What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Maintenance...maintenance...maintenance

 

[MattAK]

Replaced driver door lock actuator. What a PITA.

This was the first thing I did on mine after I bought it. I second the PITA.

Discovered I have a very small oil leak coming from the main drain plug, just a bad gasket I assume.

Also, I received my full OME suspension (881/890 and diff. drop kit) from Toytec as well as new OEM Lower Ball Joints from Camelback. Hoping to install everything next weekend!!!

Switched windshield spray nozzles to 3 stream rav4 nozzles.

Nice, that makes a lot of sense. Right now I'm pretty much limited to taking photos with an S4, so I can understand why you wouldn't want to LOL

Yeah the S4 camera isn't so good once you put the pictures on anything with a larger screen. The good news is this phone is indestructible. I've had mine for 2 years, dropped it multiple times, left it in hot cars all the time, used it in the rain, even dropped it in the ocean once and it just keeps going. Only issue I had with it was when I kicked it into a curb accidentally. The screen broke, but it still worked fine.

Remind me not to lend you my phone.....:tea:

Well today I added a new set of Grabber AT2's and a transmission cooler for my 99 Limited

 

[dunktap]

More S/C prep.... Magnaflow 18 in. muffler installed. No need for a full catback as my pipes look fine.

This weekend I am going to tackle TB/WP + slapping on the S/C, colder plugs, slant thermostat, & brand new radiator.

Got my projector retrofit finished and installed:

Blacked out the corners too, waiting on new LED bulbs for those.

Pics from the front of both headlights? I love the look of the blacked out headlights and the angel orange angel eyes, that's what mine will look like if I ever decide to do a retrofit.

I'll nab one for you tomorrow. It's snug up to the wall in the garage right now.

Switched windshield spray nozzles to 3 stream rav4 nozzles.

Any info on this? Plug and play, any modifications needed? Are the rav4 nozzles a spray or stream? I hate the 3rd gen nozzles lol.

What shroud did you end up going with? Thanks!

 

[0xfded]

What shroud did you end up going with? Thanks!

Apollo 3.0's.

 

[4runner_dreamer]

Apollo 3.0's.

That's what I thought.. I'm thinking about going with those, or the 2.0's.. They both look pretty sharp.

I remember reading about this a while back. Here is something I found. Post #6440 http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/104161-what-did-you-do-your-3rd-gen-today-430.html

Thanks! Answers my questions about the spray vs jet. I still wanna find a spray pattern nozzle instead of the crappy jet pattern nozzles.

I've got 4th gen nozzles in mine, they've got 3 jets instead of the factory 2 on the 3rd gen. I wanted to go with the nozzles that come on the 2nd gen tacomas since they spray a nice fan out across the windshield, but they don't fit for one reason or another. I can't remember why, but I know I looked into it before.

So who wants to be the guinea pig? Saw these linked on an 80-series forum.

Took the rig swimming. (Yes I'm stuck as hell...multiple times) Embracing the embarassment
