What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

@gwynn1975, truck looks great! Just got my Hefty Fabworks sliders today, and will be installing them on my 23 OR soon. Anything to watch out for, or it's just other sliders (in terms of install)?

 

I actually called Hondo and they had a few Molle plates left.. so I’m all sorted out but great idea

 

I called them and they had a few left! So I’m all good thanks for the recommendation. Anyone else who likes to setup should give them a shout while inventory lasts. Seems like it could be cool for a lot of different applications.

Toyota is running buy 3 get one for $1. Get the parts guy to quote you at cost then go to discount tire and they will meet or beat a written quote.

 

Did you need to deflate the fifth wheel to fit underneath?

 

No. The 285 fits fine underneath with the horns beat down a little bit and the hoist relocation mod. Actually needed to check it's psi since it's been a while and set it to 37.

 

Going mother effing camping for 4days time for a reset .

Cleaned and painted the gashes and scrapes in my sliders from my outing last week.

I got them powder-coated when new but the flat black spray paint/primer matches pretty well. This isn't the first time I've had to do this.




I filed the rough spots down, used some emery paper to smooth them out a little more then cleaned the damaged areas with de-natured alcohol and then applied two coats of the spray paint.

Lucky its in the mid-80's here today in Phoenix so the paint dried pretty quickly between coats. Also don't really have to worry about agressive rust since it is so dry here and we don't have winter salt on the roads here in the desert.

 

Update: Heavy 32lbs method wheels sent back. Ordered 5 very rare limited edition 17x9 wheels with -38 offset. Something very, very limited edition. Pics when they arrive. Should hopefully clear customs in week and ship shortly after. These are going to be wild with MGM.

 

What hood decal did you put on……thanks

 

It's this one

 

Is that a Pink decal ?

 

I really like the bronze/gold bumper matching the wheels. Great job!

 

Are they teal by chance, jealous.

 

GO BILLS!!!!

And to be relevant, I installed a Body Armor RTT yesterday...LOVE this! We wheel/camp a lot and this eliminates ground camping for us!

 

Waiting.

 

Those mats looks a lot easier to clean compared to the OEM mats. Nice!
