What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

The style of the black case looks sick, but that black case in cement would be sicker.

 

Rebuilt some new to me upper control arms.

 

Looks right

 

These are better than the bf's

 

Put on some 5100s with 888s and icon add a leaf.
Sadly, somehow and not exactly sure how, i poked a hole in the CV boot on the driver side.
the rest of the install was great. Drives nice on my limited test drive. now I gotta get that boot fixed.

 

Installed my N2 remote start this weekend. I go the one with the smart phone module. It works great.

 

Install a rear driving camera over the weekend. Also started the sound deadening process in preparation for the speaker upgrades this week.

 

Decided to 3D print some covers to hide my wires for my roof rack.

 

FAIL....PSA, do not use the factory mounting brackets for a hitch, I used mine Saturday and they bent. I can't imagine putting a winch in the hitch and trying to pull the truck out.



I noticed it looked like the rack was sagging after hauling the deer. The hitch was up against the plastic.




The brackets on the truck bent. Look closely. Time to redo them.

 

damn, solid!

 

Thanks! We appreciate the opportunity on the cover!

 

lets see the Install

 

285s - now to fix the slight rub.

 

Early morning delivery!

 

Put 265/70/17 on mine and have a slight rub also in reverse only. Shouldn't it rub going forward too? It makes no sense to me and I'm basically afraid to ask why because it's probably a simple answer.

 

When I put 265/70/17 before I got my lift/alignment I also slightly rubbed. Some minor trimming and heat gunner the liners helped. What ultimately fixed it though was an alignment.

 

Mine was lifted at the same time and aligned but still rubs. Maybe I should ask about a realignment when I go in the next time. I've also made zero effort to find out what it's rubbing on so maybe I should look and try a little adjustment.

 

Thats what lots of people are telling me. Will see.....

 

Think about how your body moves when you quickly accelerate forward. You stick to your seat. If you reverse quickly, your body pulls away from the seat.

think about this idea in terms of your trucks body and components. Something on your truck is pulling toward your tires when you reverse that is normally pulling away in drive.

 

Conditioned my seats with Meguiar's leather Conditioner.
