What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Took a pic

 

Cover is a hard, tri-fold one!

I appreciate the kind words!!

 

Happy that I could enable your Tacoma addiction. It was @arthur106 that told me about them, in this thread.

 

It's interesting you bring this up because I have been thinking the same thing. I upgraded from my 2018 Sport to a 2021 OR and can definitely tell the power difference. This was also the case for my 2021 AG.

 

Everything. Color match, everything.

 

Haven't posted in a while but I've done a lot to the truck since April. Gonna take a few posts but I'll try to date them as I go. Photo heavy!

Mid April - Added Baja Designs Squadron Sports (Clear Driving Combo Lens) with Rago Fabrication low profile ditch brackets.
Before:

After:


End of April - Received my CBI Sliders (Painted), 'Overland' Skid Plates (Raw Metal), and Gas Tank Skid Plate (Raw Metal). Side note: Really wish I had this for my Arkansas trip, I damaged the stock skid plates pretty bad, gouged the plastic gas tank skid and left some good marks on my rear diff.



Early May - Painted the skid plates (don't have pictures installed). Took the time to learn how to prep and paint metal. Started from gas tank skid and worked my way forward.

 

Continued from the last post, also photo heavy. I hope its not against the rules for double (maybe triple) posting.

Mid May - Made my own 4 tire inflation system, received my 285/70r17 Cooper Discoverer STT Pro and Method 703s




End of May - Got the tires mounted on the rims, still waiting on all the pieces of the lift from AccutuneOffRoad. Also hammered the pinch weld and adjusted the fender liner. Got really impatient and installed the new wheels on without my lift. Rubbed on the cab mount and a little on the front fender liner at half lock and full lock. Really like the look of the bigger tires with no lift though.

 

How did you mount the net on the inside above the seat? That’s a fantastic idea!

 

I'm sorry, but I do not. Not sure where she got it from. All I know is that it already had the sticky tape on it so it was very easy to install. If I had to guess, likely Etsy, Amazon, or e-bay.

 

I cannot tell much of a power difference.

 

Continuation of the my last 2 posts. Also photo heavy

Early June - Installed anytime front camera, installed 3 pairs of USB ports (6 ports, 2.1A ea.) on my DMM, driver side footwell, and the rear of the center console, laid the custom wiring harness for up to 3 radios (CB, GMRS and HAM), installed a 12v Panel in the bed (for fridge and charging portable work lights), ran my CB antenna (no mount yet) and GMRS Antenna.



Harness for future radios (red) and USBs (blue)


Photos after installing the USB Ports. Ports at the driver footwell are hidden.




Wiring harness looks like stock, but I can easily access the 6 quick connects to install the radios.


My garmin inreach is now always charging (yes I fixed the hanging zip tie mount)


12v Panel in the bed


Drilled and installed the front camera on the 2021 TRD Off-road Grill



GMRS Antenna Location

 

It’s actually sold from Blueridge Overland! It hooks to the “oh-shit-bar” in the front, as it gets mounted into the little clothing hooks above the back window!

 

Added a Pelican Cargo bx135 with the cross bed mount. Fits under a Retrax tonneau cover no problem. I’m stoked, it’s a great solution for me, will get lots of use out of it. Leaves me with 27” of bed space lol, but it can be removed in under a minute.

 

Of course out of stock but will keep my eye out on it. Thanks for the info!

 

I drilled through mine and was then able to use an easy out. But a machine or fabrication shop would be your best bet.

 

Night run

 

If I remember it’s kinda hidden by or near the plastic box/cover located nearby

 

Thank you, My thoughts are with you

 

Thank you… you as well

 

May I ask where you got these strips?
