What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Sounds like you could use some 'roo bars.



For those unfamiliar, they're supposed to prevent this:

 

Same with my Samsung S8. Solved it buying replacing my phone with a Pixel 3 that doesn’t have wireless charging...

 

Many years ago I bought a Nexus 6. Also bought a no name Chinese wireless charging cradle. Both it and the phone still work flawlessly to this day. The phone has never been charged plugged in. It also has phenomenal battery life, I can go 4 days and more without recharging. That's amazing given the phones age. I don't understand why the Taco wireless charger sucks so bad. It ain't rocket science. Somebody must have gotten a kickback for making a deal with a garbage supplier.

 

Haven’t printed them or tested them but I modeled some center cap badges for the OEM Off-Road wheels.

 

If you have remote start kit, it shouldn't be a problem. You can let it run for a few minutes and you will get into a cool cab. Which I have mine installed last fall.

 

The one advantage that i can see a slush box has. ​

 

Truck looks great, nice work. Looks like you have the 6112s on notch 5 on the passenger side, so 6 on the driver for the lean? What coils did you go with 600 or 650. How was doing the ECGS bushing swap? How is the ride compared to stock? What did you do in the back, add-a-leaf, blocks?

 

Installed some TRD OR 4Runner wheels and some 265/70/17 Wildpeaks. Nice and smooth on the ride home.

 

Your Nexus 6 still works today? That was my favorite phone but after 3 years it was super slow.

 

Got my BJ Baldwin trophy truck patch installed...extra 5hp right there lol. This patch collecting thing can get addictive.

 

Finally done... tuned everything and enjoying it.

Threw down some heritage color on my grill. I dig it. A tip of the cap to Toyota's glorious past...

 

FYI, N2 Designs makes one compatible with real trucks.

 

Gotta love a good handshake

 

There is no way I'm going to leave my truck in neutral without chocking the wheels.

 

Don't you park it in reverse, anyway? Steepest gear for best holding power if I'm not mistaken.

 

I use 1st. Aside from the gear ratio, is there a difference?

 

Realistically, I doubt it. If some external force is able to overcome the gearing in 1st, I'm sure it can do it in reverse.

Pedantically, I think you are "supposed" to use the steepest gear but I'm sure that its never practically necessary.

 

I hadn’t considered that some people don’t chock their truck when they park it.
