What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I added a Banks Pedal Monster to my 22 Tacoma OR 6 speed manual. The truck is stock other than 2” lift with wheels and tires. It’s running 285/70R17’s and feels pretty boggy on the low end. This definitely woke up the accelerator to give it more “perceived” low end torque. Ultimately, I would like to regear the truck, but my first impressions are very good with this quick plug and play upgrade.
I may be buying one of these for my F350 6.7 as well…

 

Got new tires! Max PSI is 80 but not sure what optimum is. I have found some literature on the website about psi but not sure what is best. Their at 36psi right now.

 

Chalk test

 

I agree with the chalk test for better accuracy.
My Toyo Open Country E Loads seem to like a 40 PSI cold pressure.

 

Search and ye shall find the object of thou desire. Or, look at your sticker inside the driver's door and . That said, do the chalk test also.

 

What seat covers are you using? Thoughts? TIA

 

Buahaha, uh, good idea really...

 

Looks like they're currently having a sale.

I mounted my 9 inch legs on my ARB bumper today. I think I'll wait until it's a little warmer to finish wireing them.

 

Raptor lights used to make me throw up in my mouth a bit, now I just point and laugh, after all laughter is the best medicine.

 

I didn't even like raptor lights when they were on my raptor. Got tired of seeing all the XLT's running around w/ ebay grilles.

 

KC Cyclone under-hood lighting. Would have been a nice mod to START with, considering all the wiring I've done in the engine compartment...

 

It's a good thing you own a truck, cause you'll never get anywhere fast with 9 inch legs.

 

nice work - what switch is that?

appreciate the info.

thank you!

 

Thanks, it came with the kit from KC. Not exactly sturdy, but should work fine long-term.

 

I hadn't read this thread in a couple of days, and I come back to find "The Tacoma of Theseus." Next up on Philosophers of TW: if you've parked your truck in the garage for a week with the door ajar, but you haven't gone back into the garage to check on it yet, is the battery simultaneously charged and dead?

 

I put some crazily expensive rubber covers on my Alu-Cab locks. They’re very well made in terms of fit and seal, but I’m still glad I got them during BF.

 

Took a few minutes to knock the trail dust off my trusty steed after a few unsuccessful hunts! Best Job I’ve ever had!

 

Installed some Audison Ap 2 Mv speakers into the dash location. I de-soldered the connections from the OEM Jbl dash speakers and soldered them onto the new speakers. The Audison’s come with their own adapters to drop into the stock location you just have to trim off the additional tabs. With no other upgrades to the factory jbl system this seems like a really good one. These were more expensive than most of the tweeter options that people use but after trying a pair of focal tweeters and a set of the kicker/subi tweeters I wanted something a little less bright.
