What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Made little brackets with a p clamp so my e brake line would stop chaffing on the Deaver bolts

 

Forgot to take a photo… but did the needle bearing to ECGS bushing swap today.

Best 60$ I’ve ever spent.

Also, in the event you didn’t know this, you can use promo code “TW” for free shipping. I saw that on another post here, but hey, spreading the good vibes.

I’m only lifted 2” and got the pulsing vibrations. Luckily, that is a thing of the past!

 

OHHHHH CRAP
Thanks man

 

I had a similar problem with my rear lift I ended up moving the oem bracket to the spring clamp(s) closer to the front of the springs drilled a hole then used body bolts at the hardware store. Pix coming.

 

is your driveway on an angle?

 

Nice, I did the same thing earlier this year but wanted to keep mine more subtle.

I moved my OEM guide from rear to front leaf clamp bracket thing, using existing bolts n nuts. Now theres no interference between brake cable and leaf spring.

 

I didn’t have any bolts. I’m using the same leaf’s albeit with a 2 inch block. Seeing as I wasn’t gonna go off roading much and I wasn’t gonna load anything in it over 500 lbs. I went the el cheapo way about it.

 

There is a market for this

 

Have you noticed a big difference? I'm planning on starting mine this weekend, but whatever doesn't get done will most likely have to wait until spring. Not sure if I should do the doors or start in the rear.

 

Got a link to these?

 

My OCD is flipping out here.
If you move them down a row you can center & spread them evenly. Did you use the plug & play harness from FBC Harness by @daveeasa?

Pay no attention to the color I already swapped them for the R4T ambers.

 

Ah got it. I forgot what the original leaf looked like. You got er done quite well !

 

How do you like those Deaver springs? Why did you pick these over others? I think you got 3 more leafs than I got with the OME leaf, did you get more height in the rear too?

 

Deaver Leaf Springs have 3 different stages depending on the amout of static weight you carry, all are 2" lift

 

This is a much neater job than my 15 minute, “just-slap-some-tape-on-there”; well done. I thought about applying some tape to the top of the tailgate, but not to the sides. I also didn’t think about the hood—both good ideas.

I need to revisit this mod in a few weeks.

 

I’ve noticed a difference forsure but not huge. I still need to add foam to the factory vents to try and tone it done a bit more.

 

Picked up my first RTT!
Cap It brand (local truck outfitter in western(?) Canada) that's manufacture out of the CVT/Roofnest factory. They had a great sale on and got it for just over $2900 cad with tax.

Now to get an Alu-Cab explorer on the go hopefully for spring.
