What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Do not cheap out on spark plugs. Be careful when buying online even when they claim it is OEM. Many just buy from dealership to ensure no problems.

Also buy a 2 ft spark-plug socket extension that has *magnetic* and NOT of *friction* holders for the plug.

I appreciate the advice on getting a 2' extension, I did the spark plugs on my GFs car with a pen magnet and a cheapo socket set her mom gave her.

I see there's ones on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/135692939114 for $60 that come in the toyota box,

What are the going rates in your experience?

 

a set of oem plugs are about $110

 

$100 for a full set of guaranteed OEM plugs is decent. Wait for a 20% sale (Labor Day, Black Friday, etc) if you want to save $20. Stick with the dealer for the plugs because all others may provide sub-standard replica-crap.

 

Denso iridium, oem. Rated for 100k but recommended 60k interval.

I followed your ebay link.

WORRTY free, I would say comes with LOTS of free WORRTY.

 

I missed WORRTY-FREE. But anyone can buy 6 used/empty boxes from someone and fill them with knock-offs.

 

I saw that after I shared the link

 

If you use petroleum based tire shine products on your wheels , it will speed up the cracking process … try to find water based products. Sometimes they sell people old tires, I always ask to see the manufacture date before they mount them “new”

 

eBay is the worst one for selling fake Toyota parts, Amazon is next.... If not from the dealer than buy from your local auto parts house like Advanced auto or O'Reilly auto parts, they buy from long term reputable suppliers...

 

Looks good! I was going to get these but got a killer deal on some 285's. Notice any difference on MPG?

 

SL or E rated?

 

Hey there, my current suspension setup in these pictures are stock TRD Offroad suspension plus the airbags in the rear. Front clearance is better than I thought, the only part rubbing driving on road was the plastic corner I had to cut off, it looks like it clears the metal part (body mount) pretty good but that definitely has a lot to do with your wheel offset, my wheel offset is +6mm and I don't think anything more "pokey" would work or clear.

Thank you!

 

Very clean

 

Thank you, as far as MPG, I think it is still too early to tell, however, the 255 FALKEN is around 57lbs and only 2-3 lbs heavier than the 265 KO3 they replaced, as far as power loss, I think it is just slightly sluggish than the 265 but not really noticeable because it wasn't great to begin with lol

 

After the Falkens have been on, I immediately noticed an improvement on ride quality/comfort, Falkens felt more plush and slight more "flexy" side walls in a good way. I suspect it is due to the narrower and taller profile. They are both load range E and have the same PSI so they are comparable, and difference stated above was noticeable. Also they felt more smooth than the KO3, and KO2s in that sense. This is coming from me owning 3+ set of KO2s in varies size (33,35,37) and KO3s in 32 inch.

 

would you mind to share the brand of the bed side molle panels? Thank you!

 

Of course! The brand name is Rough Country.
