What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No kidding. Personally, I would go with the contrasting with black and white, but at the end of the day, it's your truck. (Another reason I went with the full blackout style for mine is that black parts are a lot easier to find than bronze parts that are all the same shade of bronze)

 

The victory one does this too. They were unhelpful and know about, but don't care to disclose this issue upfront.

I just ended up bending mine back. No windshield clearance issue with hood up.

 

That is definitely something I've thought about too. I've noticed such a variation in the rim colors that are bronze it's crazy...then you add brushed copper in there.

 

The black stuff is (in my experience) way more predictable and reliable with uniformity than the other colors. I just didn't want to have to try to track down stuff that all matches, and then deal with returning/exchanging stuff that wasn't the right match, but I'm also just a lazy bastard who likes how things look murdered out a little too much.

 

I'm the exact same way. I'd probably put it on knowing it doesn't match then complain and obsess about it until I replaced it all, I'll really have to consider going with black rims.

 

Definitely keep me posted with what you end up going with! Whether you go with bronze or black, I'm just happy that someone else is finally getting method rims!!

 

Will do! I've been looking at them or the SCS Ray 10's but those seem hard to get and pretty pricey! A buddy of mine is also looking at getting some methods down the road.

 

Haha, no sir no issues. I usually split them and keep the poles below cab height so no low hanging trees yank out my guides lol

only one that stayed within my iCloud unfortunately

 

Threw the cover on. 5 to 8” of snow / ice between tonight and Friday. I work from home so I don’t expect to go anywhere in between. I only snag the single car garage when my girls family is out of town. When I own a house (someday) a garage is a requirement!

 

Don't stress over the antenna, it is vertical enough to function just fine. I do see your point though, the new mount should be way more vertical than that.

 

I see 2x options.
1. park on an incline. 2. Drive fast.

 

3. Always drive uphill

 

There's two kinds of people in this world:

 

I installed Sokie Tech hood struts...
The driver's side bolt that holds the OEM grounding wires decided to break off so that was fun

 

Nothing a little rake adjustment won't fix.

 

How long was this installed before it broke?

 

I installed a wireless charging dock that is, well, meh... but it works and saves the need for cables so whatever. Fast charging does not want to work and it constantly says "wireless charging paused" when I'm driving but I think I can figure out how to fix that eventually.

I also installed the Rav-4 Knobs. I find it kind of dumb the tune/scroll button has a tactile feel to it but the volume/power button does not. I think most people would have been happy with the stock knobs if there was a tactile feel to it. Either way, I got them and they are better, but still the same issue of lag/delay and lack of feeling in them.

I ordered 2 and they sent me 3, so if you want one for free just PM me and I'll ship it out to you. *EDIT aaaaaand it's gone. No longer available.

 

I considered just bending it in a vice. Will be at least 2 bends, by which I mean, at least 10 trips to the vice, re/re, etc. Looks like a 6 beer job.

This is what I keep telling my wife.

And this is what she keeps saying.

Genius. I will just take this ramp with me everywhere I go!

I called Elka Suspension to see if they can supply a coilover spring for the passenger front that will provide a 203 mm lift.

 

I just one bend, but I would still keep it a 6 beer job.
