What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

T-Shirt mod. Gonna go have some Puppers. Hopefully it'll help Katie or Bonnie McMurray notice me. Hell, or Mrs. McMurray!

 

Let’s go easy over there, Squirrelly Dan

 

At least I'm not in barn clothes, Dairy!

 

I really wanted to have a floor jack ready to go in my truck. I plan on doing more road trips in 2025. Installed a header rail and accessory brackets from Rago Fabrication. Found floor jack mounts on Amazon and just married the two. Used quick fists to hang the handle. The storage tote has the jack stands in them with other miscellaneous stuff.

 

When I upgraded my suspension the brake line bracket did not fit on the new leaf springs. I temporarily zip tied them and got around to Dremeling them out and reattached them today .
Also got a early Christmas present, a pair of Maxtrax! I think my wife just didn't want to have to wrap them.

 

Good job, but I think that is your parking brake cable (E-Brake)...

 

Put some Black Friday parts on. Wheel covers , remote bed lock and found mounting brackets for my old bed extender all on the Toyota 25% off Black Friday deal. Think I’m most stoked about using the bed extender in the flipped position for golf clubs and smaller items. So nice that the 2010 model fits a ‘22.

 

Maybe tire shop overtorqued lugs warping the rotors. Said they’re only 5k old.

 

Had the truck tuned today. Initially I think I am pretty happy. Mild was too much for me and spinning out a lot in the wet weather today during the test drive. Changed it back to light/ mild. To the mountains tomorrow to see how it performs.

 

Is changing the tune presets something you can do at any time or do you have to take the truck back to the tuner?

 

longbeds rule.

 

They didn't feel over tightened, but it's possible, not out of the question. Thing is I remember this shake from way back many miles....

 

I’m fairly certain you have to take it back to the tuner. My understanding (and someone please correct me if I’m wrong) is an OTT tune payment covers future tweaks and re-tunes for just this kind of situation.

 

you are correct.

 

you would have to make an appointment for them to make any adjustments

 

Yea basically do the same thing as when you met up with him to tune it. He will flash your CPU with his laptop and adjust the tune or remove it. Takes a couple minutes. Ya just gotta wait till he’s in the area again. They make their rounds. Not long till he’s up your way again. I had mine lightened up from medium/spicy down to mild/medium which feels better for everyday driving. I might even tone it down more to get rid of the jumpy low mph acceleration in traffic.

Found an old set of bull horns from my grandfather’s stash in the basement. Mounted a couple high powered magnets and boom!
