What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not sure what you mean? I've been using collinite for years, double coat, don't need any reviews. I know what it do! I was complimenting you on your choice..or giving a thumbs up anyway.

 

Collinite.com, Amazon, autogeek

 

Add another hole in lower cover cold air intake (allowing air to move faster and improve throttle response). Yes, throttle responses better in higher rpm.

 

Fluid film, and holy shit that stuff stinks, and... "faux sliders"def did not want running boards but sliding in and out was killing the leather seats, I don't wheel hard enough to justify sliders cost, so here I am another wanna be with faux sliders!

 

I have the oem step bars...

Dont feel bad that you put on step bars.. I have a big scratch on mine from some dipship backing into me... they saved my door from some major damage and only had a tiny scratch that will buff out. I like them for that reason alone... let alone making it easier to get in and out

 

Red Line air springs for hood and a very over due truck wash

 

Yes!!! Absolutely, I city park in Philly so between those and the beaver tail should help some!

 

don't worry, man. I'm in a 6MT pro and i haven't seen 18 yet. and i haven't added any weight, and i have a tonneau too. i kinda doubt I'll ever see it not to mention 20.

 

It's posted on my build thread.

 

Parked next to a very expensive also murdered out Lexus tonight!

Transformed. 2nd gen Bilstein 5100s all the way around. OME 887s. Front struts were set to .85mm. Dakar leaf springs (complete replacement). 17 inch Ray 10s. 285/70/17 KO2s. No rubbing. I might have to get some UCAs. They had a hard time aligning it and I still don't feel like it's perfect. The ride itself is nice. Stiffer than stock but not by much. Loving it!

 

Washed, Waxed, Tonneau Cover installed.

BakFlip MX4:


Had a little trouble installing the custom brackets to lower the factory rails. BakFlip's adjustment kit brackets (below in silver) weren't bored out properly. Snapped 2 heads off from screws trying to secure the rail onto the bracket. Good thing I have a short box, the extra two clamps and screws came in handy.

 

I bought the colinite of eBay. Best deal I found. Wolfgang paint sealant at autogeeks

 

Crazy how white lettering on tires looks so awesome on a black truck

 

Thanks,

 

My screen display.

My techie friends remain silent and do a double take. After a few more minutes they finally ask about it

 

Is that a retrax cover?

 

very cool

 

For sure, I had the exact problem. So yeah the OEM cross bars were too far apart for my basket and that was a bummer. I went to Walmart and bought a set of 48" cross bars: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Reese-Carry-Power-U-Venture-48-Round-Rooftop-Cross-Bars/36019045 to mount to the oem roof rack in the closed position. Then it was super straightforward, I was able to use the basket clamps included with the basket to mount directly to the new cross bars. I bought the basket from Amazon:

$199 Tyger Heavy Duty Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Rack | L47.25 x W36.6 x H5.9 | Roof Top Luggage Carrier | with Wind Fairing
