3rd Gen Magnetic Gray Thread

I'm running a 3 inch level and 18x9 on 275/65/18

 

Here is my one month old. Traded my '11 txpro dcsb for it.

 

Pro Comp Nitro 3" Leveling Kit (3" front, 1" back)
LRG Rims, 20x9, Offset 0, Backspace 5
BFG AT TA/KO2 285/55R20

Not exactly the rims/tires/lift I would have wanted, but they were already installed by the dealer and I can run them for a while. Sticker for the 2016 with the lift was $37,129.00. I traded my 2012 DCSB OR with 57,000 miles on it (stock). I got $12,500 difference (at 1.7%) out the door includes tax, title, lift, tires, rims, everything. I wasn't intending to trade but it seemed like a good deal. Here in Texas we have to pay tax only on the difference, so it made sense to trade.

 

hey squirrel, what setting on your shocks and what size tire. Also, hows the ride.

 

Running Icon stage 4 set from factory. 285 75 16 Duratracs on FN Countersteer wheels. Rides great!

 

Ok. Looks like your profile has your old truck details. Thanks

 

Yeah, sorry bout that. That truck was set at .85 with 265 75 16. It rode quite well also, but not as nice as the Icon!

 

Just picked it up last Thursday, and already have over 900 miles on it!

 

hey, you said stock suspension, right? what size are those puppies?

 

@MauiTacos - any chance you can post some more photos of front, back, other side?

 

I love the bad ass front

 

Only pic I have right now.. but I'll play too...

And I painted that ridiculous chrome grill too

 

Nice! I need to paint my ridiculous chrome grill too. Or just order the SR. Hey, on that note, how does plastidip hold up compared to regular rustoleum or whatever everyone uses? I used the Rustoleum on the grill and wheels for my last two Gen 1 Tacos and it (obviously) chips like crazy. Is the plastidip more durable?

THANKS!

 

I had Plastidip on my last Taco for 5 years and it just started fading in this intense Hawaiian sun like a year ago.

 

What did you do to the front for the black?

 

just picked this bad boy up a couple of days ago! definitely the best color option imo

 

Nice. So decent sun protection. I live in the Pacific Northwest where I deal with cinder and gravel covering the roads during the snowy season (and sticks around way too long afterwards) so am curious how it stands up to potential rock chips. And also high pressure washing.

And did you sand the grill or anything before spraying? Or just lay it on there as is?

Thanks!

 

Love my new "retro" grille from ECG Fabrications!!
