What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

A Bulldog hidden winch mount. Fits all inside the bumper fascia and replaces the aluminum crunch bar and mounting brackets.

 

Looks great!

I bought the same kit but I’m a little scared to pull apart the dash, especially since my truck is less than a month old haha.

I Also saw one video where someone had issues taking the chrome trim off the 4WD knob and that you need to be careful with the spring inside?

Did you run into any issues at all with installing the kit?

 

Busy and cold morning. Got the following installed:

-LED light upgrade for dome, map, vanity, and license plate lights.

-Screen Protech protective film on dash, media, and gear indicator screens.

-MESO Total taillight stage 1

and my favorite

-Changed the color of my little truck on the screen when you back up.



The don’t have a MGM image, so I did black because the “grey” is more of a silver.

Got the dog mod installed earlier this week, too.

Didn’t get pics of TTS1, but here’s what I did do.

 

Fresh wash and wax in preparation for the road salt season. I enjoy this truck more and more each day.

 

I had purchased a set of Rhino ramps in advance. It makes working under the front of the truck much easier. The height was perfect for this install.

 

The dash is SUPER easy to pull apart, the switch rings are the only part that is a little tricky, but nothing crazy. Just take your time.

 

You didn’t see any improvement in MPG? I heard you get better MPG. I currently average 13MPG, that’s why I ordered it.

 

Well, thank you for advice, but according to manual H9 is our high beam bulbs. I think what I have now is good enough for me and not too bright for drivers on oncoming
traffic.

 

I ordered these new Prinsu handles from Truck Brigade, I actually really like them and it is nice to have to hoist yourself up to the rack—plus I like that they are also mounts for BD lights... I’ll probably get some wired up once I finish my auxiliary panel project.

 

With a little modification you can fit them to the H11 connector, takes about 2 minutes. As long as your headlights are properly aligned, it will not blind oncoming traffic any worse than the H9’s. It’s a great inexpensive modification to get a noticeable improvement with low beam lighting.

 

Man I needed these ramps today when I installed mine!

What’s the small metal plate on your skid plate where the TRD letter usually go?

 

Its a cheap one I found on Amazon. Link below.

Thanks

 

Took all of 2 days to unlock my Mall Crawler badge after lifting.

 

Recently added a Christmas Wreath to the front Grille. A little off center but too much work to cut the zip ties and redo it haha

 

It's a cover. I'm having mine painted the same colour as the truck so I wanted that area to remain clean. Will post a pic when installed.

 

Great photo! Doesn’t your passenger realize the significance of this moment. She’s not too thrilled it appears.

 

The three wires on your brake light there, are they running/brake/ground? Also, what are your plans for doing hooking it up?

 

Ahhhh, the "dog mod". expensive, but long-lasting and worth it upgrade! Nice. I have yet to unlock that mod, but am happy for you.

Hold on. What did you do to the skid plate? cover the "TRD"? Is that the standard TRD skid Plate? I like it, but why.
