What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I knew I had another brother out there! We were separated at birth haha.

 

Just ordered and put a deposit down for my Old Man Emu basic lift, Nitrocharger Sport shocks, medium duty Dakar leafs. Having it installed at a local shop that deals with a lot of the off road community up here. It's a special order so may take upwards of 2-3 weeks but I'm stoked either way!

 

Took the kids fishing and then washed it. Pleased with simplicity and results of the spray wax (Meguiar's hybrid ceramic).

 

yep. New Port Richey by Jack Mitchell park

 

Painted the 4x4 and TRD PRO badges red. Black badges on a black truck did look right to me. Also spray tinted the taillights. They were too clear and didn't look right to me.

 

Definitely cool point for originality... now fire the lasers

 

I got a set off eBay too. DON'T! The internals are not the same as the black OEM handles - and the OEM handles are the SAME PRICE. The eBay handles will last a couple of years then the plastic will wear out at the spring and the handle will not return when released. Just a friendly suggestion

 

Changed my oil, filter, spark plugs, detail, & installed a pedal commander.

 

I installed front wheel well splash guards. Mod and plans courtesy of

No worries man. I'm here for a good time, learn some shit about my truck, maybe share some shit that people can use or like, a few laughs and no drama.

Saul Goodman!

 

McGeorge Toyota

 

I did the rear diff breather mod but could use some advice since the install on an SR5 is a little different

 

I attached my new solar panel today. Got room for a second one beside it if I end up needing one. Still waiting on the controller to come in the mail.

 

Here's a link to a previous post with a couple pics of my truck. I'm having issues uploading pics at the moment.

Looks good man!

 

Had a small amount of rust on splash guard. Removed it, sanded with 60 grit, and sprayed with Rustoleum truck bed coating for preventative maintenance and aesthetic.

 

What advice/help do you need? Did mine a few years ago (routed it to the taillight) and it was pretty straight forward.

 

Bed liner as said before or just pick up another one for like $20 people are selling them all the time and they’re just held on by clips so easy to swap

 

You dont have to turn it side ways to get a good foaming action do you? I bought sud magic (in Amazon) and when the bottle is vertical it’s ok but a watered down foam but when the bottle is horizontal it’s a thick foam… it pisses me off

good thing for us mgm, it’s not a huge difference but I like it without. I think it’s because the stock black vinyl isn’t fluid in the transition
