What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks!! It's a first-year '96 - bought it new during our last tour in Germany - still running strong.

 

Decided to go for it and installed the @MESO Chrome Delete Kit and Vent Ring Kit. Took about an hour to get everything removed, replaced and reinstalled. Now I need the door handle covers!!

 

Looks great! Chrome delete door handle kits are close...

 

Built a power distribution box for accessories, installed CaliRaised switch panel. Lots of wire loom, heat shrink and soldering today.

 

Oh Thank Jesus !! The chrome ones are driving me nuts.

 

How about those steering wheel overlays and smart flip fob?

 

I think those are the best looking sliders!

 

got an alignment done today after installing JBA high caster UCAs. Do these numbers look good??

 

The flip fob for sure!

 

I dont know about the tires but I'd guess in the $200-$250/ tire range and I have the same rims and I think I got them for a little under $700 for all four from 4Wheelparts

 

Cannot wait for them!

 

I found them on Amazon.....I ordered them at the beginning of June

 

Bath day for the truck and had good luck with 303 spray on OEM the bed cover. Used it on the tires too and I like how it brought out the black without looking greasy. Used another spray wax for the paint but may try the 303 wax later.

Also installed the JLT catch can. Say whatcha want about the usefulness of these on the 3.5 having port injection spraying the valves along with direct but I plan on driving the truck until the wheels fall off and piece of mind never hurt.

Didn’t like the phillips screws on the bracket so I swapped them for black button head screws

 

The place was called Decals2go on Etsy. I have tried to find the web site since I purchased them and it seems to be gone! But I looked and we had a conversation going and he said you can go here, https://usrallystripesshop.com/, to get them directly from him. Said Etsy was having some issues right now.

 

Meh, i'm not too worried about it at this point. If scratches appear i'll try and resort back to this thread for an update but i dont think it'll be an issue really.

 

Actually did this a few weeks ago but I've been meaning to post this for people who are interested in the TRD Skid Plate but can't justify forking over $380+ on it. This is the stock plate that comes on the TRD Sport/OR.

Overall really pleased on how it came out. Has about 3 coatings of Krylon Fusion Matte Glacier Gray and I hit my towing eyelet red.

Thanks for the tips everyone. Tomorrow I'll remove the headrests and pick up some lighter fluid. I also ordered 3m adhesive remover. Fingers crossed! Otherwise I'm gonna be peeling, and it's hot!

 

Test Fit Day!!

 

Got one side of the rack feet installed after hours of difficulty trying to get the bolts in. I wasn’t able to use the provided lock washer on the front bolt because the bolt wasn’t long enough. That was the first frustration. The second is how it bites into my truck a little. Maybe I’m just being dramatic. I guess for the price I paid, I figured it would have been a much smoother job. Hopefully the other side goes smoother.

 

bruh now I kinda want to plasti dip my skid plate white haha
