What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Replaced the Lasfit LED's in my lowbeams with Philips H9's. The Lasfit LED's look great, and have worked well over the last year, but I'm sure (based on all the reading I've done here) that the H9's will feel much better on my eyes at night, and perform better through inclement weather this winter.

 

Love these things! Have had them in my 2015 AC for years...

 

During my OTT Tune with Gear Lock!

 

Just picked up some new shoes!

 

You are one brave soul! Not sure if I’d be able to grind and weld on a newer truck.

Looks good though!

 

Had the redline elite struts on my 3rd gen nearly 5 years. Wipe the rods down with wd40 every oil change. They pick up a lot of dirt and debris. Never had any trouble with mine. Using the spiker brand on my 2nd gen. Work the same. A must have mod.

 

Did you get center caps?

 

Luckily I did!

 

What does that mean exactly and why is c Load beneficial

 

C load has a little more puncture resistance and you can air down lower for offroad. On the flip side they are heavier and stiffer so they ride worse on the road and give worse gas mileage. It's a trade off.

 

must not have had the external trans cooler everyone whines about

 

Nice! Bronze is the only way to go for our color, in my opinion.

 

They’re 265/70/17. It’s a 2nd Gen running boards. I really like them. Helps when cleaning the roof and some door ding protection. Cheaper than the actual 3rd Gen aluminum version.

 

Thanks for explaining that to me. Yeah not sure why you would want a C tire on a daily driver after hearing your description

 

Compared to LT?

 

I'm confused too...



A light truck C would be more puncture resistant than P rated, pretty sure most LT tires you'll find for tacomas are either C or E rated though.

 

A C load tire is common and comfortable on daily driven truck.

 

Right, I thought he was talking about an E rated tire versus a C. In my experience a C is the way to go for a Taco.

 

Yeah I did this too. I went with the drill and rivet version
