It's the wrong part, made for older engines. The D1 is for the older V6 engines. It's the wrong part and does not meet the spec. It's not a cross compatible filter. Sometimes filters have different thread lengths, different diameter mating surfaces where the gasket and the flange meet, so you...

That mystery connector isn't anything. It's the dust cap cover for your powered connector. It should remain attached to the wiring harness running down.

So on my 2024 TRD OR, the plug is there tucked up behind the rear quarter panel. Pulled off the connector, set truck to ACC mode (lights on, but not running). It's a 4 plug connector. It has 12v power on two of the pins so the wiring is already there instead of running a cable to the back of the...

It's not the best option, but a $35 sceptre 20L tank from Canadian Tire mounted to the bed rails is hard to beat if you truly need the range. Don't think they sell them in the USA, but they are a damn fine gas can if you can find them. That's another 90 miles of range per can. Simple, easy, and...

Most of the current 4g tacoma colors are pure ass, but that red is really nice.

Speaker install or not, it's a good video on how-to door panel removal. Might as well throw some noise reducing insulation on those panels when you got the plastic off to help reduce road noise further.

Agree. And the first step when a vehicle goes into limp mode during normal operation (e.g. mapped actual dirt road open to all traffic), should be to report this as a vehicle safety defect to NHTSA. This may be considered a "loss of motive power" which is very serious. When you have the engine...

I paid $1217 for mine. Shipping to Missouri was $322. I had to pick it up at a terminal. The boxes are just over 6' long. When you do a terminal pickup, it's kind of mickey mouse. Have plenty of straps to secure your load, and be a good spotter for the forklift guy. He or she can raise them up...

How did you arrive at the length of the antenna? You generally want a multiple of the frequency. Like 1/2, 1/4, 5/8etc. To calculate resonant frequency, you take 468/f and that gives you the frequency that a wire length of x is resonant on. So a 7' antenna would resonate at 66.5Mhz, which is...

$15, 10 minutes and no guessing is the way to do it. Video on how to do if you're unsure: First time on the scales? How to use cat scales to accurately weigh your tow rig and trailer

Not only master technicians, but also code talkers, night stalkers, and five finger death punch masters. They can discern the shoe size, direction, and weight of any rodent larger than a flea. Incredible talent.

Easy to do. I took as many precautions as I could but these things are soft as clarified butter. Scratched it with a delicate microfiber wipe. Then foolishly got some sort of incompatible interior cleaner on it and it fogged slightly. Here's what I used: Amazon.com: Meguiar's PlastX Clear...

Clean it off, hit it with a very judicious, almost homepathic, spray of "rust reformer" then top it with CRC corrosion protector, woolwax, surface shield blaster or fluid film.

Depending on where you go, it might also be illegal. Some states require trailer brakes over 1000lbs, some 2000lbs. Cheap insurance to get a controller, especially if you get some sway. When the trailer is sideways, you'll kick yourself for not springing a few hundred for even a wireless controller.

Great writeup. Those Aliexpress links were a real gem. Thank you. Picked up the one with the prewired pigtail on it, and used a Wago butt splice since I don't have a crimper. I've use the Wagos on my motorcycle before and it's held up for 20,000 miles of pretty rugged riding, so I think a low...

I did the Westcott sliders, but I don't really think it's a world of difference. End of the day, it's a overweight hunk of welded crap bolted to the truck.

There's little advantage to buying the warranty early. If you end up getting rid of the truck via collision or sale, you won't recoup any of your warranty money. Sure, the warranty will increase in price at the time, but you're also buying it with 3 year in the future money not today's money...

These are so fake. They didn't bother to include a $980/month bank note.

This forum is def the most sleezy feeling of any forums I've used in the past 20 years. It feels very "paid mouthpiece." That's why I mostly use Tacoma World. Yeah, lots of a-holes, but it feels Iess like an infomercial.

I spent the last six months reading about the evolution of this. What a freak show with the stupid decisions Toyota makes. Like some of you, I was told with absolute certainty that yes, it may not have a trailer controller, but you can add one so easy to the truck because everything's here...
