What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It's not pretty, but it will work until I can get a Molle rack.

 

Yeah right there with you. Nothing wrong with a little ribbing every now and then. All in good fun and friend indeed. I mean who else is gonna give you a hard time about your decals, bed extender, rivet nuts...etc.

 

Can't get the pic of that plate of good eatin' out of my head!

 

I know right! Got another load the day before that was much smaller. The craigslist free section around here has been popping. All the goodwills are closed and people are off with nothing to do. Gotta be fast to get anything though. The cedar is a little rough. Gonna take some cleaning up. Got way more than I need for the trailer, but I have plenty of other projects in mind.

I actually really like the brown. It looks way better than I would have imagined. Bet it won't get as hot as black also.

 

I got a call from wrap shop and was told that they will wrap my roof for 300. Yes!

I will have it done soon.

 

Bought a Diamondback HD cover off Facebook Marketplace last night. Next up, new tail lights to complete the blacked out look.

 

Looks pretty good from here. Rip the edges on those planks and you've got some really nice cedar. Good catch!

 

Haha...I wish we were having it again tonight. Here's another for you. Saw this in the store. Thought you may want me to grab this for you to put in your truck.

 

raises hand!
LOL

 

Now that's a pic that I can definitely get out of my head, hope it doesn't give me nightmares.

You'll forgive me if I can't give you a like for that pic.
Funny thing is they'll probably sell a lot of them, doubtfully here though.
Butt ugly!

 

Finally got my lift on! Truck is getting aligned now. Only drove it a short distance but first impressions is it feel great. A lot smoother now on the road. Not bumpy at all.

Looks good, but even though you had the presence of mind to use a jack along with the jack stands that jack stand stuff scares the crap out of me.

Guess I just value life more than I used to back in the day now that I'm looking towards the other end of the tunnel.

I've just seen too much bad stuff happen!

 

Looks great!

 

I definitely felt it the next morning working on the floor all day

 

It gets worse. I used to bounce right back doing things like that, now it takes a while.

 

Give me your address and I'll go grab one for you.

 

I've changed them all around all over the place.

 

I haven't insulate the doors yet. It's on my list.

 

I did a similar installation and have been very satisfied! I installed the

$100 Kicker 43DSC69304 Kicker DSC6930 6x9" (160x230mm) 3-Way Speakers, 4-Ohm (Pair)

Kicker 43DSC69304 (6 x 9) speakers in the front, the

$80 43DSC6704 Kicker DSC670 6.75" (165mm) Coaxial Speakers, 4-Ohm (Pair)

43DSC6704 speakers in the rear, and the Subaru tweeters in the front. I did install as much of the Noico Sound deadening mat I could reach behind the speakers (ordered the 10 sq.ft. set). I have a 2020 TRD OR with whatever stock HU they use (not the JBL system).
I didn't change any of the settings in the HU. I have been very impressed with the additional ''bottom end" I now get. I listen to a variety of music on Sirius/XM such as The Bridge (32), Willie's Roadhouse (56), Enlighten (65), a classic music station (76), a comedy channel (80 something), and Fox News (114). This covers the first 6 presets that are visible on the screen and I can quickly scroll to other stations near any of these channels. I spent $270.00 total for everything and don't regret any of the $$$ I spent. I will say installation was a "bitch" in places (especially those small clips at the top of the doors!). I'm sorry you have not received the results you hoped for and I hope your sound gets better!

 

Don't let the wife see it Bob.
