Armorlite washout floor coming for Tacoma

Don't know why I'm just now seeing this, but glad I am.

Subbed.

 

No, the floor is made very specific to the 3rd gen model. If this platform does well for us we will want to do the gen 2 and gen 1, so please keep an eye on us.

 

Looks great. Please
I already looked this morning to see if it was up yet.
Can’t wait to get rid of this carpet, it’s probably got 10# of very fine sand hidden deep.

 

Quick question from earlier... will there be the option for the manual transmission Tacomas? Specifically asking, as the driver floorboard is slightly different to allow room for clutch pedal travel down to the floor. Even putting in floor mats from an auto trans truck will cause the pedal to catch on the mat and stick.

 

We have been aware of this but at this moment we have not located a manual model near Western North Carolina, I am open to offers if someone has one. Toyota is tight with data so we had to scan this model, and it is unclear what modifications we can make to our tool to accommodate the manual

 

Good news we have tested an earlier model in the generation and had no issues. We have another floor going out to an industry friend who will do his own install to give us more feedback, at this rate we will make the storage bin model live on the site.

I am looking for a NON Storage Bin model 4 door Auto in the Austin Texas area to do a fit up before launching that part variation. No interior modifications or wiring under the carpet please.

 

If you don't mind shipping one to Texas...

 

I am in the upstate SC area, if you need a scan for a 3rd gen manual.

 

This brings up a good point. Is it possible to run wiring under it like you would with carpet? Wiring up some things soon so would be good to wire it in a way that will work.

 

I would prefer a manual version before I butcher an auto mat. Under the carpet currently I have wiring for an air compressor under the passenger seat, to an amp behind the back seat, the remote tailgate lock (no tailgate anymore but a Wilco Tiregate), a handful of Vleds running to here and there, the Vleds bed lights kit (think that’s under the drivers seat. Most things I can send through the vents behind the back seat. But the interior Vleds and the amp wire (just the signal wires), well I’ll have to get creative.

 

I'm in Raleigh, willing to make a road trip.

 

We left room for accessory wiring on the sides of the tunnel, as well as along the crossmember where the front of the seat bolts. See the following image, the solid red is the path for cables to go to the back, the dashed line is suggested for components that go under a seat, such as audio equipment or air compressor.
We also added insulation to the tunnel next to the transmission to further improve heat reduction.

 

I figured it would be in there, but I’m kinda wondering about what holes are the drain holes. That’s what I’ve got to clean up,

 

@Armorlite_Kail do you think this floor would work with some 80mil sound deadening mat under it?

 

I have a feeling you won't need it. I had this in my Jeep and it made a huge difference in cabin noise. There is a thick layer of jute or something under the molded part and it's thick. You could probably do something like Dynamat for the extra icing.

 

Coming up on a year since this new product teaser thread. Have an ETA on when this will launch?
