The SR thread, let's see them!

It's s hybrid prototype from a guy in Montrose.
It's s little high and tight on the tube section.
I'll probably replace with a better fitting one soon.
I kept my factory bumper cover, this is a black plastic ebay one cut for the bumper.

 

I'm surprised too.
So much truck for the money. Mine was 28250.00
Way cheaper than a off road.

 

I got new tires this week after researching a lot of different tires. I ended up getting Firestone Destination LE3 in 245/75r16. They are 111T 700 AB rated tires and they only weigh 32 pounds. The Hanooks that came stock were 109S 500 BB rated tires. Drove today on the highway in a heavy downpour and they did great. The Firestones with the 111T rating have a slightly firmer ride and they are quiet. Fuel economy seems to be the same or slightly better.

I also replaced the dome, map lights and licence plate lights with cheap LED lights off of Amazon. They really light up the inside of the truck and the 6500K light looks a lot better. If you go to replace your dome light make sure you have it switched off. While I was fumbling around with the new bulb I blew the fuze. It was fairly easy to replace the licence plate lights by getting my hand back behind the bumper and twisting the bulb sockets out.

The Gen 2 running boards I got earlier this year off of Craigs List. They had been dealer installed on a new 2012 Tacoma. The guy who bought the truck took them off after a week where they stayed stored in his garage for years. They still had the tags on them. Paid $170.

I also coated my frame and suspension inside and out with CRC SP-400. It seems to be a cosmoline like spray. I bought an extra long red spray can straw to get inside the front frame rails, the various cross members and cavities, as well as the suspension arms. I am liking the SP-400 more than the Fluid Film that I had been using.

 

I've got the same truck..
But worked over hard!
You kept it looking good!

 

2020 V6.

 

Loving those grille stripes!

 

I think that is why I a m drifting more towards it than the TRD Off Road that I started looking at...almost like it is a solid blank slate that I can do what I want to

 

Aww yeah SX!

 

yep...I don't plan on doing heavy off roading, so would spend the extra money on making the truck, or what we are pulling with it more useful to our situation

 

Here is my old 16' SR 2.7 5spd 4x4.

 

Still dialing in the setup but getting closer! Need to upgrade my suspension from the 5100’s.

 

Local dealer has two new SX Tacomas on lot. Seems the SX package is growing in popularity, love mine.

 

I like that black one....

 

Park a tastefully modified SX next to some TRD OR's and a Sport and normal people cant tell the difference

 

Bone stock for now. Hope to upgrade wheels and tires soon and seat covers.

 

Dirty Taco - hoping to get some Clazzio Seats soon for my next upgrade.

 

Got some black alloy wheels on my SR yesterday looks so much better.

 

Here's another silver one. 2021. All stock.......Just traded my 19 Super White yesterday. Hopefully will have her looking better in a couple of weeks.

 

Looks perfect!
