What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Added red start button ring and trim decals. These are now available in my store!

 

Wahoo!

 

are you happy with the hood lights? i've been debating getting some

 

To be honest, I couldn't be happier. They are perfect. They put out way more light than I thought they would, and install was a breeze. Only time will tell how well they hold up in that crazy under the hood environment.

 

I finally decided to order and install a tailgate lock actuator. I decided to go the Amazon route. 2 for $14.00 Canadian to the door. That's like $2.50 American . I removed my tailgate handle and made a support bracket out of aluminum that mounts to the back up camera mounts. Then figured out the best placement for the actuator that didn't over stress the lock mechanism.


I ran a bundle of wires from the engine compartment to the hitch area. 7 wires total. 2 for the lock and others for expansion.


I ran the lock actuator wires into the cab through main plug seal. I then connected the wires to the left rear door. I didn't get pictures of that. It started to rain, and I just wanted it done. Happy with the mod.

 

You sure got it tricked out quickly: lift, tires, bed rack, all in one weekend?

 

Nicely done! Wondering what your plans are for the additional wiring?

Alright. In my garage right now I have; 4 new SCS F5's in matte bronze, 5 new 265/75r16's, a Prinsu Roof Rack, dual ARB, Caliraised ditch light brackets, Baja Designs S2 Pro's, and the cream of the crop, some in-channel ventvisors. Coming in the next two weeks are my maxtrax, rotopax, and a Plano case for the roof rack.

Was going to wait until April and put everything on at once, but I decided I need some space in the garage so the wheels and tires are going on first thing in the morning.

For today, just a good wash so she doesn't look like a slob when I drop it off in the morning.

 

Sorry for the delay here they are

Damn moneybags! Trucks getting the full makeover I see. You better post pics here with these upgrades so we can all drool over it.

 

Made a access cab platform for my pups to sit on. Gonna get some vinyl tomorrow and make it like a bench seat.

 

Thanks

 

Looking forward to seeing your wheels mounted up. What are the offset on your new wheels? What brand tire did you decide to go with?

 

Gots to get ready! Took her into the Maze and Capitol Reef last October, going back to UT at the end of April to tool around in the San Rafael Swell. Everything going on over the next few weeks is a result of that first trip... pictures definitely coming!

 

You could do something like this.

 

4.50" BS and +0mm offset. I only want them to poke out a little. Falken Wildpeak at3w for the tire, though it was a tough competition between those and the General Grabber ATX. The K02 was never an option, no matter how good of a tire it is I've seen it on too many Subaru's, obnoxiously lifted 2.5 ton trucks, and then the minivan was the last straw.

 

Lost my keyfob in my home parking lot, I have a spare but does anyone know if there's a way to change the signal on the car so it can't read the lost keyfob anymore?

 

I have a set of Ray 10'S 16x8 -10 my self still in the box, still trying to decide on tires. I am a no on BFG'S as well, they are way to heavy. Hoping to have mine installed very soon, I am hoping to not have any rubbing issues my self. Thanks for the info.

 

Address and garage code please.
