What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Seat Jackers from DDI. Overall I feel more supported, really all the electric seat needed was the thigh support. Omw to Kure beach NC on Friday I'll be able to really tell how much better they are.

 

I picked up a 285/70/17 KO2 and SCS wheel for $50. Its rough but holds air and should be sufficient for a spare tire for my 295 KO3s.

 

Installed 6112/5160's last weekend and did 80k service this weekend. First time turning a wrench but buying $400ish in tools was a lot easier to swallow than $1000 in labor for the suspension install.

 

Air down if you’re going out to Fort Fisher

 

I’ll miss your angling escapades

 

Welcome to TW!!

The 5 hole slots has always been my favorite muscle car wheel, but mixed on being on a new(er) truck, especially on a B-red Tacoma like mine, but then I checked and M/T makes it in black... lol

But I can imagine your truck hauling a muscle car to a show with some 5 hole slots on it also, now that would be sweet!!!

 

Good deal it's hard to find just one, and that's a good price.

 

Sorry for my ignorance, what are vent shades? Definitely looking to keep her cool, without tinting the windshield. TIA

 

The things that go at the top of the windows that allow you to crack the windows while keeping precipitation out. I don't have a pic ATM

 

Seen the same show here in Houston the weekend before last as a birthday present for my father in law.

the Tacoma was much easier to park than his 3/4 ton would’ve been

 

That's what I thought. Had them on my Bronco ll, way back in the day. Thanks

 

NP. I want them but am concerned about mucking up my tint with the in channel ones. From searching I see a mixed bag of some say it can affect it, some say it doesn't

 

Tint goes on the inside of the glass. The channel visors are on the outside. They won't touch each other and there is plenty of room in our channels for friends.

The visors themselves don't help with heat, but it is nice to not have to worry about anything getting into the truck when the windows are cracked. Cracking them is an instant -20 degrees of in-cabin temps though.

 

Screw it I'll give 'em a whirl. Thanks

 

Mine are the in track type.

 

I got tint right after I drove the Taco off the lot. Then installed in channel vent shades the following weekend. That was almost 8 years ago. Neither have failed or shown signs of wear.

 

Window tint and smoked in-channel vent visors are the best $250 you can spend on a stock vehicle to change the appearance.

 

Go my speaker towers all setup, still working on the bench in the back. Right now it just feels really high up when sitting.

 

Maybe rotate the speakers so they face the sides (sidewalk)? I think the benchwarmers would appreciate it.

 

Yeah, thats something I am running into. The people in the bench will get blasted, Ive thought about swapping the benches with the towers so the people sit behind the speakers, but the coaches are the ones sitting in the benches and need to direct the dancers.
Angling them out more might give them some more relief, I will have to test in a parking lot so I know the girls can hear the music.

I think I will probably end up just removing the tailgate and have the coaches sit on the back of the truck.
