What did you do TO / WITH your 4th gen Tacoma today?! 👨‍🏭 🧰 📸

More bolt-on fun: Sherpa billet handles and their antenna mount. Did the handles before Roam box addition, and they were helpful to keep me safe while I fiddled with the infernal box mounts.

I found a fix on Reddit but decided to cut the bumper thing instead, not perfect, but it’ll do for now

Took the kid up to a nice spot to make noodles. Really like the trailswing with the table

Added a 95L Roam box back to back with the 83L. Access was a challenge. Using reverse camera and tiny screwdriver helped get the MOLLE nuts centered in the extrusion t-track. I cussed so much, my neighbor checked on me

My Sherpa Rainier just shipped. I was looking at the Roam boxes as well and thought the T bracket mounts looked easy. I'm just curious, why didn't you move the rail so the bracket aligned on the outside the rail for easy access?

Thought about that if I couldn’t access from the hard to reach inside. It’s harder for thieves if it’s harder for us to install. I also have security hardware on order for both boxes’ brackets and an Abus cable lock 6.5’ that seems like it will attach through both boxes. Hoping a couple of deterrents will work. I’m going to try an Abus combo padlock on the box lid clasps - maybe just need one in the middle. The fit is difficult given the recessed clasps. I tried Cedar Ridge post locks, good on gun cases, but it’s the wrong shape to get into the recess. My other padlocks were too wide. I measured and ordered one combo lock yesterday to check out.

@mtbocoee another benefit of the way that I have the rear of the box mounted on the inner side of the extrusion is that the outside of the T-track facing the truck bed is freed up. I could put chase lights or whatever back there. But I know I have to be careful about interference between powered items and antennas when lights are on.

Added a Garmin MINI Cam 3. I had a Garmin Mini Cam 2 on my last truck for many years and the resolution was adequate for my needs. I also like the fact that it is an American product so hopefully the quality will be better that the Chinesium cams. Garmin also makes many of the avionics that were on the aircraft that I flew so I feel comfortable with my choice. It only took a few minutes to install which included the Donger Pro with the selectable use while parked.

Installed Alu Cab Load Bars. It was a pretty easy install, took about 45 mins.

Note: If you want to install a roof top tent you will need the 6 cm feet to clear the shark fin.

Post what you've done with your Tacoma today/recently ??‍

Installed the OEM TRD Pro grill with the Diode Dynamics 20 inch lightbar. I chose the Pro grill instead of the TH grill because it has silver letters that go with my silver truck. I was happy with the looks of the Sport grill but I really wanted a lightbar so I went with the Pro grill. I watched the Rob Motive youtube video which was helpful but unclear on the part that really slowed me down which was releasing the tabs. There are 37 tabs in all and every time I would release one side the other side would click back in. Rob said it took him 3 hours but it took me almost 6 hours in the hot Florida sun (96*). I know that you guys in Arizona have much higher temps but there was so much humidity here that I almost saw my breath. After putting everything back together I went on a short test drive and 2 check engine lights popped up. One was for the grill shutters so I went back and disconnected the battery again and checked all of the connections. The grill shutter connection was a little loose so I apparently did not hear the click the first time around. I fixed that and went on another test drive with no check engine lights.

Sorry, I don't know why it posted double pictures.

Do you have to bring the truck to Toyota to recalibrate your front camera for MTM ?

 

[TacoBirdinNW]

Got a new center cap for my spare and they accidentally sent me 4. Idk, feels like a sign that I might need a truck with OEM wheels to put them on ?

Hey TacoBirdinNW you know you’re going to have to paint those red for your new PRO when you bring it home
