What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Early 90s GMC

 

What headlights did you go with?

 

They look like SpyderAuto headlights. TacomaBeast is selling them.

 

Yeah. I had those and sent them back. Unimpressed with the light output.

 

I agree. The lights are a complete downgrade over the stock lights lol. I’m still running them for some reason

 

Sweet looking lights, but I was so assed up about them, I couldn’t get over it.
After the install I noticed that my DRL don’t work anymore. I don’t know.

 

so..probably a lame question, but: bug shields on the hood...I always thought they were sort of "old man-ish", but after a few high way trips this past week, am considering one now...any suggestions for ones that don't look like "my dads old F-150"

people tell me that am an old man now so it shouldn't bother me, but I don't see it....

 

I've had a Stampede Vigilante on mine almost 2 years now. Got it from Advance Auto. Have a 15% discount online. Might work. Not sure.

Hope that helps!

 

the AVS brand and WeatherTech don’t look bad IMO

 

So cool. Thank you!

 

Installed my Uptop Overland Bravo rack & Softopper, now looking for a way to mount my awning. the Overland Vehicle Systems mount bracket doesn't fit my rack, and the Uptop Overland mount bracket doesn't fit the awning. Hardware store at lunch today to find longer u bolts

 

sweet!!! Will look into these...

 

Thanks appreciate it

 

What rims are those?

 

I’m curious about how you mounted these also. I have basically the same GMC hooks laying around, but have also considered these.

 

No Ragerts so far. Nice and quiet and feel generally more planted on the ground. Taking them out in the wilds next month, that will be the true test.

 

I hope you didn’t get that tattoo yet...

 

I've liked my AVS AeroSkins. The only issue is that it uses double sided tape to attach directly to the hood. If you ever removed it, you might have an issue with paint? Can't really tell you if they did anything to protect the hood or windshield. My Gen-2 had so many chips on the hood, that I bought the shield to cover them up I liked the look (I am pretty old) so I put one on my Gen-3 when I got it.

I had a shinny smooth finish one on my Gen-2



And have the matt finish one with the "Bump" on my Gen-3

 

I've had them out a few times on rock, mud, dirt, logo deep water, and have been pleased. Only disappointment was blowing a sidewall on a rock after I made it over the obstacle. Sliced in two spots, not much to do about it.
