What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So much room for activities!

 

I mentioned the Redarc brake controller in an earlier post. A couple of pics:

Liberty Tow Pro mounted to top of kick panel with industrial velcro (this stuff is ON there):


Liberty control knob mounted to dash:

 

New catalytic converter, cause people suck.

 

Not sure if I'll run a permanent coax cable yet. I did look at that (and have the tailgate unlock running through there currently). Good tip though.

 

Hell yes! RCTID!

Edit: More of a hot sauce than BBQ, but still relevant AF.

 

Is there a way you have figured out to keep it from being stolen again?

 

Been trying to find a transmission skid that would cover them, closest I’ve found is ricochet offroad, but not sure if it would work or not.

 

That would be valuable info to share if you find a solution.
Same thing happened to a buddy's Kia Sante Fe.

 

Was it replaced by the dealer ? Oem ?

 

Insurance covered it, the shop made sure to get oem. Apparently they’ve seen a lot of issues with aftermarket cats.

 

I’m waiting on my rci trans skid and I’ll be adding “wings” to it so assholes can’t steal my shit

 

Yeah that’s why I was asking , thanks

 

Curious to see some pics when you’re done. It really ruined my weekend.

No good story ever starts with "Let's have a salad or "We should be careful". .

8:30 in the PM, several alcoholic beverages under our belt, very rural, very Redneck Mission, British Columbia......

"You need more wood for camping...."

 

Hammer hangers and crossmember done. Added a 1” block to my existing icon aal. Def have some rake. Will adjust coilovers tomorrow. I hate spanners

side note— need a new bolt flip and prob some decent bump stops. The ubolts are def close to stripped.

this install was a bitch! Lolol fuck those rivets. I actually cut part of the stock hanger to make it easier to drill. Made it easier for sure... glad I have protein here. What a workout above your shoulders. Lol

I didn’t take a pic when I finished. I need to figure out how to connect the crossmember up top. I’ll prob weld it so it can be connected and disconnected remotely easy. Crazy how much rust under the stock hangers. It’s a 2020 with 16k miles. You can see the difference with hd hangers vs stock too:

 

Curses on the wobbly internet connection here....my apologies for the multiple images. Again.

I finally got my Icon upper control arms installed. Looks and drives great.
