What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Nice!

 

Any rubbing? How much lift you got out of it?

 

I didn’t measure, but it should be anywhere from 2.5-3”. No rubbing

 

I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but apparently I'm as wiring illiterate as I had feared. I don't really have any experience with electrical wiring but I'm hoping to learn. It is what it is

I'm using the harness that was included with my Baja Designs Squadrons that are tied in to a rocker switch. Grounds are tied in at the top.




I cannot for the life of me get them to work with an OEM switch.

G - Power to lights
R - Power to switch
R - Power to ignition
B - Ground

Would I be able to have the switch light come on only with lights without a fuse tap? I'd like to be able to have these on independent of the ignition as they were with the rocker switch.

I've got the switch light to come on at the cost of a fuse wiring as below...

Power In - Red/Red
Power Out - Green
Ground (1/2) - Black

Chimichanga Edition, its all done in red and black and has rainbow and sparkle Unicorn dust pouring out the exhaust pipe.

 

Sure it would, you just need a snorkel.

 

:I’m assuming you’re doing this for winter driving. This is my first winter with a truck. Is there a reason you would put the weight in the back of the bed vs. over the rear axle? I’m planning on taking the same steps next weekend, I just haven’t decided/ figured out how I’m going to stop them from sliding all over the bed. I really need to get a bed mat.

 

After a week of waiting to come home, I finally was able to install @mesojdm ’s ninja stealthy Ultimate LED Turn Signals. Looks way better!




Also bought a steering wheel cover that matches the Clazzio leather seats

 

See if anything here might help. Same type of issue .

Since you're wanting to use the OEM style switch. Let me know if this doesn't make sense.

Green - to Power/Battery
Red 1 - to lights
Red 2 - tap to fuse for illumination
Black - Ground

You can use what's already on the Baja Designs toggle switch. The center red wire would go to Green/power, easily identifiable, it'll have the inline fuse. The other red wire off the toggle switch will go to Red 1.

 

Added a Plug-in air freshener...

 

Where did you pick up the steering wheel cover to match?

 

Hey - is that a tailgate lip guard? Can you tell me where you got that???
Thanks! Nice truck!!!

 

put a little more work into the platform. cut L edging for 3 of the sides. gotta pickup more and some T channel for the joint between the front and rear sections. will order carpet and glue and paint or powdercoat the metal edging.

 

Changed out those ole stock sport wheels and tires for some TRD pro wheels and Falken wildpeak tires. Plus the Pro grille and I know it hurts ground clearance but that bull bar

 

Unlike these millennials, I never once complained about Vickie although I think now I definitely would.

 

Seats came out beautifully!

 

What made you choose partial board over MDF or plywood?

 

Installed the @Mobtown Offroad Recovery Bar on my Gen 3. Install went perfectly, zero fit issues. Had to take a Dremel to my cut my bumper, but I love doing surgery so that was fun. Also fabricated a little mount for the Anderson connector and bolted it to the flange supporting the 2 inch receiver. Great product !
