What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looking good!

 

Installed my sherpa roof rack light brackets, and baja rock lights . Very bright

 

No, not at all. You can see in the pic that they sit pretty flush. The T55 bolt is probably the only thing that makes them stick up a little higher than stock, but it doesn't bother me. I'm sure if you found it annoying you can carve out a bit underneath the bed mat to really get them to sit flush.

 

Wow, those are bright and they look great! How did you run the wiring?

 

Just got this in the mail

next up is this

 

They’re off Amazon. Not the best but not bad for the price. I fabricated a mount for them but I’m going back to the drawing board to get them closer to the grill for more light output.

I ran the first two together. Used some rubber/vinyl tubing to hide the wires. Zip tied them as I went along. I used 16g wire, prob overkill but it's all I had. Used some 18g from the rack down the window seal so it would fit perfect. Ran it across the engine bay right to my switch pros. Even enabled flashy mode

 

I've never tried popping up the window seal so I wasn't sure where to route the wiring from there. I'm sure it's self-explanatory. Thanks for the heads up!

 

I am assuming that is the "Stealth Black"? Looks good. I have been wondering if the Stealth Black was just the same black as the rest of the rack. Looks like it is.

 

Don't have to pop anything. I just put some silecone lube on and it popped in. You don't have to remove anything

 

That's a lifesaver. I had many pens, pencils, screwdrivers, pocket knives, etc., get away from me while working on the tailgate.

 

Haha you’re right. I covered the logo with 3M safety walk. I just cut little pieces and you can’t really even tell it’s there. Just blends in.

 

Just received my 3 leaf progressive AAL from Headstrong Off-road! Already have my OME 886 coils. Just need to order my Billstein 5100’s.

 

Its just a standard powder coat. Not paint.

 

Still looks really good The main reason I have been wondering is I have a Bravo (no complaints), and a black truck. During the day, its fine, but in low light, the rack doesn't look as black as the truck. So I have been kicking around the idea of getting the added armor for them, but wasn't sure if they were an actual color match like the others. Now I know. Thanks for the info, and great looking truck!

 

you must have pissed off Mother Nature in another life, from wildfire to wind storm! Bummer dude!

 

Would you mind posting a couple pics of the laminx vinyl? I'm curious how they actually look, not too many good photos online. Thanks!

 

If you can't find someone, my wife does that with vinyl, etching, and learning acrylics as well. PM me if your interested.

Ordered a set of General Grabbers AT2 265/70/16 from DT with the help of Matt@DT here in the forum with price matched. Will be installed this Saturday. Tired of the crappy stock OR tires with Kevlars.
