What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

These weren't "sketchy" planes. When you see interviews with the pilots a common theme is the beating those planes could take. How many holes they could take and still fly. And there is do much news real footage of US and British bombers landing on grass fields all shot to hell you could trip over the reels without much effort. Air power was the key to winning the war on both the German and Japanese fronts. We didn't do that with sketchy planes.

 

Saw this exhibit also. Amazing history.

 

It’s def a lot of change to get used to as far as size and some other things but this new tricks fits the bill for now with no kids

 

My light bar showed up. Pretty damn quick too, thanks Diode Dynamics! Install was a bit of a pain, one of the brackets was slightly off angle but I made do with it.

 

Off-Grid Engineering aux battery mount, Redarc MPPT controller on main battery, Full Throttle Group 35 AGM aux battery. Next up, my Cascadia 4x4 solar panel. And maybe swapping out the stock Group 24 OEM battery, though that would be overkill at this point. Also need to now swing over the aux fuse block over to the aux battery.

There are a couple of marine custom cable manufacturers that will make exactly what you want, with the terminals clocked to exactly fit if you specify what you need (so you're not twisting the crap out of the wire to connect it). I only apply that level of nerditry to high-amperage primary wiring.

And replacing the black cap for the aux battery positive fuse. Why? That's gonna OCD me to death. That's what shipped in the kit.

Had to drill out the OEM rear J-hook for the stock battery and hog it out and clean it up a bit. It's spot welded at 3 points to the hold-down bar; not removable like the front one.

Not a biggie, but if you're going to retain the OEM battery for a while, the OG Engineering aluminum main under-battery mount will raise things up ~1/4", which is too much for the rear spot-welded J-hook to deal with, and you don't want to use the pretty billet OG top bar until you go with a maintenance-free battery. It'll block the fill caps.

 

That is unless they want to replace our constitutional republic with a socialist government.

 

Beautiful truck! How much of a lift do you have? I have a similar setup.

 

Trd pro stock lift + wescott Trd pro lift

I have a CMC, but will
Definitely need some more cutting to minimize rubbing

 

False Dilemma- Sometimes referred to as Bifurcation, this type of fallacy occurs when someone presents their argument in such a way that there are only two possible options.

• If you don’t vote for this candidate, you must be a Communist.

 

it's a perfectly cromulent argument

 

I find your statement both shallow and pedantic.

 

TJM rear bumper to replace the plastic stocker.

 

1.5 front, 1 in rear. Hows the ride so far? Do you like it? Im thinking about this

 

i agree as well

 

It’s great! No complaints

 

Well at least it comes in black. So... yeah. I'm down. Group buy??

 

Tossed together a quick paracord grab handle.



It's my first time working with paracord and I wanted to use red but stores either didn't have red or it was thinner than I wanted so black it is.

Hey guys I wrote a beginners guid to VF tuner. If you don't know about it this is one of the best mods you can get for a 3g Tacoma


I noticed we had good walk throughs for installations and editing but nothing for really where to even start for those that don't even really know what a tune is or what it involves. please check it out and let me know what you think
