What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Best drive I ever got to take. That car is beyond ludicrous.

 

Congratulations on the sinus infection green, err um, I mean lime green metallic. It's definitely unique!

 

I agree with the shop, once they are not against the tabs, its easier to knock the alignment off. It might not be too bad if you stay on pavement, but if you do off road it's almost guaranteed you'll knock it out of alignment. Mine look terrible. I have cams that have bent/gone over the tabs. I cant wait to get my hands on the TC mounts. Also thinking about the Taco Tabs to set it and forget it. It's on the list.

 

Any rattling from the hitch step?

 

For a DV8 center bumper that aluminum bar gets removed and frankly the new bumper offers more protection than that bar. The dv8 video left a little to be desired. When removing the front bumper on a 2022 dont pry it off. Reach up inside the wheel well and push the tabs. You wont break any like I did.

 

Don't know why... but that picture with no bumper made me think of this guy.

DV8 looks great-

 

Johnny 5 is alive!!!

 

My son-in-law suggested "52s". They are cool lookin'!

I have time to think about which direction I go with new wheels/tires.

New shoe day today - SCS Ray10’s with 265/75r16 KO2’s

 

Looking good! Let us know how the KO2’s do in the snow. I have the same size KO2’s but no snow here. Just curious in case I ever want to head up to Tahoe.

 

Thank you sir!

 

I was actually pleasantly surprised! I was fully prepared to be a bit underwhelmed about the snow performance after hearing some complaints, but they did great in the really wet/slippery stuff we got here in PA recently. I wouldn’t hesitate taking your rig out to Tahoe..

 

I saw one parked on the street the other day in Morro bay. Should’ve snapped a pic but I’m just not that kind of person.

 

Nothing in the fifteen52 catalog that is not worth 3 nights on the couch. I'll just tell her my life is ending one minute at a time, she will understand someday.

 

I saw on some Jeeps they were using skid plates made with Delrin. Hard but slick to let them slide over rocks. It was laminated to either AL or steel skid plates.

 

I had the Cat Security plate installed on my taco today. I had to have a local shop doing because I lacked the tools to drill into the truck (I thought I bought the no drill plate, but oh well). I know this isn't a 100% guarantee that the catalytic converter won't be stolen, but it should be a great deterrent.

Here's the results:

 

Gave the blue mechanical mistress a tall glass of top shelf Kroger fuel (which made me cringe).

Also changed out my @MESO gasshole for another @MESO gasshole (V1 vs. V2).

If you want a V1, it'll be listed for sale.

 

Got a link in this catch can? Is it specifically for taco? If not, got tips for install? TIA.

 

Never mind. Just found it.

 

Can you post a link to those? I looked for some on their sight for a 2017 and didn't see any.
