What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

those are not recovery points

 

Cheapest material they offer in black. Fit/finish is awesome, except dash speakers are covered. You could trim/cut it if you wanted. Excuse all the dog hair in the last pics. I was driving back across the bridge at Lake Pend Oreille in Sandpoint, ID.

 

Visited Rocky Mountain National Park this weekend and only snapped this one pic.



Question for you all. Would you run this bumper with the full bull bar or without? Because of a shipping mishap, I'm being given the option to exchange. I did order the hoopless version and originally preferred it. No bull bar is a clean look, but the bull bar also goes with the utilitarian look of the rest of the truck. I'm split.

 

Either way. I originally preferred no bull bar, but the more I see them the more I like them.

 

I’ve always liked the hoops on trucks. But for some odd reason I feel they don’t work as well on newer vehicles. But I like what you got there. I would be torn too. I think I like it better with the hoops.

 

If I keep the hoops I think I need to save up for some LP6 lights in the middle. It just looks right.

 

Thanks, and I know what you're saying. I think it has to do something with newer trucks having thin lights that are placed high on the front end. It requires the hoops to be extra tall to not block them.

 

Old taco or Land Cruiser, they should all have them.

 

Looks good for cheap. I ordered a bunch of swatches to see what fabric I like

 

I’m a little late to the party but I love the look with the full bull bar and the hoops. I don’t know why, but I’ve always hated the look of just the bull bar.

 

Welcome.

You'll probably need a bunch of little parts. Toyota sells the parts a la carte and not as a kit. I bought a used OEM tonneau for $150 and spent close to $200 for parts. The dealership wanted almost $8 each for the 64949-04010 bolts, so I sourced them from a local hardware store. For the other items you're probably going to have to go to a dealership.
You don't need part 64933C. Mine broke off and the cover is fine without it. It protrudes into the bed and just takes up space.
Also take note that the front passenger bracket, although it has the same part number 69391, is different than the other five. It has "NO.2: as a suffix and the other are "NO.1".

 

I prefer no hoops.

 

Hoops!

 

Skewp and a hoop? Too much? Idk, I think skewp and a hoop and next thing you know someone hangs their panties off your rear view.

 

Say what?

 

You will have to cut out spots in plastic top rails for the 693914 brackets. I marked my rails with a silver Sharpie then pulled them off and cut it with utility knife.

 

I love the hoop look and would have purchased that look had I got it new, buttttt I got it on marketplace for like a third of the cost and it was brnd new so no complaints. still need to mount my winch
