What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks good. Just did the same thing. Looked at it for a few months, then took another month for me to talk my self into it due to the cost.

 

I’ve had issues with my Bushwhacker fenders scratching the paint so I started a thread “ Bushwhacker fenders scratching my paint “.

After couple attempts with double sided tape that did not hold up as well as I had hoped, another member @vipersmack seemed to have found a good solution with clear bra. Another drilled additional holes and actually used the replaced faux bolts on the BW fenders and secured them. Seems to be working well for him but I wanted to try clear bra before pulling out my drill.

Overall happy. We'll see how it holds up..

Before...




Prep...

 

did the LED front turn signal and reverse light mod. thanks @Rob Daman for the video and links to the lights. they work great. I'm excited to be able to back into my driveway and actually be able to see! easiest mod so far.

 

actually looks really good.. i like it

 

Thank you!

 

Don't worry. It for sure will only bend your frame, but the plastic crumple zone will be fine.

 

More pics of the truck with that sweet old school roll bar!

 

always been a fan of green. hard to add green onto vehicles, but you nailed it.. jealous because I can't do that with QS!

 

Glad to help!

I love the reverse lights!

 

The reverse lights make such a huge difference.. amazing what a few $$$ can do! especially here in portland when its just rains constantly, its nice to be able to see when I back up. your videos are super helpful. I've been wanting that prinsu rack too. nice to see an install video. +1 for quicksand also.. hahah

here's my how to vid hatdonuts saw

 

Installed the amber Squadron-R Sport driving/combo fogs

 

Watch those closely. I have several friends with those and they have all had issues. Tread chunking and impossible to balance. Lots of reviews reporting the same thing. I was going to get them, but not after what my friends have gone through. Nitto is shit on customer service as well.

 

Put some new wheels on today.

 

Wow. Sorry you haven’t had the greatest experience with Nitto. I absolutely love my Nitto Trail Grappler 295/70R17. Once I get my Suspension System, I plan on sticking with Nitto Trail Grapplers and getting the 35x12.50R18. These tires are great on and off road; as well as, inclement weather. Road noise is almost non existent as well.

 

Gen 3 hoop scoops are recessed inward down towards the engine. Your thinking of the gen 2 hoop scoops. I’ve owned both the gen 3 has much better visibility probably not much different from non hood scoops of the same generation. FYI
