What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No spacers. Minimal rubbing. I used a razor knife to cut away a small price of the inner fender well and it resolved all rubbing except when at full lock in reverse. I'll need to CMC to correct that.

 

What size tires? Any spacers ? Do they rub?

 

If you look under the bumper right where the lights are, you will see the wiring harness. Just twist it counterclockwise and then slide it out. It's a tight squeeze and definitely got a few scratches on my hand trying to reach it. Good luck

 

getting ready to do a hood swap here with a guy around here too. Did everything change out easily with no issues? any last minute advise would be welcome.

 

I really like those oval tube steps. thinking about getting some myself. Do they get in the way of your foot as you get out of the truck?

 

Thinking about getting the TRD pro rims with BFG KO2's in a 275/70/17.. Can anyone confirm that they will fit on stock suspension with no problems

 

Some people have messaged me for more sound clips of the Borla ProXS on my truck so here's an updated video. Use headphones if you got them.

 

I was thinking the same thing...must be for cosmetic purposes. I've driven my neighbors 2nd gen with 3" blocks and it's definitely a rough ride especially on neighborhood speed bumps....can't even imagine what it would feel like taking it off the asphalt

Where did you find this so cheap?

 

Good deal man, congrats. Yeah easy change out. Bolts are shouldered so should be no alignment issues. Two 12mm socket wrenches and a blanket should be all you need. Disconnect the washer fluid line right at the hood hinge on both trucks. Take one hood off, set it on the blanket. Swap the other hood. Install the one on the blanket. Reconnect washer fluid line. Done. Took about 15 min total. Hoods are lighter than you'd think.

 

How do you secure the back tire/wheel of your bike to the bed?

 

Where did you pick up the hinge bracket from?

 

The back tire is on the bike. With a bed Matt they don't slide around and stay perfectly still. I have wheel bags that I put my front wheel in.

 

That's an awesome pad! I've seen Dakine's version everywhere, but not many from RaceFace or others... Like the straps and pads/notches on top. You find a good price on it?

 

i got a decent price on it from backcountry, not many places are stocking them at the moment, It was 120 with free 2 day shipping that turned into next day to the DC area(shipped from the hub in christiansburg va) I had a friend that had the Dakine version, but i like the straps and pads on this one to keep the bikes safe and it also has a softer touch backing instead of the vinyl so it shouldnt scratch my tailgate up from the reviews i read on this one

 

Without a lift they are likely to rub. I think 265/70/17 is the largest you can go on stock suspension with no rubbing.

 

Bed mat question , What about protecting the tailgate? Do they make a piece for it? I have not seen any posts on it.

 

Discount tire I got a quote from a buddy that works at a different tire shop for cheap. They matched it plus gave me 300 credit trade for my current stock tires. So I walked out of there with a new set of tires for right under 600 !
