What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I got a few as well from a few stores cuz I had to wait a bit at each store. I didn’t mind at all and never let on if I did. Being silent has its rewards

 

I would think the only way to get a better picture for you would be to switch to using the Kenwood front and rear cameras and stop using the OEM Toyota ones. Of course I think you’d lose the 360 degree panoramic view.

 

WD 40 is really only a lubricant, water Displacement 40.,use anti seize

 

I second this. Keep it torqued for a few seconds can’t hurt either.

 

i'm crap with keeping up, so it's just a to-date since august 4 when i got it -- retrax cover, yakima overhaul, blackout emblems, lift kit, bed step, and amp powersteps. waiting on the replacement trd off-road 4x4 decals:

 

I don't have the 360... How does the mount look, of course the factory mount would be nice to maintain with a new camera, but guess not a perfect world situation!

 

It’s a bit overwhelming I get it. But once the list is done. Well nevermind the list is never done. Lol.

 

Free vacuum at the local car wash. Ole lady wants her suv detailed. Me?! No way it’s fine with the dust dirt mud grime and wtf is that?! On the floor. Lol

 

You sir have the last of the access cabs. Looking good.

 

thanks! yeah, after i saw about the new 2024s and the changes, i didn't wanna wait. was originally gonna be the gray, but it was missing a few things i wanted, so blue it was!

 

i think the worst / priciest stuff is done . . . for now.

 

Unfortunately I can't offer any advice on the truck (other than the different trims come with different shocks to match the intended use) but from my experience on my mountain bike the compression and rebound settings on the shocks (plus tire pressure) can make a massive difference between a planted ride and being tossed about. I'm sure there are many threads about suspensions on this forum where you can get real advice. So far my OR has handled rough roads pretty well (better than the 4Runner, but that has 250k miles on the suspension so it's not a fair comparison). Oh, and my MTB trail settings suck on the pavement.

Hey now I resemble that remark!! Lol

 

Oh yeah. Me too. The money pit does have a bottom. Somewhere.

 

Well mine is an SR trim, I guess I expected it to be more like the 4Runner, however it is after all a truck which is front-heavy. The positives out of this is 4wd works very well and I can always do like an upgraded suspension setup and lower tire pressure a little. Where the the road creases/divots or w/e you want to call them were not present, the truck did well and didnt seem to care that it was muddy. It was moderately muddy/slippery and I just used 4H. By the time I made it up to the highway the truck was covered lol.

 

I have the sr5 trim. And being an access cab made it even more of lower end trim
No cargo light. No switch. No relay for said switch. But I have it looking and functioning as a trd pro!

 

Fyi, with an access cab you don't have the infamous leak like the quad cabs. Also, an LED brake light for 2nd Gens fit.

 

Added Toyota hood graphic and made 1st attempt at vinyl wrap scoop. Will do that again as not perfect but I love the overall look

 

Oh no. Another mod! Thanks for the info.
Ebay might be a good place to locate a led third brake light b

 

Just MESO’d the crap out of my truck. Map lights, dome lights, total tails stage 1, license plate lights. So shiny!
