What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Picked up some local ipas here today

 

I was nervous but got it done.

 

Just installed the OEM tailgate lock servo. No pics. Took about two hours with no hurry. Easy enough. Found the Toyota install PDF much easier to follow than YouTube video. Nice.

 

Costco sells Toyota parts?

 

Another descendant of Murphy.

 

Just replaced the anemic OEM fog lights with Baja Designs Squadron SAE’s. HUGE difference in the garage. Can’t wait to try them at night.

 

Damn diet!

 

Any update on this?
I msged ktjo about what the ice blue looks like and they said they’ll send over some pics this weekend, but nothing yet.

 

Installed a 3/2 lift. Just a simple spacer lift. Came with the tapered blocks. Turns out they send me 2 kits. So i'll try and sell those. Should be able to order wheels and tires tuesday.

 

Welcome to TW Bud!

 

A mere 2 weeks later and I finally got around to the next project.

The tailgate is all black so it needed some color, too. I'd still like to do the TRD badge in charcoal.



Before and after:





It'll probably be another 2 weeks before I get to the next project, too.

 

No, I used the Costco auto-program to buy the Tacoma so they sent me a 50% off coupon for parts, service, or accessories. Max discount is $200. The TRD skid plate is $400 at the dealership so I got it for $200.

 

I just installed them, along with a JLT 3.0 oil separator. I won’t be able to actually get a pic of them in action until this evening when it gets dark.

 

I washed her for the first time, can't wait to put my new brushed copper Ray10's on! These TRD pro wheels/tires will be for sale soon if anyone is looking for a set, send me a pm.

 

OVT 2.0 installed by @Shellshock...huge improvement to the shifting/drivability of the truck.

 

1 week old, love at first site.

So far I have done the following:

Retrax tonneau cover
Yakima overhaul HD ladder rack
Ko2s (265/65R17) w TRD rims.

Looking at

Fender flares
Lift kit (doen the road)
LED lighting inside the bed

 

So someone had the software and then installed it for you? Would love to have it installed on my truck.

 

Tested out the new

$176 TCL 32S325 32" 720p Roku Smart LED TV (2019)

TCL Roku WiFi football tv. Not bad for $130



BTW, I'm using a bluetooth transmitter like

Bluetooth Receiver Transmitter, KINDRM 4in1 Mini USB Bluetooth 5.0 Audio Transmitter & Wireless Bluetooth 3.5mm Aux Adapter Receiver for Car/Home Stereo Headphones Speakers TV PC Projector CD (Black)

this one for private listening (with bluetooth headphones), or for blasting sound through a portable (Braven) speaker.

The mount I'm using is

$32 Mount-It! TV Wall Mount Bracket | Quick Release | Full Motion Swing Out Tilt Swivel | Articulating Arm for 13-42" Flat Screens and Monitors | VESA 75 to 200 | 44 Pound Capacity | Anti-Theft Locking

here.

 

LED lighting in the bed is nice.. Mine came with it. I would definitely add it
