What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yup, essentially a Pro grille with bronze letters.

Part number PT2283-5220-AA

 

Your bed's interior will get unnecessarily wet like this. Get a 1/4in x 3/8in hose barb adaptor. This lets the drain tubes drain thru the pre-existing drain holes in the composite bed.

Do those throw codes?

 

Not if you get the one pictured. There are some copycat's on Ebay that do not have the "S" on them and plastic vs metal keys. Also make sure you hear it click 3 times when tightening. Got mine at O'Reilly's

 

Please let us know after you've run the locking cap in winter if you have any trouble with the lock freezing up.
I want to run a locking gas cap but I'm afraid I'll be left stuck unable to open the thing when it gets extremely cold...like the stupid tailgate lock lol

Spray a squirt of water dispersant into the key hole every so often. Product like Amsoil MP.

 

That looks great! I haven't seen a bumper like that, and that's exactly what I want, how was the install?

 

This week: Picked it up from the shop (Krave), immediate 1200km road trip, some light off roading up Grouse Mountain, towed the boat around and dunked it in the lake.

Couldn’t be happier with the final product

 

That's the setup I'm doing next Saturday!!!! Can't wait!!

 

love the black decals. i'm usually a debadge guy, but these look great

 

Why the sad face?

 

Smoked sequential side mirror turn signals. So much brighter and cooler than the OEM ones. I even like the look of them when they’re off because they blend better than the chrome ones.

 

I picked up a set of Rigid SR-L Series Spreaders from 4WP today to mount to the CBI ditch light brackets I picked up from @Naveronski last week. These are the Amber backlit rigids (12112021R) and they are not wired yet. I am waiting on parts for an aux fuse and relay setup. I plan on wiring a relay for the backlight and a relay for the forward light. Forward light will be button controlled and the backlight relay will latch when parking lights or headlights are on.

In the near term I'm going to cut the excess off the mounting bolts for the ditch lights and drill a hole in the brackets for cable management.

** 7/21/2022 Edit: I took the Rigids back to 4WP for a refund since I hadn't wired them yet. I did a bit more research and decided the spreaders were not the best lights for my use case. They are bright AF and would serve my needs in low speed off-road situations but I decided I needed both near and far capabilities for when I am in the middle of nowhere in Wyoming so I can see further into the distance to anticipate deer/elk/pronghorns crossing. Ordering a pair of diode dynamics SS3 pro ditch lights. When I go with an aftermarket rear bumper I'm going to use Rigid's spreaders with a red halo for backup lights and wire the halos (backlights) to the running lights. I am leaving this post up so users can see what the Rigid Spreaders look like.

 

Did the same a couple days ago, couldn't believe how much brighter they were! Plus they just look cooler imo

 

Don't forget all of these emotions, too, while you wait for your pick-up date (in this order, pretty much):



Seriously though, congratulations!

 

Bro, I'm going to be "that guy". Don't take offense, but your placement of the American Flag on the passenger side of the tailgate is incorrect. This link is a great reference for proper Flag etiquette. https://www.supportstore.com/etiquette.html

 

You gotta squint real hard to see it through all the dust, but 80k milestone achieved! Changed the oil yesterday at 79,987 in eager anticipation

 

I've always liked those but my opener doesn't affect my truck in the garage. More concerned with the height of the door frame opening itself. My waterport brushes the frame whenever I pull in or out.

 

Which one of those says put a blue line through the flag?
