What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Almost crashed my junk because of a wheel cylinder blowing out, so ordered some disks.

 

What tire size are you running? Looks great!

 

I installed the 2wd low mod this weekend. - I also routed the related switch to my overhead panel which had no spare slots. (Fortunately, I had installed the custom 3 switch overhead switch panel previously for that purpose.)

I did that - plus the puddle pods’ installation, the dash tweeters, door speakers and installed a custom driver side switch panel to accommodate some more switches

- all in one sitting.


well, I actually finished this morning!

It took a while…

My fingers and hands are sore from pressing all those harness clip tabs and dealing with all those wires.


The whole process was not bad - just a lot to do at once.

The toughest part was the organizing of all the stuff going into / living inside the driver’s side A pillar. I had a lot of wiring in there already and there are some large harness fittings that needed to live there (for the puddle pods).

I had my fingers crossed so that stuff would actually work once the power went back on.

trouble shooting would have been a b*tch… this is why it is best to do one thing at a time…

I’m happy to report that everything seems to be working properly- what are the odds!

 

Photos or it didn’t happen lol. Awesome work. I need to get going on the 2 low mod along with the 400w anytime mod and adding an outlet to the back of my center console.

 

It's a full kit. Comes with every hardware you need to complete the job. I mentioned the brand, these are from Hellwig.

 

It's ok, there's a bit of sqeaky noise, it can go away with a bit of grease.
As for the anti-sway effectiveness, if you got Bigger tires and wheels like I do, then their effectiveness is less(er), and you got to go full firm setting.
I'm on 33s and 17" SCS wheels. Right now, the roll is mitigated some, but not enough (for me). I'm not happy about that. Hellwig likely made the sway bars considering for stock vehicle.
I didn't buy front and waste money on that. The stock front sway bar is pretty beefy and very strongly built.

The other one is not yet bolted yet in that picture. Only one was connected. Took picture mid work. Sorry.

 

Why is it that the drop link is in the middle hole on the drivers side and the back hole on the passenger side, are they not supposed to match?

 

Did you use 5/8" hose?

 

I've answered it elsewhere. Picture was taken mid install. The passenger side link is not yet connected in the picture. I took picture before install was completed, it was one among many pictures.

 

That’s really nice!

 

Puddle pods fit with your cameras?

 

yes - they install in a different spot on the mirrors. - They go just inside the camera location.

 

Painting the ghetto alucab.
Made a temp stand with cedar logs I had laying around.

 

Slowly making changes. Installed the sequential side mirror turn signals. A little bit more of the exterior chrome removed.

Big stuff still remains: OF OEM headlights, taillights and rims still have shiny stuff.

 

Tired of all the dirt in my bed so I installed a couple products and made a video about it.

 

Detailed, claybar, polished.

 

Not the OP, but I ordered an SSO Plate Bumper on Feb 3, and I am expecting delivery of it this week.
