What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Good one!

 

Picked up some new tire holder things

 

Are those bead-locks? Kind of hard to tell from the pic. Those look awesome!

 

maybe you missed teh rest of the convo but... some definitely fall off. i heard people talking about before i put mine up and it happens to me as well.

 

Yes sir! Pretty stoked to find the deal I did on these wheels. 26lbs for a beadlock, 6 lbs lighter than my current fakelocks, ill take it!

 

That’s basically the same weight as the stock off-road wheels if I’m not mistaken. That’s friggin amazing! One day I’ll get some, just have to be careful here since they’re illegal in Cali.

 

Atleast thats what online spec sheets claim, I'll weigh them before mounting. And nothings illegal if they are "fake"

 

None have fallen off yet.

 

Wait why would beadlocks be illegal in Cali?

known to the state to cause cancer?

 

The grill badge? It doesn’t fit well but I just tinkered with the location until it stuck. I was concerned it would come loose but it’s been about 8,000 miles and multiple washes and seems to be solid still. I’ll try to get some pics and send them to you!

 

Because if not torqued down on regular basis they could potentially separate from the wheel at freeway speed, or so the theory goes. IMHO a lot of things have the potential to separate at freeway speed on a lot vehicles in Cali. It’s mainly the highway patrol that ticket from what I understand.

 

I second that. None of mine have fallen off in over a year and I take it off-road every chance I get.

 

Something like this?

 

Exactly like that! It’s just finding a break in the rain here in Washington to get it put on!

 

Good luck on that one. I am pretty sick of the weather so far. Lol but as you know it will get better.

 

Yeah I know whatcha mean! I’m hoping for some sun soon, I’m over these spring showers.

 

I remember summer and the end of rain season began the 5th of July in Portland..

 

Yep same here. ^^

 

Yeah that’s typical here…rains the 4th and beautiful the 5th

 

i did this to my truck...
