What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Where did you find it?

 

I just got mine done today, I was amazed at the results . I can’t believe I waited so long to do it.

 

Very, very nice!

 

Added an RSi Smartcap Sport and Gecko LEDs

 

See this post.

 

I like it, it'll make it even easier to spot you driving around the 'burgh one of these days! Now you just need to get rid of those chrome bumpers!

 

Nice! Did you install a switch for the leds? I was thinking about doing one that turns on when you open the tailgate.

 

i used the switch that shipped with the kit.

Is there a certain length kit you ordered ? I had no idea he shipped it with a switch or I would have already purchased from him

EDIT: Nm , thanks for the link , I quoted you before you included the link

 

Finally got started on the Archive Garage hammer hangers, shackles, u-bolt flip, and Deaver U402 stage 3’s.

The rivets for the factory hangers were no joke, especially since the lower ones attach the spare tire carrier crossmember to the frame. Eventually got them out with cutting the rivet heads down flat to the frame, drilling a 1/4” pilot hole about a quarter of the way through, and then lining up the air hammer into the pilot hole to press them out.

Got the driver side complete and back on the tire and will hopefully finish the passenger side tomorrow.

 

That looks good.

A few questions if you don’t mind...

- Where did you buy them?
- How much lift? About an inch like the Pros?
- Did you add anything else on the rear besides the shocks?

Thanks

I've said this on here but MAN the seat jackers made a much larger difference than I thought they would. I love it every time I get in my truck. Feels great and you're never expecting it. Also, big thanks for the backseat USB vid. Might knock it out tomorrow. Best damn taco youtube channel there is!!

 

Just thought I would share the link since the u-bolts basically get stretched out according to the article. They’re also relatively inexpensive to replace.

 

Glad to know that there is someone in this forum who likes Venom!

 

I'm glad they worked out! Artec will be coming out with a full skid package soon, and if it's anything like the 4runner skid package, it will be bad ass! @mphoppe and I both purchased these LCA skids, but they didn't work with the MORE off road skid package, so we had to send them back. Artec customer support was top notch! Thanks for tagging me in your post. TW members should do that more often! Give credit for ideas/suggestions...

 

SSO slimline plate bumper and accessories...and group 31 battery upgrade.

 

is that a diamondback cover? cause the finish looks smoother/different

 

Sweet! Nice looking rig!
