Front air dam removal

Yeah, it might be even worse at higher highway speeds, or in more windy conditions. I only was able to determine a 1 mpg loss at 50-60 mph.

 

A mudflap for your mudflap! This guy double-wraps!

 

Saves the front of trailers !

 

Youre not kidding there. The front of my camper has more pock marks than Manuel Noriega.

 

What are your mod plans for when you get the extra one?

 

fight the power

 

Can't believe no one has brought up that deluxe air damn on the new Sequoia.

 

my air dam is flush on one side but hangs a little but on the other side, anyone else have this?

 

Well, yeah but not with my air dam.

 

The Air Dam topic comes up every so often. Here is a video with Mike Sweers the Tacoma Chief Engineer talking about the Air Dam (about one minute in) if anyone is interested and has not seen the video before.

Beautiful Truck!

 

This thread is live again so NOW I can finally ask. Need a cool project sump pump for that hellhole you have on your propriety? I’m tired of getting wet when you guys tie me up down there. It can be part of your dowry.

 

Thank you!!

 

Always heard taking off the air damn would reduce the mpg slightly. Never saw any difference, anyone else see any change?

 

The dealer took mine off when they did the TRD lift kit and tire upgrade. I was going to raise holy hell and trip children until I noticed they left my fog lights intact when state law says they were required to remove them. So all was forgiven and I never mentioned it.

Yeah i did...about 1 mpg, plus more wind noise, and a strange howling at times when it rained when going 45 mph plus. I put it back on. The wind noise in the cab went away, and hasn't come back.

 

Mine seems better with it gone. Didn’t get 21 mpg till I took it off best was 20 with it on. No wind noise either. No issues here.
