What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got a free brand new set of 265/75/16 KO2's today. They're going on the Taco tomorrow!

Buddy of mine bought them last month for a truck his kid had, but he traded it in.

I also got a set of wheels out of the deal, but not sure if I like them or not.

 

I fill up a wash bucket with warm soapy water at my house before I head to the DIY carwash and wash by hand. Then I only have to use the sprayer for the initial spray down and rinsing. It's generally about $5 that way.

 

That's what I normally do. it's $3/5minutes. normally it's spray, clean, spray. this time I needed extra spray time for the caked on mud.

 

There's something oddly satisfying spraying off mud.

 

got mine today but the MIL says Santa won't let me open until Christmas...

 

Yea, kinda reminds you of a bidet.

 

Last night I went and aimed all of the lights in my bumper. Really happy with output and spread of illumination. Didn't get any pictures so I'll post pictures of the bumper again.

 

Where is that mounted

 

I’m about to do the auto lock and order these or the redline ones. So it’s a pretty easy install?

 

In the bed...................

 

Finally finished the stock audio system upgrade this weekend. Sound deadened the cab and doors throughout with extra sound deadening in the doors and where the powered subwoofer is mounted. I went with JL Audi component speakers up front and Infinity coaxial speakers for the rear doors. Also installed a Kenwood 8 inch powered subwoofer in the back.

All my hard did not disappoint. This made a huge difference in overall ride quality and the audio system no longer sounds flat and washed out.

 

also concerns me they use the ground bolt

 

Yeah they have instructions on their site. Might follow it to look at mine because mine squeak bad, but messing with the airbag scares me

 

Did you upgrade your bulbs?

 

Merry Christmas to me! Originally expected “late December / early January” so not super early but at least I have a better idea now

 

Yeah I don’t think they look good also, but the red lights is a nice feature

 

Leave no trace

 

Another option is SokieTech on EBay.

 

That grille is the best!

 

I Just started doing this last year as our common car washing bay gets shut down at the end of October. Our local DIY wash bays are always very busy and have “no bucket washing” signs everywhere. I find I have to go late at night when there is usually no one around. This is the only way I find to really get the truck clean during winter.
