Instead of getting a whole cat back exhaust system people can just get a Borla or Magna Flow muffler and get the same or better sound, and a lot cheaper !...$150 more or less.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Just fooling around, my friend. I apologize if my comment offended you or something. The plasti-dip comment gave me that idea. Nice vid, let's see what u cooking tomorrow then.
So here’s a valid question; what has all these mods done for gas mileage?! With the lift and the rock bars it looks like it’s just for off roading, but how about a vid for a daily driver Tacoma with gas saving mods?!
The one I have in this video lol! It's the second one I've had, first one was on my 2nd gen tacoma and I love it! It's been great! ua-cam.com/video/k3WXpTDCyt0/v-deo.html
I’m always wondering why tf Toyota didn’t include led lights from factory. You know with the truck being way overpriced and all. Seems like a minor expense for them since they charge so much… Oh and while you are adding those 33s, you best be prepared to drop 3k on 4.88 gearing to go with it. The factory 3.90 gearing is way too weak for those larger tires. Trust me, I have the same setup as this guy and I’m about to upgrade to nitro 4.88. It will finally solve the transmission gear searching issues that plague the 3rd gen Tacomas.
I don't believe the Tacoma is overpriced at all. Yes they are expensive, but they sell and are one of the best mid size trucks! But I do agree that LED's should come standard and I believe the newer models have that. And I know people with 34's with stock gears and they do just fine. I had absolutely NO problems with the stock gears and 33's. The stock gears aren't weak for 33's at all. I did eventually go to 5.29's with my 34's, but it wasn't for the larger tires, it was for the gear searching. The Tacomas has that issues even with stock tires, so the gearing helps with the transmission, not the size of the tires necessarily.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed it’s gear searching because the stock ratio of 3.90 is way too low. At least that what I’ve been reading from the nitro guys. Bare minimum, it should have 4.30, which the manual trans have. My truck never sees 6th gear unless I’m going downhill. I too have 33s and I can feel a huge difference now. There is definitely a strain when I’m driving on the highway. I’ll be upgrading to the 4.88s. soon. Crossing my fingers.
@@Jerlemi2 I know the stock gears aren’t as good for the shifting points. But I never felt a strain with the 33’s is what I was saying. I have a friend with stock gears on 34’s and he doesn’t have any issues with it. But I do like the gears because my truck uses 6th on the highway now! I just haven’t seen a difference with larger tires, seems the same other than on the highway using 6th.
Key word is "need the right materials and tools"...I bought these slider for around $450, no way could I make them for cheaper including buying the right tools just for that project. If you already have a shop for welding and metal work, then I would agree.
I didn't buy anything off of amazon for these parts! But it looks like I didn't add any links, but if you are those parts on our channel, you'll find the videos of the individual installs and link should be in those videos!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Not yet 21 months left on silverado lease and my last . Want to buy either Tacoma or 4 runner. only 2 of us retirees and although I have come to love pickups we both wouldn't mind a downsize. 21 months to go and driver her crazy ha. Keep up the Great Videos!!
Fog lights should be amber color because in foggy/snowy conditions the LED lights will make visibility worse. But i guess if your just mall crawling like most people it doesn't matter.
I recently did the regear, but before that I did not see any performance issues with the setup I had. The regear has helped with highway driving more than anything by actually staying in 6th and not constantly downshifting. Here's a video I made on that! ua-cam.com/video/SJm73yOzc_M/v-deo.html
Thumbs down for dumbass trolls who scour the internet looking to point out everyone who pronounces a word differently than they do. Who gives a shit how he says it? You knew exactly what he meant.
With the new tires that I have, I average about 19 compared to 21 stock, so really not a whole lot. As far as power goes, I don't really notice much of a difference.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed awesome! Thanks! I’m looking for something that doubles as a step and a slider, but most importantly tucks right up against the body frame! I hate steps or sliders that stick down or out too much on the truck.
@@flyingclint589 These don’t stick out too crazy, I like how you can use them as a step even though they don’t have it. Definitely have come in handy for the trails!
Putting HIDs in Halogen housings is typically illegal. And doesn't work well. LEDs won't work as they should either. So yeah if you are gonna upgrade the housing it's a great idea. But the reason you don't think they work well is because you have fog lights on that you probably drive around with that are a different temperature than your headlights. Giving you the feeling that your lights arent working well.
I have the 2020 Tacoma off road and all I’ve done is put tires on it i got it with 29 miles june 18 2020 and currently I’m sitting on 22000 lol my mpg is like 17
Any gear changes planned? If you are free Memorial weekend we are doing a trip to the Daniel Boone National Forest ua-cam.com/video/k-I7KInod6Y/v-deo.html
I have been watching these tacoma videos for some time now, and what blows my mind is not once has anyone mentioned that when lifting or changing the tire size, you change the reading on the speedometer and/or lose fuel mileage when doing so. When someone going to bring this up, or are you just promoting a product to make money off of it?
Unless you are brand new to lifting a vehicle, bigger tires will always affect the mpg and speedo. Even with my current 34's on my Tacoma, I'm around 3-4 mph faster on the speedo than stock, but I just have to remember that and average around 15.5. But the point of lifting and going with bigger tires isn't about mpg lol, you throw that out the window the minute you put bigger tires on! I'm not prompting anything in this video if that's what you are talking about, just mods that are fun and enjoyable to truck enthusiasts and what some functional parts for offroading or in general. I love the setup of my truck and just sharing what I think are great parts to add.
To each their own, I think it's a much better sound than the stock system. That's why everyone can mod their vehicles the way they want. To me it's not a waste..

That's called the "Prius Conversion"
Or Tacoma's that are specifically a street truck not off-road
you forgot 4.88 gears
Been plowing through your videos, my wife and I just got a '19 Pro Voodoo Blue last week and we're already planning our first off-road trip
Oh nice!! I love that color!
Hell yeah, I just recently got a 2018 trd pro in cavalier blue

4.88 regear was my best mod after bigger tires and lift.
Thats great to hear! I'm thinking about doing the re gear soon! Should be a great upgrade!
How much did you pay total for re gear?
Roy Thomas I paid 1,900 plus tax for the parts here in SoCal “premier west gears” Riverside.
Btw you can make your own rock sliders for much cheaper that are just as good you just need the right materials and tools
Key word is "need the right materials and tools"...I bought these slider for around $450, no way could I make them for cheaper including buying the right tools just for that project. If you already have a shop for welding and metal work, then I would agree.
Just put a flow master 44 on there. It is just the right sound.

Yea I did end up moving them out!

No thanks to all of those mods but thanks for the video
Do you have a Tacoma? What have you done to it!?
tanoo cover
Ricky G is that what your supposed to use to cover you canoe? Haha
So a louder exhaust is a must have? Sorry bud but you lost me there. I'm not in high school anymore.
I really don’t wanna lift my Tacoma being that I don’t want it to have problems down the line.
Can you recommend any A/T tires for a stock rim
Alma Ibarra Nitto Terra grapplers are a good overall tire
Falken Wild Peaks.
BFG KO2s. These perform so well off-road and are the best on road A/T tires I’ve had by a large margin. Barely anymore noise, and just as smooth.
Get duratracs. 265/75-16 is the biggest tire you can run if you have the 16” rim model without lift or spacers. And duratracs are a great tire
Nitto Ridgegrapplers 265/75/R16 👍🏼
I just got a exhaust pretty 🔥
with that lift, did you regear the tacoma? if not, do you have performance issues?
I recently did the regear, but before that I did not see any performance issues with the setup I had. The regear has helped with highway driving more than anything by actually staying in 6th and not constantly downshifting. Here's a video I made on that! ua-cam.com/video/SJm73yOzc_M/v-deo.html
If that’s all it has for exhaust note I’ll stay stock. That’s embarrassing, sounds like one of them Honda’s with a Turd Can muffler

How much gas mileage and power did you lose with the lift and tires? The truck looks sweet btw.

No issues with this set up
not yet
Lol Why is everyone hating. What is the brand of the exhaust
This system was the AFE catback system. Most of them sound pretty much the same, but it had a good tone to it!
You have 3 inches in the rear??

Do you have a video on changing the oil? Or can you send me a pic of where exactly the drain plug/screw is?
