TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

Approved.

 

Pic below on my 5th gen the cut off is awesome but the KC's have the same cutoff with far more throw. These things are tiny and they fit in a nice little pocket on my 5th gen so they are well protected and help a ton with the crappy azz 5th gen headlights while staying DOT! They should fit the SR-M mounts for a tacoma I am pretty sure this is the same light. https://www.rigidindustries.com/sr-m-series-sae-fog-light-pair-902533.html

 

It was a bit of a stinger letting it go honestly.

A completely different animal so far hahaha

Don't tempt me with a good time.

 

I did a little something today......

- swapped out my 1/4” top plates for 1/2” top plates. It raised the front from 2.25” to 2.75”

- swapped my worn rear Baja shocks for the TRD Pro 3rd gen rear shocks I’ve been holding on to.

- added my overload spring that’s been in my shed since I took it out.

- then I found out they had current stock in of ICON Uca’s with the delta joint.......so I said fuck it, slap em on.

Go fast goodies will also be added on 10/7......

 

Hope you stay active on this form, I have thought long and hard about a raptor.

 

I think I’ll do a build thread here too. or atleast check in every now and then on my old thread. @Island Style and @Braunschwaga would miss me if I left

 

@Island Style would but I wouldn’t

 

Very cool! How many miles did you get out of your Baja rears?

I'm intrigued by your cliffhanger at the end there ... do I need to sell a sax or two to get funds so my truck can keep up??

 

Lol!! So my truck has 42k and change on it. The rear shocks still had life. No leaks or change in ride. However, the ones I have don’t have the rubber lined steel line that feeds into the resi. That being said, I didn’t want to gamble through one more winter.....even though I hit everything with fluid film to protect everything. .......see pic.
As far as go fast goodies, I’ll be changing to a 2.7 pulley, adding FPR mod for boost referencing, and uploading my custom ovtune tuned for a 2.7 and my specific mods, and a JFR pulley wrap mod. Next year will bring regearing.

 

Where can I get a gold Toyota sticker like that?

 

eBay. Search “gold Teq decal”

 

Looking GOOD @JuanitoBunito! I've been eyeing a 2.7 as well, even have the snout cutter sitting in my garage. Just need you to talk me into it once you find out how much booooostier it is.

 

So I’m the past, doing a 2.7 meant quite a few thing to do with potential problems. The knowledge has come so far and with all the other guys in the thread already surpassing that size. A 2.7 is no biggy. Supporting mods are needed though, which aren’t a big deal.

 

2.7 is the new 2.85

I'm at 4000+ feet elevation, and people are saying boost referencing and maybe even a fuel pump upgrade aren't necessary up here. And the TRD tune may even still be fine.

 

I have been waiting for some one to put the 3rd gen pro suspension on and see how it is.

 

Ohhh really, that would be nice!

 

Is your truck a 6spd by chance?

 

No, I got rid of the 2013 Baja 6spd as I wanted the higher gear ration of auto and a supercharger.
