What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So yeah the I'm having the spacer removed for the fronts but the rears I'm leaving at regular length for the same reasons you listed. I'l be running straps up front to ensure that I don't over extend. I have 305s from my 2010 tacoma and that just had a 2 inch spacer lift and a cab mount chop and some fender liner and bumper trimming. I just bought them before I crashed the truck so I'm going to get them to work on this truck. I'l definitly do some trimming, that is also why I'm considering the one inch body lift. But if I can avoid that than I will. I'm modeling mine after the toytec Sema build but with Kings and slightly smaller tires. If I didn't already have the tires I'd go with 285s

 

Did u buy everything at lowes with the exception of the clamps?

Which seat covers did you go with?

 

I completely agree. I am awaiting a new 2016 MGM TRD Sport 4x4 (Premium & Tech with JBL) which I am hoping to be delivered by 1/29. I have already purchased the following to be installed upon arrival: TRD Pro Wheels (flat black), BFG KO2 265/70/17, Predator Steps, Husky WeatherBeaters, Wet Okole seat covers, Center Console Divider, Vinyl Letters for tailgate, various other minor items. I anticipate doing a 2" lift with 5100s on all four corners with AAL. Can't wait for delivery!!!

 

I should have bought stuff while hunting down my truck. In the process sniffing out deals for running board, tonneau cover, FN wheels and tires and mud flaps. That's all I really want atm

 

Thank you. I appreciate the info. You found that nut at Lowes? What department would I find them in?

 

Tinted the front dark and the back medium over factory yesterday.

Picking up mudflaps after work today.

Said I would never mod after my 2nd Gen Tundra and look at me, the basic mods are starting.

As much as I love this forum, I hate it the same.

 

DERP UR GRILL AND RIMS IT MAKES IT A WHOLE NEW TRUCK

 

Thanks to this forum I was able to get just about everything for my truck.
"Just in case you all are wondering about the 49in light bar coving the spare tire hole, I had used 3m double sided tape and Velcro strips to put it on, add just a little heat after you apply it so it will stick better, I can get to my spare without a problem, I've been through touch car washes and its still intact."

Nice truck.

 

Thank you, I love it so much.

 

Oh shit - I just saw your post count. Welcome to TW! The community as a whole is not as bad as some of these threads would lead you to believe. You picked a good one to throw your first post in, and you knocked it out of the park.

What part of our Great State you hail from?

 

Nice truck. I am awaiting delivery of similar truck within the next week or two. Already spent way too much on accessories that are waiting to be installed upon delivery. Agree with your "love/hate" assessment.

 

Question on the LED lightbar under the tailgate... Doesn't it cover up the hole for your spare tire removal? I had one of these on my '05 Tundra DC and loved it but there was plenty of room for it. The Taco doesn't have that kind of space between the tailgate and the bumper.

Oh and nice truck!

 

AWWW Thank you, I'm in Beaumont, Texas

 

ax and shovel are Kobalt from Lowes?

 

I had used 3m double sided tape and Velcro that way its easy to be removed and put back on. Yes it does well in the car wash but add light heat to the tape when applied so it will stick better.

 

There's an offroad club down there if you're interested. Hey @greeneggsnspam - found a 3rd Gen for you!

 

I like your grill. Looks good!
