What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Solid! I can't tell from the picture, but how did you mount the extinguisher?

 

I used this T-slot nut below to attach the extinguisher holder to the cab bed rail. Secured with a 3/8-16 X 1-1/4 inch Button Socket cap Screw.

Then just mount the extinguisher in the holder it came with.

$24 Te-Co 41406T Black Oxide 1018 Steel Tapped Through T-Slot Nut, 3/8"-16 TPI, 5/8" Height x 7/8" Width x 9/16" Table Slot (Pack of 5)

You can opt for a double strap holder for more firm mount as I did.

Also recommend an extinguisher with a metal head.

Did put my name on it hoping some low life does not take it.

 

Love the wheels!

 

where did you find the steps?

 

Nice job recovering the rattle trap rust bucket. However.

 

Ya im not a fan of plasti dip unless it is just emblems or something haha.

 

or Flip Over Read Directions

 

This one is from Rockymounts. It is the model called the Hot Rod (to fit my 15x110mm BOOST forks). The mount was about $50 and I had to get the T-nuts (Amazon) and bolts/washers (Home Depot). Also had to drill out the holes in the mount to 3/8" for the bolts.

 

Question if your going to do the intake , do you also have to do an exhaust as well ?
To get results ?

>>> UPDATE <<<

The PRO came off the dealer lot with tire pressure of (cold outside) 29PSI and (warm outside) 32PSI. Yesterday I have inflated all tires to 40PSI in the afternoon (warm outside) and the MPG jumped from 19 to 21 MPG.
Also the drive handling feels better now that I'm not driving on sponges.

 

I'm not sure as my Pro came with the TRD cat back exhaust. However, from just installing the intake, I noticed a little better acceleration and throttle response. Also, the extra sound bite is nice too.

I'm assuming you'll feel something if you just did the intake w/out an exhaust.

 

I had the TRD Intake and Exhaust done a couple weeks ago. I didn't notice any difference other than the cool looks and the awful cabin drone around 2K RPM. I ended up installing a Vibrant Resonator to solve the problem. Now I'm left with just the cool looks.

 

Took advantage of the 65+ weather and dipped the hood scoop black. Love it

 

Hit 1847 miles today and did an oil change. After all the debate on here I caved to the paranoia and cleaned her out long before getting to 10,000 miles.

I'll now be able to sleep at night...

P.S. Real motivation for this was 50th post, so I can sell stuff in the Buy/Sell forum.

 

Did the resonator quite the exhaust down as a whole, i.e. while at idle, or just get rid of the drone?

Having a Magnaflow 3" exhaust and URD y-pipe welded on next week, and was thinking about maybe getting a 3" resonator as well, to keep it from sounding like a ricer, but don't want to quite it to much to not hear a nice rumble at idle.

Thoughts?... Anyone?

 

New Rays installed

 

Don't need a forum. My new truck isn't a pile of shit.

 

I had a laundry list of the usual complaints. My favorite was the mismatch gear ratios. I was always wondering why the computer or whatever would always derate the power. I wasn't smart enough to know the thing had two different gear ratios. Thanks to all the guys that helped me get my case filed and had taken the time to tell me what to do.

 

Hey nosbigshot don t give the numbnuts on here any satisfaction of getting up your ass about your truck.. Some guys here are just out to piss people off on a regular basis
