What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Changed my oil and spark plugs 2017 170k miles

 

Deleted chrome bumpers today with Bumpershellz. Looks so much better on my MGM. Blackout is complete until I do headlights and tailights.

 

The bumper caps really change the look in my opinion. I would also look into getting different taillights without the chrome inside. Really completed the appearance.

 

I have to disagree with you. I have the inserts and I think it’s a nice subtle touch. Still looks way better.

 

17" 0 Offset tiers are 265 70 i actually have them on atm but havnt taken a photo yet as i still need to wash my truck XD ill be posting it up this weekend after i clean it.

Spoiler alert they looks sexy AF! Atlest i think so lol

 

I tackled the lift by myself in my driveway. It was tough. It was just me. Looking back, I would have finished waaaaay sooner if I had gotten some help. If I change my suspension down the road, I'll definitely have help. The bushing was no where near as bad, in my opinion. It was a little nerve-racking making sure pieces of the bearing didn't fall back into the case, but the videos out there on removal and installation are really good. I bought the removal tool, not the installation tool. I felt the removal tool was worth it. The space is limited. Installing the bushing was a lot like installing a pinion seal on a rear end. It was as expected: a pain but nothing I hadn't done before. Whatever you decide to do, good luck!

 

Oh cool. Would you mind posting a pic, and where you got your letters? I'm not opposed, but I haven't seen them on MGM. If I do it, I'll have to splurge and get the chrome delete for the raised letter emblems.

 

So, yesterday I installed the anytime front camera and the decal on the sensor cover thing. Well, I did some of the install but my S/O soldered the wires. I guess I ordered the one you have to solder wires to but luckily someone in my household was handy and had the tools already lol.

I mounted it on a bracket I got from @mdh_us and it made the mounting part super easy. I really liked the holes were pre drilled for the grill mount annd the hole I had to drill myself for camera placement/preference.

Since I had to remove the grill anyway, I finally decided it was a good time to place the decal on the Toyota logo that I got from c_mento_taco_808 about a year ago. I accidentally broke one of tabs on it but superglued it back.

Overall, it was kind of a struggle the front camera kit but got it done. And here’s a picture to show.

I think next, I’ll get around to installing the shift knob I got from @oostroma in the near future. I just procrastinate A LOT.

 

I really like those wheels. They are on my short list of wheels I'm considering when I have to get new tires.

 

Nice work! Diggin the decal.

 

I got them on Amazon. Subtle but totally worth it. They are more noticeable when it is brighter out obviously. Tailgate Insert Letters... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GWW6299?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

 

Installed the Caliraised LED Premium Roof Rack. I just finished the install today. A couple notes...the video on their webpage helps a lot. Watched it several times pre-installation and during install. But for me, the side panels and extrusions did not match exactly and it was a pain in the ass to get all the screws all the way in. Mounting lights, front panels and rear panels pretty straight forward, but the side panels were a real b*tch.

The wiring harness for the light bar was helpful, but the 2-pin DTP plug on the wiring harness did not match the 2-pin plug on the light. Had to cut the plugs off and solder/heat shrink, etc to get the light to work. That was disappointing.

With those couple negative notes, I do like the looks of the rack. I like the flip up light bar cover. I haven't driven too far today, but haven't noticed any wind noise so far. But I haven't been over 50 mph. I will hit the highway tomorrow and have a better idea then.

Pics show headlights and light bar comparison and rack with light bar cover opened and closed.

 

Yes, subtle was exactly the word that came to mind when I saw the pics. They do look pretty good. Thanks!

 

Installed OEM Tailgate Lock with a remote, swapped wheels to trd pro's and Falken tires. Installed trd pro tail lights. Sound deadening and speakers upgrade next..

TRD PRO Exhaust worth it or not? I can't decide.. is it really same as stock or at least a little different sound?

 

Really getting stuff done fast! I was the same way. What do you plan to do for speaker upgrade? Any plans for a lift?

 

Thanks I appreciate the info. I really like doing things myself for savings and gaining experience. I just worry some of this may be a little over my head, mainly the ECGS installation. I also really hate asking others for help.

 

The morimotos are sexy. I must resist!!

 

Yeah I want to do it all at once and be done with it so I can enjoy it
I was stretching out on mods with 4runner until the better half crashed it to the point where I had to sell it... ( luckily it was good time to sell )

Noico sound deadening, JBL speakers swapp to the better JBL's, doors only.

so far I like it without the lift but will see , maybe in the future will go with Eibach's stage 2 but might need help with that one...

 

I’m in the same boat. I have modified to the point where I am content, however I am now considering a lift. It never ends!
