What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Are there any exposed wires when done installing?

 

That matte black is sick

 

Installed my tonneau cover and bed mat. Thanks to @Kingair84 for the tip on using some silicone to help make the truxedo water tight.

Ride quality is better on-road, haven't had a chance to test off-road yet. Nosedive that was obvious on the off-road suspension is thankfully gone. When going over larger bumps like speed bumps it doesn't bottom out as easily, the Dakars are harsh before I put the camper shell on. Much better ride now with the weight, but still plan on installing wheeler super bumps to absorb the shock that comes when going over potholes and such. Didn't measure before and after but guessing 2inches all around while retaining an inch rake towards the rear. Did not run the diff drop, have no vibes, and this is even before alignment. Hope that answered some of your questions.

 

Looks killer, pulled the trigger on a set myself last month on the 22nd. Can't wait for it to arrive.

 

Made the skewp functional with a Dremel. We had a bit of slush fall from the sky. With it stock, there was a bunch of big splats as the slush came around the corners. Same with rain, but to a lesser extent. With the skewp opened up, the rain and air seem to be curving around it a lot better. We'll see what the snow does.

I also grabbed an couple bags of tube sand. Lashed it to the rear D-rings. The truck feels a lot more planted in the corners and has less slip in the wet. Looking forward to snow.

 

Went wheeling with the wife and a couple great friends! Beautiful day here in Bridgeport Texas.

 

A ok....thanks fo the info/input !

 

What would the benefit be? The negatives are more money and bend.

 

You might want to check their tech certifications. ; )

 

In Oregon, fog/aux lights are treated as high beams. Even stock fogs are illegal to have with oncoming traffic. They would have to be turned off with each passing car.

 

Took a bit over 2 months for mine. Long lead time, but I'm happy with the product!

 

Nice looking rigs

 

Non factory TRD PRO wheels 17x8's.. So far so good, they balanced really well when I switched the stock tires on them, not much at all no more than an ounce and a half per wheel. They are made pretty well in that regard. Noticed the handling on them through the steering wheel is more responsive and less 'balloony' given the extra 1/2 inch of width to them. The stance is just where I wanted it to be too. Would have got the factory pro wheels if I were to do any off road, given durability, but I didn't want to go from a 7.5" wheel to a 7" wheel, and I don't plan on doing any off road in this truck. Simply using this truck for hauling house hold things for house flipping projects. I don't see too many threads on these after market wheels so I figured I'd give a little insight on them. So far, so good for my use.

 

Painted my MBRP exhaust, and if it can last 2 years I'll be happy.

 

I don't know how they did it, but somehow it checked out!

 

Must live on coast or where they use salt?

 

Got some vinyl added.



Trying to decide if it's too much.
