What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I think the drums would look cool black or a dark gunmetal. i do like the calipers red though.

 

i do like the rims

 

I was thinking of doing that on my BBP. Now I think I will. Thanks!!

 

Installed RCI IFS Skid today

 

plans are a 3" lift, 285s, a few TRD Pro parts, etc.... i'll keep the progress posted!!!

These are the pictures I took with my Google Pixel XL.... I posted them to facebook.... I just copied the link location and pasted it into the picture button on this thread haha so I dont know

 

No its hitting the actually cab mouny still

 

What paint did you use? I had got Eastwood's caliper paint and it was more of a maroon then bright red.

 

Paint 3/4 of the drums silver and keep the last quarter red... it will look like you have disks in the rear.

 

No, it wouldn't.
Caster is positive numbers to rear of center in wheel well and negative numbers to front of wheel well.
A lower positive number would move your tire/wheel forward and away from contacting the frame/cab mount.

 

I got the paint for the calipers at Auto Zone, don't remember the brand. The drums were painted with a red Rustoleum I got at Lowes.

 

Hey man, he was wrong about his caster and you were right. He needs less positive caster, which will move his tire/wheel more towards the center of the wheel well.
Also, a rake stance will act like less caster with the front spindle "leaning" more forward. If the truck was level, then the front spindle would be straight up and down at caster of zero. Since it is leaning forward with rake, then his zero is with positive numbers. This is important to account for, when leveling the truck or lessening the amount of rake.

 

Has anyone Rhino Lined or Line-X'd their rocker panels on their 3rd Gen yet?

 

When I had my castor set at 2.7 I was nailing my cab mount so I set it at 3.5 and am clear so I don't understand

 

AlSo are u saying if I put coil spacer making my truck more level it will help my problem or worsen it?

 

Got a software update from the dealer regarding Nav/Audio rebooting. RE: T-SB-0103-16.
Hopefully now will have comfortable operation. Update 010189 for premium audio.
All of this during the 6-month complementary checkup.

 

I did purchase a 2016 Limited Grill but painted the original while waiting. Semi-gloss black on wide chrome mesh leaving the horizontal bars and the logo chrome. It seems to retain some brightness while taming the glossy braces. I still have the Limited grill if anyone has an inkling for it. Brand new but with one broken tab due to shipping. $95 plus shipping.

p.s. Also note new license plate holder by Scott Brown (MetrickMetal@hotmail). Very well made!

 

Inserted new startup photo today. Oh yes, a smile every day...

 

New Anzo lighting at SEMA

 

Give me 2 more years and if I don't trade for a new Ranger my whole truck will be Line-X Body Armored!

 

Where, when, how and take my money now
