What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Took my air dam off finally. Can't believe I drove around this long with it on.

Also put my black emblem overlays on. Might debadge eventually.

I need to do something about the grill, the chrome bezel bugs me.

 

Let's call this revision 500 of my audio

JL VX1000/5i with TuN integration

 

Warm day at 43 so dug a path to access my spigot and got a wash and light waxing done. Winston and I both enjoyed the nice weather and sunshine

 

Two birds with one stone!

The sliders line up with the edge of the fenders. 285/70R17s stick out just slightly more than fenders and sliders. Murphy approves!

EDIT: Are they usable as a step for the length of the cab...definately. If you need I could get a shot from the top down to show how much foot you can get on it but the short answer is plenty.

cheers

 

If you like the look of my grille all I did to get rid of the chrome was order the black bezel from an sr to swap it out with. Took all of 15 minutes! I can find the part number for you if you need it.

 

I need to remove an NTTA toll tag to move it to the other side of the mirror. Anyone ever remove one and reapply it? My new Garmin picks it up on the right side and it needs to be moved.

 

Winston is an awesome name. I'm on 4 and 5 as we speak ..... Riley and Jasper.

 

What an Awesome looking dog! Is it a Border Collie or Australian Shepard?

 

Mini Aussie, 6 months old, COVID puppy. Thanks .45!

 

And so it begins.....

17x7 TRD Rims
265/70/17 KO2
Stock Suspension with 2” spacer and rear lift blocks.

 

Looks good man. I've got a pretty similar setup myself.

 

I'll stay tuned to hear about the short throw. I've been eyeing those.

 

Received and installed my ECT Always On module and extended fuse box cover. Pretty cool.

 

Is that 2” spacer up front or 2” lift up front? I read somewhere that a 1” spacer will give 2” lift on the front. What did the 2” spacer give you in the front? I may be mistaken on it. I’m just starting to did into the lift options. The truck looks great.

 

Replaced the rear blocks with an Icon 3 leaf pack and removed the front lift spacers and adjusted the perch on the 5100’s. Went from a 3/2 lift to a 2.5/1.75. I removed the smallest leaf spring from the Icon pack and left the factory overload in. May end up putting the small leaf in. Before on top after on the bottom. New wheels get here Thursday

 

It’s a 2” spacer for the front and 2” lift block for the rear. I wanted to keep the factory rake.

 

CBI Ditch light brackets finally showed up today in the mail and it just so happened to be 12°c outside and sunny so I took the time to install my Baja Designs S2 Sport ditch lights. had to make some adjustments to the harness provided and ran along with the OE. Also got to wire my first thing to the aux fuse panel

 

Sorry to keep asking dumb questions but how much did the 2” spacer lift the front? Your truck looks close to level in the pics. Also how does it ride? I have heard that a spacer lift will tend to make it ride a little stiffer than stock. I don’t go hard off-road like many of the guys on here but very mild trails or country roads.

 

Got the lift installed today. Fox 2.0 Performance Coilover Shocks. ~1.5 inches of lift in the front and 0 in rear.

 

No worries, I’m new to this as well. It gave me a 2” in lift in the front. As for the ride, it rides a little stiffer than stock which I think is better.
