What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks good, so clean!

 

That Amazon link is to a watch.

 

Which tune do you have? My VF2.0 map left a lot to be desired and had a dead pedal for the first 1/3 of the pedal stroke. The KDMax Pro 9.0 (and now 10) fixed all of the issues the VF had. Both were way better than stock, but KD is the way to go.

 

cover the floor jack with a towel not to scratch this beauty.

 

No, actually I have not had one of these special tunes. I just meant the truck runs fine, I was just curious about the peddle commander.
I hadn't even heard about these other tunes. But now that I know, they sound worthy of looking into.

 

Thanks!
Ill definitely check that out.

 

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I went with KDMax tune and it has made the truck so much better. The post above with the links to the tunes is spot on.

Based on a lot of the feedback on the site the tunes are better than a pedal commander. The plus side is I've been able to get my tune upgraded for different tire sizes and when I regeared.

 

Purchased a new in box Eibach Stage 2 kit with Headstrong AAL off of Facebook Marketplace today for a STEAL. Going to be doing install tomorrow and will make another post after that. This is my first time DIY-ing a project this big and I'm excited!

Going to set the coilovers to just under 2" in the front to keep the factory rake. Keeping stock UCA's for now. ECGS bushing is en route via fedex, but I won't have it in time so it will have to wait until next weekend. I think the needle bearing will hold up for 1 week lol.

Im be doing this soon. How much bass u get out them 6x9s? Would u recommend a subwoofer or no they put out even amount over factory

 

I was following this thread https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ers-and-subwoofer.716167/page-6#post-27072001 and they ended up trying speakers like that, but then swapped them out to just 6x9 woofers because they didn't have enough bass.

 

Its personal preference; these Kicker 6x9 is enough bass over stock for my enjoyment, some may prefer more. I'm using factory radio & didn't want to upgrade all components w the addition of amplifier or more wiring.
This & the DS18 tweeters together sound satisfactory to me.

 

thank u

 

Quick Amazon turn-around and these review well. Hope it prevents some future mishaps.

 

Try ECT. I wasn't sure what that button did with my V6 first gen for years. It became apparent in my 3rd gen 4cyl.

I thought about getting a pedal commander as well. I just opted to save the loot and use my ECT button .... Especially on the highway

 

I flashed from normal to Lite…because I can.

 

Figured I would contribute. Got a great deal on a Fishbone Tackle bed rail.

 

Nice job. Had the Kicker/Subaru tweeters, but didn't notice much difference over OE. The DS18s make a BIG difference!

Great video... one tip is to put something around the speaker opening on the passenger side to prevent anything from falling down inside the dash.

Here's a link to the DS18s on Amazon:

May bad, fixed it.

I forgot, someone asked me where I got my watch.

 

Lucky it wasn't a link to, er, something else!
