What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Pfffttt I want to lower my 2wd pavement princess about 2", why in the Hell does a 2wd truck need to be so high, I have drop steps on it for my wife and grand kids, but man I keep hitting my shins on them if I am reaching over to get something out of the passenger seat or console... But I still love the truck and the steps look good against the red... lol

 

Install the adjustable hydraulics and 13 in tires. So you can drive down the road with the nose high and the truckbed tilted low.

 

No I don’t have them mixed up, the suspension is different and should have mentioned it with the lift. But if I went out and got a set of fix shocks or better suspension would it not be comparable to a pro?

 

Nopers sorry, not my thing...

 

Yes or no answer only? Yes!
And make that an emphatic yes. There are thousands of TW members here with purpose built Tacomas custom fitted just the way they want'em, and probably wouldn’t trade for anything else that looks like a truck …hence the reason why I 'liked' the post made by the person with the pro sticker -he had a nice truck.

Paying $5000 for a factory suspension and then, like me, paying another $5000 premium on top of that is not for everyone, I get it. But for an old man like me, sometimes we reach a point where it becomes less about the money and more about the truck. The Pro does what it’s supposed to do and does it really well. I don’t have a hard time seeing the value with it.

 

There was a big Hotwheels display as I entered a local Kroger today. I curiously looked and found this. I felt like a kid as I snagged it for $1.

 

I have an OffRoad. My professionally tuned shocks, leafs, skids, sliders, bumpers and winch probably didn't cost me $5k combined. And the ride is pretty damned good.

 

New wheels and tires. Lift was put on a bit ago.

 

Installed Alpha Rex Pro Series Red taillights. Got a killer deal on Amazon for Cyber Monday.

 

Looks good.. reminds me of my truck.

 

done regular maintenance at Toyota dealership for $0. I think i found a great service manager! (but i changed oil and filters before)

 

Rear lift put on today before running out of time. Deaver and Icon AAL with extended Bilstein 5100s. Bilsteins and OME springs for the front next.

 

Balmy (but dry) 53° here in Michigan meant Meguiar’s Gold Class + Rain-X + Cosmoline RP-342 touch-up one.last.time before the 5 month onslaught of salted slush in every crevice large or small.

 

Nice setup. Congrats.
I previously made the same. But having a heavy steel rear bumper (100lbs approximately) cause aal to sag. If you don't have additional weight you are fine.

 

people grow up?

 

doubtful

 

not all lifts ride the same

 

must be a pro
