What Have You Done To Your 4th Gen Today?

Don’t really drive any gravel roads and the TRD boards give added coverage to the rear fenders so think I should be in good shape

 

So you think, let me dig up the complaints from many even the mall crawlers.

Hope someone will give me a bit of help I am looking at the wheels in the middle with the 17" +35 offset 6x139.7 with a 100.3 center bore. I don't really know much about the center bore. My buddy sells wheels and when he called to inquire they said they wouldn't fit. I believe the offroad wheels says it has a 95.2mm center bore. Maybe the 24 is just not in the company's system yet. Thanks guys.

They will fit, but you should use hub rings to center the wheel on the hub. I did a quick search and couldn’t find any that are 95.1 to 100.3 though. If you get wheels with a 106.1 bore it should be easier to find those rings.

 

Added a dash cam and the TRD air filter. Stocked up on oil filters and will install a Fumoto valve when I do the first oil change.

 

Which dashcam?

 

I went with the OEM one. I could have gotten a better one with more features for cheaper but I did like the way the OEM integrated and looked.

 

Which Fumoto valve

I installed Rigid Industries kit for the steal bumper cut-outs on the ARB bumper that comes on the TH and Pro. Very pricey. The good: the lights are great, bright and fit perfectly. The bad: They are not "plug and play" as advertised and came with the incorrect plug end to plug into the rear pre-wired aux port. The pics with the plugs; the one circled in red is the correct OEM plug I had to use from the OEM harness kit that came with the truck. Being picky, but for expensive lights, the lights should also have had a weather proof connector on it similar to those from Diode Dynamics.

Something I had to figure out from the google machine: In order for the rear aux port to have power, you have to use the 4 pin/2pin connector provided by Toyota and plug it into the two harnesses under the hood the washer fluid. This was extremely frustrating as the owner's manual was not very clear on how to power up that circuit.

I got tired of waiting for the OEM bet mat for the long box which I think is more like a unicorn now, so I bought a 4x6 bet mat and trimed it to make it fit. Not as flush as the OEM but it's 1/2" rubber so nothing moves around in there!

For the Canadian fellas, I got it on sale at Canadian Tire for $75...

Started knocking out my rear seat delete/dog platform. Still have to figure out the rear part to cover the seatbelt buckles and storage compartments. Once I figure that I’ll I can carpet it and it’s good to go! Planned on installing my skid plates today but shipping was delayed.

 

Spent the last couple afternoons measuring, test fitting, cutting, revising etc for Gen 4 bed stiffeners. Got a final version done and bedlined and installed. Should have these available soon at ATHFAB.com

 

Nicely done and super clean without all the silly branding others use. These seem way better and more functional.

 

Added a molle console rack and made sure the truck gun fit. Will need to get a towel to keep it from bouncing around.

 

Details on the gun, may need to add to my collection. That will go nicely in my truck along with my Glock.

 

S&W FPC. Takes M&P mags so I picked up a cheap police trade in to compliment it.

Added Timbrem Off Road Bump Stops to my 2024 Tacoma Off Road. and seems to be much better ride and not as much of a bottom out feeling,

 

this is my wife truck, im only the driver and the fix it like she want...if you look at the front of the vehicle, i add the new fog light, they are turn signals and day light driving lights also the light bar fit the only place available, only time will said if the bar stay there.

 

For $450 I was willing to give this one a try. I also have the 6' bed and it seems that Tonneau covers for that bed are still somewhat limited.
Install wasn't bad, and the fit seems decent. Will have to see how it handles rain and the car wash.
