What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I do and I am! They're the stock off-road wheels, 265/75r16 KO2s, with matching spare still mounted on the steel rim. Almost exactly 6000 miles on them. PM me if you're interested.

 

Bed ballast 2x6 frame with 200 lbs of sand for the occasional off road / winter goodness

 

I didn't say I don't have ABS just that it was not in that spot. I have an ACLB TRD OR which has a different braking system than you do I think, mine is an all in one unit without a vacuum booster.

Here is one of the pics from my original post


And here are 2 more.

 

Thanks, that explains it!

 

I got the TRD Grille and added a light bar and switch at the same time. It was a challenge to get the bar to fit the bumper mounts but nothing a little bending and some elbow grease cant help.

I wish we had a better way to search the forum. I thought I had to remove the dash but I just reached behind and poked out the button. The wiring harness come straight off the battery and now Im worried about hitting the button by accident and having a dead battery. Im not super knowledgeable about wiring and how to tap into a line that only has power when the ignition is on that will also supply enough power to run the light bar. Any suggestions?

I did wire it so the light was only on when in use. I think I could have wired it for when the lights are on but the light is bright and I think it would have bothered me.

 

Has any one installed these? Have predator steps on a 2017 Pro but I feel I'll hang the steps the first time in the mountains. Just want some rock sliders to protect the rocker panels!

 

So I basically have the same switch setup as you, that is to say I have horizontal cargo/bed lamp switch and the bed power switch, and a factory alarm/glass brake sensor where your light bar switch is... Is there another spot to pre-cut where you have your sliding glass door switch... And as I type that, I just realized you have a 2017. Crap.... Hummm, I don't think the 2016 have a spot there, or more precisely a factory punch out spot there to put a switch.
I need a spot to mount a light bar switch, and was thinking I'll probably have to get a fill in for the cubby hole above it, even though I don't really want to, b/c that's where my garage door opener goes.

Hummm... Wonder if I can oder the 2017 factory plastic plate and it will have a open spot there by default because of the rear bed window button... Sorry, more or less just typing my thoughts at this point.... Huummm

 

for 50 bucks you can fill the cubby with a 2 or three switch mount from someone from the site. The guy named the thread "I made a thing" and its got a great look to it. you might loose your garage clicker space but I just throw mine in the qi charger cause it doesnt slide around and or have one on the visor with a clip. Prob a better option that will give you extra spots for switches.

 

How did you get your hand up there to pop out the blank spot? I had a flash light looking up there and there was no way I could get my hand up there to pop it out...

Any advice would be appreciated!

 

That whole cubby pops out really easily if you just take a flat head screw driver and run it along the edges. That's what I did when I put mine in

 

I thought about doing that but I saw some screws on the back side and didn't want to break a piece of the dash..

I'll give that a shot.

 

Well, for what it's worth, I took mine out twice with absolutely no problems. You just have to be careful and do it slowly and around the whole edge before you pull too hard

 

Added a mictuning curved LED light bar to my front bumper, great light output wicked easy install and great look. Would have love to have hide it behind the grille but dident like the lack of light coverage

 

Yeah I know, have had it bookmarked for a while now. That's what I'm talking about. Would probably get the 2 spot switch one, but then I'd have a empty hole till I filled it with something down the road (jeezz that sounds nasty)... Anyway, if I could get ahold of a 2017 one that already has a empty spot for the sliding glass window switch, I'm sure I could find a switch to work for a light bar... Maybe not. Have to look to see if I can even order just that part, or if it's some peice of a larger dash part.

 

the area was really thin... i dont have a fat hand and I could barely get it. I have a lamp that was placed at pedals and I could poke the blank out while I layed on my back and looked up

 

Added scoop light

 

You can and I already attached the link but here it is again.

This direct link will go to the overhead consoles you can purchase but just type that part number in there and you will get the lower console. I just ordered the lower one because my 2017 has the three buttons. So now I will have two extra on this console and eventually I will order the overhead console. Right now I have the crawl and two buttons on the overhead console. I technically have two open places for more switches to add.

 

Nice truck! Definitely have put a lot of work into this truck. My tires are 295/70/17 so I definitely get the offset and width of the tires as well without the spacers. Absolutely love it. Had to cut into the front fenders as well but not much. It barely rubbed in the front. Had to turn extremely sharp for it to do so. Just went ahead and took care of it even if it was just a little. Love your look again.

 

Definitely like this idea. Might have to do this myself too. Thank You!

 

Which sliders is this.
