What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I went with Powerbass because they were the only cost effective option on Crutchfield in 2ohm.

 

Durobumps front and rear bump stops, U-bolt flip kit & Icon RXT leaf packs. I “think” the Pro build is done. Hahahaha

 

I installed the Caliraised Catalytic Converter Shield today. 3 bolts broke off on the driver’s side while I was taking them off (no, I wasn’t turning them the wrong way). I was able to extract one of them. Thankfully, it was one of the bolts where the keyed nut goes. Nothing seemed to line up right either. What should’ve taken like 30 minutes took almost 3 hours.

BUT…. They’re on.

 

I paid just over $400 cad...so about 300 usd yes.

 

The red 3rd brake light had to go.

 

Ooooh... that is nice.

Link?

 

I learned not all 2016 3rd brake lights are the same. Check if yours has external screws or not before ordering.
I used Permatex Black sealant with the foam gasket to be safe. #81158

Got this in today

 

The dog could have been a great help in the initial clean up! ;-)

 

Lol. It’s all good, parents have to clean some nasty cleaning at least once in their kids life. But damn those engineers who makes a vehicle catered around families that make a seat that channels any fluid dropped in those stow and go seats to flow deep under the carpet.

 

Clean rig man! One of my fave 3rd gen colors for sure

 

I have one of those...

 

Do you like it?

 

I am still working on the install. Maybe tomorrow.

 

ditto

no issues with it

 

Removed the dealer badge from the tailgate.
If they want their name on my truck, now, they'll have to pay me.
I'll settle with free oil changes for life.

 

Awesome job came out great might have to steal that technique i also use heat after i paint, i have noticed better durability.

 

Thanks man! Steal away! Let me know how it goes!

 

Sell it?

Halloween happened about 2 weeks after new carpet went in the house. Too many chocolate tootsie rolls went in, then out, of our 6 year old and we had that section replaced.
