What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

THANK YOU!!! This was perfect!!! I’m gona do this!!!

 

This is helpful too!!! TKS!! Am I clear that he sells different sizes? I’m 5 foot any idea what I should go with.... guess I could contact him. Lol

 

I'm curious if anyone has had an issue finding a rear dome led bulb for their 2017 taco. I've tried 2 different bulbs but neither of them fits. The original bulb (pic 1) has a unique tip and the purchased bulb (pic 2) doesn't . The bulbs are the same total length but because of the shape difference the new bulbs won't fit. Anyone had this issue or have any suggestions?

 

First 2 things I noticed after putting the spacers under my seat was I had to re-adjust the rear view mirror. And my ass didn't feel like it was being sucked in the bottom back of the seat like before. Highly recommend the seat spacers.

 

When will it fall? Lol

 

June

 

Put on the Pro wheels today. Now it’s time to clean the truck as soon as this weather allows.

 

Pick up a couple washers for under the bolt heads. You can get them at any farm supply store.

 

Yeah i had the same issue at first with the Philips bulb i bought.
The gerth on the new bulb ramps up quicker than the stock, so it doesnt pop in super easy.
To get mine to fit, i just bent open the slit in the metal prong on drivers side and no issue.

 

I don't see this on their site.... very clean. Mind if I ask how MUCH? How hard was the install? Any cutting?

 

Or get hardened flange bolts for $0.96ea. at Bolt Depot: https://www.boltdepot.com/Product-Details.aspx?product=18535
LOL, costs more to ship them.

 

washed it!

 

Yeah 2 washers from the local Farm Supply store.... 56 cents. LOL.

 

Joe @Mobtown Offroad should be posting it soon. I am not sure on pricing yet because it depends on options and I was a test vehicle. Install is pretty straight forward, similar to SSO slimline install. Very minimal cutting, but there is some. It basically takes the place of the black plastic piece and you trim right along one of the body lines, then cover with edge trim.

You can def dm Joe for more info and pricing. Weight is 70lbs which is probably only about 40lbs more than what’s is coming off during install. I love it so far. I came from a full plate bumper on my second gen which was too much for my uses. I am trying to still keep this build light and quick, as quick as it can be. @OVTune FTW.

 

I’m 5’8”. The 1” spacers seems perfect to me but it’s the only one I’ve tried. Only took 10 mins including scrounging up the tools. Highly recommend.

 

May have to try that. Just don't want to mess anything up. Thanks for the tip.

 

Two quick mods today in between Saturday chores and rain.
I put vinyl cutouts on all four four sills and a 3M hook on the gas door
Both are temporary until I can save up my pennies for more permanent solutions

 

Installed RCI front skid.

 

I cleaned my carpet
