What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah they sent a sticker with them. Guaranteed to add 5hp they said.

 

Took the chrome mirror covers off and put MGM covers on.

Was going to install new exhaust but as usual UPS is running late so it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

 

Only 5? Pshh...what a ripoff.

 

The doors add 10ish I heard...

 

Yea I'm not sure I understand how that happens. They are 1/8" thick steel. Takes a lot of force to bend a piece that short.

Plus, we stack the short door on the long door and wrap them in foam. How the short door got bent but the long didn't is beyond me.

Can you check all the components in the bag of hardware for damage as well? I'd hate for you to get the new door only to find out the locks are damaged too.

 

I installed my catch can. (pics below) What a PITA. I had to buy some adapters because the fittings on the can were 1/2" and the PCV hose is 3/8". The only hose the auto store had for the fittings that was big enough was fuel line so that caused the biggest PITA getting it on. The only other issue I had was finding a spot to mount the can. I wanted to keep in close to the driver side so that limited my options for easy access to unscrew the can. I ended up mounting it to the plastic fan shroud near the battery. Time will tell how well this spot works. I wanted to mount it to metal for obvious reasons. Once I got the lines all connected and feed through I tightened everything up. Looks pretty good IMO, but at some point I think I am going to get better hose and perhaps mount it on the passenger side of the engine bay to the frame. I used the factory hose from the PCV so I could return it all to stock look if ever the need arises.

 

I though the same thing, they seemed to be packaged so well.

I did try all 8 keys in all three of the locks, they worked fine. Took forever but thank you for all of the extras!

 

Put the lift on yesterday!! Loving it but now I think I need new tires

 

just because Philly sucks (which is does) doesn't mean the rest of the state does...

 

Hell yeah! Hopefully mine are getting ready to ship! Glad they include a sticker, I checked their site for stickers but couldn't find any.

Waiting on my MobTown sliders as well!

 

Installed some goodies today and received another package of awesome. Couldn't pass up the great deal on this set of AllPro Offroad Apex Heavy Duty sliders. These things are BEEFY. Still need to drill the bottom rail holes and countersink the Allen heads, but these guys are solid as is.

Also received my box of goodies from Matt at OffGrid Engineering. Matt's level of craftsmanship and attention to detail with his products is uncanny. And this ML-ACR is just sexy. Standby for a full write up!

 

Is that tiny film you used? If so, what %?
Looks good - I'm thinking of doing the same thing.

 

Light bar came today! Just waiting on the brackets.

 

Think you will like them. I just threw my tie downs in the long side still lots of room in there. I think I'm going to get the bed cap and the bed plate from them.

 

At least there's that.


UPS finally delivered my Saturday project.

 

Goodies steadily showing up...Just gotta decide on tires now.

That's pretty bad ass. What company did you get it from?

 

Nice!! 5100s? Where did you get your toolbox? I really like it

 

Yup 5100's...that's not mine. That's my buddies chevy.

 

Damn....oh well. What springs are you going to run with your 5100s? You planning on just leveling it out or lifting it?
