What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Right now I carry extra clothes in the coffee cans. The cans fit there perfectly and keep my clothes dry. I hike quite a bit and I’ve gotten soaked all the way to skin a few times. It’s nice to have dry spares of everything. Driving home a couple hours in wet underwear sucks. LOL

 

I like the idea of a French Fry catcher.

 

If you straightened out the ladder and made the bottom stand off longer and removable, maybe you could hang it inside the shell from the roof? With the top in the front. Or maybe that would make it easier to mount on top. Like your ideas a lot.

 

What's the details? Size? LT or SL? Looks good!

 

Well, it was a very disappointing weekend. I ordered a scooped hood from Revmoto that came in a couple weeks ago. When it arrived, I opened the box and checked for damage. It all looked good and was packaged very well. This last Thursday, they sent me an email reminding me to check for damage as there was only 3 days left to file a claim. (I just got home from work on Wednesday). I pulled it out of the box to clean and apply paint protection film prior to installation the next day. As I removed the protective foam blocks on the corners, I found this:





I replied to the email that I received just 90 minutes before asking me to check for damage and reported what I found. I received the following email today:

“....
In cases such as yours, normally, the claim is automatically denied as the damage has been informed to us beyond the time frame allowed for us to file claim with shipper. However, your satisfaction is important for us and would like to help you as much as possible with the resolving the issue. We would like to request you to get a repair estimate from a local body shop. Once you have it, please send it over to us for review and see how we can assist you with the repair cost.
....”

While I understand the seller’s dilemma being beyond the time to make a claim with the shipper, this sucks. The damage was clearly hidden. With my work schedule, it will be several weeks before I could drag this hood to a body shop and get an estimate that they may or may not cover some portion of. So basically I have 2 options, I can pay even more money so that I can install a damaged and repaired part on my truck, or I can throw away several hundred dollars and just sell this pos for whatever I can get.

 

Seriously though, that really sucks. Hopefully they will take care of you beyond just a canned response. Good luck.

 

New shift knob and the chalk bag bottle holder mod!

 

Good stuff. Link please.
Digging the blow pop too. Haven’t seen those since I was a kid

 

It’s a Tootsie Pop! Stole some of the kids Halloween candy.

 

Thanks! I like them much better then stock
Nitto ridge grapplers 265/70r16 stock size. Load is listed as XL on nitto’s website with a weight at about 46lbs - I didn’t want to take the performance hit w the LT or the E load range.

 

I hear ya! That's why I asked. I was hoping they were the XL's so I could confirm what they look like. They look better than I was expecting. I am trying to decide on some new tires. I do not want E rated either.

 

Sucks. Hopefully they take care of the damage.

 

Where did you get the shift knob?

 

That is gold, I'll use that one. Thanks man!

Did you use back to black on your flares? Mine are starting to look pretty rough from two years of the Florida sun.
