What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Hard to tell...can't see Clark's nipple rings to compare to your truck pic.

Happy Friday, tho.

 

squeaky clean!!

 

15K service says, among other stuff, "lubricate propeller shaft". I've been under the truck a few times, there's not a single grease fitting on any part of the drive shaft, u joints, front shaft; heck there isn't even a slip yoke. I have a 2022 Pro, what am I missing?

 

haha that was actually taken before washing it

 

Would you care to give us more info about that tank, please?

 

it's a skid plate most likely, not a new tank

 

loks great!

 

Seems to have a lot of un-necessary depth for a skid plate.

 

That’s a Long Range America 33 gallon tank

My 2018 front shaft ujoint(s) has zerks. I think the newer ones stopped.

 

Doesn't locking it prevent the theft of your tailgate?

 

@InfernoTacoCO

I got the SaBellCo and also a locking gas cap with cap holder. lol

Also installed the OEM Tailgate Lock. I definitely feel better for it.

 

I believe that by 2019/2020 the driveshafts/universal joints are all unserviceable. I was under my 2020 for a good long while more than once looking and never found one. I have a 4x4 access cab 2020.. not 1 single zerk fitting.

 

I did the same ... but different. Making progress – all JBL is gone. I'm a self-proclaimed basshead, but also steadfast in maintaining a factory look as much as possible.

Current Setup:

• Headunit: Sony XAV-9500ES
• Doors: Rockford T2652-S
  
• Sub: 4
  $200 Rockford P3SD2-8 8" Dual 2-Ohm Punch Series Shallow Mount Car Subwoofer
  Rockford P3SD2-8 @ 1 ohm
• Speaker Amp: Rockford Power T600-4
• Sub Amp: Rockford R1200-1D

Still need to:

• Upgrade Rockford tweeters to something that can take a bit more power.
• Build amp rack.
• Finish sound deadening.
• Modify the back panel.

Still have some work to do back here. I was getting some crazy flapping from the vents, so I put sound treatment over and cut slits to allow air to pass. The flapping went away, and no issues closing the doors.




Did a quick soundcheck. Windows and moonroof were open. Next song to test ... New Orleans is Sinking by The Tragically Hip.

I stand corrected. Jesus that thing must weigh a ton

 

Or get an easy out kit ...

Punch and drill ...

Yes it's a PITA

If you can cut a slot for a screwdriver that's the best and quickest fix

 

Yeah I hate my front plate. And we can’t even put a smoked/tinted cover over it without running the risk of a ticket.

 

There's at least 100 of you, at least...

 

Might be time to get a new front bumper with a flip-down. Maryland introduced a new bill in 2020 for a rear plate only requirement. The outcome: Unfavorable Report by Environment and Transportation

 

Finally finished for now
