Skip to 7min mark Here a 3rd gen tundra, granted its over GVWR as well as modified

This will help you get an idea of what it takes. Unless you know a mechanic that you personally trust, I have more faith in you changing your oil the first time then them. Why? Because its your car and you care about the outcome. No amount of experience will replace that.

Respect! Ive been there trying to squeeze more potential out everything I've had toys or otherwise. Broken things many times too. Its fun and almost a way of life, Ive retired from that world though. If it makes you smile go for, life's short! Just small caveat is to always consider the...

Life lesson #1: If someone tells you to blindly do something: Definitely do not do it. This is truck not a sport sedan, if you want speed I think you bought the wrong vehicle There is no perfect solution, only trade-offs Have a good day

Tacoma diff gen but similar issue

right. It’s about how overkill you’d want to go. Not even pff wrap protects from rocks that are large enough to dent

Anyone experience it AFTER turning off the AC? No recirculation, just air on at 60. In all other cases it’s fine. But once your run it for a bit and turn ac off every now and then you get a pretty bad smell

Yes I did it myself. It’s fairly easy to do it on a new car

Warranty doesn't matter unless you consider the price. If it cost $250 then everyone should buy it, if it cost 15K no one would buy it. How much does it cost?

I'd add ambient temp to your list up top. Approx +/-5 deg would suffice. Elevation too

Squeal after it shuts off? No that doesnt sound normal. Roll your windows down. While pressing the brake and engage the parking brake and disengage a few times. Double check it is not that sound.

They do feel light and cheap, and rattle from time to time. Tempted to open it up check any screws and fill it with foam.

PPF has a limited life (6-10 years depending on type/usage). Def not worth it for many given the cost and all the negatives. You can repaint an entire panel for a few hundred dollars, and people are not doing that on a regular basis because of rock chips. Touch up paint is cheap, but its your...

No worries! I installed the bracket on backwards the first time. I’m sure many will run into that too. The instructions should be better / mechanically make it impossible to install it on backwards. A part design that is mechanically keyed is the gold standard. And thanks Rocky! I’ll update it...

Looks great! Exactly like mine! I just realized I also had the PDF install instructions for the center / front skid plates. Just attached them to the OP. This will be the ultimate skid plate forum!

Correct, the way mtbtone installed it in the picture is incorrect. You want it in the orientation as shown in the PDF instructions. Unless you will primarily going in reverse.

I recently took it in and I will say I have not been to a dealer in a while since i've maintained my cars myself. What I saw compared to pre covid times is making rethink taking it in for anything else. First, they are so busy everyone is running around. They are bound to forget, skip or check...
