What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Lift looks great! You should go with the 285 tires. I just went up to 265/75/16 and they look too small on stock suspension. I don’t really notice the difference from 265/70/16.

 

Thanks for the compliment!

I’m just worried that by going to 285’s I may need a cmc and spacers. Probably well worth it though

 

I think you are right, but if looks matter I would go with 285 and then figure out how to make them fit.

 

I agree w you

 

Bought some stuff. Now the waiting game begins.

 

Assume no one was hurt. That was pretty darn close!

 

Dang Well At least you didn't have to pay a tree guy to cut it down to start with but none the less hope everyone was okay

 

I wonder how many people here actually remember Mr. Bill......

 

I do notice a lot of chrome haters here, to each his own. I have a black truck, so some chrome actually looks really good, but I can also see the desire to remove it on other colors.

 

Clear coat is dry so I put the shackles back together. I'm really pleased with how they came out. Now I just need the Demon Brackets to arrive so I can install them.

 

And me and my '17 can't figure out what to do with the one that came with the truck (don't own a GoPro).

 

Do you have a Brand and number of the cap you are using?

 

For me it's the chrome rear bumper that I found to be objectionable. Maybe if the front bumper was chrome as well it wouldn't look so out of place and would have given the Tacos some symmetry. I actually like the contrast that the small chrome accents give to my MGM paint.

 

I agree with you - it is a great accent on many trucks. For me, it's just the Army coming out in me - don't want that chrome reflecting sun and giving up your position.

 

AGREED. There's a justification there. It has to work, and never fail. Happy Trails man.

 

I actually like the blacked out look as well as the debadged look and if cost wasn't an issue I'd probably own one of each style.
And yeah, chrome on Army green wouldn't cut it for me either.
Have you seen the green phase Toyota logo stripes yet? I've seen a green forerunner with them where I work, very subtle and look pretty sharp.

With the exception of a few Franken Tacomas that I've seen I pretty much like them all. I'd have to try really hard not to like a Tacoma. They may not all be to my particular taste but there are very few that I wouldn't mind having in my driveway.

 

You can slap a dashcam or a radar detector on there. There's lots of kits out for adapting cameras and things to that mount.
I have a cheap dashcam on mine that works great!

 

I haven't seen them. I'll have to search around for a picture.

 

Got me as well. Well played sir, well played indeed. o7
