What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I have these for my Prius, Corolla, Camry, Avalon

for Tacoma and 4Runner, I have a set shorter but greater approach angle ramps

 

I don't use those ramps for my wife's Elantra. For that, I go on-base (Dover AFB) and utilize the Auto Hobby Shop's stall lifts for $6/hr.

 

Installed my morimotos today white drls to match my meso v5 white drl turn signals

 

Where did you get that mirror arm mount? Thanks

 

Been using Race Ramps for years. Can’t beat them! Pricey, but worth it. Super light weight, but also very strong. And the approach angle makes it easy to drive up onto without fear of jumping off the end, something I’ve done with other ramps.

I have no doubt those ramps will last FOREVER if used within spec limitation. The only minor cosmetic problem I have is that some coating started cracking at the bottom, but that's not structural and doesn't bother me.

 

A little paltry compared to much of the amazing things in this thread, but I added a beaver tail step to the hitch today. I kind of like it!

 

You might want to grab a set (even the el cheapos) to take with you. Takes all of about 15 minutes to install them, so you'd be able to see the difference right away, on your trip.

Wow! The prices of these things have gone through the roof! I think I got mine for about $200. I wanted the two piece because at the time I had a Camaro and it was pretty low to the ground. I could remove part of the ramp and get to the underside of the car behind the front wheels. I don’t think these are needed for a Tacoma though. The ones you linked look like they would work just fine. I actually like how the have a dip for the tires.

 

Good idea, I’ll look around and see if I can score used ones in time. I have so many tolls in the truck that installation would not be a problem.

 

when I lay down my gut flattens out

 

Sensor on order and already received non-OEM bumper cap. If I did it, I probably would have taken your approach. My daughter was pretty upset and was adamant that she wanted to make it right.
Parts were easy to find - just wish she wasn’t back in CO so we could wrench together.

 

These are the tails that came with the truck. I bought the truck used in ’20 and it had a few mods. I was worried about if these were stock or not and a Google image search came back with conflicting pics (some with chrome, some without). Knew they weren’t Pro’s and took a shot at ordering the 2018 stock OEM replacement - a winner.

OEM part#: 81560-04181

 

I love my Morimotos. Lookin good

 

Thank you

 

New Rubber! Toyo AT3s 265/70. Extremely happy how they look and perform so far.

 

Got the harness 95% done. I didn’t remember to order more 2 pin Deutsch connectors to hook up the 360° lighting for the rack. But I’ve terminated the wiring and just need to get those connectors. Then it’s a matter of figuring out the best method to attach the wiring to the rack cleanly; really don’t want to zip tie it.



I measured out points on the garage floor to help lay out the harness. Installed a 6pin female Deutsch which will interface with the wire harness from my Spod running up the windshield. This way, in the off chance I need to remove the rack, I can just disconnect at that point. From there, there is a 2 pin male Deutsch that connects to the DD 42” combo lightbar. Next is 4 points for the side lighting, this is we’re the 2 pin male Deutsch will be installed. Finally I have a 4 pin Deutsch which will reach the rear most driver side of the roof rack and to which I can connect additional lighting once I get a bed rack. Two of those pins will be the same connection as the side lighting and 2 will be for chase lights. This will make it a truly 360° lighting solution. Note, I didn’t install the rear lights included with the CaliRaised rack as I don’t have a need for lighting shining onto my bed.
