What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

looks great. More pics please. did you have to do the chop?

 

I got the same kit for Christmas. Did you use the supplied switch or use something different? I bought a ch4x4 switch to use in my dash for mine and was playing with the wiring today. The lights work fine but couldn't get the illumination to work on the switch. Tried wiring a few different ways but never got it to work like the others already installed in my truck. I'm guessing it may the because the wiring doesn't have a relay but I'm not sure. Wanted to make sure it would work proper before I install everything. I'm stumped right now and need to do some more research.

 

Added some new pinstripes (not gonna buff out this time) up and back to McIvers Cabin with the family.




Apparently there was a group that didn't think I'd make it up there.

Only thing I noticed was a clang in the front left a couple times coming off a couple things, sounded like linkage maybe? Is there a common failure I should look for?

Also used all the armour. If you're on the fence about sliders and skids, just do it.

Aired down to ~22, made it way more comfortable. Unfortunately haven't installed the onboard air yet so I had to drive all the way back home at that (not too far). Once I get the air in I'll be more comfortable going lower even. But then I'll need a little lift to make up the loss... It's only money right

 

See if your switch is like one of these types.

 

Looks awesome. Was just looking at this bumper on their website.

 

Looks nice. Where’d you get the TRD emblem?

 

Yeah

 

How much that cost?

 

Well, I dropped mine off for some warranty work today. Gonna be about a week before I'm back behind the wheel.

 

Please elaborate.

 

Leak in the timing belt cover

 

I'll take some for you tomorrow. If you have a metallic color though I say go for it and let it shine

 

Damn, sorry buddy

 

Joshua Tree and some trails with the family this weekend.

 

Its a ch4x4 switch with 4 wires. I have a light bar and ditch lights that both run off of the same type of switch. But they both have a wiring harness with a relay and 3 wires running to a stock switch that I replaced with the ch4x4 switch. My current bed lights don't have a relay and there are only 2 wires to wire it up. Yes I can make the bed lights work but the illumination for the "lights on" and the "dash lights" are my issue. Guess I'll play with it some more tomorrow. I'll look over my other wiring harnesses and see if I can get some ideas for a solution.

 

Night time pic of the LED’s and yellow Lamin-X fog light film......

The bluish green looking light below the fog lights is just a reflection of the camera lens on my phone. I’m a very amateurish photographer.

 

Added new custom radio mount.

 

from: tacos4cheap here on the forums. He’s got a thread listed in the marketplace for them in several different colors

 

One more box in the pile:

 

These arrived, just waiting on my Falcon shocks, then swap it all out! These look nice- welds all super clean, these are def. an improvement over factory UCA’s.
