What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Anyone have part numbers or a proper part name for these? I was going to buy or salvage some for this purpose, but never got around to it… I’d looked into a while back but have since lost the #s

 

you can always pick up a new set from Bam etc. if so desired, there is also being past the point of no return in modifications ...

 

Looking good

 

Man it’s going to look good when your wheels and tires come in ! Heck looks good now

 

Paying closer than usual attention to vibes and such since the lift, tires and alignment.
Driveshaft angles are excellent now.
still felt buzzing under left foot while driving. Installed the front diff. drop and tightened LCA nuts. Loose from tire tech. driver side.
Took it for a spin....still buzzing. Let me check the uca nut......loose, from tire tech.
Buzzing gone and I'm pretty sure I'm only feeling the new beefier tire, now.
Almost pulled the trigger on some fox 2.5's yesterday.
I like that shop but damn, guys.

1st question to ask yourself when troubleshooting is,
What changed?
In my line of work, when troubleshooting, you try one thing. If it didn't work, change it back and continued down the line.
Too many variables to be changing too much at once.

 

Was it doing to it right away ? Maybe they loosened up. I know it’s recommend on some lifts to re-torque everything 700 miles or so I believe.

 

Ya. I'm pretty sure it was gradually getting stronger. The passenger side was all good. Someone forgot to snug up the driver's side, I'm thinking.
I ran across a thread last night about bad uca bushings causing vibes. They aren't bad but that thread is what got me to check.

 

Well I’m glad you got it figured out so now you can just enjoy it

 

I did the same as you, just in case they were important. It was really easy to modify them so why not?

 

Put her to work doin' some haulin' picking up a new toy.

That OTT Tune sure came in handy on this one.

 

Absolutely there is. I haven’t had to do any cutting on the truck “yet”. I want the hidden winch mount on the front so that will be the first cuts I make. I guess I’ve drilled some holes for the DMM on the dash but that’s it. Everything else is pretty reversible for me.

 

Just a simple update made recently...

Installing leather seats and ham radio mobile setup are on list of self-installs once the weather gets a bit cooler.

 

Did the 400w anytime mod, only to find out it is useless with an Eco flow power pack.... Toyotas inverters I guess are not pure sine wave... UGH

 

Where did you get the inserts? Looks good!

Either all black leather interior or clazzio covers is next on my list as well.

 

I would still be tired But seriously, it looks great! Good on you for doing it yourself.

 

Looking good! Welcome to TW!

 

Got rear ended today but it wasn’t hard and the only damage appears to be the hitch

 

That sucks! Should still get it checked out to be safe. Hopefully all is well.

 

Hopefully the hitch didn’t get tweaked or tweak anything under the truck.

Side note…I like the plate. Washington doesn’t have any plane plates, the lovely evergreen state doesn’t even have green on its standard plates. All the custom plates are designs. I really appreciate the simple plates that most states seem to offer. I know it’s dumb but it’s a pet peeve of mine.
