What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So are many bourbons (Jim Beam included) distilled in Nelson County, KY, which unless they recently changed in the last few months, a dry county.

 

I have a black as well, and was considering blue, but I found that I prefer red, so that's what I went with.

 

285/75r16 km3's with method wheels nv 305 machine finished

 

Thanks.

 

Trying to get it installed with the least amount of hassle. Instructions would be nice.

 

Installed some 4Runner TRDOR wheels with 285/70r17 Wildpeak AT3Ws in C load range. They drive great!

 

Yeah, Seibon makes really nice strong carbon parts. Fitment is great too.

 

Hood pins?

I haven't seen hood pins in a loooooong time.

Hmmmm...

Huh. Turns out that's a legitimate concern with aftermarket hoods.



...and they'd look pretty cool.

 

Yup, that was me. @Rottencotton

Follow the instructions in this video for disassembly. then...

1. thread on the shift boot retainer until snug when it bottoms out, then back off just a lil bit
2. secure the shift boot to the shift boot retainer with a zip tie (tight, but loose enough to be able to turn without twisting shift boot)

Put center console back on (don't forget the electrical plug!)

3. add included washer on top of the shift boot retainer
4. thread on the gold thread adapter to the shifter as much as you can finger tight
5. thread the new shift knob onto the gold thread adapter
6. tighten the shift knob (should be going into the thread adapter, then down the shifter) until everything is snug
7. tighten the shift boot retainer and shift knob so that they snug against each other --><--- (don't snug everything by bottoming out the threads at the bottom of the shifter)

I guess for extra safety measure, hood pins are required.
I never ran hood pins on my tuners and never had an issue lol.

 

Gotcha. Must be 109 Bee St. My father went there too.

 

@dallas05taco If you get a chance, can you please post some pictures with the lights on and further back (with brake and turn signals if possible) All the pics on their website are close up. I'd appreciate it! Smoked lenses looks good on your truck!

 

Technically, it meets the requirements for a bourbon but TN does an additional filtration step which classifies it as TN whiskey. They could call it bourbon if they wanted too, but then there is nothing to make it distinct, from a marketing perspective.

Plus, they know TN bourbon/whiskey is inferior anyway... Haha

 

Installing these this week

 

Thank you sir. Do you know what the difference is between the auto and manual?

 

I've lived in Nelson county for 15 years now. It hasn't been dry in that time. Jim Beam is in Bullet county as is the Four Rose's bottling plant (I'm pretty sure you can do a tasting at their gift shop). They are about 12 minutes from my house.

 

My instructions are for the auto. The MT is a larger thread, 12mm, while the auto is 8 x 1.25. Per @RallySOP the Sick Speed shift boot adapter will not work without chopping it down to fit over the non-threaded portion of the MT shifter. (see link below)

Do they have a discount factory outlet store, like bakeries?

 

As soon as my newborn goes to bed, the work begins. Roof rack and bed rack going on slowly but surely

 

My mistake, I meant Bullitt, I always get those twisted up. Beam tour has turned corporate since the Japanese bought them out, it's an overpriced tour now, but Makers has really upped their tour game (I believe it's still free) and is well worth the visit, as is four Rose's. I'm in Vine Grove, by Knox, not much further.
