What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Had my jack mounted, and base plate. Got sick of the base plate taking up space behind the back seat so figured this was the best spot for it, for now at least. I’ll have to see if there’s enough space for the bed rack off the front of the rail.

 

Apex quick deflate valves. These things are awesome! 35psi down to 10psi in about 12 seconds.

 

That’s funny as f@&$?!

 

post pictures when you’re done!

 

Let’s see some photos of the goods

 

New serp belt, and searched for a light clunk in the front end. Nothing stuck out. Re torqued everything from having new upper bj and coilovers rebuilt a few weeks ago. I suspect uca bushings... then some testing.

 

Threw the new to me lightbar in the grille.

 

Hell yes, I been waiting for this. Good stuff.

 

Took a trip down to OBX.

 

Thanks! I was pretty proud of it for such a quick solution. I'll take photos the next time I take it out. My more complex solution that I might do down the road is to get a 3 inch diameter PVC pipe, cut in half, and rivet ball bearings to the bottom and essentially make a sliding half circular tray inside the 4 inch PVC pipe. I think it will be an elegant solution, but just didn't have the time to make it yet.

 

What happened here, an engine swap?

 

I told Jolene she was pretty.

 

I did a thing yesterday...decided to route the stock front diff breather to the ARB unit as well

 

spicy

they dont have a 105040 listed.

They have a 10504.

Went to Oreilly and they had one but it isn’t stamped with an S.

 

That's curious. I'll try to snap a photo of the "S" later. (may be tomorrow tho)
Hopefully yours is just a newer upgrade and it will work flawlessly!

 

I assume this is the “S” you are looking for:

 

Hit 10k on the ole girl

 

DIY hybrid Front Bumper, bought from Extreme Terrain, but go direct to the original manufacturer, it'll save you $50-$150 shipped(depending on options) and give you the actual option of options, like the bull bar. Which ET shows in all their pics, but didn't actually come with it... Grrr...
I really need to buy a TIG welder, the 24yo Lincoln Electric MIG100 isn't cutting it for pretty welds... lol
