What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Prinsu install. Added some Tacoma Twins paracord grab handles also. My back hates me now

 

Help needed. The center pin bolt nut on the leaf pack- what’s the torque spec? Only one I didn’t realize I had. I’ve clamped the pack as much as I can but there is still daylight

 

Thanks. Appreciate it

 

Just put Some Red Meso chrome delete and vent rings in...looks great with the inferno stock dash trim!

 

I looked at the installation instructions on Headstrong’s site and it only says the center pin may need to be cut if it extends further than 1/2”. If it extends up too far it will interfere with installation of the bump stop. My thought is if there is no daylight where the center pin is then the u bolts will close the gap on the rest.

I have a set of these on the way! (The grab handles).
Lookin' good!

 

Thanks for staging 'em appropriately. Hoping on the gen8s they just get rid of that stupid velcro cover flap

 

...got rear ended - fingers crossed just the bumper and not any frame/alignment issues. Will be coordinating w insurance - any advice on what to look in addition to visible damage greatly appreciated

 

Hopefully no frame damage. Looks like they smashed into you pretty good. Hopefully no one seriously injured(saw the air bag deployed on the at-fault vehicle). Good time to get a steel bumper provided there’s no frame damage.

 

Sounds like the parts guy asked the right question to get you what you needed. What part of that is upsetting you?

 

How does the gap look between the cab and the bed? My 2014 was totaled by a similar hit, you could see the bed pushed down and in towards the cap.

 

*cab

 

Yeah, you guys were right.. I guess it wasn't set in all the way. I was thinking it was odd that light escaped from the back at night, but now it sits much more flush and the only light is from the holes in the front.

 

I used a Claybar on my two week old SR5, the added Griots Ceramic 3 in 1 Wax. the SiO2 stuff.
Great shine now. some detail forums say it gets shinier after a few coats.
It was 33 degrees today so it took a bit to get the garage temp to 55 degrees to do the work.
But worth the effort.

 

Well darn I was feeling pretty optimistic but it’s a few millimeters different (passenger side I can run my pointer finger all the way down w 1 mm space and drivers side I can run my pointer finger to the lower 1/4 and it stops

 

Welcome to TW! Any pics?

 

Just FYI the bed has some wiggle room in terms of "square" with the cab regardless of your damage. I moved mine around [like, 0.5" to the drivers side] by loosening the bolts in the bed a bit and sliding it.

 

Ordered these. 16x8. 0 offset. And the Flat Caps.
Should be great. Had to buy something for my Birthday. Today

 

Party time!
