What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Love the sliders and diamondback!

 

will do. Getting closer but lots of little things left to do

 

Rig looks great!
Take it from vast experience and disappointments, if those are in fact RotoPax on your roof rack, and you have locks on them............trust me when I say, grease the SHIT out of the locks and then find (I printed some out of mat black vinyl on my personal cutter) some waterproof circle stickers to put over the front of the locks.
I had 3 different sets of RotoPax locks completely 100% lock up on me, after water got in them when I mounted them horizontally on my roof rack. After just a year or less they became utterly useless.
The vinyl disks/circle stickers I cut and printed out, are made from Oracal 851, and dont let any water in the lock what-so-ever. Trust me, grease alone wont keep out the weather!
Ask me how I know........

 

None so far. Pretty straightforward, carpeted, lights all work as supposed to. What are the negatives you're reading?

 

Yep, I've heard horror stories of people counting on them out in the middle of nowhere only to fail and leave them stranded.

 

Yummy

 

Dropped off at Toyota, you would think after specifically scheduling to inspect the window they’d let me know their technician or whoever would be able to fix it isn’t coming until Monday but I guess I have to leave it there over the weekend. Anyway, got a call back that the track is bent so I’m sure they’ll let me know how much it’ll cost on Monday. They said “seems like someone was already in here” and I told them I had to get in there so I can at least close the window, didn’t want to leave it open all week— can’t blame me right? It’s 2 years old anyway, I’m sure there isn’t any warranty for it anymore.

 

Washed up

 

Won’t wash my rides again till late April. No point, it will be covered with green dust in a day, there will be an 1/8 inch of green pollen on everything for several weeks.

On an another note, love this thread but dang y’all are gonna have me hemorrhaging cash will all these cool mods, lol

 

After finally receiving my SSO Slimline bumper, I found myself at Harbor Freight.......
From the reviews I've been reading, this thing seems to perform excellent. Now I just need some warm-ish weather to install it into the SSO bumper, then install the bumper into the Taco!

 

It looks better without those stinkin badges.

 

What’s the advantage of that over the oem one?

 

Easy on the knees…

 

Yep, easier on the knees, and the aluminum is much nicer than the corrugated plastic that comes OEM, both for sliding cargo in as well as just sitting on. IMHO, it also looks way better.

 

You will really like that addition, I got just a cheap one and it makes loading, crawling into the bed or just sitting on it 100x nicer!

If I may.....I would like to thank everyone who read my post. Beleive it or not, I received more Birthday wishes from this post than I did from the whole 5 Birthday cards I received on my Birthday.
As to a question I got, the mud flaps are Weathertech. That was a year ago when I got the truck. I tried getting the flaps from Toyota. The parts guy said that because I have an SR, my truck does not have the add on fender flairs that other models have. Therefore, the flaps won't fit. Oh Well!!!!! Other than that, everything I have bought has fit.
Thanks again!!!!! This is the best forum on the Net!!!!!

Stock piling parts due to a bathroom remodel. Mama bear says no playing Taco until the bathroom is done.
Body Armor Bumper, RC Black series 30" light bar kit for the lower bumper grill, 20" RC light bar for the bumper, Moly grease for the shackles, and a new Taco Tub.

 

Ok, I am 50/50 with the decals for +5hp. Thoughts?

 

If it was my truck I wouldn’t. You just debadged it just to put that graphic badge on it. In the end it’s what you like best since it’s yours.

 

At first I thought your grille said “go away” and I got really excited
