What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

White letters out. I'm liking it.

 

What size are they? Truck looks good!

 

Think he said they were 265/75/16

 

My 2020 OR came with them...

 

Installed a Rogue Offroad top plate today to help with the Taco lean.

 

Will know more either tomorrow or Saturday weather permitting. Plan to haul 16 60lb bags of Quikrete, and a new wheel barrow from Lowe's to my house. About 15 miles with RR crossings, a few steep hills, and some winding curves. I should definitely have an answer afterwards. I'll be leaving the bed mat and factory tonneau on as well. I'll be a bit over, and I normally wouldn't haul this heavy of a load. Usually I'd use my trailer which these would definitely help with as well.

 

Was that very difficult to intstall? Did u have to compress your springs?

 

It's not so much the composition of the frames themselves. The problem that I had were that the logos were not colorfast when exposed to car wash chemicals. They bleached out after only a couple of washes, I'm hoping this new set will do better. Only time will tell.

 

Installed diode dynamics fog lights. Installed the sport versions first but then ordered and installed pro versions. In these pics the pro is on the left and the sport is on the right..

 

Those fog lights look great! I went with morimoto black housing fogs myself, but sorta like these more!

 

I love my diode dynamics fog lights

 

Truck looks really good!

How much extra weight do tires add?

Keep updated on how much this affected MPG

 

since i switched from steel rims i think i lost maybe 5 lbs per wheel even with the tire size increase. ill keep you updated but i doubt mpg will change much. tires are SL so not the 10 ply people think they need

 

255/85r16’s installed! Maxxis MT-762’s

Anyone done these? Looking at picking these up

 

Wasn't very difficult. Didn't have to compress the springs because it sits on top. I only disconnected the sway bar (both sides), uca, top 3 nuts and bottom bolt of shock. I also removed the bolt next to where the sway bar is connected to disconnect the bracket that holds the brake line in place to allow some slack in that line as to not damage it. I didn't totally remove the shock, just lowered it enough to put the spacer in and slide it right back up in place. Watch this video as it helps. He did an extra step by disconnecting the tie rod but I didn't do that. Put the drivers side on a jack stand and use your jack as needed to remove stress to raise and lower the front components for easier removal and assembly.

What happened to DanishTaco? He asked a question about an hour ago that I answered and now he looks banned?

 

I pretty routinely toss 1000 pounds of bagged fertilizer for our tree farm in the bed of my DCSB on factory suspension. You’ll be alright with the concrete bags and the wheelbarrow, it will likely be right around 1k.

 

links to materials and cost? I need something to do.lol

 

Added some handles for the little people to get in the back seat
