What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

25 years ago when I had a 1974 IH Scout II, in college, used tires was a life saver. No way I could afford new tires for that beautiful truck.

 

Did nothing because I'm watching Star Wars marathon. The normal version, not the Appalachian version: Luke, I am your father...and uncle..."

 

Used Steel-it a and painted and installed Pelfreybilt steel fuel tank skid

 

Interesting info

 

Yakima Jaylow

 

Played around on a dirt road. This passes for a hill around here in West TN

 

I took her for a paint job

 

thanks dude

 

Camper shells with that Decked Box are . If I didn’t buy a DB tonneau I would have went that route.

 

I’ll have to tell my buddy about these! Never really noticed the seat being low but he’s always complaining

 

Did a little Demelo bumper install this weekend. Thanks to Erick at @state48overland for the great all around buying experience.

 

Looks awesome!

 

Came out awesome!

 

I bought a set from Dennis like allot of other folks did. The 1" spacers are the norm but he will make them to different sizes also. You can read the reviews. Good product.

Sweetness bro, looks killer. My Demello bumpers are being made as I write this.
Got the same bumper coming, one for the FJC and sliders for the Taco and Runner.
The guys at @state48overland will most definitely complete your shopping experience.
I recommend anyone who is wanting to do a little modding to their trucks to check out their site.

They have a large selection of products, that enabled me to bundle a bunch of different stuff together. Just straight up easier for me...one purchase at one place. They have discounts all the time!

I was going to start off with a small order at first to see what’s up with them...well after I believe a 1.5hr conversation it ended up being a Crate not pallet of armor.
Probably the most interesting thing. Was that I ordered over 4K worth of bumpers
and using their APP plan, I only had to put down a small deposit until the bumpers were finished. How cool is that!!! I saw crazy deals on Demello’s bad a$$ bumpers and had to jump on it for Black Friday. If you have not taken the time to check out Jason Demello’s works of art, your missing out.

Also just ordered an SPOD Bantam, Baja Designs Lights (you guys are gonna flip when you see this) Expedition Essentials TPAM, and a couple other things.
I am setting up a trip to drive across the coast from Ga to Az to visit them. Trying to bring some other TW members with me on

Think I will be ordering their Diff Breather kit shortly. They did a good job putting this little kit together.

 

Should also said, your truck looks killer, not just the bumper! Lol

 

The only thing I didn’t like was they are obviously thicker and you sit up just a bit higher. I felt I was sitting on the seat rather than in the seat if you know what I mean. However I have dogs and with their muddy feet it wipes right off. Years down the road you remove them and you have fresh looking cloth seats. Just my 2 cents worth. I’d buy them again if my ‘19 didn’t already have leather.

 

Were you offered Cilijet, and if so, what are your thoughts?

 

Not trying to nitpick, but if your color choice is in reference to the military, you're spelling it wrong. I spent 20 years in the "Cavalry", and aside from what you mentioned that occurs in the movies with John Wayne, blue is usually associated with Infantry. Calvary, or Golgotha, was, according to the Gospels, a site immediately outside Jerusalem's walls where Jesus was crucified. Again, I think it's a beautiful vehicle, just my OCD kicking in.
