What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Add these door jam protectors

 

Used it as a truck and took 2 loads of yard waste to the dump! Then ran it through the car wash to get the dust off! Trust me on that, wasn't pulling out the camera phone for that!

 

Added the Hondo Garage Cord Clips too!

 

Yes.. I used small plastic risers and put the hole in center where I could reach the rear latch on factory fuse panel

 

Ha, ha!

OK, swapped out the standard dimming/compass mirror for a Gentex Garage door opener/Compass/dimming mirror!

 

Is this pretty much plug and play or is there more to the install?

 

If you have the dimming/compass mirror already, this is totally plug n play! Took 5 minutes to swap out. Haven't programmed the door opener yet but those are easy. Have done that before.

Here's a shot of it installed. Since the flash fired the blue backlights in the door opener buttons doesn't show up.

 

It is just the shutter speed of the camera. They look normal to the normal eye.

 

Nice! I get mine next Friday!

 

Thanks. Yet another part to add to my list.

 

Christened it proper today.

Better than breaking a bottle of champagne on the hood

It kinda feels like cheating but crawl control is damn impressive!

 

Here's where I bought it used: https://www.ebay.com/itm/122307805812

I just cleaned, sanded, and painted it black with Rustoleum engine enamel in gloss black. Turned out good! This one doesn't have a tip at the end so I bought one and gonna take it to get welded on.

 

It sounds sooo good man! Such a deep growling sound especially on a cold start! Sounds better with an exhaust tip though I'm gonna take one to get welded on! Stupid aftermarket exhaust clamp didn't hold it on the pipe lol

 

Drove down to Dinosaur Valley State Park with a buddy today

 

I also just changed my 2016 TRD OR to Bilsteins 3rd gen all around, read here:

Sweet! How was the install? I got the turn down system that cuts off right before the axle. Post some pics!!

 

PRO BROS. jk.
the quicksand is mo' betta.

 

It was a bitch lol. Took me about 3hrs or so. What took me so long was taking the exhaust off the rubber hangers. Then had to mess with the new one to get everything straight before putting the clamps on and tightening. But it looks good and I love it. It got dark so I will post some tomorrow and tag you!

That cut off would have been good because you don't have to deal with a long install time and aligning everything lol
