What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Hey fellas, I'm having an intermittent issue with my key fob and door handle touch-pad not locking my truck. i have replaced batteries in both fobs and nothing has changed. The truck battery was replaced about 1 month ago.

Any thoughts?

 

Tinted my front windows today.... yeah that ended up terrible... Its like 100 degrees and humid out, I made some bad cuts and now the tint is missing on some places. But I dont really care right now, I just wanted to get something on there for a 5 hour road trip this weekend.

 

Did you check your owners manual for fob sync-ing instructions?

 

Took some progress pics, also mounted my Hi-Lift jack in the bed now that I made some room by removing my Decked system.

 

Finally installed the Redline Tuning quick lift elite kit yesterday.
Didn't take too long. Pretty simple install.

 

Hi, welcome to TW. Must be a new owner? Nice color same color as my wife's rig.

 

I've got a buddy who makes an adapter for the syklone pre-filter for your afraid. @AdrenaliNate

 

They actually have one in stock.

damn i have a shovel on the other side blocking that one lol

 

Awesome looking truck man!

 

Swapped my 47k Duratracs for Wildpeaks. $740 with alignment.

Loved those tires but they were way too loud and ended up causing vibrations. I could feel every knuckle hitting the pavement.

 

Swapped out my bed side decal for one in matte black. Getting the adhesive off from the original decal is a giant pain in the ass.

 

what a beautiful truck. Well done sir.

 

Just beware those emblems will burn into your paint if you live in the sun

What. What. What burns into your pain? I want to do this mod but I need some clarity on this, I live in Florida, am I at risk?

 

haha “PAINT”. Sorry bud.

it’s like when women put a heart sticker on and go into the tanning booth. The underneath of those stickers will show up for years after you take them off

 

Finished my custom dual battery setup. The battery tray is from Slee — it has a side support bracket to help distribute the weight of the two batteries. From what I understand it’s a cure for the cracking that happens there.

Outside of the tray everything is fully custom. The setup utilizes an over-the-tie-down bracket for modular Bussmann fuse holders. They are rated up to 400A each! It’s a very clean solution for higher-amperage distribution since you can get bussbars for them and just utilize a single feeder cable on both batteries.



The brains of the operation is a RedArc BCDC 1220. I mounted it on the passenger side utilizing some un-used threaded holes.


Project took a couple of days, but I was crimping each cable myself and taking my time to make sure I didn’t blow myself up. Glad to have that done.

Rides better than stock imo. Was nervous about going 886 with no armor in front but it really feels more stable now

 

Haha so you're suggesting I get the original off quickly so it doesn't leave a mark?

 

Like a Boss. Looks great!

Do I see a little interference between brake cable and leaf spring?
