3rd Gen Quicksand thread

If your puke is the color of quicksand, you should get some help lol

 

Too much humus and crackers...

 

Cool light bar. Simple and not over done. Who made it?

 

Ha-ha that surely would not be me. I actually like the color, I just had to tease my friend. I have long hoped that Toyota would make a tacoma like my wife's 4Runner which is a sort of cross between silver and gold and it hides that desert dust really well. One day I finally saw one and it was the perfect color until I got closer and realized it was a Silver Sky Taco (like mine) covered in a really good coat of southern Utah desert dust.

 

Are you a profesionnal photographer? Looks like it on those picture!

 

Looking good. What did you decide on for a lift?

 

Just 5100/ome 888s for now. Kings and other goodies are in the future

 

Did you leave the stock UCA? Anything in the rear?

 

Nothing in the rear yet. I’ve got an AAL that I’m too lazy to install. Stock UCAs. I don’t see why UCAs are needed, it’s not bad at all

 

I don't know why I haven't posted on here yet lol

Bought mine about 2 weeks ago:


Things I have done to it already (pics in my build thread):
-Bakflip MX4 cover
-black inlay/overlay on tailgate and Tacoma badges
-full front SunTek clear bra
-front window tints
- new cargo bar w/ plano trunk and cooler
-new snatch/recovery rope

Planning to add these this year:
-Dog hammock/seat cover
-Ham mobile radio
-LED lights
-12 volt solution remote start

Next year:
-Skid plates
-Rock sliders
-transmission/transfer case skid plates

 

I like the 2nd pic the best.

 

Import equipment decals. I went with flat black and the sport 4x4 is gloss black (hasn't gone on yet). One side done, hood and other side to go. Definitely a learning curve. Should be doing in warmer weather too. Made some mistakes but coming out pretty good.

 

TIGHT!!!!

 

Got my 2018 TRD Off Road 6MT lifted with 887's and Bilstein's 3 leaf from Headstrong Off Road. I came from a 2013 Jeep Unlimited that was fun, but not the greatest for a daily driver. Im loving the Tacoma, and can't wait to take it on the Alpine Loop this summer in Colorado.

 

how much of a lift did it make? looks great

 

Thanks, it drives sooooo much better than my Jeep. The only thing I will miss is taking the doors off, but I did find 4x Innovations make a tube door for the 3rd Gen I am thinking hard about ordering. Not sure on how much lift I got, but I would say around 3 inches. Driving around town is fine, but I went on an easy trail and was rubbing pretty bad, so I will be getting the CMC soon.

 

Where at? I was up 50 and down 88 yesterday, good amount of snow up there still considering it was mid 60's.

 

Link?
