What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Army 66-60875 UH-1H, 1980/86

 

Ordered a hitch mount bed extender, some rhino straps and console organizer.

 

Some badging and retro mudflaps. I've decided I dont want to do the retro look and instead want to go for bigger tires so I will be selling these in the Marketplace once I have been here long enough to post there.

 

I installed my fire extinguisher mount and also my MESO Stealth Pro knob. Waiting on them to release their door lever covers before i order that. Then the last of the chrome trim shall be gone! Muahahaha!

Where do I get this dashmat? Looks nice.

 

Comes free with a 30 pack of ultra....

 

Didn't really do anything to the Taco, but I got the winch in, still awaiting the bumper to put it in

Picked up a Warn 9.5 xp-s. It came with the wireless controller, which I didn't know it did so that was a nice surprise. I was kinda thinking as opening the box "for this price the damn thing should have wireless" lol. Pretty expensive, but it's the same winch I had on my Xterra and it was freaking bulletproof.

 

True...

 

I put on ARB rear air locker, and regeared to 4.88

 

Nice! Made an already capable truck even better!

 

And made my local shop very happy lol.

I am building this truck backwards, and they are digging it.

 

I don't think your going backwards. I'm sure you used the truck on and off road and assessed that you want more capability.

 

Yeah, you could say that. I just perfer to get the high cost items out of the way early. We are building this up as our vacation truck. First thing was what we did today, suspension next, then going to get the bumper/wench/armor, and we are going to get tires when we get were we are going.

 

Sounds like a solid plan

 

Must be a b#@&! to keep balanced. That's some hard core usage!

 

Thanks for choosing us! It looks great!

 

I have a victory 4x4 bedside molle on order. I seriously considered caliraised but I have a rail mounted lomax tonneau and really wanted to keep the factory front tie down and access to the rail for...drumroll... bungee grocery cargo basket thingies. I want the molle for stashing a camping chair where the hi lift goes on real trucks, and a molle pouch for bungees and tie down straps which will double as a back rest. Maybe when my boys are older I can get the axe and shovel and hi lift.

Question for you or anyone else, the red can, I’ve seen them everywhere but never found one to purchase, anyone have a link? Is it safe to use that for portable water?

 

Any suspension upgrade with the additional weight?

 

Every truck needs a good wench

 

Truth...

Got the front windows tinted @ 35%. Solid match on the rears, looks good.
