What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

See if the aluminum blocks fit in the bed rails. May be some type of hangers for the bed rails.

 

Just did, they do. Now I have to figure out a use for them.

 

Mail 'em to MD for $20? Lol

 

They may have been clamps for a bed cover or camper shell.

 

Traction board mounts?

 

Ditch the leveling kit and get a proper lift. I made the same mistake. Truck felt terrible with just leveling blocks.

 

Those square die cutouts are begging for carriage bolts.

 

The aluminum blocks look like 5020 extrusion connectors.

 

I did the cheaper route. Rubber horse matt from tractor supply. $50, and a little trimming and it fit nicely.

 

I used to keep one of those lithium portable chargers in the vehicle, especially if going out of town. I had a Gooloo that I used 8 times to jump a Highlander whenever I needed to head to the store until I finally had enough and replaced the battery. All of that jump starting probably took a toll on the Gooloo or something as it barely holds a charge now but it served me good the times it did work.

 

Been a busy month. Most of my exterior parts I had to peel off my totaled 2018. Luckily i didnt install the suspension build that i had been buying piece by piece for the last 5 years. I am blessed to have found a unicorn access. To be more precise, it was the only one on the ground within an 800 mile radius in my time crunch as i was moving 2k miles west. Total added items

Still tons to do just a little dry on funds. Any good labor day sales on an rtt?

 

Nothing fun.

Going to the dealer for its 15000 miles service.

 

What does the backside of this look like? Drill the base of cone, washer behind the grill with a screw into the cone?

Adding a center light, activated by a flip switch (labeled "SSM") in the cab, that turns on red for about 3 seconds then changes to green? Target acquired!!!

 

Now you just need to take care of that corrugated tailgate cover. This one worked for me.

oooooooh tire rotation

 

On a different note, I received your license plate bracket and should have it installed later this week. I'll put some pictures of it in this thread. Away from home at the moment, but can't wait to get it on the truck and see the difference it makes.

 

What net is that on top? I like how it hugs the roof. The one I have sags bad once you put anything in it.

 

Just ordered/bought some Method Racing wheels to go with the lift instead of running the stock wheels and 33’s. Also some flush method center caps. Looks like I’ll be running around for a few days with the stock wheels and tires after the lift until the wheels come in

 

Get the thinner barn mat for your tailgate, it butts up to the plastic tail gate over hang on top, and you can use the upper screws to tighten it down, makes kneeling on it so much easier

 

to all the fellas referencing the ds18 tweeters. are these direct plug and play & and improvement if you have the oem jbl premium stuff? or is it only for non-jbl
