What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I don’t recall seeing anything in the options. I would call them and ask. I know the transfer case skid has an option for the exhaust reroute.

 

Piece of cake to do. Not expensive like you said, especially since it isn't an ARB. The only concern I watch for is the nylon hold down strap, that runs close to the compressor head, being melted. But so far it hasn't!
Also just realized the tank photo is older too. I now have metal zip-tires holding it in place. Tank is a discarded DC-9 crew oxygen bottle (free). Will hold over 3000 psi, so my 120 psi cut-off should be with-in limits. lol

 

The RCI steel front engine skid with black powder coating is only $325.

 

Just had the new wheels installed the week prior and they rotated the tires when they mounted them on the new wheels. I need to clean that off, thanks for the reminder!

 

Question for anyone running 33’s or (285/75/16) in my case. If you do a viper cut can you run spidertrax wheel spacers and be okay without a CMC? Have king 2.5s on as well..

 

That sounds easier, did you roll in underneath backwards with your feet sticking out the front end ? also what is the jack holding up in the picture?

 

Off-road or on road, i like the RCI plate better, plus it is black.

 

Depending on the situation...that looks like a good way to get yourself shot if you get pulled over.

 

Yeah, it bolts right up. Nice solid piece.

 

Yes, that is exactly what I did.
The jack is under the centre cross member as a safety precaution. Although I trust the Rhino Ramps holding up the front end you can never be too safe.

I didn’t have ramps so I just jacked it up and put it on jack stands but it’s definitely worth it to get that extra height. I just got the front two bolts barely started, then rear, the middle ones lined right up. I will probably add the RCI aluminum trans skid later.

 

Did you figure out the dome light setup? Where did you run the wire into to cabin or engine bay?

Thanks!

 

Appreciate the heads-up for that situation. I guess I'll just have to be quick with my hat to cover it before Johnny Law gets to my window.

 

Your taste in wheels is top notch. Kudos.

• Diode Dynamics LED map and dome lights
• Rear VLED LED footwell kit (not 100% in love with my install, but given the limitations of my truck I'm pleased)
• (crosses fingers) Solved my amp wiring issue

It's now 70° out so I'm going to get it cleaned up and hopefully enjoy the rest of the afternoon.

 

I was curious about this as there seems to be this simple and affordable solution. However, I'm not sure how real the problem is?

Would an EMP Attack Disable all Vehicles?
No, an EMP attack would not disable all vehicles. According to a study conducted by the United States EMP Commission, only about 1 out of 50 vehicles are likely to be rendered inoperable. The effects of an EMP on hybrid and electric vehicles, however, have yet to be studied and is currently unknown.

 

I have the same setup minus the viper cut. You will be okay on road but if you go off roading a lot will want the CMC. I have been looking at doing the viper cut as well.

 

Isn't that an HPA tank? How much pressure are you running in your system?

I just did a viper cut on mine, just for looks, but already had the CMC done. I have the 1.25" spacers and the 285/75/16's too. I suppose (read as I don't know) you could move castor forward disproportionately to avoid the mount? You'd have to ask an alignment guy. But that said, getting the chop done is pretty simple and affordable.
