What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks, but not really, I stole the idea from someone on TW. I just can't find the post to give him credit for it!

 

Recently I replaced the tires, went with Cooper AT3 265/75/16 C Load. Have to say, they performed flawlessly off road (mostly Green, and a little Blue trails). On road, just a bit louder. Still have to figure out proper air pressure for them (maybe chalk test).

Also recently I finally installed my No Drill aluminum front plate bracket from @ACEkraut (still owe him some clean photos)...


Also installed some recovery gear (shovel, Hi-Lift, Treds etc) partly based on @Benson X write up.

Since I was going camping, I built a pressurized water system loosely based on Road Shower (and @daohaus should take some blame) which cost me way too much time and money!

 

Yes but pushing the tire out will cause more rubbing in the wheel well when turning or suspension travel.

That's why 255/85/16 or 255/80/17 is the better size

Bumper took 2-3 hours with mounting the winch and cutting etc. Probably would have taken 1.5-2 hrs if i wasnt doing it in the dark. I was part of the group buy and one of the very last on the list. it took about 7 business days once i got shipping notification up her in canada

 

Like that G1

 

That G1 was and still is unstoppable.

 

My 2004 DC TRD OR is probably my favorite ! Had 2 G2's I liked a lot and with only 4500 miles on the G3 ...like it and starting to love it ! Bought the G1 new and have put 247k worth of fun miles on it ! Have redone the heads, but other than that and the mod's all maintenance !! I think it will live forever!

 

That is crazy cool!
I’m not even going to ask how......because then I will be buying it and messing with it and installing it!
Love it!

 

Thanks,mine just hit the "in shipping" status but no tracking yet. I am just south of you in Montana so hopefully next week sometime

 

I think that's because the company's owner might be a non native English speaker. I remember seeing an interview of them on a video of their production line, and that dude seemed like a non native speaker from his replies.

 

I ordered some LEDs from a guy via Instagram (@fullylitindustries) and couldn’t be happier. Completely plug and play, 8000lumens (about 20-25% brighter) and color is around that clean white with a slight blue tint 6500k... I like that he gives a 1 year warranty and delivered them to me since he coincidently worked a couple miles from me. If any is interested in a simple upgrade in your everyday driving that takes minutes to install hit him up.

 

Nice but maybe move the OVTune up to #1. So worth it. The power increase I noticed was comparative to driving stock without ECT and then turning ECT on for the first time. Plus the shifts are waaaayyyy better! And I just got a new file with upgraded shift points again tonight. Thank you OVTune.

I need to write a a real review but for now Mathew @OVTune has put together a great product. So happy with it and love my truck even more. ...if that was possible.

 

Funny you’re truck looks very Tundra-ish in this pic. Looks tough as hell! Nice truck!

 

I get that part. I can play with the plastics to avoid the rubbing, whereas I can't really avoid the UCA without pushing outward.

 

Your cab mount isn't plastic but ok

Matt

 

Then I do the cab mount. My primary worry was the UCA. That problem is solved now.

 

installed tailgater lights and wired them to the cargo light switch. They light up the back real good for the camera and I can turn them on when a soccer mom is chewing my ass in the neighborhood.

Um...ok. Doing this. Have a link or name/type for the spray you used?

 

Used Rustoleum Bed Liner in a spray can, spray lightly the stuff pools quickly. Good Luck!
