What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not on problems, on mods. You’ll see..... BTW welcome to TW!

 

I have one in the drive that could use some spiffn up..

 

What is that?

 

Blacked out the trd center caps and gave her a bath.

 

O.K. Now I'm really starting to hate you!




But in a good way!
These are awesome!

 

Had hyper flash, so I ordered plug and play resistors; wrong size socket for the housing! At least I’ll be able to return it to Amazon and try the second type and hope it’s correct. (Used a telescopic magnet to fish out the bulb)

 

It’s just time and patience. The only time skill or experience comes in to play is buffing. You in Maine?

 

Installed the ARB Recovery Point before a little offroad trip this weekend. This is a mod I went back and forth on, but when it came down to it I just didn't trust the stock hook...
Bad: expensive ($250), HEAVY (19 lbs! vs. 3.8 for the stock hook), and may get in the way on approach.
Good: this thing is beeefy

 

Jeeeez

 

Well the bad part is there is only going to be 1. The good part is there is only going to be 1. Someone else will see them and have a have an easier way to make them.

Old fashioned way. Too much work. No computer or printer here. And thank you.

 

And stuffed the new spare in place - thought I'd have to bend the tabs but the 255/75 17 fits nicely.

 

Not a single problem. Just the pure fun of modifying your truck to your taste. You know buying things like new wheels, tires, lift, audio, lights, etc. Guys on here can corrupt your mind.

 

Oh! any suggestions? The only thing I know I am for getting is the rubber mat for the bed

 

Little mods I like:
Bed mat as you suggested. the OEM one is top quality
Redline hood struts.
Window Tint
Black out badges if you're into less chrome
Any of the little nick-nacks from Meso
All weather floor mats. I like the Husky brand but Weathertech is okay too.
Dash cam

Tons of others, but that's a good start and won't break the bank.

 

That was it,thanks. I adjusted it up enough to have it not be hard to see under.

 

Brother-in-laws second gen got squished today on PCH

 

Hope everyone is ok. Sorry it happened.

 

He was parked on the beach with me the girl who slammed into him though was going probably 60mph

 

Good list. I might add seat covers, a sun shade, and I love my window vent shades. Seat covers CAN be big bucks, but the other two are cheap. I got some peace of mind from up-sizing the battery (need to swap battery trays with a Gen2).

 

Changed out beadlock bolts to black so once again the exterior is completely chrome free.
