What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I like it -- it all depends on how you want your camp set up. I could probably get away with the awning on the same side as the tent entry/exit if I had a 5-6 ft awning, but with the 8-ft, it wouldn't work.

 

A Thank You to all of our Vets for their service to our country!

 

I'd be lying if I said this happened today but it did happen in the past week! Cap-It Bulldog HR, their house brand canopy in a high rise configuration. Paint match is decent enough, price was decent, quality looks good, has an overlay for the tailgate spoiler. The rear hatch is slightly misaligned but it's not something I feel I need to see Cap-It to fix, I can easily put a small piece of weather stripping down to avoid any water leaks. However I will not be able to check if it's leaking any water until spring now that we've had our first winter storm (silicon sealing will likely happen in the spring as well). Measurements as follows in centimeters and inches:

Rise after cab: 109cm/43"
Back end height: 119cm/47"
Door clearance: 107cm/42.5"
Tall windows: 48cm/19"

 

Installed new ABS guards today.Front and rear. Everything looks good but, the right rear mounts with the TRD upside down. Still protects though.
Followed these instructions:

SNOW!!!!!!!

 

New lift yesterday. 6112 set a bit higher than I wanted..Thoughts?

Bilstein 6112 / 5100
OME UCAs
Falken Wildpeak AT3W 285/70/17 on TRD Pro wheels

 

Thanks man! I was pretty thorough with measuring and such, wanted to have it right the first time haha.

 

I think you made the right choice for substance as well. I went with Amber covers, after reading about options, it was either yellow or amber for best performance.

 

I think you’re right, the front is too high.

 

Welcome to TW M8!

 

It will settle give it a month. I have mine on 6/5 with a lead pack in the rear. No number weight or anything upfront and now it looks pretty level.

 

Anyone have a clue how to remove the caps for Camburg UCA? I don’t want to scratch the sh!t out of them. Just need to do a little bit of greasing.

 

Looks good, it definitely is sitting high in the front, did you do an AAL, leaf pack or block in the back? 5100s alone wont provide rear lift.

 

block in the rear. Do you think I should give it time and see if I settle in the front?

 

I don't know that seems like a lot of settling, what size block in the rear? 1'' or 1.5''? I mean up to you, most do 6/5 with an AAL or 1.5'' rear, I would for sure give it some time and then reassess before you do anything.

 

1” in the rear. Front is set at 6/5. Measured 24 3/4 from hub on front and 24 rear

 

I'd see if it settles a bit and go from there, you are close for sure. Looks good, I wouldn't worry about it too much and I'd leave the front so your not having to mess with CMC and can accommodate more tire options if you choose down the road, can always AAL or 1.5'' block if it still remains nose high.

 

Thanks again, really appreciate it!

 

No prob dude.

 

Yep and then some, it loves to work. 1/2 yard of #57 stone (~1,700 lbs). Without the AAL it wouldn't have been pretty. Probably changing out the full packs next summer to something beefier.
