What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

You need to find someone with a really short wife that drives the truck occasionally. Seeing over the bump is a problem for those vertically challenged.

 

Stock suspension or lifted? If the latter I'd be curious to know the details

 

Not as bad as one would think. I paid$75.00 canadian with %15 tax. I could only go by the ones on EBAY for price, Beside that fact that i'm in Canada

 

Wish they fit the 2019's. $76.00 is kind of a no brainer (relatively).

 

not prewired like the 2020’s, but the 2016-2019 have an OEM option for a similar price:

I bought the "anytime backup camera" and it was an option. One small issue IMO is that it is only lit when it's on...so reaching for it in the dark can be a bit of a PITA at first.

 

Understood. Just need to drill out an 1 ⅛" hole and a couple smaller ones and then hard wire. Plug and play like the 2020's is the ticket.
I did get some battery LED's strips that are fine for occasional use (camping, fishing, crashing).

 

nice bike! I found when loading bikes like that, it helped to put the front wheel in the driver's side. That made it easier to check the lane to the right when changing lanes. Just FYI

 

It bracket sticks out further than the cover allows the cross bars to be put on. You can’t ope the the cover unless the bars are off though. I’m ok with that

 

Thank you! It’s come a decent way since I got it last year!

 

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to give that a try. I haven't actually driven with it at all yet. I just wanted to make sure I could actually close the swingout before I finished welding on the expanded metal. Waiting for paint to dry on the swingout now.

 

Did my first oil change then this happened. Autozone came through with a replacement

 

SOM BITCHES !

 

Made shovel/axe mounts from 1/8” flat steel and quick fist. All together cost 35$. Topper setup if finally how I want it. Toolbox on one side, mounts for shovel/axe on other. In the black bag is my snow chains. And under toolbox is 3 gal of pressurized water.

 

Added dual wireless air.

I hope I don't regret going wireless. It passed the first test with flying colors. Using the controller I went up and down many many times, with different psi on left vs right. Worked flawlessly. The app on the phone worked as well. On my f550 I put firestone airbags on with an airlift air tank system 3 years ago. Never a glitch. So this wireless kit got some good reviews and 60 days return policy. So if it sputters at all I'll take it out and give ARB a shot.

 

I copied Wood714's idea and did this. Home made version of the dashboard multi mount. The plastic trim shown is the piece that surrounds the radio on the dash.

Edit: Installed pic. Looking at it now, maybe I should have painted the ram ball stem flat black

 

The one my parents dog goes to has tiered kennel pricing with different amenities. The most expensive "room" is "sound proof", has it's own private t.v. and a chandelier. The owners of Pomeranians and other little dogs eat that shit up. The outside section has a huge Astroturf running area and an 18" deep 15'x30' "pool" that the retrievers go ape shit over. If you do it right, it can be a good business, just think of different revenue streams and how to differentiate yourself. Biggest problems are getting rid of the volume of dog crap and complaints by neighbors over noise depending on the size of your business.

 

WTF? What happened?

 

Fascinating!
I probably missed your other posts. How much air (vol/pressure) do airbags take? I have and ARB for my lockers, and didn't even consider airbags in the equation.

 

New 3.0 Kings came in today for my other 3rd gen. Well 3" long.
