What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Same here...

 

How you like the caliraised light bar?

 

got a sticker of that taco on the inside of my console coin box that i bought a couple of years ago...

 

My next episode of my DIY camper build is up on YouTube - EP:2. I made some good progress in this episode and so far, so good with the design and build. Thanks for checking it out. TbT

MillerCat Shield. Nice product. It would definitely be a time consuming PITA to steal my cats now.

 

Today I re-torqued all my front and rear suspension and slider bolts/nuts. I didn't expect much of a change but several bolts were surprisingly loose. I usually do a visual inspection pre trip and figured that was good enough. I've been wrong before.

PSA: Check your nuts.

 

I need to do this, thanks for reminding me!

I really enjoyed watching this segment of your build.
To quote @RivetNutBob “Love it when folks make their own !”

 

Yup, still have mine working like a champ. No complaints. That rear field of view is pretty cool not looking through the cab. I have my rear field of view set up where I can see the top of the tailgate/corners of the bed.

 

New direction for a project... picking up this cap today and the overland conversion build begins. Will raptor line it. In the mean time I need to remove my OVS Mamba3 and list it for sale along with my cbi bedrack.

 

I like how it looks, functions fine, plenty bright.

install on the prinsu RR is a PITA. Have to cut the front panel for it to fit. Mounting hardware at defaults points it at the sky like its for spotting aircraft. I added 3 washers to each side to get it level. The Cali Raised install video the 12 year old kid is in leaves a lot to be desired

 

That’s awesome! Had no idea they had Easter eggs in these

 

Going to do the topper lift? Forget what it’s called but it looks like an awesome setup.

That syklone adapter works great also!

 

Nah I'll be getting this one reinforced and keeping it mounted like they come stock. There's a slight risk my wife will squash the truck bed camping and demand another rtt.

 

I know you posted about your tire carrier, but how do you like that 270 awning? Is it the OVS?

 

Yes sir, I love it. It is the 270lt. I'll soon be upgrading to their full size model.

 

Finally did the MESO 3rd brake light install. My soon to be father in law and some of his friends helped me out a bit. I’ve been wanting this mod forever. It really makes the truck look unique and the lights are super bright! I was generous with the RTV because water + you can’t notice it from a few feet back. FYI I drilled out the old light because I didn’t feel like dropping the headliner from the inside. Thanks to everyone in the
Super Ultimate 3rd Brake Light Build thread for their help and knowledge.

 

Upgraded my Expedition Essentials track mount to not only provide power, but hold an UltraGauge now (DM if you want the 3D printer files to make this happen).

+ Video of the radio mount

 

A new direction for the never ending story.
Picked this up for a good price. I'll either mod it and keep it for a long time or I'll clean it up and sell it. Either way, it's a welcome change to the build. Leer DCC
