What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Slapped on the rear Fox Elite shocks. Only annoying part is they have you use “self tapping screws” to mount the rear reservoir brackets….like really bro. I’ll change them out for a nut/bolt. Super pleased with the way these ride and the quality. Lets see how they do long term!

 

Looks great but would look even better without that upside down G sticker.

 

Thanks, form lighting tail lights. Sun on me now.. I will light them up later if you want.

 

Yeah, if you don’t mind. Curious how bright they are in sunlight too.

Any moisture issues?

 

I wonder what would happen if I removed the bolts holding down the driver seat and then went off-roading ...

 

No moisture issues so far. Had them maybe 6 months or more. Can't remember. Smoked lenses but light up good. Their website has a good video of light up sequence. Getting closer to total chrome delete.

 

Looks really good. Bummer they aren’t on sale anymore lol.

 

Think they were about 5 bills... this damned forum has helped me spend a lot $$$$

 

They will go on sell around Christmas.

 

Whatever happened to "personal responsibility"? <heavy sigh>

 

It got shot to hell when I discovered this forum lol

 

Sure, it's just plywood and styrofoam props. But in the instant that you looked at the picture, for a split second, you actually squinted because you felt their pain. And you -believed- that the other starship had their high beams on.

 

I commute 1hr home from work with the sun at my back. Brake lights light up pretty good too. Haven't been rear-ended yet. Knock on wood..

 

Did you have any issues with the application, like creases or bubbles or even alignment? Getting ready to do mine and am curious of any obstacles I may be facing.

 

I have Pro Tails with the Meso Total tail conversion. I’m telling myself I don’t need them lol

 

I agree, Thanks. The Alcoa, TN. DT is a top notch outfit. Will be back in the spring for summer tires on my stock wheels. Or new wheels and different tires, and save the MT's for the next winter.

 

None what so ever. Measured twice applied once, made sure it was where I wanted and then I couldn't find my plastic piece to go over the decal so I broke an old plastic spatula and used the head to make sure there were no bubbles or creases.

 

I just went with the Rough Country intake. It's only $150 and it was noticeably more vocal when accelerating, and it seems to have a slightly better response? (that could be placebo effect because it sounds like it). Any increase in HP would be negligible, but the air flow has definitely improved.

 

Bed lights installed with an oem cargo switch. You might say big deal. But I have an SR5 access cab circa 2019. Access cabs have no third brake light cargo lamp, no oem switch and no relay for said switch.
Thankfully with the help of a few here on this forum I was able to get everything working and a few YouTube vids didn’t hurt.

 

I used the "wet method" when I applied mine. I know some people have been able to apply theirs dry but I've found applying decals wet is much forgiving, in that it allows for minor movement of the decal before "setting" it in place.
