What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It's been a work in progress for a few years, but today was bigger tires day. Went from 265/65R17 to 285/70R17. I added

$148 Spidertrax WHS007 Blue Wheel Spacer Kit

Spidertrax WHS007 Blue Wheel Spacer Kit a few weeks back when I added the Bilstein 5100 and OME springs. She definitely needs a bath.

 

And this year's winner, for the most complete, best organized list of mods, best punctuated, easiest to read, presented using complete sentences, GOES TOO......

You get the award, given out, after all participation awards are handed out, whatever that is.

Nice truck!

 

Standard ome 2" medium lift, with OME UCA's.

I should have pointed out, the before reading was after I removed LCA both sides, replaced bushings, and reinstalled using just eyeballs and sharpy breadcrumbs marked on the camber bolts.

 

Finally got my Apogeeoffroad front bumper installed with Baja Designs S8 30 inch light bar, Warn Evo 10-S, Squadron Sport ditch lights, Switch Pro 9100, King 2.5s, Alcan leaf pack, front and back duro bump stops.

 

I’m pretty sure I trimmed mine.

 

Whoa, I wasn't aware Camburg is now offering anodized colors on their billet uca's.

 

I’m lucky my wife loves our Tacoma more than me. She is quite protective of it so I don’t worry too much. After 4 years of both of us driving the truck it’s still mint.

 

Modified 2 M18x1.5 drain plugs into magnetic plugs.
Used 1/4"x1/4" high temperature magnets. Drilled a 1/4" hole in the end of each plug. Mixed up JB weld and put in the holes before pushing the magnets in. Left plastic clamps on the magnets overnight to keep the magnet seated.
I am going to use them on the fill ports of the front and rear differential.
I had a bag with 5 of these plugs so was only out the cost of the magnets.

 

Question regarding bolt pattern
My 2019 sport says it has x139.
I am looking to purchase a set of wheels that he says came off his FJ Cruiser with a bolt pattern of 139.7
Will those wheels fit my Taco?

 

My transfer case actuator Screws looked like they came off the Titanic. I measured the thread OD of the factory thread cutting screws at .205".
I had some 18-8 stainless #12x3/4" sheet metal screws that have a thread major diameter of .210".
Replaced all the screws one at a time.

 

No, it is a 6 lug as well.

 

I’ve never seen a FJ cruisers with 5 lugs, later Tundras and Fj100’s yes!

 

That’s what I get for trusting the Google.



I deleted my original incorrect post.

 

Funny, I am looking at the picture of the aluminum 6 lug wheel, 17in with a Blizzak winter tire on it. Description says, Toyota wheels 6x5.5 or 6x139.7. He said they used to on his FJ Cruiser. Bottom line, they will fit my Tacoma sport?
139.7 will fit 139?
According to google, they say you should go with the correct size when purchasing wheels, to ensure proper fit and reduce the chance they may loosen while driving. Does .7 make that big a difference?

I have to drive a couple hours to get these things, hence my questions.

 

They are the same and will work. The trd beadlocks came on both Tacoma and Fj cruiser in 2014
6 on 139.7-mm. (6 on 5.5-in.) bolt circle is 99% of the Toyotas 4x4’ with 6 hole/lug from the earliest Land Cruisers in the 50’s . 2024’s have a different /smaller hub hole size I think I read.

 

Pre-winter scrub down and rubdown.

 

Loaded up a bit over a half tonne of leaves and nuts from our house (and a set of chains) and took them to our lake property. Working on creating a deciduous, fire resistant, forest around the cabin.
