What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

“Fall cleaning” (Michigan winter prep): full detail in & out, vac’d, washed, and hand-wax’d with Meguiar’s Gold Class Plus, Rain-X’d windows and mirrors.

 

Do you guys undercoat in Michigan too? FF on sale at NAPA at least regionally in the northeast right now

 

Absolutely, Michigan naturally has an unlimited abundance of salt, so we just blast the roads with corrosives. Annual prep is a must for longevity. Good call on Napa, I’ll check it out!

 

it is absolutely not available in all states. for bi some states only offer uim and in a lot of states there is no um/uim pd.

 

you gonna rally the truck?

looks awesome

 

someone said treat15 got them another 15% off their order. didnt work for me tho

 

Installed my Redline Runing Quicklift Plus and installed the Amazon-fake skid plate. Both simple installs.

 

It's a shake, not a noise, feels like out of balance wheels except they've been balanced. I ran around it with a torque wrench and lugs seem tight. Not sure what else to do, it's a 60-70mph high speed vibration you can feel in the steering wheel and seat.

 

Took the Taco and camper out and spent the week deer hunting.

 

This just arrived today. Now I’ll be ready for my first oil change.

 

How many miles you got?

oh Damn, you paid $60!!!!!????

 

..bought it a while ago, I saw that when I copied the link. Comes with one for each side. I don't remember paying that much.

 

Lol, just broke 2,000 miles. I have a ways to go but figured I’d get the tools ready to do it. I’m not using the free oil changes, I don’t trust anyone else to do them. I’ll probably do the first one around 5,000 miles.

 

Im with the same mindset. I have 3700 miles on mine right now and slowly gather tools to do my own oil changes as well: bought the oil, will be buying a fumoto valve and the same wrench you got.

 

Wish these were still available.

 

Today I mounted my Hi-Lift Jack on the shelves I installed in the bed.






I located recovery gear under the Hi-Lift so it doesn't move unless I remove the jack.

 

Today, I FINALLY replaced those hideous chrome accented tail lights, with proper TRD pro tail light assemblies. While I was in there, I added the MESO Customs Stage 1 tail light set.

Next, I removed some more chrome by installing the MESO Customs V5 Switchback mirror signals, set to reverse sequential to match the factory headlights.

Finally, I added the AC Drain Kit mod from @Vorra65 .

This truck is getting closer and closer to a more perfect version of my ‘18. Only a Mountain Hatch tail gate insert, pro grille & garnish, and Baja Designs Amber Squadrons to do, and I’ll be happy…for a minute.

 

Exterior chrome annihilation nearly complete.
Bumper shells fit like a champ and only took about 15 min to install for a doofus like me.

edit: got them from https://www.ecoological.com/

 

Where did you get the color matched caps?
