What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Wait, off roads have a matching dash to the paint? Is that just one or two years? Mine is a cement and my interior is just that generic gray color.

 

If they manage to gall threads would you really trust them with that? Just a thought…...

 

lol. A little toothy of a response, no?

 

285/75-16 KOs. Beefy!

 

ARB like Vent installed, Rear Dif, Tcase, and Tcase actuator is now vented under the hood. Actuator vent tube looked a little mangled, so trimmed it up 1/4" to solid tube. I thought the transmission and front dif vents looked good and located high enough that I think I won't vent those I'll leave them as is OEM.

Last pic is the front dif vents, sitting next to fuse box.

 

Attempted to catch the northern lights last night (no luck).

 

It wasn't all OffRoads. I think it was a package thing. My '17 has MGM and (had) chrome plastics.

 

TPU is soft. I haven't tried any yet to know how soft, but I'd guess it's too soft for that application. There are new materials and processes/equipment showing up in the marketplace all of the time. Those bump stops are likely printed in a liquid process.

 

What an inconvenience. I drove to 4 Ace Hardware's and 1 Home Depot. Ace had the correct size and type of bolt except it wasn't a flange head. I could have tried it with a washer, but that seemed just as janky as 303's customer service. What a joke of a business.

Maybe on one of the 2 they sent. The second one looks like they tried to send it through a paper shredder.
I ordered a die/thread chaser from HD. Should be here in a few days.

Also ordered 4 of these... (M14x1.5x80mm)

I figure there should be at least 2 good ones. A lot cheaper too.

 

You must have something special. All the used ones I drove had black dashes with the graphite accents, and when I got my new LR it was the same.
I like it though...I guess I'm into basic. And that means yours can be unique if it wasn't that common.

 

My Cement taco came with the inferno dash trim. Matches the black interior with orange stitching.

 

I have such mixed emotions about this.
Part of me is pissed these aren’t so readily available down here.

But also glad because it would just interrupt and change my whole setup.

 

I totally get that. There are some similar options state side. I did buy the truck to adventure though. So finding my ideal flatbed to be in Canada just meant I had to convince a beauty to sit passenger on the ride out in exchange for a couple of days of chasing hot springs in Banff on the way back.

I’ve found that I’m getting better at creating excuses for myself.

 

The most i have ever seen on my truck is 344 miles to empty and not that i have hit 61000 miles when i fill up now all i see is 314 miles to empty.

 

Nice looking truck, what brand of rack is that and was it easy to install? did it bolt to the existing inner bed rails or does it clamp under the edge of the bed?

 

Can anyone make a front bumper recommendation, i just want the bumper without the added wings on either side. Thanks.

 

Ace is the place with the helpful hardware man?

 

Find yourself a decent fastner company and go replace them yourself, screw t

Find yourself a decent fastener company and go replace them yourself, screw 303 shocks.

 

Which front bumper is that and how much cutting is required to installit?
