What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Unless you have something productive to post, move along.

 

That is a 2nd gen Toyota 4x4.

1st gen 4x4 1979-83
2nd gen 4x4 1984-88
3rd gen 4x4 1988-94

Before 1979 all the Toyota 4x4 Hilux trucks were after market conversions.

Just to clarify for some of the younger crowd.

 

I was able to get the labels off the fabric easily but it seems they have left some adhesive behind. Not sure how to clean that. I tried to remove one of the decals on the mirror cover but it just looks like shit. Tried heating and scraping with a plastic scraper/spudger tool but it just doesn't work. I think I'm going to just cover them up with a matching color vinyl sticker now that I've scraped the hell out of them.

 

Looks good! I'm thinking of doing the same. Any tips on putting the switch in that location? Thanks in advance.

 

Yes that comes with the set

 

They are $499 for the triple black with perforated leather in the middle. But when you put in cart write "tacomaworld" in the coupon code box and it takes about $75 off .
They take about 2 hours to install . There is a whole thread on clazzio's

 

Hey all, thought I would stop lurking and start posting. I have derped the usual bits, stoked how the factory wheels turned out, saved me about $800 in trd wheels. Wrangler duratracs, chase rack with fiskar shovel and axe, rotopax, 33" led bar and reverse pod, husky mats, blah blah.
Thanks to this forum for tons of help already, from platidip tips, the cubby 3 switch panel and the underhood fuse box relay, I've learned a ton. Looking forward to many more mods, toytech lift, winch and lo pro winch bumper are next.

Here are some black ones but he is proud of them..

 

Yeah i'd say so lol especially with no headrests.

 

Got 5000mi service done as well as Trans TSB and drums were resurfaced due to being warped.
Such a better ride now.
No more delayed shifts or shaking when braking. NICE RIDE!!!

 

The rear one was bent on delivery, i installed them anyways but it vibrated against the window on hwys. avs sent me regular in-channels for free. low pros were a bit too low pro for my liking

 

I actually like the 2nd generation skid plate better. Did it require any modifications to put on? Can you just put on the front piece? Is this a Pro skid plate and do you have a part number? Thank You.....

 

Debadged

 

Its the off road 2nd gen skid, not trd pro.
Goes right over the black factory one just need a little longer bolts up front and either bigger spacers or washers to pull it away from the bumper a bit.

 

Yea I was just grouping tacomas as 2nd gen and all other 4x4 toyotas as 1st. Your right

 

Got my 10k / 12 month service done today (only 3,900 miles on it though) and the Rev 1 TSB done today, hope it fixes the cold 3-4 Flare that happens once it sets for awhile.

 

Needs a lady friend to help out with boredom because this is outrageous

 

Just installed hid kit in about ten minutes $30.00 kit off eBay platinum white hids

 

Thanks for the info...

 

N fab and 30 inch radiance- didn't want to install behind the grille
