What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

She’s power washing cow shit out of my tire wells… I think I got a keeper

 

Got some new plates for my truck, no pictures on the truck, but I got the "parks and trails" plates. They get me free into any of MN state parks, plus they look way cooler than the normal license plates.

 

Birthday gift to myself.

 

In the process of replacing my painted flares to the matte black ones, as well as adding the Tufskins mud flaps.

 

Wow, that sucks. You may have to bite the bull it and get a replacement part.

 

Nice. If I wasn't getting personalized plates, I would be getting the Stat Park plates. regular old sticker for me!

 

Lift installed today. Bilstein 5100 with OME 887 coils, SPC UCAs, Add-a-leafs in the rear.

 

I was going to get personalized, but the wife didnt like what I wanted to get "PMKNSPC". My truck is inferno, so it looks like pumpkin spice. Parks plates are one of the better looking ones out there too.

 

That plate idea is awesome.

 

Normally I tell my wife im doing it with or without her consent, but I felt this time I would catch more hell than normal for it. Ill wait till the plates need to be replaced.

 

Is the park open yet? We were there last year and it was closed for the plague.

 

If that’s her matrix, don’t let her drive the taco

 

*EDIT: I didn't expect original rotors to not be in such piss poor shape (even in New England) after only four winters.

New rotors & pads @ 93k. Pads had some decent life left but old rotors were so corroded they'd chewed up the outside of the pads. Was in there so went ahead and replaced them too.

 

Added a Deaver AAL to finish off my lift.

Bilstein 5100's on 4th notch
1/4" front leveling spacer
Deaver 1.5-2" AAL
Rear 1/2" spacer

The marked board is before / after.

 

Updated to the new Trd pro headlights and a wash

 

I like your jack stand.

 

Maybe some Honey flavored Tacos?

 

Lumberjack stand

 

Had some down time. Have everything completed for the incoming RLD Canopy, so had an open day. Decided to pull out the black emblems I bought about a year ago and throw them on.





I WOULD NOT do that again. I'd leave them chrome or do overlays. Not sure what was going on with the adhesives on the factory badges, but that shit was epic. Maybe a week in Vegas when the truck was parked outside in the sun in the 115 plus degree heat? Don't know. But that was some serious military grade, secret squirrel level adhesive shit going on there. What I thought would be a 1/2 hour job, turned into almost 2 hours. Fishing line, heat gun, a bottle of adhesive remover, thumbnails worn down to the nub, and a destroyed credit card later, and I got the old adhesive off and new emblems on. Fucknuts...that was way more than I thought it would be. Pleased with final product, but would not do that again.

 

OEM roof rack, install was fairly simple, and took 45 mins to install both sides. Got some 265/70/17 KO2’s and a 2”/1” lift getting installed this Thursday or Friday.
