  • 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.

    Best LED Headlight Bulbs For Tacoma?

    Im using the Supernova V4 LED bulbs. They were the 2nd brightest of the tested bulbs but these don't require headlight assembly removal due to a flexible heat sink. The brighter bulb had a bigger aluminum heat sink and the headlight has to be removed or pulled out a bit to fit for the low beam.

    Tire pressure

    No that's on the trails. I have been running 30psi on the road with load range E tires. I have about 6k on the Cooper STT Pro without any abnormal wear so far. Will adjust as needed. I try to keep the ride soft.

    Sliders

    @Pelfreybilt are great sliders. I opted for the filler plates to prevent rocks being thrown all over my paint driving down long rocky county roads. Since you live up north, its probably best not to have filler plates with the salted roads.
