What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Absolutely. Just remind me haha. So far the quality is really good and I’m very pleased. My only complaint is that they should’ve made the child car seat anchor cut outs bigger

 

I had Discount Tire swap my E-load DuraTracs for C load.

 

Ohboyohboyohboy they finally showed! I’m gonna have a fun weekend

 

Took it in for the 5,000 mile service. Told them I wanted the oil and filter changed as well. Tech just called it the 10,000 mile service (even though the ODO reads 4,932 which they listed on the service ticket) and didn't charge me.

 

Got fed up with the rattle from the dash so I decided to finally tackle it. Quite simple and you DON’T have to remove the tweeter grille or a-pillar. Just have to remove the stupid clip. I made a quick video of before and after. Hope this helps!

Split Bed platform so I can slide it over and stack gear enroute and slide it back to a full-size bed size.

 

Iteration 4.0

4th time changing the build since I bought it in June 21

 

Why the stage 1 over the stage 2?

 

The rebound is different, feels a smidge firmed up on the road. Just a slight difference, it will be nice with a loaded bed, or cap like you have. Super easy install.

 

Do you have an offset on these wheels? Any rubbing?

 

That is awesome! Living the dream!

 

Nice! Got a link?

 

FOMO…
Installed seat jackers. Surprised at the improvement in comfort from such a simple mod.

 

Get the covers from ecoologic. They can do the sensor holes (or not, depending on you rig). I got the textured ones and they match the stock plastic bumper well.

I got these before the stage 2 came out and I finally put them on.

 

Upgraded some audio and some knobs

 

Got some LB rock sliders but need to paint them before installing. What kind of paint would be best for sliders?

 

If you know your gonna beat them up I’d say just a rattle can job. Mine are done with satin black rattle can. After every couple outings easy to touch up.

 

Yeah I was going to rattle can them for sure. I wasn’t sure if there was a better kind of paint to use or just any black rattle can.

 

@Cappy @OffroadJet not sure if anyone answered this but having the TRD and watching videos about the diff drop…. you might be able to use the TRD skid by replacing the bolts and spacers to different longer ones.

There is minimal to no clearance above the the TRD skid to accommodate the lowered diff. Back of the TRD bolts flush against the frame cross member under the trans bell.

Middle and front bolts of the TRD skid use bolt spacers (metal tube) between the skid and frame. The longer the bolts and spacers the more susceptible it would be to damage if you’re actually using the skid off-road. Also adding spacers means the rear of the skid could potentially become a big dirt scoop hindering ability to back up when off-road
