What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Absolutely love em. Super spendy but worth it in my opinion. Only other bulbs as bright i know of are VLED Trion bulb but those require you to drill out the hole and use an adapter to keep em in

 

Cool, thanks for replying so quickly! I'm going to get the 921s, don't really see the need to for drilling and adapter installing.

 

When I installed the MESO Gasshole, I used vise grips to break the screw loose and being very careful not to bend or twist the door.

 

Added a little Meso goodness to my truck...

 

Last week a fellow TW member helped me replace the stock sport struts with new Bilstein 5100's, set on the 2nd notch ("level"). Kept the stock springs. The difference in ride quality on the way home was noticeably better/improved. I'm loving the 5100's. I'm not sure how best to describe the difference other than the truck feels much more planted and solid now. Bumpy roads no longer rattle the truck around like a tin can. The next day I had my local shop replace the stock tires with some Falken Wildpeaks (265/70/17) + Alignment. Very pleased with the outcome. Drawing on saved photos, below is the best before/after I can find.

Top: before with stock struts/tires. Bottom: after with 5100's and Wildpeaks.


Yesterday I finally found time to wash the truck and mount a Sears cargo carrier to the Mobtown bars for an upcoming trip.




And today I finally found time to post!

 

I used a large #2 Phillips square shank screwdriver. Used a pair of vise grip pliers on the shank to get it to loosen up. It has thread locker on the screw. Go easy so you do not bend you gas door.

 

Thanks for the explanation.

 

So my beautiful bronze F5s got damaged at a carwash Impossible to find touch up that matched. I decided to get them powder coated matte black so next time they will be easier to touch up. Getting them put back on tomorrow.

 

I’d like to see how you mounted it

 

I got one of these two years ago and use it daily for work... every service call I run basically and it is still holding up well.

 

Looks great!!! And the back up sensors still work with this bumper? What about the blind spot sensors as well?

 

Tinted windows makes me love the black even more.

 

I did the Bilsteins all around on my Sport, with BFG tires, stock springs, level, around 2.5-3 years ago. Best ride improvement I could imagine. You will appreciate it for a long time. My stock Sport shocks were just junk.

 

I took some loop sided velcro and put it on the door panel and attached my trauma kit to the door

 

back up sensors work. Blind spot monitor will not, as it needs a plastic bumper to transmit.

 

Holy hell that’s cheap

 

Yep original owner paid $23k otd

 

Exciting day. Cleaned bird shit off the windows and trim.
