What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Seriously digging this!

 

And, fuel pump recall done! 3 hours without the truck and shuttle service to and from home. While I had it at the dealership I opted to use one of my Extended Care services and they discovered that the front brake rotors are warped. Any thoughts on upgrading those?

 

Damn lay off the heavy braking lol jk

 

I have a 2018 with 23k on it and I have started getting vibration at higher speeds when braking. Also curious as to what the options might be.

 

My rotors were also warped during my warranty period. Fixed, but after a year, they are warped again. I can feel the steering wheel shuttering when coming down hill on the highway. Apparently this is a known defect and they will not change the rotors.

 

Installed rock sliders 15* with kick out by Fabzone armor

 

That, a couple sand spikes and a bucket of lead seem to have a home in the back of the truck at all times.

 

I'll chime in. No. Stock straps not necessary.
Look at 183095.

 

For anyone that has a DCLB and wants to cut a 5x7 barn mat to size (purchased from TSC or other farm supply store), and put down in the bed instead of paying for an OEM mat, here's the dimensions that I cut my mat too along with some pics. I was generous with my cuts around the wheel wells and D-rings...you may want to cut yours closer. I used an OLFA knife, but any utility knife will do...just have to go over your cuts 3 or 4 times to slice all the way through. Adds a bit of weight to the bed as well. Cheers!

 

How are you liking those SSC2’s? Looks like floods? I ordered some from @memario1214 (who’s customer service is freaking awesome!) but I got the combo pros. I’m excited to get them. Also, did you do anything with the backlights?

 

Installed the ME-SO Customs Ultimate Turn Signals. It's an easy install, a trim removal tool is better than fingertips for removing the mirror cover. The lights look great, much brighter than stock. My only comment is the clip in the middle of the bracket was a little too short to engage and lock into the top of the new lights, that happened on both mirrors. Everything was seated correctly, the screws went right in correctly.

 

I painted my bike to match the other day too

 

RCI bed rack and All Pro rock sliders.

 

Had the same idea, but I took it a step further, and wired it up there also....
Supplied hose reaches all 4 tires easy!
I attached a quick disconnect plug to the Cables and added a plug to the jumper cable I cut off, so I can still remove it to make it portable.....

 

Back in the day......I have been a Toyota 4X4 truck fan for quite some time. Had a summer where I got this Suzuki 100 for free, fixed it up, painted it to match the truck, painted the Police helmet to match it as well. Had fun that summer then I realized that these old bones ain't gonna bend like they use to when you go down. The bike was a nice mid-life fling that I actually survived.

 

Yea, they’re floods. I got the sports as to not spend so much money just in case. But so far so good, they’re plenty bright for being so small. I do however plan to get another set of floods and move them all to my rack for scene lighting. I may put some ss3 pros in a driving pattern on the ditch brackets.

I haven’t touched the backlighting, yet, but will in the future when everything is moved to its final position.

this picture is just the ssc2’s.

 

I have a 2017 OR access cab with 65000+ klms but no brake issues. Do you ever use the transmission to slow the vehicle?

 

Thanks for doing the leg work.

 

Would you be willing to sell the chrome ring around the push to start button? I cracked mine after replacing the button. If so, and it’s not damaged, let me know- thanks.

 

Funny thing is that I actually make it a point to minimize brake use - maintaining distance and such. I did buy this truck used so i dont know how it was driven in the past. Towing our travel trailer might be a contributing factor.
