What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It is definitely an experience. Some friends and I did a 10 day motorcycle trip to Ireland in 2016. First 3 or 4 days we rode around the north part of the island to end in Dublin. Hopped a plane over to Isle of Man. Watched the 600's and 1000's race. Even caught some of the doubles. That's intense too. Then back we went to Dublin to continue on to the south part of the island. Did another 3 or 4 days there. The Cliffs of Moher was my favorite spot although the Blarney Stone visit was fun too. I ended up clocking about 1500 miles on that trip. I'd love to go back.

 

nfab, and an extruded aluminum bar on top.

 

I have a relay setup with a Toyota style (short, like the holes in your panel) Light Bar switch like the above I'll send you for $15 (to cover postage). PM me if interested. https://caliraisedled.com/products/toyota-oem-led-light-bar-switch

 

hey i recognize those sliders lmao. Trucks comin out good dude!

 

My 2023 Limited that I bought last December. Just got it lifted, but here is the list of mods that I've done to date:

1. Two inch lift front and back, using Bilstein 5100s, plus the addition of 2" blocks in back to maintain the rake.
2. TRD 4Runner Matte Black 6-Lug Wheels; 17x7; 4mm Offset
3. BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 Tires (32" - 265/70R17)
4. Tintworld's "Nano Ceramic IR Plus 2-Ply Film" on front and back.
5. Chrome 'Tacoma' lettering on tailgate

Since I lifted the truck I've put about 300 highway miles on it, and it was a smooth ride with no road noise. I thought about also adding side step or nerf bars, and possibly a bull bar in front, but decided that both are functionally useless. I think I'm done with my mods now!

 

Installed tailgate theft measures. All can be defeated but it will take time and may deter someone from stealing it.

• Tailgate lock from ebay
• Washers on the tailgate cables to eliminate removal

Have a great day.

 

Ya call that a washa, mate? This is a washa ...

 

Got the same one just waiting to install it once my windshield is replaced. How does it seem to stick in the heat?

 

Use Alien Tape. AZ heat burns things off, but it holds my dashcam easily enough. When (it will eventually if the heat holds) it falls, Alien Tape comes in 3 big rolls for $20 but you only need 1 or 2 inch section at a time. And Alien Tape "twists" off if you need to remove intentionally.

 

Awesome thanks for the tip!

 

Boom mother trucker Topper finally installed! Shoutout to Suburban Toppers in Denver, great set of guys.

 

Washer on the tailgate strap is a good idea.

 

Installed my prime day solar panel on the truck.

Is anyone else running a DC-DC converter into a power station with solar? Right now my ecoflow only has 1 DC input so I'm having to manually unplug and swap the two charging solutions depending on the situation but I would really like to have them both feeding into one place and then into the ecoflow.

I haven't found a charge controller that specifically deals with this situation and even the ecoflow "alternator" doesn't have an input for a solar panel.

 

Thank you.

 

The Husky floor mats put most other mats to shame, and this includes the Toyota ones included in the 2023 TRD Off Road. My 2013 Tundra wears the Husky Liners in front and back.

Did my part to clean up after the roofing company today.

 

Just make sure that the new filter housing (cap) has a perforated metallic tube in the middle. Without this tube the cartridge will collapse, and the oil pressure will drop enough to prevent full flow through the cam position solenoids (sensors). This happened to my 2013 Tundra, and 2 sets of fault codes, one for the cam in bank 1 and bank 2 timing being over-retarded. The fix was to replace the new oil filter housing that lacked the perforated tube with the plastic one that had this tube.

The perforated tube supports the cartridge through the entire center. In this case the greater pressure in the oil in the housing cannot collapse the cartridge (the oil pressure in the tube is not as great as the pressure outside the cartridge). Now, this does not happen to the metallic spin-on filters, since these already have a metallic wall (housing), and also a perforated plastic or metallic tube (or wall) through the center of the cartridge inside the housing.
