Nice! The two don’t even compare. Greenlanes are super robust, you’ll love them

@@tacosauce4x4 yea, I agree! I was impressed with their quality of the front bumper I ordered from them as well.👌🏻

Wish I was getting commission lol. Yeah it’s a rock solid platform. One year in and zero complaints here. Simple system that does what I need

It’s great! No issues whatsoever. That included running a roof top tent, 270 awning, and two adults sleeping on top of it throughout the summer. Everything is still functioning as it should

To each their own

I checked and it definitely doesn’t. Consult your wiring diagram for your specific truck model, tail lights aren’t all wired the same.

​​@@tacosauce4x4Not when you turn left, but it should blink when you turn right, unless you use a logic box that cancels the blinking or you use the CHMSL line from under the truck. That is why I'm waiting the logic box to arrive now.

I'm a new owner of trucks. I'm not aware of trucks on which the brake lights are wired differently from turning lights.

Well it is on the 3rd gen Tacoma. I just triple checked and they definitely don’t trigger each other and are all working independently. Neither right nor left trigger the 3rd brake light.

Yeah it’s a rock solid choice. Looks great too. I was t boned in the back drivers side corner of it by some old lady who was texting and driving. Opened the front end of her Cadillac up like a can of sardines. My bumper just needed a little sand, paint, and you couldn’t even tell. 10/10 for C4

@@tacosauce4x4 Ive been wondering what would happen if someone run up underneath me. If it’s not an SUV or truck, they’re gonna have a 35 maxxis mt in their lap… definitely rock solid.

Yeah she was only going about 20mph and so it pushed my truck sideways without frame damage and I think my rims/tires (33 general grabber a/t’s) ripped her front lower valance off while the bumper took off part of the hood and smoked her headlight. Pretty wild, but the bumper definitely protected the suspension components and axle

Absolutely! I like Nomad’s wood fired the best in town. But my favorite in the area has to be DeLorenzo’s in Robbinsville. So good

@@tacosauce4x4 Yeah we've been to Nomads's but still the best we ever had is Conte's. Only thing we miss about moving out of N.J. Conte's Pizza, White House Subs in A.C. and White Castle.

@@nctacomaoutdoor I surf AC all the time and White House was always a pit stop on the way back

I agree. Chrome on a small truck es no bueno

I probably should have but didn’t. Seeing as neither made a difference I can say there would have been no point in retrospect. I have had my eye on the Anderson engineering manifold spacer. Supposedly that helps to move the torque band lower, which is where these trucks need it.

Here you go: amzn.to/3T98ypS

@@tacosauce4x4 thank you!

No problem

Hmm, yeah I would say it’s possible. The leads for the DRL are separate from the main bundle of wires, but do appear to use the wire bundles ground point. You would need a pretty specific switch for that but I’m sure you could make it happen. However that’s something I would definitely mock up in a setup outside of the vehicle first just to make sure it’s not going to accidentally cause some sort of electrical fire.

@@tacosauce4x4 Found this on their website: Q: How does it switch from the White DRL to the amber DRL? A: This TrailBlazer Series comes with three light modes: the main light source, yellow DRL (Daytime Running Light), and white DRL. As a result, this 6.5-inch driving light has four wires at its end - one negative and three positive. After using the included conversion cable, you will find two extended wires, one yellow and one white. The yellow wire is for controlling the yellow DRL, and you can connect it to the positive terminal of the turn signal as a position light. The white wire is for controlling the white DRL, and you can connect it to the positive terminal of the daytime running light.

Yeah I would be careful to make sure that you don’t accidentally trigger both drls at the same time. You never know with budget lights lol

Thank you! They’re great. Zero signs of wear on them so far

Hey thank you! It’s CBI. It’s fine but not as stout as I had hoped. My rear bumper is C4 and I regret not going with them for the front too

lol excellent reference

I think the torque spec exists just so that some caveman with an impact wrench doesn’t over do it and strip the threads off the reservoir

Thank you! I’m sure that you could. If you want to lock yourself in it, you’d have to go with some sort of replacement latches though. I’ve tried with the stock ones and there doesn’t appear to be any way to do so.

Nice! I would do the same but unfortunately the rim on my full size spare is busted and discontinued. Some old lady texting and driving drilled it last year

Every 5k miles. I know that technically you can go longer with modern synthetics, but I want to take this thing to 500k miles lol

@@tacosauce4x4 Quite a bit different than changing oil and filter in my 2008 SR5. I guess the Toyota engineers determined that this set up would be better than the 2nd gen. Thanks for the video.

It’s probably not lol. I’ve had to use a heat gun to get the filter cap off twice now. I’m about to switch it to aluminum and see if that helps

Yeah just stick with OE filters for engine longevity above all else. Unfortunately the only real way to get more power out of this engine is either a tune or supercharger/turbocharger

He was really excited about it. Super nice guy, definitely first week on the job lol

If you know, you know.

We don't talk about that 🤫

It should. You just select the year, model, and trim and it should come with the correct wiring, or an adapter if needed.

It was rusted really bad after about two years. I went with a stainless steel one from borla after and it’s been great. Zero signs of corrosion. ua-cam.com/video/Qw-03GDTE78/v-deo.htmlsi=LVROf-zh-5emImwH

I haven’t kept up with the drama. What did he do?

@@tacosauce4x4 I purchased their tuning package with the dongle for over $700. Recently, I wanted to flash back to a lower octane tune to save money, but I was informed by Matt that I would need to pay an additional $75 for access to the tune I already bought. He mentioned there was a two-year window for free "upgrades," but I missed this announcement that was made somewhere on the internet. My intention was to save money by reflashing, not spend more. It would have been helpful if Matt had sent an email during the upgrade window to inform customers. I feel that Matt is dishonest, and I regret spending any money with him. I will not be paying for any upgrade to regain access to what I already purchased.

No way, that’s such bogus. Wow I had no idea there was an upgrade window. Guess I missed it too

@@tacosauce4x4 Ya I had no reason to keep up to date on tune status. Then I thought I might try and save some money only to find out all this...

Good call!

Hey thank you! So you don’t need any sort of tape. The canopy comes with a rubber seal attached to the bottom edge that sits on the bed rails. If you do want it to be water tight(ish) I would say grab some caulking for the corners of the bed closest to the cab. The Tacoma bed has some small gaps there that can let water through.

@@tacosauce4x4 Thank you for the quick feedback.

For sure

Olives probably

No problem!

It’s a cycle that every young wrench head goes through lol

Glad it was helpful!

Still working great. One of the DRLs is out and I couldn’t find a fix for it. Other than that the light output is still awesome

@@tacosauce4x4- Out! Did CoLight replace it? That’s lame

Check the dipstick before doing that. 6.2 is maximum fill. When you drain the oil it doesn’t totally empty it, so there will be residual oil in there.

@@tacosauce4x4 I did, and it’s right at the top not past the top dot

Yeah I’m always upfront with the mods and reviews that I do. There’s a lot of people who will make baseless claims when it comes to performance improvements, and that does nothing but put money in the pockets of manufacturers. Never understood it.

The dimensions of the mounting rails. They’re too wide to mount it straight on top. I had asked the distributor who I bought it from about a frontrunner rack specifically, he looked into it, and said no dice. I’m sure you could use some angled footings, but I wouldn’t risk a heavy load on that since now you’re putting torque on the mounting channels

Thanks!

Only about two feet of it was needed. Remember, you want to work it almost like a q-tip. The goal is to pull stuff out, not push it down. If you go too far you can definitely end up pushing the rubber grommet off of the bottom so I wouldn’t use more than half of the length of the pipe cleaner.

Damn I wish you mentioned that in the video, I stuck the whole entire thing down and def met a bit of resistance on the way back up. Any way I can find the bottom end to see if I damaged anything? Thanks

So far no

Negative ghost rider

Probably should have tbh

Nope. Just louder

Still solid! One had some condensation starting in it so I opened it up and siliconed the seal and it’s been fine since. Obviously I stick by what I said in this video. They’re no Baja LP9s but definitely hold their own. They remind of my KC Daylighter floods from back in the day

@@tacosauce4x4awesome. Thanks for being real about them. 👍 They seem like a good light when looking at cost for what I would use them for.

Just got mine installed yesterday and I have to say I’m impressed with them. Gotta agree for an “entry level “ light , there plenty for my needs!

Nope. It’s about 2-3mph off when you go up to a 33in. You can have a shop recalibrate it though if you really want.

Thanks you and thank you!

Much appreciated! 1450. Figured better to have too much than not enough and it was perfect for the tent plus awning setup.

Yeah I use an off brand spray versions of fluid film every year and it does the job for the frame

Yeah so when I made this clip I didn’t expect it to really be that popular. Seems like it’s a pretty prevalent problem though. If you truck still smells you might want to steam clean your carpets and stuff. Last thing you want is mold or mildew in the headliner

Yeah I had no idea about cleaning sunroof drains. I had taken my truck to the dealer twice before they figured it out. Which was only after they told me my hood lights were the issue and that my third brake light was probably also the cause. They were wrong.

Yeah I was in the same boat. Got real sick of the MBRPs droning. Sounded mean at idle but it was an ear sore actually driving around
