What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Because you can and they look cool!

 

I second that, can't recommend it enough.

 

I decided to upgrade my 100% rear seat delete from Goose Gear to SHW Off-Road. I couldn't be happier with the design and functionality of my new rear seat delete.
I also added a DC power station (3 x USB Cs, 3 x USB As, and 1 x Marine Grade Cigarette Lighter) from Powerwerx. Which is controlled by my Auxbeam.com AC SERIES AC-1200. Powered by 2 x 100Ah 12V LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Battery from Battle Born Batteries.
Checkout my very detailed install video of the SHW Off-Road 100% Tall Rear Seat Delete for the 3rd Gen Tacoma. Along with my initial thoughts and review. There are detailed chapters you can find the part you're looking for.

Scan gauge 3 showed up today. It will definitely be inconvenient to mount compared to a 2 but damn that screen is nice.

 

Started noticing a squeaking sound over bumps, particularly pothole filled roads. I discovered that my windshield washer fluid reservoir was making this noise whenever I tried to wiggle it, for some reason. Nothing a little WD-40 couldn't solve. Hopefully that was the source though.

 

Nothing I did today...but some goofball decided to do this for me.

Oh and remember when I said: "if I had to do it again (apply the tailgate decal) I probably wouldnt?"

I guess we'll see.

 

Installed the rocky thingys...the instructions need some work. They need better photos. They need less jokey crap and more facts and guidance. And the YouTube videos can suck a$$. I'm busy wrenching. I don't want the phone involved.
There is quite a bit of loosening and adjusting to be done. The 23' has a weird module, on the driver's side, where one of the mounting bolts goes through. No biggy. I'll source a shorter bolt and make it right.
For the price and fitment, I am still a fan.
The scariest part are the hard brake lines that run and rub horrifically on the mounting hardware. Terrifying
Some rubber and plastic and tape and stuff will fix it.
Gonna address that manyana. I'm tired. Master Bathroom remodel, new boss, blah blah blah. I wish I had time to do a proper write up for the folks at Body Armor. Instructions are dated and lazy.
Wrenching makes me happy.

 

My comprehensive covered it including the rental vehicle.

 

Awww man!
That totally sucks!
Sending good vibes towards ya!

oh man, you guys will like this one. I didn't do anything except take it to the dealer this morning, let my experience be a warning to everyone. Finally got the axle nut recall remedy notice in the mail yesterday so I called to schedule an appointment. I get there this morning, guy tells me I haven't used my free services yet (I'm at 12.5k), yep I'm aware, I do all my own maintenance, so just here for the recall. 45 mins goes by and they call my name, service manager tells me there's been an "incident" with my truck, nice....

Porter apparently clipped my truck's front bumper on the chainlink fence in the back and scratches the shit out of my front bumper. Great! They're giving me a new front bumper and painting it, then installing it. They put me in a rental hybrid RAV4 that someone definitely chain-smoked in and they'll give me an update tomorrow on timeline. I told them I need the truck back Friday since I had planned on a trip this Saturday. I'll provide an update once I get my truck back. I get it, mistakes happen, but god damn am I annoyed LOL
