What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I removed my front valance on my 2023 SR5 3.5 4x4. I learned that here on TW! I finally realized that it is going to come off when I put my OEM TRD skid plate on. I like the look better! I would have knocked it off eventually anyhow.

 

Parked the truck and rolled the Model A

A basement is the worst place in the cold. It's colder in the basement usually rather than the toasty upper levels where the warm rises to.[/QUOTE]

 

I built a 15 ft desk with nice tiered shelf to work from the basement. My eyes do not like constant bright light in my office, so the basement was a better choice for the permanent place for the desk. Sadly I built the desk in the basement without measuring if the desk (even the 3 piece design) and the shelf could be moved out. I had to decapitate the top 2 shelf layers off the shelf to get it out and it somewhat spoiled the nice pyramid shape.

 

For some reason that skirt helped a lot with fuel economy. I love the look. I too swear by “ the look” But you’re gonna pay for it.

 

What's the specs on the model A? Motor? Frame?

 

Put 91 in it.

 

Trying to sell it for parts

 

Its a stroked 347 Old Alcohol motor. 3 speed auto Custom built frame Ford 9 inch in the rear.
He bought it when he was 17, Hes 68 now, The last 3 years we really hit it hard and finished it.
Painted it in his shop

 

You need to put that over in the Car Porn Thread too.

 

Chrysler nationals coming up in Carlisle. Pa.

 

Where are you?

 

Alhambra Spain it looks like...

 

30k service (they grow up so fast)

Front diff (did it with ECGS at 28k)
T case
Rear diff
Engine oil and filter
Brake fluid (did it at 29k)
Power steering fluid
Waiting on my WS fluid, just going to do a drain and fill on the trans as well.
Just got new tires 2 weeks ago so no rotation

T case was pretty clear, rear diff was a little dark, trans probably doesn't need a fluid change yet but fluids are a lot cheaper than replacing any of the components they lubricate!


Glamour shot from last night

 

Nothing all that exciting here.

‘22 Pro at 55k. Brake pedal was pulsing coming down the mountain from Lake Tahoe last week. Lots of pad life left, but obviously wearing unevenly. New Powerstop setup was installed yesterday.

 

Yup that’s what I have. Powerstop all around.

 

Is the pulse eliminated?

 

Taco on a boat!

Made it to NC for the beach bash. I always swear I'm gonna do more than just 5100's leveled and put 35's on but man these mpgs are nice considering lol.

 

Looks like a toy truck in that pic.
