What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I didn't want to be the 1st to ask

 

Pretty good MPG for 33's with armor/winch!

Just was cruising at 63mph behind a big rig on flat ground.

Coincidentally, I opened up the softopper. I wonder if that made a difference...

I usually get around 17-19mpg

 

i thought they came with boots tbh.

just went googling and looks like bilstein were hit or miss on sending kits out with boots. any universal 2" body shock boot in the right length would work.

 

its my push bar/front bumper

 

Finally getting around to suspension. Finished the rear yesterday with Fox 2.5 Performance Elite +DSC, Icon RXT stage 2, Accutune U bolt flip with bump stops.
Took me total 10 hrs solo taking my time. Minus 1.5 hrs going to the store, lunch break, and trying to find my lug key (which i hid so well I forgot where I put it)
Look at the comparison from stock with blocks, to a proper leaf pack.

 

AKA PDD “Pedestrian Deflection Device”

Pesky pedestrians keep messing up the paint job…

 

Did you go with medium or HD leafs from Archive?

 

I got the XD ones. I could have been fine with HD, but I am about to gain a few pounds.

I'll post measurements and side shots soon.

 

do those compress enough to not limit uptravel? been looking around for aftermarket bump stops and some of the severely limit suspension like the timbrens.

 

I've now spent around 5.5K on the taco. More upgrades coming in the near future. This is the way.

 

This is the way.

 

That’s crazy! I have questions because I want to know what’s realistic with 33’s and that seems unrealistic lol.

Have you recalibrated the speedometer? Also are you tuned and/or regeared?

 

Another upgrade checked off (this one was a good 2-3 yrs in the cabinet)

redline shifter and ebrake boot, nothing flashy but just to match katskinz seat

 

These look great. Was just planning on buying oem or vinyl wrap mine. Are these texture or just flat matte black?

 

So after I bought my truck used (only had 22,000 miles on it). I realized the shitty dealership that I got it from got me good. It had been hit in the rear and they did enough cover up work for me not to notice it for a few months.



I ended finding another one on marketplace at a good price.



Got it installed today, happier with it, but those stupid plastic clips break too easy. It's not flush on the passenger side (same as before lol), but all the metal is straight now.


I also put my Peddle Commander in after I got it back from the better dealer near me to have my new clutch put in. No more squeaky clutch.

 

cows, gates, pushbar, protesters .......ect

 

o. looked like it was for a specific purpose like it held something

 

Damn! That sucks! Glad you got it sorted out though.
