TRD Sport 5/14/2021 - Loving my 3rd Gen Tacoma!

It's about to get colder next week...

I'll put them on order.

 

Order what? the light bar for tailgate? I can send you mine after I take it off if you want mine. You will need the 3m double sided tape for it.

 

lol

Not your lights...mine.

Put my license plate LED lights on order.

 

Oooooh my bad!

 

Any chance you could post the link to that? Can’t find any for under ~$46

edit: I don’t think the part was in the quote. I’m looking for the center cap p/n: 4260B-04091

 

You talkin' bout the Wheel Hub Cover...?

I'm trying to look for my online order but cannot find it.

EDIT: Here's one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334034526709

 

Yea that’s the one, thanks for the link! Unfortunately it looks like they cant be found for under $46 anymore. I need a couple of them. I had two that were loose I suspected were making the squeaking noise when driving. I pried them off last night and on my drive today the squeak was gone so it was the wheel hub covers causing the noise. I’ll have to pick a couple of these up. Thanks again!

 

I tried the dealership first to get the Part Number...then they told me the price...$64!

I was like...WTF?

If you can find them for less than $50 per, that's a bonus.

The really inexpensive ones are crap.

Good Luck.

 

I do like the Lift and tire size on this AC Sport. Giving me ideas for my next savings challenge...new wheels/tires.

 

I got wheels done. Tires next.

 

Cool!

I'm getting close to paying my truck off! WooHoo!

Anniversary purchase date: May 14, 2021.
Plus, I'm celebrating salary increase/bonus this month and celebrating my 14 year Military Retirement on April 1st.

 

Congrats. I got mine paid off within a month after leaving the lot with new truck. Funny story, I went to the dealer for first service, dealer saw me and asked me "Are you here for payment?"" I said "No, I am here for the service, such as oil change,etc." He was like "Oh" I told him, the truck is paid off. He had confused look on his face.. lol Because he knows that I had 7 year loan for it.

 

@MGMDesertTaco

Sonax Perfect finish with a yellow foam Rupes pad. Thank me later.

For fixing scratches on paint...or at least, buffing them out.

Thanks MGM.

 

I’ve got some (a lot of) scratches that need fixing.

 

Me too...they aren't too bad but still, nothing stays perfect. lol

 

One day I’ll see if mine will buff out.

 

I have scratches on mine as well... They are nearly perfect but needs work in order to have a factory look. I am considering either to replace the flare or use the bondo kit then paint.

 

I've got some work to do before my TRD Suspension Upgrade...there's a bolt I need to remove with an easy out on the Talon CAT plate.

I'll leave the TRD Skid on and reinstall the CAT plate after install.

There's also slight rust build-up in the welding points...need to wire brush and treat it...tedious work! lol

 

Snorkel? It’ll take eyes away from the scratches in the flare

 

Yeah I know.. Rust suck! Fast cars have full skid underneath. Lucky bastards.
