What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

sun visor bolts are burning my retinas

 

Installed new wheels and tires. Konig Countersteer X 17x8 -10 with 275/70/17 BFG KO2.

 

Got my 17" FJ steelies back from the powder coater on Monday and made it down to America's Tire this afternoon to have them fitted. Steelies completely transformed the look of the truck, especially with the color I went with. Big thanks to @Camerasandcoffee for inspo photos and details on his setup!

Added some colors and carbon to hide another chrome. TVDvinyls.

 

Nothing that day. Still a relaxing day with the family.

 

who makes these? Any effect on headroom?

 

What brand topper is that? Do you like it?

 

Thanks for this. However, lots of companies still show it on their website and they all "ship from manufacturer." CBI says they don't make it anymore.

I'm selling my push bar to a buddy and picking up a new covert front bumper for a good price from a member on here on Sunday.

 

RENO makes them, I got them off Amazon, I only lifted the front, so it kinda makes you lean back. I didnt notice any problems with head room.

Nah...........It was never chrome. its silver like the steering wheel, door and main dash trim. I dont mind the silver at all, and actually prefer it to the 4V6 in spots like the steering wheel trim, cup holder and huge center dash trim. Since there is a lot of silver OEM, keeping it in spots like the cup holder, door and steering wheel brings the whole interior package together IMHO.

Color trim looks good on some parts on the interior but begins to looks a bit goofy to me when it starts to appear in larger portions.
When buying the chrome delete package I intentionally left out the steering wheel trim, steering wheel center overlay, and cup holder.
Honestly, I probably would have left out the climate control rings too since they were silver as well, but unlike the other parts for whatever reason I couldnt leave those out of the order.

 

Bingo! I honestly did not even think about doing anything with the interior when I bought my truck. As soon as it got here back in Feb, I didnt think about it either...............
Then I started reading posts on TW. THEN I started noticing all the "plasticized" chrome pieces all over the interior. It really didnt bother me up to that point, then after the plastic chrome parts are all I noticed.

 

I must be an outlier, I think the shiny bits on the interior are tastefully done

 

Dang those lights look slick. What set up did you use for the lights in the rails on the soft topper ?

 

Not much and very hooah but it’s a start lol

Yes I’m an MP now but I used to be a Combat Engineer

 

the gang at the thread below would be thrilled for you to share your collection

Morale Patches

 

What you need is this patch (just like the one I earned many years ago - back when the black beret was earned, not issued):

 

Thank you! I figured there was a patches thread lol

 

Kudos to you for actually being in a Ranger battalion and not just have the tab from passing the school lol But ideally I'd rather be a Sapper ( could never though)

 

Thanks! It’s the Matt Gecko kit for bed rails and Softopper. I just disassembled the Softopper rails so I could slide on heat shrink as well to help the 3M tape out.
