What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

You should just send it to me and I'll suffer through the pain of staring at the red letters for you.

 

Changed out these today. Went with the

$124 Toyota PT413-42191 Fog Light (Black), 1 Pack

Toyota PT413-42191 Fog Lights. Also added the led raptor lights as well.

 

Why don't you guys go out and use the skid plate. It won't much matter what color it is once you dent and scratch the heck out of it.

 

Got a ratcheting bar, works wonders
Keeps everything from sliding everywhere

 

The garage door opener was giving me trouble so I pulled the trigger on the Gentex Homelink mirror. Very easy install, only hard part is remembering that’s what I push to open the garage door now.

Also, dipped the Bro badge & “installed” some Amazon lug nut covers to kill the last of the chrome.

 

Plastidip the v6 and Tacomas. Debadged the sr5

 

I almost did that too, but then took out the led light bulbs after some research. Replaced with typical bulbs, door opens from four houses down now.

 

Land locked!!! Lmao.

 

So what did I do today? While walking past the back of truck at work, I just noticed that my rear bumper is a bit... off.

Left side:


Right side:


Left top:

The difference in the fender-bumper gap is over a quarter-inch and its shifted to the left just a bit. Is this "typical"?

 

There are many posts on here where people loosened the bed bolts and made alignment tweaks. Seems fairly common.

 

Just a little dirty...

 

Ah. Thanks, good to know. I was thinking of adding some more d-rings to the bed floor, so long as I've got the bed bolts loose, I might try to do some "fine-tuning" at the same time.

That quirk has been there for the year-and-a-half that I've owned the truck, but now that I know it's there... Grrrrrrrrrr.

 

I don’t understand it so, I like it!

 

It had nothing to do with lights, the clicker was bad. Doesn’t work at all in colder weather and iffy any other time. I got sick of using the keypad so I bit the bullet on this. At least it works 100% of the time & no more getting back out of my truck because my clicker won’t work.

 

Got ya. Lots of people do the mirror because of signal issues. I was actually pretty surprised it was that simple in my case.

 

Finally got the skid plate on!

 

Installed a ARB Linx and a ARB dual comp a week or so ago. So far so good.

 

I just called and ordered the ARB Summit rear bumper, it will be delivered by this Wednesday or Thursday. That's a lot quicker than the wait I had for the front bumper, rails, and steps! I'm pretty excited. I'll post some pictures after I throw it on.

 

Is this like spilled milk?

If you want perfect tolerances buy a BMW truck, sorry Mark (poorly photo-shopped X5)
