What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Any night time pics of front and back?

 

I added a sweet badge to the 20 TRD grille. The truck was all looking monochrome black and grey (with DRLs off) and I wanted just a little color.

 

Picked up the Taco from the bodyshop with a 2020 facelift. Custom OEM LEDs. These things are sweet.

 

Love the Oem led !
Can’t wait

 

Looks awesome! Diggin the front bumper bumper too!

 

Thanks! I just received my rear Billstein 5100’s and am waiting for the fronts. Should be here in about a week or so. Already have my OME 886’s and Headstrong Off-road 3 leaf progressive pack. Super excited to get them in!

Edit: Again your truck looks awesome!

 

Welcome to the club!

 

huh?? What am I missing?

 

JLT catch can, blends in, don't even notice it.

 

Oil catch can. It catches oil that may get into places it shouldn't be, which causes buildup on the valves. Particularly important on direct injected engines. However, these engines are both port and direct injected (direct when you need power and port when you don't). Port injected engines don't run into this issue as much because the fuel injectors spray across the valves, thus cleaning them off and reducing build up.

 

Ill look into it... I was wondering if it was something other than Captaining your Tacoma as a U-boat.

 

Look at the post he quoted.

Edit: Nevermind they covered it already.

 

Suspension install - Bilstein 6112s + 5160s + Deaver Stage 2 pack:




Can't recommend enough @Jason TRD OR for all your install needs. Thanks Jason!

 

@playdixie So you just saved me a bit o' cash. Thank you . Interestingly Bam has its own Amazon site, and charges a bit more than its regular site to give you "free shipping."

 

Back in college, it was motorcycle parts.

 

looks solid! Aiming for that exact setup hopefully soon. How’s the ride so far?

 

Put in 3 lights, 2 on the rack, and one on the back of the rear door. I'll wire them up maybe tomorrow.

only drove back home, so not much to report yet. But so far so good!

 

Out with the old, in with the new!

Old compressor wasn't cutting it, decided to go engine mounted with the ARB single motor. Loving it already!

 

Figured you could use this for part your install at least. Interestingly thought the ubolts are not marked as a non reusable part (I get the reading on the subject but it’s in the manual). Also take note of the ubolt torque (seems to be the revised number from the 37 originally printed and 73 assuming typo) but that’s for the stock bolts- I’d still use what the recommended spec is on their (headstrong in this case) replacement bolts at 75-80.
I plan on installing the hs 3leaf aal tomorrow but will wait on the sumo springs bump stops until I figure out what to do about the u bolt issue. The factory bump stop bracket is actually notched where the u bolts rest so maybe it’s thick enough allowing the bolts to sit flat. But I honestly can’t be the only person to add the 3leaf aal on stock pack AND install the sumo spring bump stops. So why can’t I find anyone else that has a gap with the ubolts/sumo spring bracket is frustrating (unless they have the same and either didn’t notice or don’t care)
