What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Same problem when i upgraded my speakers. I cut off the factory harness. Soldered wires from the (new) Speakers to the factory harness. D U N Done!

 

Yeah it seems I’m a day late.

 

Yeah I much prefer that style step

 

Order the NYTOPS Front Recovery hooks in red. Pricey, but gotta be better than these Amazon nipple rings.

 

If you decide to do this, I'd recommend using "flood" type lights in the brand of your choice.
I used "spot". They work just fine, but I bet the flood would cover more of the area you're interested in seeing.

 

Gotcha. I’ll either buy a 285/75/17 or a 295/70/17. I’ve seen a 285 mounted on a 9” wide wheel and they look stretched. My wheels are 8.5” wide. I’m not sure on sizing yet.

 

Not today, but recently traded in the wife's 22 TRD OR 4runner for a 24 Pro 4runner. It's parked next to my truck so it counts...

 

Why’d rix get banned??

Finally got around to taking her down to the coast to enjoy all of the “What Have You Done to Your 3rd Gen Today” gear and mods I’ve been collecting over the years

.

 

Bought some TRD colored Sidio Crates to put all my camping supplies in.

 

They do it for free lol

 

Ok, here is the reasons why I did this mod...
At first, temperatures. Engine kept warmer for longer - especially at my colder climate (Eh?).
Plus, insulation reflects heat back, so hood, wisely heated from outside is a bit cooler, (less thermal load on paint/clear coat).
At second, sound and vibrations. Outside (and in cab) engine is more silent, and hood surface (looking from outside) has way less vibrations
(please, note: I already have re-glued hood skin to the structural ribs).

One important thing : do not rely 100% on self-sticking properties of shield, especially in hot environment. Use existing round holes in
structural ribs and proper diameter retaining clips.
To people who's concerned about possible foil-initiated short between tops of battery terminals: keep positive terminal caped with OEM or
aftermarket cap. But, by my observations, foil will not separate from insulation layer. I have used LINGDA brand material from AMAZON.
Affordable price, and quality I like so far.
I'm pretty sure, there is a lot of similar materials on the market - choice is yours.

 

Last wash before Spring kicks into gear and turns everything yellow.

 

...Rix wouldn't have it any other way. Thoughts and prayers.....pouring out a Coors Light tonight in honor.

 

All good things must come to an ... wait! He can be raised by unholy incantations and be reborn as a flea or a tick.

 

No, just...no.

 

Ya hopefully he just makes a new account
