What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Got my @At The Helm bed stiffeners back from powder coating. It was a 5 min install after pre drilling everything yesterday. They look great and are really high quality. While I was tinkering back there yesterday, I also mounted my OEM led bed lights and installed my pop&lock power tailgate lock. I haven't run the wires all the way to the front yet, but did everything to mount them in place. Took apart the sheathing for the camera and removed the smaller inner sheath part way in the outer one to make room for the p&l harness. Had to unplug both ends of the camera and all of the tailgate wiring plugs, but I am super happy with the end result. Super clean and looks factory.

I've seen some people use brass fittings for this. Don't know the size, but you should be able to find something that will couple the current drain holes with the tubing diameter. There are already small drain holes in the bed right?

 

Used her to tow for another camping trip. First time with the new wheels/tires. Didn't tow as good as with the stock wheels but it was also very windy, which may be the cause.

 

Yeah, in the MT there's two cup holders and an tiny rectangle in front.. Looking for something to put there. Right now I just have a business card to keep them from falling all over and just dump the coins in..

 

I was mistaken on the weight, it says 14lbs on their website. Sure feels like more I do get 22-23 on some drives, but my average is 18mpgs (Turnpike speeds keep that average down). I don't have any signs of rust and it looks awesome so no complaints there. Just feel like the combination of weight/tight fit/difference in materials could cause issues at some point and I'd rather not have to worry about it. I have an idea for more of a custom design that I'd like to try out at some point.

 

Rola bed rack finally came in yesterday, put it on this afternoon!

 

awesome! thanks for sharing!

 

Where do we buy this coin holder?

 

Installed ECGS bushing for drivers side axle, replacing needle bearing. Annoying vibration is now gone.

 

@mesojdm sells them, just follow his FS thread

Try this link...scroll down on this page and there you go. I've done it in my truck and works fine.

 

I got my leer 100R put on today. I am very happy with it. I also put my new bed side decals on courtesy of @CBoy808, thanks!

 

Picked these up off a Craigslist deal:

5x BFG KO2s (265 70 17). 4x with less than 1k miles and 1x new spare for $600.

Pretty happy with deal except didn't realize didn't have white letters until picked up; bought anyways.

 

Didn't do anything specifically, but ordered ARB Twin compressor, Slee mount and a switch for it. Should be here just in time to get installed for a camping trip.

 

Installed a vape bro holder.

 

Did you use anything to reduce the wobble in the smittybilt step in the hitch receiver?

 

dank.

 

Had truck 8mo and coming up on 5k. Made 5k service appt for next week and for diff recall, (no leaks) and nav repair. Hope the nav just needs update

 

Got a pic of her first tow...technically second tow but got a picture now haha. Refurbishing my dad's old 1980 Ski Supreme

 

What's up with your nav?
