What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not the greatest picture, but my Tyger Auto steps arrived on Thursday. They are heavy, but I managed to get one almost fully installed before the hubby got home. Then I helped him get the other side on. I am happy with them so far. I don’t really use them getting out, but I use them getting in. They make it easier for the kids to get in, which was one of the main reasons I bought them, and they will definitely prevent door dings!

 

Is it worth it ? The pedal commander.

 

Feels so much more responsive! Worth every penny.

 

How was the install ? Easy , invasive , a PITA ?

 

ever turn a keyboard upside down and shake out all the crumbs? do that. remove the door, hold it above your head and shake it until they fall out



i have no real advice, but not getting them out wouldn't be an option. it would drive me crazy.

 

Sweet! Motor sounds like it's straining though. Makes me wonder about it's longevity...

Put on rear kings today! Took a lot longer than it should have (5hrs). But learned a lot. Never done any suspension work before so this was a first for me. Compressing those shocks to make them fit in their brackets...man talk about a PITA. What's wierd...I swear the left one felt significantly harder to compress than the right...but they should be the same.

The ride home was a bit nerve racking. Kept thinking "no left over bolts right? Everything was tight right? I used locktite on all the bolts right? My lugs are tight right?" Lol but the ride is definitely improved. Can't wait to do the front coilovers (in my truck bed right now!)

 

Lol. I can actually see someone trying that. Yea its driving me crazy. Had to stop and go out and get something to eat. Will continue the search later. On another note, when putting the passenger side on, they fell through too. Guess best option is to take them off the door, attach to the trim piece then reinstall. This is wearing me out.

 

I will give that a shot. Thx

 

Took me 30 seconds.

 

Nice. Definitely have been considering and I might be sold if install is seriously that easy

 

Fuse cover delivered and installed. Think I broke the stock one getting it off......oh well, no comparison to this!

 

Noticeable difference in droop travel between Icon Extended Travel coilover and stock Bilstein:



Finished installing my front lift. 700 lb coils seem to be a good choice. With no spring perch adjustment, and additional weight of skids and sliders, I got 2.2" of lift over the stock bare bones truck.

Fitting the BudBuilt T-case skid crossmember next to my fuel pump controller bracket required more creativity

 

There is always the desperation alternative hardcore way to find it.....

 

Installed prinsu rack

 

Detoursofmain.com custom tire carrier

 

Added KnuKoncepts upgraded terminals.



Ports for wiring, 0-4-8 ga. Next step is to mount and wire in my aux fuse panel.

 

Mounted PowerTank on Caliraised Molle panel.

 

Just unplug original, then plug in the 2 other plugs then done lol.

 

That is amazing progress! I have a dream of Puddle Pods w/ your Folding Side Mirror mod that makes me giddy just thinking of it

When its all said and done, in a nutshell how PnP will it be?
