What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

De-badged.

I had originally dipped the emblems black but they still kinda stuck out to me. This look is way cleaner & goes better with my black-out theme. Thirsty work:

 

I wanted more of a level look so I went with 885 coils on Bilstein 5100's and decided on a 1" block on the back. The back is a little over 1/4 higher which is perfect for what I was going for.

 

A few small mods today. Nothing major. Also installed a screen protector on the stereo face.

 

Did some minor offroading (really more just dirt road strewn with gravel) near the Simpson Springs Campground in Tooele County, Utah when one of my original Goodyear tires decided it had had enough after 25,000 miles:



I was thinking about replacing the tires soon anyway since I drove with an alignment issue for a while and they had some majorly uneven wear so I just upgraded all 4 to 265/75R16 BFG KO2s. Looks pretty good even with no lift, yes there's no rubbing, yada yada:

 

I have had mine nearly a year and love them. I ended up doing front Bilsteins at 0.65 setting due to slight rub at full lock on mud flaps plus it made the front level.

 

No mudflaps so hopefully I won't have that issue. Looks like yours are 17" tho.

I debating about going white walls out, but I am terrible at keeping the thing clean so I decided to hide them.

 

The picture of the tire is actually quite interesting visually.

 

Got my TRD logos put on my wheels

 

After getting all the boxes in from this post: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...-3rd-gen-today.399305/page-4322#post-17708479

It was time to unpack and get going with a sticker:


some key covers:

Don't hate on the yellow. It will make sense soon.

a functional addition to the armrest:


a hitch step:



mudflaps:






Tonneau Cover that sadly has some "love stains" on it:






Gotta see if that comes out with a wash..

A front bumper guard:





Some side steps:




New blurred out tags:





And the Inaugural hauling trip getting some mulch:



And there will be more to follow once time allows......

 

Sorry I didn't even notice you said 16's. It is an offroad so big DUH. Another senior moment. 1st one today.

 

I took off the mudflaps. I’ll probably do the CMC but right now with daily driving I don’t have any issues. Speeding through corners or going up abrupt driveways or change in pavement at an angle, I thought I would have rubbing but so far so good. I did trim about an 1 1/2 inches of plastic off the actual bottom part of the fender flare underneath (you can’t even see it). That was more procautionary than anything. I think that’s why I don’t rub when changing terrain abruptly. Best setup so far for me!

 

Went by my local Toyota dealer and picked up some stuff I ordered a while ago..

 

It's a secret . Just something small. When I get the rest of the parts for my compressor install, I'll install what I got today and post pics

 

Ooh, ooh I know!

 

This is some of my dllema. I love the prinsu rack, but I also love my sunroof, so I don’t know if it make sense to add one to my truck.

 

Totally get that. Prinsu still gives you full use of the sunroof, just have a crossbar somewhat blocking the view. Just dont use the load plates bc those will totally block the view. I've got 2 of them that I haven't installed yet

 

nice!
How many square feet did you buy?

 

New ICON wheels and 285/70/17 MT MTZs

 

Ok, I need this! Please post a link! Thanks.

 

Very nice combination! Looks fantastic!
