What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

How do you disconnect the power for the mirrors?

 

The wiring harness is tucked into the headliner with some slack and a connector. Once you take out the two screws and pop the visor off the ceiling you can’t miss it.

 

Beats hecho in China!

 

Installed mesos hex rack to mount a board for the short riding season which will soon be upon us. Cakewalk. Took like 30 minutes on my lunch break with tools I had in the truck. I was having trouble finding a spot to store a board in the cab where it wouldn’t flop around or tear up the seats and I thought this was a novel idea.



I only have a couple more seasons in me before falling turns from a pain to a concern, so at that point I’ll use the rack to hold prunes or the daily crossword I guess.

At the dealer now! 36k check, ecu update, wind noise driver door, 3rd brake light.

 

These are available to purchase now?

 

I hear what you’re saying. I did a test fit initially and it did fit but the bracket was too close for comfort to the brake wire. If you look closely you can see I did a little trimming to that corner of the power tray. I’ve also been doing test fits periodically as I make progress and so far so good but we’ll see. I appreciate your advice though. Out of curiosity do you have any pictures of your power tray set up?

 

Calirasised and Tacomalifestyle have them in stock some how?

I’d been searching for one since Jan and kept missing them on the for sale forum. After a deal with a member here didn’t go through, I googled the model number instead of the product name and found they had been in stock the whole time I was looking ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

I forget who drives that one - Great knives from that company and they love overlanding/bush craft skills.

Thanks,
the locking hardware they sell is outrageously priced, you can buy the same hardware for less money through Graingers.com

 

Don’t mind the mess… my excuse is I just removed some things, moved somethings and have to add a few others, so the wiring looks like ass (sigh). The second pic I’m attempting to show the bolts, which are underneath the tray. I can’t remember for sure but I think I need the clearance to get the fuse box lid off.

 

$24k? Holy hell. I've been finding them for $6k-$10k CAD. I kinda want to get one for my wife, she's an elementary teacher and we have two Huskies; the kids would go nuts over a little Japanese firetruck with doggos.

 

Yes the locking hardware is just an option, the choice is yours...

 

Loaded to the gills. 50 bags of mulch. The Dobinsons handled it with ease. Only problem was I had to put 2 bags in the back seat. It was getting a bit full back there.

 

There are several here in my part of Canada mainly used by landscaping companies

 

It’s all good brother! I see what your saying about the bolts being on the underside. I would much rather have the clearance for the brake booster wire and fuse box cover like yours, but I’ll deal with what I got for now. Maybe I’ll make an adapter in the future to relocated the whole bracket up an inch or so…Thanks for the pic!
