What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

To tell the truth, I had the lift, wheel and tires ready to install on my 2015 but waited because I really started liking the 3rd gens. It all worked out beautifully! Going to the deer lease this weekend so i'll really be able to break in the suspension and hopefully help it settle quickly.

Did the H11 to H9 bulb conversion in the lows today as a temporary solution until I can get around to doing a full retrofit. It definitely is brighter and more white light than the factory bulbs. I used the

HELLA H83300052 Xenon Blue H9 12V 65W High Performance 2.0 Bulb Kit

Hella H9 12V 65W

Driver Side H9 Passenger H11

 

Yup !
My wife was
"Wtf ru doing with my hair drier ?! U don't have any hair " lol

 

I took off my V6 badge yesterday and my wife asked why her settings were different on her hairdryer. I told her the truck comes first and if her hair melts it'll grow back eventually. They make hats for that.

 

I've used a heat gun from Harbor Freight that does a great job for cheap:

 

Highonfirewood - Strong words, just be thankful that your wife does not read this thread!!

 

Haha! Funny you say that. I bought a gear organizer for my console today and OEM exhaust tip. Now that you brought this to my attention it must be dealt with!!!

 

Got the new shoes on 285/70 KO2's on Level 8 Bully Pro 17x9 with -12 offset. It's got a slight rub at full lock to the left but good otherwise. The hellhounds wanted to get in on the photo op with some puppy love.

 

Looks like it goes on the outside of the box. probably where it meets the fender?

 

Fly the flag every day.

 

Plasti-dip tacoma badges? Looks sweet

 

Well worth it! ( actually it's unbelievably expensive for a shift knob, but I like it!)

Got my Flags on! Salute!

 

decided to print new distressed flags for the doors and try em out. I like them better than my old flags printed them and installed them in about 15 min

 

So how exactly do they figure you can get a torque wrench on those upper bolts?? That was the hardest part of the install for me. Just made them as tight as I could get them.

 

I was able to get the torque wrench on the top one. For the bottom I used a swivel adapter and a bar for leverage. Got it as tight as I could

 

HERE IS MINE.

 

Got my new decals on! Huge shout out to @CBoy808

 

I removed my front air dam about 3 months ago, but then this morning I decided revisit how the air dam looks compared to it removed, so I mounted it back on the truck, and I have to admit that I actually like the looks of the truck better with it than without it. I also like how it keep crap off of the steering linkage and the suspension, and I don't have to store it in my shop anymore.
