What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

and everything on the truck is metric..., did you know that NASA has been building all their stuff using guess what measurement system...yes, you're right...the metric my friend!

 

Beautiful S2k.
Nice truck.

The perfect choices to fill a garage.

 

Nice!

 

There must be a Canadian on the writing staff.

 

Did anyone notice that in Star Trek TNG all units of measurement etc. was is metric? Resistance is futile.
Convert to metric already.

 

I know, right! It’s so much easier too. We’re so behind.

 

Bravo!

 

It came painted from ARE......not cheap though

 

Thanks. What are you running in the front

 

Nice work. Curious what the plug gab is, and is that gasket set needed for the plug service? TIA

 

Had my needle bearing replaced with the ECGS bushing.
At Rock Your 4x4 in Knoxville. Awesome guys, did a fantastic job, and their price made it totally worth not having to do it myself.

 

Really, this was yesterday but I was too tired and dinner was on the table. I'm catching up now.

Installed the Smittybuilt x20 12k winch.

I should now be able to get out of those precarious parking spots at the mall.

 

wickedest truck tent win!

 

I wouldn't say behind, just different...could be worse, imagine I'd you drove on the "wrong side" of the road and sit in the passenger side...so yes, could be worse...until you drive up to Canada (...or if you go to Europe) and you find yourself scratching your head when you see signs that show 110...kilometers per hour...or $1.13 for 1 litre of gasoline

 

The last time I was in England though, the Highway signs were in miles for distance as well as the speed limit signs were in MPH. Go figure the English were trying to hold on to the English system of measurement. I wonder if they still do a yard of beer at pubs or is it a meter now.

I made an auxiliary front wind fairing for the sunroof option on my Bravo @upTOPoverland roof rack. This helped cut noise down a lot that was coming from the front face of the top mounted bins. The Bravo rack is very quiet otherwise... I had never used a strip heater to bend plexiglass before, but its actually very simple. Pro tip: build a good jig to fold the plexiglass over at the right spots. The strip heater took about 10 minutes to make the 4.5mm thick plexiglass able to be bent easily.

I sourced a piece of black plexiglass from a local plastics company here in town (they also have stuff on Amazon its just a little more $$ or not in a customizable size)
This is the 48" strip heater that I used: https://www.interstateplastics.com/Plastic-Strip-Heater-Accessories-HTCREA.php

 

That came out insanely great!

 

Some of the angles aren't perfect, but you'll never know it. I had no idea if it was going to turn out or not... Not bad for my first try!

 

This is why I say I speak American, not English. My wife who has a British passport just rolls her eyes
