Idaho 3rd gen Tacomas

Any IDAHOANS here ?! Post your photos of your 3rd gens!
I'm from Boise ...
Where are you from ?

 

Checking in from Star and Merry Christmas!

 

Nice ! Merry Christmas!

 

That's it ?
Nobody else ?

 

There's a few more that I've seen maybe just not real active on the forum. You'd think there'd be more, I see a quite a bit of 3rd gens rolling around here.

 

Yeah for sure .
I see at least 5-6 a day, but most of them look stock

 

Yup come to think about it I don't think I've seen any that aren't stock on the road.

 

twin falls

 

Great pic! Obviously not recent.

 

yeah not to recent heres one from November. im pretty stock putting together a lift just takes money. what lift did you guys go with?

 

Can't get the link to work but I got the Bilstein 5100 kit with ucas, aal and diff drop from Headstrong (great people). It's not totally hard core but it works for me and fit my budget.

 

Welcome !
I just put a leveling kit and actually I like it ! It drives better than stock.I don't really go off roading much so it will be ok.
1" rough country spacer in the front which it raised the front about 2". It made the rear about 3/4" lower than the front so I put a 1/2" leaf block in the rear and now is pretty level.
The tires are almost 33"
So the whole truck shits about 3" higher than stock.
If you go this route, let me know and I'll explain farther.
You have to replace the A.D.D bearing bushing or you'll get a bad vibration . Most tire shops don't know this yet because the truck is new (16+)
Edit : I want to clarify, the lift only gave me about 2" but the truck sits about 3" higher because the tires are bigger
(obviously)

 

nice i have 5100 s in the garage. i going with ome 887 spring and ome dakar leaf pack. should be around 3". how do you like you 5100s?

 

I like 'em. I went with the 887's as well. I got about 3" on the lift.

 

Born in Pocatello, grew up in Idaho Falls. Joined the military and was stationed in Mountain Home... now I'm hiding out in Germany before I can return to the homeland. Still trying to talk the wife into retiring up by Coeur d'alene. But here is a gratuitous shot of the truck:


This was right after I blacked out the rims and the grill. Loving that look

 

How do you like it up there? I have been trying to talk the wife into retiring up in that area, or perhaps just across the border in Washington.

 

Cool man !
I was born in Spain so not too far from Germany and I moved to the states when I was 20 .
Be safe and thank you !

 

I haven't made it out to Spain yet. We are heading to the Netherlands over new years to check out Amsterdam, but Spain is on the list!

 

Very nice !
Try to stop by the Basque Country
Especially San Sebastián , best food in the world . IMO
