What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I looked again and saw that you have 17” wheels. That must be the 340mm kit (13.4”).

 

Well I was going to venture out. But then I realized there’s no deals out their anyways.

 

I hear you, I was saying it would be sweet if one of these dudes would just feel like being nice and fix it for your for free. Hope so!

 

I picked up a free bed mat this morning- well worth the 45 min drive! It’s for a 6’ bed so I’ll just chop off the front end. Good to go!

 

Started on a new front bumper last night

 

I dig it!

 

The more I think about it the more I want yet another dewalt tool. Lol.

 

Nice win.

 

Hey @TacoYankee we finally got a power tray designed for the Auxbeam AR800. We only have the digital renderings right now on the website because we wanted to be able to include it in our Black Friday sale. But we should have them back from waterjet in about two weeks. It's designed to mount the Auxbeam AR 800 as well as a Blue Sea 6 circuit fuse block. Take a look here and let me know if you have any other questions!

Recieved a delivery, @jeffmansion is stepping into the 285 75 16 game very soon. 16x8 0 offset rims and a 2.7 MT. Lets go.

Picked up my new wheels and tires today TRD Black Gloss 17”. Tires are 265x70x17s

 

Finally installed the coin holder in the centre console. Had to drill a hole to accommodate LED.

 

Awesome

 

A decal to cover a dent...



...and one more (for the sake of some symmetry)

 

Where do you mount the breaker?

 

Brought home a new 7000lb dump trailer.

 

So I ended up selling my 2021 trd off road premium when the market was hot. Made 10k over what I had paid initially. Ordered a 2023 TRD sport premium DCLB.

Got it last week and recently put bilstein 5100 set on the second clip (got me around 3/4 of a lift) with 265/70/17 wildpeak P rated. No rub with air dam and splash guards.

Comparing the short bed to the long bed, that extra bit of room makes a difference. I loved my DCSB don’t get me wrong, better off road capability etc. But I'm enjoying the 6 foot bed a little more.

 

We try not to put the circuit breakers on the tray itself because circuit protection, whether it be a fuse or breaker, should be mounted as close to the source as possible to minimize the amount of unprotected battery cable. When you mount a circuit breaker on the tray you'll have about 2 feet of unprotected cable. So you should find a place as close to the positive battery terminal as possible for your circuit breaker unless you're planning on running a fuse as well as the circuit breaker. But that's kind of redundant and the circuit breaker really just becomes a glorified on/off switch.

The best solution, and what we do, is to use our circuit breaker’s because the one that comes with the Auxbeam feels cheap and didn't leave me with much confidence considering how important circuit protection is. Then we mount them right on the top of the battery using our dual circuit breaker battery tie-down. But I understand that not everyone wants to spend the extra money so I'd recommend mounting the circuit breaker on your fuse block cover right next to the positive battery terminal.
