What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It was tight enough I had to hold the fuel door to make sure it didn't bend but I was able to get it off by hand using a #2 phillips screwdriver. If you are using a good quality screwdriver and hold the door I couldn't imagine it giving you much trouble.

 

Well damn it, oh well Meso needs my money lol. I was just used to them always having a clip in the middle of the fuel door.

 

That is magnificent. Nice work.

Ordered my window vents because its facken hot
And some wedge type led for my last interior led swap.
Loving where my truck is now.
Got a $500 bonus from work this week so that will go into maintenance as I am at 60k.
Any big items I should be looking for??

 

Sooooo, I was bored with the rain, and decided I needed a bracket for the cheap first aid kit I got soooo.....

I really like the Decked system but it’s too much for me too.

 

Did this little mod to get rid of the nasty little rub from -38mm offset.

This is the video that shows how to trim and relocate the front fender liner. My tires aren't as tall as the ones in the video. For the back of the liner I just used a heatgun and softened the plastic and pushed it in and out of the way.

 

What is the plywood thickness? 3/4”?

 

Or you just could have bought an SR. Chrome delete takes exactly 7 minutes and 36 seconds for the whole truck! Lol. Just playin' your truck looks great!

 

Tire rotation, new engine and cabin air filter and a little engine bay cleaning all after a 330 mile trip home.

 

Dealer sticker mod lol

 

I work in an office downtown and the parking spaces in the lot I park in are tiny. I use it when I'm parking so I know how close I am to the person in front of me. I try to pull in as far as I can to avoid having people hit my rear bumper, which has happened before (hit and run). Especially helpful when the truck in front of me has a huge tow hitch.

I can see it also being useful when off-roading, which I'll be doing in Colorado soon...

 

I wish I was your neighbor.

 

Ok, cool?

There are often times when I head outside to grab something from inside the truck and the driver's door is opposite of my approach, and so I head to the passenger's side door first...

 

Ditto!

 

I used the plywood between the 1/2 and 3/4" thickness. I have already forgot the dimension of what it's called. But it's around 5/8"
We are not that heavy and with that center "I Beam", even 1/2" would have done it.
I believe it was 19/32". $19 and change a sheet. Didn't need 3/4".
Got the indoor/outdoor carpeting for .40/ft.
And the rest of the lumber for the notched out bed supports I found in my stash.
I have under $55 and 1.5 hours invested.
With the rolling shallow plastic storage boxes, I'll still come in under a Benjamin, easy.

 

LMAO. C'mon over, bring hot dogs.....and coffee. I've given up drinking..for a while.

I dont see any reason why you couldn't wire the lights to a switch in the dash like others do to run other accessories.

 

Today I found out i ordered the wrong fog light bulbs. I have H16, not H11 like most ORs I read about. These are the new Tungsram straight from the UK. Live and learn!

 

I had to use a square shanked #2 Phillips screwdriver and Vise Grip pliers on the shaft to break mine loose. It was early morning at work but I could tell the screw had some threadlocker on it. All the while trying to NOT bend or damage the fuel door!
