3rd Gen Accessory Thread

those vents do absolutely nothing fyi, this has been covered in detail many times

 

I've seen the threads, IMO they were put there for a reason, I'd rather keep them functional. There are active dampers behind the grill that shut at high speeds, so I assume these openings are to allow the right amount of air to still hit the radiator when that happens.

 

Added a few "accessories" to the 2023 1794 edition. Just a lift, tires and roofnest awning and I think I'm done. Just turned 2k miles.

 

OEM Toyota parts...

I'm trying to decide between 35 inch and 37 inch tires. Basically going to have the exact setup as you however I'm using a ready lift kit. Did you re gear with the 37's or are you running it stock?

 

Do you like your warranty?

 

Valid question. Regearing will void it I'm assuming? Will the transmission work well enough without regearing, other than loss of power?

 

I don't have a lift nor do I have experience with regearing but peep this for the lols, it's gonna vary by dealership - https://www.tundras.com/threads/dealer-won’t-cover-leaking-cv-boot-on-trd-lift.129708/

 

Well shit lol. I won't be doing any kind of off roading and only drive in the city. Hopefully I won't have any issues!

 

Anyone know if the removable JBL front speaker advertised with 2024 will be available for 3rd Gen Tundra? Did a search and didn’t find anything. This pix is from 2024 Toyota Tacoma advertising

 

speakers in this location just bounce the bass right off the window and sound like shit

 

I got my rectangular house speaker in my truck.

 

Seams like good use of an otherwise unused cubby hole that’s out of site on top of dash, at least on my truck. Also, seems like pretty awesome solution to having Bluetooth speaker for camping.

 

In case anyone missed it the Cup Grip for the 1794/Platinum trims has been released. Ordered my set yesterday.

 

You guy’s cup of joe must be massive in the morning. I have the 20oz cup and never felt the need for the cup holder grip thing

LOL mount it in the rear and save $1k

 

Sold my last 3rd gen about a year ago and finally decided to buy another. Excited to get the TRD lift installed and these Nomad Convoy’s next week. GFC topper install isn’t until December (bummer).

Anyone have any tips, pointers, likes, or dislikes with TRD lift or Nomad wheels?

 

Man, those steelies look good!

Can’t go wrong with a TRD lift. I’m more of a believer of paying a little more for Kings/fox but that fits my use of the truck.

 

Totally get that man. Honestly, the warranty aspect and some of the small stuff like extended brake lines talked me into it. I don’t go too heavy on it - just need it for hunting and camping here in Montana with some occasional rough trails. Can’t wait to pick it up early next week.

 

Im with you. I built my own kit to include extended lines and bump stops. The TRD is a one stop shop

 

I added a sapphire screen protector. It's much clearer than the factory provided film.

 

I also had a custom leather key fob made.

 

I also added the Go Rhino E1 Electric Running Boards Installed on my 2023 Toyota 1794 4x4.

They tuck up against the body when the door closes and they provide lightning at night.

Did you have to peel off any film before applying new protector ?

 

There is a film from the factory. I peeled mine off before applying new screen protector.

 

here is an installed alternative the ICS fab dash mount made by https://www.bulletpointmountingsolu...-toyota-tundra-dash-mount-phone-device-holder

 

Very nice, I need to mount my FTM-200DR and this looks perfect. Can you share what ball adapter you used to connect into the back of the Kenwood Mobile? How hard was it to route the remote head RJ45 cable?

73 de W2DHS.

 

I used the Kenwood controller head kit, it came with a bracket for the control head, I drilled a hole and then installed a standard b size ramball. As far as the control head cable nah dude it was EASY peasy. All I did was remove the driver side floor, the plastic pop out moldings , pull the carpet back a bit, but that’s what I did because I mounted my radio body under the driver side seat. I removed the dash cubby . And ran a slim hard line down like a fishe until it touched the bottom . Taped it and ran the cable up, drilled a hole into the cubby and presto. It was super easy just be very easy with the plastic tabs when snapping them back in, they bend easy. 73! KF7EGL
