What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got a used canopy!!!!

 

It will take you all of 15 min and a 10mm wrench. Note disconnect the negative on the battery so you dont take an airbag to the face. They sound really nice compared to the stock ones.

 

Received these from Wheeler's Off-Road today. Will be replacing my ICON CO's and 5100 Rears. Now I just need to find time to install them.

 

I was wondering how this was going to fit in a 2018 when I finally get mine. What were the size dimensions of the Grid-It? Thanks for the photos.

 

Great idea! I always worry that one day I'm accidentally going to switch into 4H and mess something up. Really wish they'd change the location of the transfer switch.

 

It's the 5x7 grid it.

 

well this is usually the first mod I like doing. Love the sound this thing makes now.

Install was simple. Besides being a dumb ass and over tightening the Plastic crank case vent tube adapter. It snapped so I had to go find a brass replacement right off the bat.

Acceleration seems a bit smoother too or it’s me thinking it is lol either way I like it.

 

Finished up my revolver x4 installation. Besides needing to drill out one bedside screw and use pb blaster on all the rest it went pretty smooth.

3 Concerns though
1: The weatherstripping by the cab seems to be too thick, it makes the tonneau cover stick up just a tiny bit, I think if it was a 1/2 inch instead of 3/4 inch it would be perfect.
2: These claim to be able to hold 300 lbs spread out, just like the MX4, but I don't think it can even come close. The whole thing is much more soft in the middle than my MX4 was, and I wouldn't put more than 20-30lbs on any one spot. There just is not ANY support in the center.
3: There are NO drain tubes, but I can see a few tiny tiny spots where rain will be getting in. I will have to flex seal them later today, NBD.

 

Make sure you have a backing plate under a vice if you're planning on attaching it to that workbench.

Looks great to work on small stuff, but the second you stress that plywood you're gonna have a bad time.

See if a local machine shop can chop a piece of 1/4" steel the size of a backing plate when you get a vice. It'll be stronger than the entire work bench

 

Finally got the winjet lights in.
I have black door handle covers and mesojdm's mirror signals on the way. Once the signals arrive, I have color matched mirror covers to replace the chrome ones.
Getting ready to purchase a set of black XD 778 wheels, which will get the last of the chrome off.

 

What app or software did you use to make this?

 

If you are gonna blackout everything why did you buy a limited ?

 

Limited had everything I was looking for and I got it used for cheaper than my 4x2 trd sport that got totaled.

 

Well unfortunately there is rain in the forecast for the next 4 days... so here is a little sneak peak. The best I can do for now.

 

Truck looks sweet man! Im sure you have already answered this quite a few times butttt what grille is that?

 

Did some mods yestersay for my birthday! Window tint, door sill protectors, tailgate inserts, blacked out chrome around air vents, console cover, LED interior dome lights.

 

Very nice Taco What size tires?

 

It has a v6 under the hood on the cover....

 

beat me to it
