What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

That's a damn sweet truck!

 

Looks great!!

 

Thanks to you all!!! It's gonna be a great long lasting rig...that will serve me well!!!

 

What does the diff mod do?

 

I changed the settings so now when I grab my driver side door handle it unlocks all of the doors. I felt that it was barbaric that I actually had to grab the handle to unlock the drivers door, and then push a button to get all the other doors unlocked. ha!ha! great little trick to do

 

How did you manage that!? Great idea, amazing mod!

 

Rear diff breather in stock location is about 18" off the ground, crossing water low enough to bring water over the diff (as shallow as 12-15") and the water will get drawn in (water cools diff temp and the breather is literally sucking air when it starts to contact water). Raising the breather is cheap diff insurance. Front diff and transfer case breathers should already be routed up into the engine bay stock (they were in gen2 anyway, haven't looked at my truck to confirm yet).

 

Please share this trickery with us!

 

Eventually, mine is going to look similar.
What led to you getting the Leer when compared to the ARB or Snug?

 

The only reason is that where I live leer was the only game in town...or I would have checked out others is the only reason.

 

It's in the vehicle settings on the head unit. I this the first night I had the truck. Definitely a nice added convenience

 

Rock! I suppose I can also turn off the auto door locks there. I hate those.

 

I mentioned it on post 3752 but here are the steps.

go to APPS>SETUP>VEHICLE>VEHICLE CUSTOMIZATION>SET ALL DOORS UNLOCK(something like that)

 

Not the greatest pic but JDM astar seems brighter. I suggest Jdm astar brightness and Philips for the color. Finally able to do the LED interior lights too. Now I want to do more but it's starting to add up haha

 

Busy, expensive weekend!

-Opti Coat Pro 5 yr protection put on the whole truck and windshield
-installed access tonneau cover
-installed Primus IQ brake controller
-installed interior LEDs
-received metallic silver vinyl letter inserts
-ordered OEM mudguards

Next thing on the list is to tint the front windows to match the backs. What should I do after that?

 

Here is where I got it from. For whatever reason when I first went through the process it was grayed out, and would not let me click on it. I had to toggle back and forth a few times and then it lit up and let me do it. In that menu you can access the lock options and set it up however you like

 

Thanx a ton man!

 

When you did 5100 at 1.75" lift:
-did you use oem coils?
-what setting on the 5100's - 0.85"?

Thanks

 

How do you like the Cooper ST Maxx so far? Any huge loss in mpg due to their heavy weight? Thanks for the help!

 

DO IT!!
