What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I do now.

 

Thanks!

 

Thank you! I’ll check them out.

I’ve been looking for days. They have aluminum and zinc, but no stainless.

Thank you, but I’m looking for the little nuts for the Load bars for a prinsu rack.

I’ve seen those, but I don’t think they’re stainless steel.

I also want to thank @RivetNutBob for the tip on rustolium textured. Used it to clean up a used rack I recently purchased.

 

Decided to add an on board water supply to my truck. Those pressurized rinsekits, road showers, water ports, and pvc tube tanks never work because the capacity is low and you always have to pressurize the system after you initially use the system to squeeze out their full capacity. I decided to add a 20gal tank and an rv pump to supply 2 spray ports (one on either side of the vehicle), I also added a gravity fill port and gauge. Hooked it up to my Switch-Pros Panel and Voila, Camp/Beach shower. The Plus is, I still have room for my camping gear, since I run a rooftop tent and have a roof rack the space left is just right for the rest of my gear. Tank is easily removable too.

 

thats pretty epic

 

Gotta love the feeling of de-chroming parts of the tacoma, first time using vinyl wrap, I would say it's not terrible but not great, lots of inconsistencies. Probably gonna rewrap it in the future

 

I’m in the north burbs (Ramsey). They are shutting down a bunch of stores because of all the looters.

 

I switched plates. Shout out to Mr Jack for the lift.

 

Added Baja Designs S2 pros on bed rack

 

So maybe 3/16 full open stokie hood struts.

 

I tried those 80/20 inserts off Amazon, definitely not stainless. They started rusting in 3 days. Ended up redesigning my setup and used stainless carriage bolts.

 

I thought about forward operating base; that's a good interpretation - I remember all the fobbits in Iraq.

Even between agencies in a close geographic area, the slang (and 10 codes, phonetic alphabets, etc.) are different.

 

Wow, you really sent it. Looks awesome.

 

Gunmetal in gloss. Also comes in Matt. The gloss matches the MGM better.

 

Installed a tepui autana 3 on my kbvoodoo rack today

 

That's pretty hardcore. I can't even put one hole for a Safari snorkel lol. Good job buddy!!!

 

Got the 2020 trd pro wheels installed today and 2020 SR grille a few weeks back.

 

We did get issued with a curfew notice here, but around here nothing is open anyways and no one just walks around at night.

 

Just finished a paint and swap on these calipers today. Really happy with the paint job. I used POR-15 caliper paint- good for high temperature applications.



Bleeding and testing went well too. I'll revisit these in another two years.



What do you guys prefer for wheel parts? Paint or powder coat? I went with paint so that I can do touch ups at home. But I know that powder coat is longer lasting so I'm probably going to send the original set off to get powder coated at a local shop.

 

I’m more sketched about cutting the hole for a snorkel with a jig saw than punching these holes with a hole saw.
