a tree. Yes glass is shattered. No the door won’t open.

 

Damn, that sucks. Hopefully get it all taken care of soon.

 

I’ve seen this before - sadly, this is your Taco, trying to save itself.

Now, no more excuses. Repeat after me: Fluid Film - I spray that s#!+ on everything.

 

it will. Been wanting a reason for trail doors, this just helps me actually get them lol

 

I don’t like the way the OEM tail lights look. I had all LED bulbs in before I bought these and they were really bright but I want an aftermarket look and nothing OEM looking. I even just installed Meso v5 turn signals

 

I love the way Attica 4x4 Rouge Series headlights look. The brights aren’t the greatest though, so I also installed Baja squadron pro fog lights as well.

 

I was considering getting these, but that's a shame if they're not bright enough during the day, not worth the risk. I'd be interested to see what some others who own these say.

 

theyre sending me a new one on monday, i guess ill have to wait and see.

 

Tomorrow I’ll verify myself during the day and see how the brake lights look from a distance. The biggest red flag I did see though is my passenger tail light is definitely dimmer than the driver side. I was walking up to it with some buddies and unlocked my truck to show them the new taillights and noticed it. I’ve had them for like a month so I already have to replace one under warranty.

 

I've got the stage 1 VLED's with the oem tail lamps, trd pro oem led headlight conversion with Dave Easa's harness, ss3 max yellow fogs, ss3 pro yellow ditch lights, meso dual color map and dome lights and the cheap $50 high flying led turn signals from Amazon. I've been very happy with all of it.

 

Gonna try it for a while…

 

Subtle mod, but swapped out the OEM silver lug nuts for some black ones off the ole Amazon. The more I look at this picture, the more I realize I need bigger tires 255/85/16s coming soon!

What pizza cutters are you looking at? I’ve been thinking I will get some in the future. I came across this though. https://www.americastire.com/buy-tires/falken-wildpeak-a-t4w/p/152124

 

Washed and shined up with TW product.

 

Those tires look great!

 

yeah I was thinking these as well! I drive highways a lot and don’t really want any MT tires

 

That bumper looks so clean! I've been thinking about getting this one.

 

Some quality of life improvements today:

Removed the speaker behind the cluster that is responsible for the blinker click and allllll the interior beeps, i.e. turning off the engine with the door open and seatbelts etc. I drive my truck around neighborhoods all day long from jobsite to jobsite and I frickin hate the seatbelt beep lol. (And I know about tech stream, carista, etc, but I chose this route for my personal preference)

Also installed some special seat jackers made by @mrproduxn and they fit and work great, he even supplied longer bolts too. (I think he only made one last run of these so idk if he’ll make more, but he might have a couple sets left, just FYI)
