• 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?

Ran some remote air chucks for the driver and passenger side. It was a ton of work. Should have the install video up this weekend.

Last night I wired up my project for DC power to the bed.

10ga wire with inline fuse from my AGM Odyssey and ran to the rear. Kept it above the frame, kept away from exhaust and drivetrain to prevent friction/heat damage.

Panel is from Blue Sea and has a circuit switch, two 12v sockets and a voltmeter.

The panel in this specific configuration is no longer made so I had to order one that had two duel USBs and then swap those out for the voltmeter and extra socket.

In a couple weeks I'll be doing this in the wife's 4runner too. Our plan is to mirror all roof rack accessories/set ups and power availability, and between that and the trailer we ordered be able to just transplant gear quickly between the trucks with nearly identical parts/set-up/arrangement, hook up and go. Little to no fuss about which vehicle to take on a trip.

Hey everyone opened a thread last night but wondering on feedback on the dirt logic/ fabtech rear shock w RR it’s a solid price point. I am running fox 2.0 RR but don’t love them but don’t really want to spend over 300 these dirt logic are like 370 but they are 2.25 RR and they are longer. I found some Tundra forms running them and they think they are as good or better then icon

Long story short i installed my light bar today and able to obtain adjustments on the light bar up and down. I needed clearance above the winch just lil bit
 
Why the e-locker instead of the arb?

I finally decided on the Harrop due to price and less potential failure in the chain of operation. I already have a different type of compressor. After buying a new compressor and mounting bracket I'd have been around 1400 for the ARB vs 1098 for the Harrop. Plus there are no air fittings or couplers etc that can fail. Just wires and a switch with the Harrop. I saw a lot of positive reviews on the E Locker. Only found 2 negative for it. One from a couple of Britts who seem to hate every locker they disassemble and one from a Aussie German expat who doesnt like the fact that it unlocks briefly as the tires roll back while hes trying to crawl his manual. Wasnt enough to dissuade me lol. In a perfect world I'd put a cable activated Ox Locker in there but they need a removable diff cover to work so that's unfortunately not an option
 
Installed total chaos bed stiffeners, in a hotel parking lot. Cut bed rug to fit around them, but need to get new velcro tape to get it looking like it should.

Had the new tires mounted on the new chrome wheels. And I finally got the color matched fender flares installed, that was an amazing easy job. If anyone is in the market the black fender flares and original wheels are up for grabs.
