What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

[DriftingOverland]

Yes they are. Tried to get a set before and by 6:07 PST, they were sold out. So I made sure to be on the order page at 5:59 PST, by 6:02 my order was complete. The screenshot is a receipt email at 6:05 PST, mind you im in Hawaii so we're 2 hours behind.

Dang! Well done! Now with your luck on a roll…go buy a lottery ticket[emoji23]

How's the fitment and the install? I haven't put mine on because others had said that there were fitment issues

I bought them but never used them. They are a bit too tight. It prevents the lock from turning fully. I noticed it when the key remote wouldn't lock the doors. It was the covers that were preventing the lock from completely engaging. (When I say lock I mean the mechanism that shows the red/black when locked/unlocked.) But could just be me and others may not have that issue.

I haven't noticed that issue because I haven't even paid attention. I will check this tomorrow and see if the doors are locking when I use the key fob.

Added 6000k LED's throughout cabin. FireHawk High-Beam LEDS, Puddle Lights, Smoked lens sequential turn signals for SV mirrors, finished with red courtesy door Leds. Can't believe the difference!

Blacked-out chrome brackets on my BD ditch light pods with bed liner. Stealth Mode almost complete.

Paid it off!!!!!

I did two things today. Added a 1” Cornfed spacer to the front. It looks like I got more than 1", but I don't think so. I think its the angle and time of day the pic was taken at. It really helped with the rake. I also added black roof rails to replace the silver.

Was it a 1/2" thick spacer or 1" thick? Yours definitely looks like it got more than mine which was a 1/2" spacer to give 1" of lift.

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] If it were that simple… wait… I bet it changed the gear ratios too!

Pulled the trigger on one of those Toyota coolers. I needed one anyways, and my Toyota parts buddy hooked me up. Still probably a little pricey, but the OEM Toyota/Parts nerd in me wanted this cool limited OEM accessory

long overdue tune ups
- body mount relocate / pinch weld cut n smash
- LCA cam tab gussets
- panhard correction kit
- busted SPOD replacement
- swing arm rebuild kit
- custom clamp latch for the swing arm, couldn't stand the old hefty fab style pin any longer

1/2" spacer

It looks like it did, but since I forgot to measure I don't know for sure. I do know it gave about 2 fingers lift which is definitely more accurate than a tape measure.

What wheel/tire combo led you to do the body mount relo vs simple chop?

I went and checked mine and they are operating perfectly. I could see where these might cause a problem. Or maybe I got lucky, but I'm happy to not have blinding chrome on the door handles.

Finally took the time to sound deaden and rolled in two sheets of KILMAT in each door. Already swapped the non-JBL door speakers with Kicker 6x9s up front and 6.5s in the back, what a huge difference with the soundproofing. Once the four channel amp goes in I might not need that OEM JBL sub enclosure swap and install after all.

Ray10 17x8.5 -10 with 285/75 KO2. had a mild chop before, most rubbing was the pinch weld, but occasionally the body mount as well. eventually this rig will have 35s and a re-gear so it's fully ready now.

Installed a dash cam today. Went with the Blackvue DR900X+ and a blendmount. Looks so stealthy that you don't even notice it's there unless you were looking for it.

Programmed a New Key (my 5th Gen only came with one Key), and erased all the keys in the ECU's memory.

Got the new Key Fob to work with wirelessly with the security system.

I ordered a cable and key according to members' recommendations on this forum.

I got Techstream to work in 5 minutes, just like the below post promised. It went very well! Now I can do whatever I want with Techstream. I was pleasantly surprised!

Kick Ass!!!!

I have been toying with the idea of Kenda Klever 35x10.5s. Thinking the skinny tire on stock pro wheels will have fewer issues. Worried about the rear axle needing to be pushed back slightly to avoid rubbing the rear doors. Buddy got them for his tacoma so I’ll be test fitting his on my rig soon.

The guys I wheel with are on 35s with front lockers and the trails are getting harder every trip…. Damn those Rubicon’s!

I could have sold you my smoked sequential turn signals…..
Guess I should list them here!
