What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Ubolt flip completed. Had these for a little bit and finally got the time to install. Archive garage (@ARCHIVE ) parts and everything went on fine. Thanks Eric!

 

Yup, that isn't justification to shoot. Because you have the option to drive away very easily. As much as you would want to do it its not the right call

 

EXACTLY. The hard part is staying calm and level headed in those situations because once that trigger is pulled there is no going back. When I go my CCW they said theres a lawyer attached to every bullet that comes out of that gun.

 

Installed the Body Armor HiLine Bumper with the HF Badlands Apex 12,000 lb winch.

 

I really like those bumpers. Does it cause any errors on the TSS?

 

What size did you go with and how is the ride quality?

 

No errors right now.

 

I would be interest to know how much settling you had in the front. When I did my 12K winch, I had nearly an inch loss in the front.

 

I have run my BA Highline bumper for a year and a half with zero TSS errors.

 

I didn't measure before I installed, however I can feel the weight of it when I drive. Next will be a lift & tires.

 

I’m sure it will be fine but after cutting and installing I would be sick if I got errors. In my mind I see the radar as a cone projecting out and spreading out so unless something is directly in front of the sensor it won’t see it but I have been wrong before.

Love my bed step.

 

I'm looking for the best deal the on the "old man step" right now actually.

 

While we're talking lowpro bumpers...

Does anyone have a suggestion for other brands to look at which are similar to the SSO Slimline Plate front bumper? I really like the look and retaining factory fogs location is also a nice bonus.

Honestly I'm basically decided on the SSO, but with almost every upgrade to the Taco I usually buy something and find "the exact perfect X" like two days later and have regret about the purchase.

WarFab also has some neat front bumpers (especially with the recessed recovery points and 90 deg winch placement...) but doesn't seem like they'd fit the overall aesthetic I'm going for.

Currently thinking SSO full plate up front and that yet-to-be-released Apogee swing out on the rear.

 

Best deal on a budget.

 

damn man. Sorry to hear. I think a dash cam should be the next thing you get

 

AC leaks inside and outside the truck
The truck gets taken to the Dealership today for warranty repair of the leaking AC condensation inside the truck. I took the pics because I had a feeling the issue might not get duplicated and that is what I was told today. Got the 25K mile service done and it was documented that my AC leaks. I was told to bring it to them next time it does it. So I get home and there it has started again slightly. Too much hassle to turn right around and go back. I will find the time when it does it to just go straight there. They said they blew the drain line out and they did leave the plastic nut off the firewall cover bolt so they did go in there. I will report my findings if the issue continues.

 

Well, I like that price better.

 

Gotta be a seal somewhere then if the evaporator drain line was cleaned. That's quite a bit of water too.
