What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Well it’s cheap enough for a try.

 

@memario1214 also sells this: https://hotshotoffroad.com/collecti...cessories/products/all-lights-on-16-23-tacoma

 

Oh thanks! I’d rather get it from @memario1214 hotshotoffroad. This proves that it’s legit!

 

How come I never came across this on this thread?? How did I missed it? lol.

 

And with a name like Fleece, what could go wrong?

 

Nothing like wires interferes the fuse box from closing/sealing properly?

 

Father day weekend ritual. Let the 10 year old go nuts...

 

Thank you! Fair question- I suppose the photo is slightly deceiving. My driveway is on a little bit of an incline and where I park the truck on the ramps helps offset it. Not perfectly, but it’s better than I guess it looks in the picture. I get pretty close to 6qts out, so there’s very little old oil left in the pan.

 

That’s so cool! I used to go to my daughter’s favorite swimming hole when she was young and let her cruise around in my jeep back in the day. Great memories. The smile on their face is priceless. Gorgeous truck btw

 

I had the front bumper refinished along with the hood, also I had the rear bumper bar replaced. Im pretty proud of my 2008 Taco, she looks like a brand new truck.

 

Installed
Used lots of that
Oh. And I cut the middle cab bumper in half and applied the pieces to both sides of the rear slider area
It’s definitely not a plug and play install. The rail kit it came with was a contraption with clamps and lots of tweaking to get it right. Nothing like any of the install videos out there. Was able to put the sliding cleats in but unfortunately they aren’t sliders anymore and that’s where they live now. Had to red neck some shit and re fasten some stuff but it’s on there. I wasn’t giving up without a fight and it took me way longer than I expected but cooler heads prevailed and I got it there. I didn’t drill any holes for the drain hoses yet so I’ll get to that eventually. Definitely not the install I expected.

 

Installed a 5100 kit with 887 springs, HS 3L AAL, 4runner rims with Falken -wildpeak AT4s for a friend.

 

Love that white. Before I fell in love with my greenie I was looking for a white taco and the dealer laughed and said they get sold as soon as they hit the lot

 

Good looking 2nd gen..

 

I think what's messing you up is the bed rail drop brackets - they should lower that OEM rail a bunch. I installed mine last fall and it was super straightforward, but my bed rails are a lot lower than yours. Can still use the rail for sliding the sliders. Not my pic, but like this:

 

I believe these come with a rail relocation kit that lowers them so they work with the tonneau.

 

All you need is a relay. Power and ground to the relay. Tap the power to the fog light and then to your high beam wire. Fog lights will stay on whenever you hit your high beam. I do it to all of my cars.
