What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

we only hear about the bad experiences at the dealers, not the millions that have no problems......and I'm not going to wrestle with that damn oil filter

 

Finally got to installing my MESO "ultimate 3rd brake light" today

 

the mud spots on the ff's dont seem to just wash off in the touchless wash so I will have to try to scrubb em with a rag or soft brush

 

Love this! What grille?

 

I’m actually in Ga. South of Atl. So it’s a 4 hour drive for me. I was up for a family reunion. Unfortunately I don’t get up there as much as I’d like to.

 

Installed:

SSO full plate bumper- Warn Winch - Two 30" Baja Designs light bars.

Stoked!

 

This looks awesome! I really like this bumper. What size tires and lift are you running?

 

Those are definitely awesome. Looked on the site and they just make them for the ATs, so I put a request in for a MT set.

 

Just got an email back, no love for the MT’s and they won’t make a set.

 

If what you had on weren’t snow tires. I don’t think I cwanna see what you use! Lol

 

So I ordered the cheapest set of 6x9’s an 6x 5’s I could find. (45 bucks) and another 45 on the wire adapters and mounting brackets.
Under the premise that ANYTHING is better than stock.
Amazon audiobank.

 

Damn that sucks! With the exception of that, mistakes happen, seems like the dual case is working out pretty well? I’ve been following along in the crawler thread. It absolutely SUCKS trying to crawl with the stock MT. Just not low enough.

 

Hard pass on DEPO on this truck. Their tails are garbage as well. I've had decent luck with DEPO on other vehicles but avoid them on the Taco.

 

and price for OEM isn't that much more ~ at least for taillights I think it was $30-40 more for OEM

 

Been busy af with a hardware failure @ work so haven't got to post this up on in this thread yet, but made some smol progress this weekend.

Washed the truck | Swapped in custom MGM painted MESO 4x4 and Start button surrounds | Felt taped more stuff to help with rattles.

Before and after with my stock dechromed & painted surrounds vs the painted MESO surrounds. The MESO pieces have a lot more style, I don't know why I didn't paint them before. Same paint & process in the before and after pics, I think the lighting was just different, so they appear lighter in the photos. Look great in the truck though <3



Also since the truck needs to go to Toyota for some warranty work soon, thought it would be a good idea to put the K&N sticker on the airbox finally.

 

I had on the stock tires, Firestone Destination LE2's, which are absolutely worthless in the snow. I go back to the Firestones for summer, that's about all they are good for. Does that answer your ??

 

I had you confused with another Mike. He was running 285/75’s. My bad.
