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.

Different wheels??
Hey guys! Just got a set of Super Star Lodio Drive Six's for my taco, they're classic JDM multipiece wheels that I'm refinishing. I don't have a problem with the normal wheels people run, I love method's and the SCS wheels a lot but I wanted something different. Is anybody else running wheels...- steevo

Tacoma Specialists
Hey guys - I’ve been browsing around trying to find all of the websites/vendors that offer 3rd Gen Tacoma-specific goods, or Tacoma vanity things. Such as - http://mesocustoms.com/ http://thetacogarage.com/ http://hondogarage.com/ Like key fobs, interior mods, stickers, etc.. Just in an effort...- steevo

Suspension lift queries
Bump - Anybody willing to help me settle my internal debate here lol... Really wanting a true 3-4" lift out of my money that will last for my moderate driving/offroading Alldog's 5100 kit with heavy springs (equivalent to OME 888 iirc) and SPC UCA's...- steevo

Suspension lift queries
awesome!!! In your photo you said 5100 based lift, did you do 5100 and OME springs? I’m planning to get the Alldogs kit with their springs that are USA made and hoping to get 3” of lift, around where yours is sitting in the pic- steevo

Suspension lift queries
Obviously a lot of posts about suspension questions, etc... I'm doing research and would like some input from outside sources. I can get a Bilstein 5100 kit (Specifically been looking at Alldog's kit) for $830 without UCA's/$1330 w/ UCA's...- steevo

Thank you a ton for the info!! That is super helpful, I'll look into the 5100/OME setup. That's what I've been seeing a lot of however haven't seen any like in-depth explanation of it and I'm coming from the world of making cars really low so its a big change LOL. And thanks for explaining the...- steevo

Hey guys, been trying to do my research so I didn't have to annoy anyone however I'm seeing stuff that is all over the place regarding lifts. I get that coilover sets from Icon/King/etc... are the way to go, however that is out of my price range and needs. I have been seeing where a lot of...- steevo

Finally bit the bullet!
I'm lucky because I have a work car that I drive 90% of the time, the taco is going to be almost purely a sunday driver with the occasional trash run. My little brother pointed out the other day, it appears that my truck has a factory installed bed-liner type thing. Its definitely not bare-metal...- steevo

Finally bit the bullet!
Hey T3G, posted here a few months ago with some questions about my upcoming purchase and I finally nutted up and did it. Wife's 2019 Rav4 was due for 15k service so I went up to the dealer and dropped it off, decided to wait for it and look around the lot at what they had sitting around. My...- steevo

New to Toyo world, need some advice before purchase!
You're spot on, I just built one on Toyota's website. Shame the "base" model doesn't come with a M/T!! Unfortunately probably gonna have to settle with the A/T SR5 but we'll see!- steevo

New to Toyo world, need some advice before purchase!
Sweet, those are the exact things I wanted to hear. I am planning on doing a lift with better shocks and whatnot. As far as the locker goes, is it worth the extra money to buy one aftermarket or could I survive without the locker? I do have a need for 4WD but it’s for light off-roading and...- steevo
