What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Did you at least get some venison out of the deal?

 

Hah!
Glad car is back !
Think you should strap those spare tires onto the doors…you know, deer bumper guards

 

Considering I'm at 144000klms on the original plugs, paying that much for another 6 years of driving seems reasonable.

 

You should check them. All 3 passenger side were loose and a couple on the driver side too. My passenger side plugs weren't even finger tight. I changed them at 18k (truck was about 7 years old at the time).

 

Just put on my new tags. Comiefornia rapes us every year.

 

Your right. I'm past due for sure. On my list for this spring.

 

At least you get the nice weather.

 

Lol..it's the last thing left... High gas, everything is taxed, 2A under attack.

 

I left many years ago. Some things I miss, some things I don't.

 

I’ve had the 1320 bed stiffeners for over a year now and really like them!

 

Thanks, I know I'll be happy once they are on. I have an 8 year old slobber monster german shep/husky mix. The dog hair isn't the issue with him, it's the snotty nose and slobber head shakes causing me to constantly try to clean cloth seats that pushed me to get clazzios for easier cleaning lol. He's cute, but $600 cute is up for debate

 

I'm at 107,500 miles so I thought it would be a good time to change the spark plugs (before it gets too hot and humid here in Florida). Wow what a job it was on the driver's side bank but, at 72, I got it done. Sore as hell this morning however. Did the plug change make a difference? In my opinion, it certainly did. The truck feels more responsive to pedal input now.

 

After about a year I could feel the indentation. I switched it out to a gel pad, it's been great since. I used a motorcycle pad like the one below, cut it to fit and done. If you are dead set on foam any high density foam will work. I would keep it under an inch, inch max to make sure you'll be able to get the cover back on correctly.

Thanks, apprecaite it.

 

nope. by the time i pulled over after the impact, the culprit disappeared faster than yelling 'free for the next 10 minutes!' in a crowded kohls.

 

Joined the RTT club today!

 

Sweet!

 

First part of an up coming project

 

I ordered a set of those a while back.

Got nothing! Not even a response from customer service or anyone to answer multiple phone calls.

Vapour wear!

And they still send me promo e-mails. NOT A GOOD LOOK!

But I would go for a set of those inside braces.

 

Have you priced Rock Auto ? I get a lot of my parts from them, usually the best prices around. Also what is the torque setting for the plugs ?

 

Swapped the Predator steps out for some Clambers. They are about 2x heavier and pretty solid. No more ankle dings. Not doing anything trecherous enough to warrant legit sliders. These will at at least slide vs. catch on something in the creek.
