What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I have this already hahah

 

On the seal, that is a Phyrgian cap, the bonnet rouge of revolutionary France also called a liberty cap. On the Devo album cover, those are Energy Domes.

And here's a link to a description of everything else on the seal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seal_and_emblem_of_the_United_States_Department_of_the_Army

...the more you know <g>

 

That's the spirit! Haha, thanks for the pointers. I'm probably going to go 1/4' aluminum on all the parts. I don't do a lot of off-roading and I want to save on the weight.

My SR5 didn't come with any skids, not even the flimsy OEM skids. It looks very naked under there and I don't want to buy the stock skids, so I'll jump on board and join ya

 

That actually sounds pretty good. Also didn't realize these produce any noticeable sound at the tailpipe stock.

Finally installed the remote tailgate lock today. Pretty simple. Have to say thenworst part was the cable ties and those stainless cable ties. Also noticed how small the rear diff is on this thing... made me chuckle.

 

When my Mother saw the album cover back in 1980 she referred to them as "potheads" haha

 

I think it sounded better stock.

 

Can’t wait to see it back together, know it’s gonna be bad ass!

 

Keep us posted on the progress. Damn, wish I had half the fabricating skill you’ve got! I wouldn’t even think about welding anything on my own, probably get charged with arson!

 

Is that a JD Fab LCA relocate combined with a Camburg LT and a Fox 10" C/O? There is sooooo much drip in this post.

Also, "what inner fender? Never heard of one."

 

Those are the Predator steps. Many folks here running them. I'll have to measure how far they drop down. Not really sure. I don't do any rock climbing, just trails. I need the steps for my 4-11 wife and 5 year old.

 

I’ve seen a lot of people here talking about the predators. I’d love to know how far they come down. my wife is short as well. Need a damn ladder for her haha

 

History

*EDIT

Looks like you beat me to it

 

I made this last year for pi day. No measurements, eyeballed it all. Made it a rectangle to be contrary. Tasty pumpkin pie.

 

Saw them live in like 96? Worth it

 

That’s awesome!

 

Oddly enough that is not how you determine the volume of that pie.

 

There are plenty of pre-drilled mounting holes on the panels, so I’d just do the same as I did for my rooftop Pelicans- drill them, then add a bolt with a fender washer & rubber washer outside, then a rubber washer & fender washer inside, and secure w/ a nylon locknut.

 

Love the truck! You and I have similar tastes.
I ordered a Avid front bumper guard at the end of January. I emailed Brandon yesterday and did not get a response. I am wondering what the lead time was on yours?

 

any idea if you need 2 separate cat shields going this route?

 

I was at these two...........
