What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

thanks for the info. I’ll cave and pay the crazy shipping cost. Where I did my cab mount chop my front tires still rub the frame just enough to wear through where I sprayed the undercoating. You don’t really feel or hear it, just enough to rub it off. I’m thinking I’ll spray that every now and then and it should protect it. Eventually I’m going to downsize to 285’s and it won’t rub at all, until then though.

 

So I did this today. Anyone know part numbers for the painted bumper end and the tail light?

 

Clean. Probably the same set up I’m going with. Any rubbing with that wheel and tire set up?

 

Taco took me and a buddy out for a 3 day fall kayak-camping trip. He drives a new GMC Sierra and wants to convince his wife to switch to a Taco!

 

NFab 3” predator side steps.

I know the general consensus is that these are more ornamental than anything, but I’ve got a little guy who’s in a super independent stage and upset he can’t get in the truck himself so these fit the bill. I like the looks. I had them sprayed with LineX before I installed. I’m sure the powder coating NFab uses would survive California but they’d be a rusty mess where I live after a week of winter.

 

I installed my

$180 Start-X Remote Starter Kit for 2020-2023 Tacoma Push to Start || 3X Lock to Remote Start || 15 Minute Install || ZERO WIRE SPLICING!

remote start kit and tried out my new

$32 Veepeak OBDCheck BLE Bluetooth OBD II Scanner Auto Diagnostic Scan Tool for iOS & Android, Bluetooth 4.0 Car Check Engine Light Code Reader

Bluetooth OBD2 scanner. I’m gonna love that remote start early morning on the first day of Buck. First time I’ve ever had that on a vehicle.

 

Beautiful photos man

 

Nice scenery and truck. What roof racks do you have?

 

Smart. I had Demello's on the FJ and they rusted to bits. In sunny CA, they'd probably still look great.

 

finally got around to installing my DB cover, I first had buyers remorse but once I seen it in person it’s definitely worth the price tag.

 

I use the Rhino Rack Vortex bar system. For the kayak my main one is the Thule Hull-a port XT

 

I just put on a left tail lamp assembly to replace the one I broke backing into a mailbox. I ordered it on Monday and it was delivered Thursday. $136 at BAM. I think the right side is part 81550-04181.

 

I have the BFG Revo 3's. About the same noise level as the exhaust on my Sport.

 

looks like you lost some blinker fluid on the ground also...might want to pick up another quart or two...

 

Header Rail installed (So I can put a bike rack in there)

 

Mocked up my cheapo-roadshower DIY, super secure and the only thing I needed to buy was $5 In foam from home depot.

 

Nice, I'm back to the drawing board was gonna go this route but they are backordered for months.

 

Swapped out the TRD Pro exhaust with MBRP Turn-down exhaust.

I don't know what people are talking about with drone. Inside car around 45-50mph.. same amount of drone as the trd exhaust, except it has a better sound... to me at least since exhausts are personal preference.

Video makes the TRD Pro exhaust sound louder then it actually is in person. MBRP has the perfect amount of throatiness to it, nice sound when you give it gas and revs get higher and then instantly calms back down when truck up shifts.



Also installed a 32" LED bar behind grille and the raptor lights.

 

Think I posted the wrong link. The ones I bought had bolts. This is the correct one.

 

Wanted it to drop down a little so the cover would clear.
