What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I posted the link in a previous reply, that was you can see the custom set. It’s a little over a foot long.

 

Love this charger maintainer. I’ve got it mounted under hood

 

You’re probably right

 

I used this. Seems to be very good quality.

Love the tag.

 

Each circuit is fused with a 4x fuse block just to the right of the panel. I ran a 14gauge line back from a fuse panel with a 15A fuse connected directly to battery power. The plexiglass panel is mounted with 2x "L" brackets using 4 SS bolts and then 2 SS bolts fastened to the bottom of the cubby. I have a small blue LED that illuminates the fuse block in behind the panel at all times so if I do blow a fuse I will be able to identify quickly. The pin switch turns on the backlit LED in the switches so when I open the door they come on.

 

Beauty, thanks! Glad I haven't cut any holes in the cubby cover yet lol

 

Bumper looks great. How long ago did you order it?

 

I couldn't agree more!

 

BAMF bumper installed

 

Wish they made something similar in a non high clearance bumper.

 

Re: RF Interference:

I have the DD Pro Ditch lights, and the DD Sport fog lights. They are both awesome, but I just noticed last week that they interfere with my VHF/UHF reception. I don't get any noise when I turn them on, but it cuts out any signal I happen to be receiving at the time. I also have the 32inch Caliraised hidden light bar, but I don't notice too much interference from that, at least not with the testing that i've done so far. I did a lot of searching around on the QRZ forums for a solution, but didn't find one yet.

Personally, I like all the lights too much to take them out, I'll just deal the RF I guess.

 

Does putting on winter wheelset count? I painted the rims fwiw

 

Finally bolted down my bed tracks... holy crap was that a pain in the ass... Didnt have anyone to help me, so I had to duct tape a 7/16 wrench to the lock nuts, then go back into the bed and use the drill to drive the bolt in hoping that the wrench didnt fall off.

I think when I install the 2 next ones I am going to just use jack nuts.

I got all but 3 bolts in. 2 of them just happen to drill into stiffening ribs under the bed, so I need to figure something out bout those (probably just dremel the rib a bit to fit the nut in there), and the 3rd is above the gas tank where I cant really reach it. Im going to drop the tech that does my fuel pump recall $20 if he drives that nut on while he has the tank out.






One of the tracks didnt have the hole countersunk, so I need to do that, but lucky that hole was over the stiffening rib so I couldnt put the bolt in anyhow.

 

Overdoing it -- I identify with that...

 

Dammit! Now i want a black soft topper

 

Yes, you do

 

Do you happen to have a link to the rails? I'm thinking it might be a good idea to do. I'm planning on doing a half bed slideout but these fit in so nicely that I may do them on the otherside/instead.

 

This picture should be next to the definition in the dictionary of the word "Sexy"...it's looks so good sitting uninstalled that I wouldn't even want to scratch it...but then again, it will protect you from projectiles, road debris and snowflakes...

 

Not planning on getting that powder coated or dipped? Or was this just a fitment test run? Just whatever you do...please.don't.plasti-dip.
