What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Full CBI skid plates installed. Have gas tank skid on order.

 

That was temp. Now have it mounted in front of fairlead.

 

Pulled off a front runner roof rack, revolver x4 tonneau, rci bed rack, and my rtt.

Then installed the front bed rail and total chaos bed stiffeners.

Before:

After:

 

Oil change
Anti sway bar removed
Quicksand skid plate letters.
Cleaned cabin filter
Cleaned motor K&N filter
54k miles.

 

Put it to work doing landscaping this weekend. I finished the mulching and came in to order a 2Lo kit. The reverse gear is way to tall for a truck! You should not have to use 4Lo to back a trailer around the yard to keep from smoking the clutch. Thanks @lapoltba for the harness.

 

Aux relay panel.
Switch panel.
Talons Garage skid plate/cat protection

Not visible is a bunch of wiring and an air compressor. Been done over the last week.

 

Which Billstein’s and coils are you running? How’s the ride without the anti sway bar? TIA! Truck looks awesome BTW!

 

I have the 6112bills on 3\4 knotch with the 5160 rear.
You can tell the sway bar is off. It rides way better/smoother. I will not be putting it back on.
It was super easy to remove

 

Oh fancy! I like your taste in cement grey.

I'm stoked to get mine so I can finally drive out on these tires... although, it gives me a chance to take the new coilovers out, compress them, and adjust the ride height. I didn't have a nice spring compressor, so I found a nearby ATV shop that will let me use their floor mounted one for free.
C4 says ~14 week lead time, plus what ever shipping and clearing customs takes.

 

Currently. Think mine was around 14 weeks.

 

Need to get a winch and light bar.

 

dude maybe get a tune….your analog fuel gauge to digital miles left doesn’t make sense. Unless you drive like you stole it

 

went kayaking in okefenokee wildlife refuge!

 

Finally completed my suspension and tire upgrade this week on my ‘21 DCLB with Bilstein 5100´s all around (set to 1.55" lift in front), with 1.5" Icon AAL and Firestone airbags & Daystar cradles in rear (to keep rake with Leer cap and 1/2" rubber horse stall mat in bed...inflated to 5psi minimum except when towing). Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S 265/70r17 on stock TRD Sport rims. No rubbing. Overall I got 2" of lift over factory front and back with suspension/tire combo.

 

This may need it’s own thread once I’m done but got some really bad pin striping on the fender flares (paint too but that’s another day). Looked all over TW for what others have tried. Got real tired of the “So what, it’s a truck”. I tell myself that all the time but I’m not one to leave it as is.

So I had some Novus 1,2, & 3 and decided to see how much I could minimize it. Actually came out better than my expectations. I could probably spend more time but it’s gunna happen again so tread lightly as they say. I still have 3 more fenders to go lol Spent about 30 minutes on this one.

The pics make it look better than what it is. The longer I look at it the more I want to do another pass but I’m resisting. All the texture is still there and is fine. Pretty happy. So I’m posting in case others want a solution that seems to work fairly well.

 

Gonna ask the dealer for a quote.

 

Yeah I drive like shit.

 

lol all good man, I do too. Skinny pedal go vroom. I was just taken aback at how with just under half a tank it was showing 106miles to empty. Drive your truck how you want, fuck the haters

 

So what it’s a truck? Just joking it looks great after! Also, it’s just a truck you’ve paid good money for and invest even more time and money into it! I always tell myself it’s a truck too but I’m like you, I try to keep it looking as nice as possible! Keep us posted on how the other fenders turn out please.

 

I’ll probably get the KDMax soon. I feel like I’ve got to really step on the gas to get this shit moving. I daily my 2008 Tacoma and it’s fast compared to 3rd Gens.
