What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No city council. It’s an unincorporated town. Some of the streets just turn into sand and the county tells the residents if they want it paved they will have to hire a company and pay for it themselves.

 

So the new battery took care of the charge warning light?

 

Maybe not all of you can appreciate this but I know my fellow cyclists can. Finally got my One Up USA heavy duty double. While I can fit my 29er on its side in the long bed, any more bikes means I’m pulling front wheels. So much more convenient! Also love how it’s compact and maintains good ground clearance.

 

Yes. Looks like it did in my case.

 

I am actually leaning toward going with a Y pipe and just nuking the other one that they left behind. Lead times may prevent that though.

 

I love my 1up too! Saw that you’re in WA… Which side?

 

Thanks! Yeah taping the nut would help to keep it in place. In my case I put a little dab of lithium grease as suggested by one guy here to help the nut stay in place. I then grabbed the socket with the nut in it, aligned and pressed it against the hole to keep the nut from falling. Took the light and inserted the threaded bolt in the hole. Then started turning the socket slowly to thread the nut a couple of turns then did the other bolt the same way. Did not drop any socket but I did drop the two 10 mm nuts when I removed them. I hope the light will last forever. Cos I do not want to do this again! It looks good tho compared to the oem one IMO. And I bought it cheaper on Amazon.Ca!

 

Looks like a cockpit display. Nice!!

 

I just did mine yesterday without removing the pillars. It is indeed a major PITA! My technique IMHO is better than screwing the nut blind to the bolt. ( post # 235379) I did the “ screwing the nut blindly” to the bolt and I gave up. You can easily drop a socket and or the nut when you do this.

 

Splitting wood today.

 

That's cheating. You're supposed to do it all by hand with a wood maul.

 

Which ones did you get?

 

I put mine in the shed. I get home at 3pm and wife arrives about 5pm. I installed my TRD Skid from Prestige Toyota in NY before the wife got home.



"Was that there when you removed the air dam", wife asked? Yes it was, babe.

 

Yeah I think so. I got a set of BFG KO2'S for just under $900 bones out the door and Toyota throws in a 2 year road hazard warranty for free which many places charge extra for.

 

Nice.

 

Love mine too, the best bike rack! Are the lead times still crazy for one?

 

I work smart, not hard.

 

The west side - Bellingham!

 

Installed steps I got from @dherring256 . Thanks again man. Pleasure meeting you.

 

Awesome. Glad they are working out for you, brother.
