• Welcome to Tacoma3G.com, a free resource for 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma owners!

    This website is the passion-project of a USMC veteran/mechanic, @Tyler. I created Tacoma3G.com to share my knowledge of this subject with others and to provide like-minded folks with a comfortable space to ask questions and create 'build threads' within our Tacoma Forums. Now, if the format of this website is confusing to navigate for you, or if you're interested in my full mission and T3G's history, check out the Help and About pages.

What have you done to, or with, your Tacoma today?

Fridge mounted and powered up!

Wired up a pushbuttonnfor my garage door opener
Oh! That's interesting. Was it a kit or did you just re-purpose a standard opener?

I just opened up a standard opener and soldered two wires to the back of the button on the board and connected to the wires that came with the button
 
Slapped some icons on the rear. Had Bilsteins on order but the 5160 have been backordered for over a month. Got tire of waiting, 6112s in front, extended icons in rear ?

Ah, it won't start because your negative is not connected to the battery. Bwahahaha.

But seriously, where did you get the plate that the terminal blocks are mounted on? And can you still open the stock fuse box with it on? If I keep accessorizing, and I see no reason not to, I'll need to do something similar. Nice install.
 
Called ECGS, ordered 5.29s and set a date to get em installed. I’ve been putting this off for way too long.
So I didn’t actually do anything to the truck, but damn I’m excited.
Stoked for you brotha! Got a front diff out of a wrecked 17 T4R. Called em today to ask if the front carrier was the same for out Tacos so I use it as a core. Pretty much NO
 
Picked up my new Snugtop Rebel canopy today...and once I got it home I couldn't wait to do THIS!

Camping in the driveway tonight? You bet your ass I am!!! Woot!
Yours is cavalry blue right? I’ll be sure to follow, I love the color without a camp shell, but haven’t seen many with it. Curious how it looks in different lights - the color changes so much - and if it feels too blue haha

Edit: is it different than the pro Calvary blue?

Blazing blue, they don't make it anymore.

I’m curious just how low the 5.29s are going to be with 33s and MT.
I wasn’t planning to bump up to 315s until these 295s wear out.

Ah that sucks about the carrier.

no im not able to open the fuse box below the plate, but i never need to access that area so not much of an inconvenience at all. @Mr. Nobody actually hooked me up with the plate and it wasnt designed to hold everything i put on it but i altered it to make it work!

and dont worry i reconnected the neg haha

As of yesterday I have the same setup, Battle Born told me they wouldn't have 5160s until the end of July.

Yeah that was my problem too, I don’t mind. Still seems to be a good setup. The ride is so much better than before
