What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Jeez everyones getting picky here. Some shade for you. Now I need to see evidence of that took a dump comment.

 

Maybe you were doing it in the woods while taking a pic. Seems legit to me

 

Oh I don’t remember if I posted my update yesterday or not but I installed the Pormido dash cam yesterday with the dongar thingy. Easy install. Only pain in the ass is the wire management for the rear cam.

I left the rear cam bracket resting on the headliner temporarily but looking to come up with something where I can have it near the third brake light or maybe rear license plate or maybe on the roof.

Still undecided but I should be able to change that up whenever I decide. I used Classy Taco’s YT video for reference but was very easy to install fa sho.

 

You kidding, I am always dumping in the woods, christ 20 times in the last couple months.

Toilets are for the weak. Try crapping here in BC when you have a few hundreds horseflies, black flies, and mosquitos circling your ass. Takes skill and speed dumping know how. I am spreading my “seed” all over BC for over 50 years now….

 

Well, after cleaning the 90 million bug carcasses from the front of my truck after driving 5200 miles, i noticed some paint chips way up front on the hood . MAN! My white paint is the thinnest shit ive ever seen, harbor freight paints tools better than Toyota paints a truck.

So i got the weather tech protector. Easy on. All my chips were right where thia thing sits now. So the chips got touch up paint, and here we are.

 

Does anyone run a wrecker/emergency lightbar on their truck? I'm outfitting a service truck and I was wondering what the best way to mount a lightbar would be.

I have one on my first gen, but I use the gutter mounts. Was hoping someone had a rack-mount/headache system.

 

TRD Skid Plate

 

Parked in garage but didn't pull in all the way. Some superficial scratches in the tailgate paint ... the backup mirror bracket took the brunt.

Proceeded to hang racket ball on a string from the ceiling as a go/no go gauge.

 

Thanks @somebody (from gar-fab). I just installed my tailgate cover. It’s a great fit and I appreciate the great communication, quick shipping to Alberta, and the excellent packaging. I’m a very happy customer!



Cheers

 

have they been on the truck for long? I peeled mine on the 2nd day of ownership, sunny 100F weather, they peeled right off not even leaving any adhesive

 

Please don't use acetone on plastic. Yes, it will clean it but dull and soften it out so fast.

 

Clear bra install full front, rear view mirror backs and door cups. Can't see it from head on and hard to see from the side........maybe that's the point? ha ha. Excellent 3M product and install by Direct Tint in Golden, CO.

 

Mine is a used 2017, bought it a month ago. Stickers ripped every half inch or so and left 80% of their residue behind... Also on a hot day. Not fun.

 

Not today exactly, but put on a coat of wax and finally got a picture. Installed the Victory rack I purchased last week from a fellow forum member and painted the stock cheese grater. I'll upgrade at some point but for now, it came out pretty well, and the march to eliminate chrome continues.

 

Painted the grill? Was it chrome or just faded? Mines a dull gray and have thought of coating with something more black. Looks like it would be difficult to prep.

 

The trim ring was chrome, the majority of it was a kind of dark tinted chrome. It really didn't look bad and I would've just painted the ring if it weren't for a few rock chips I had from road trips to AZ. They flaked off the coating and there were bright chrome spots coming through so I took it apart and painted everything but the logo/TSS.

 

Figured you'd been out west by looking at profile pic. Dont have anything like that here in Ohio..lol.

 

I thought he was talking about the A pillar black vinyl. Haven’t seen that before

 

I made a couple of pilgrimages out west last year, that was on Schnebly Hill Rd in Sedona. Made for a more interesting profile shot than my driveway

 

Glad to hear it arrived safely!
