    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.

    What’s your preferred suspension setup?

    Dream suspension is the Dobinsons MRA full kit. I read the Accutune comparison of Kings and Fox and I was pretty set on Fox then did more and more research. Ended up landing on Dobinsons. Good reviews all around and financially the full kit(including spring packs)seemed cheaper. So, that's what...

    Headlights DRL issue

    It's all the time. Anytime I switch to DRL the driver side doesn't turn on. I'm not super worried since I am in the market for new lights.

    Headlights DRL issue

    I have the spyder sequential headlights and when the truck is running the DRL D-side don't turn on. Anyone experience this? See below. The first is when running without switching to DRL. Second is when I do switch to DRL. DRL switch is good. Inspected wiring and didn't see any visible damage.

    Has anyone or does anyone know someone who's done brake pad comparison? Might be time for me to change mine and just want to know if there's difference between OEM and what some companies may call "performance" or "offroad" or "towing/offroad" brake pads. TIA.

    I once took out the entire seat (there's bare metal on the frame and wanted to clean/paint plus wanted to see if there's anything loose) and still didn't help after tightening everything back up. Just like you, it's pushed all the way back and with music loud enough, I don't notice it as much lol.

    What suspension are you running/thinking about running? How do you like it/why?

    I've been running Revtek for 2 years now and they're a bit rough. Saving up for Fox 2.5 with adjusters front and back. Read up on them and i feel they fit what I do with my truck. Also, may be doing the Dobinsons leaf pack with Archive Garage's hangars and crosstube. I tend to go fast on forest...
