What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Ordered the cargo light switch and 3rd tail light. Now I either dremel a cut out from my dash panel or search for one that accepts the cargo light switch

 

The screen is black and I do notice it when checking my rear view mirror. I have a big roll so taking the screen out, painting and then putting new screen on shouldn’t take too much time.

 

LoL
They already slam the doors when the enter/exit the truck.

 

ROFL
I had a buddy who slammed the doors so hard on my vehicle, for safety, I felt like I should have re-torqued every nut and bolt on the vehicle after taking him anywhere.

Actually that was a bad memory, took me about 2+ years to break him of that. Looong time. I couldn't believe it.

 

Gotcha. Gives me an idea of what in for. Probably will take me a bit longer with just hand tools. Appreciate the info.

 

i only used the impact to take the tires off and a few bigger bolts. didnt save that much time. For sure the pitman arm puller is a must for some of those bolts. (steering rod and upper control arm bolts)

Add-a-fuse from O"Reilly's and some #10 THHN from Home Depot. I already had plenty of insulated butt crimps and misc. stuff lying around.
Made a harness with this: 1/4" expandable PET braided sleeving and some cloth tape.

 

Ok. I'm sure I could borrow a puller for the job since I don't own one. Lots of auto parts stores loan them out as well. I've got a few more videos to watch before I try and tackle this. Thanks for the tip.

Edit. We should have hooked and I could have helped you and learned a lot...lol
Hind sight

 

Did you get the kit for the rear seats as well?

 

One other thing. Did you have to replace the seal (would think so) and did you use the removal and install tool for the clamshell bushing? I'm guessing the removal tool is a must but not 100% sure on the install tool.

 

Put the yellow covers on the oem ridged fog lights (snows a bit here). Part#: 301933.

 

I'm pretty sure it had everything to do with the MAF sensor. I noticed when I installed it onto the new intake tube that it didn't appear to be seating right on the flange, but in my haste to get the job done and go to bed I ran out of fux to give. I think excess air was seeping in through that area when I really got on the throttle leaving work, and the MAF sensor had a minor stroke. I just parked in my driveway after putting coupe hundred miles on the odometer today with highway driving. Light stayed off the entire time, and no issues whatsoever.

 

Replaced my bed stiffeners with the 4wp ones.

 

On order in Aqua...

 

That’s gold welds! Your truck is “The Gold Edition”.

 

Kenstogie I think your brake fluid looks kinda low.

 

Ceramic coated and ceramic tint, SpeedFlate air kit, and installed the KC Cyclone under-hood light kit. Plan on adding a pin switch to the underwood lights, not a fan of the toggle switch the kit came with. I decided to go with the SpeedFlate kit rather than make it myself mainly because it was well made and if I added materials and my time, I would have only saved a few bucks. decided to support a small, family owned business instead.

 

Picked this up..

 

Gotta love kids. Made me laugh out loud. Literally. Wife gave me a look like what's wrong with you. She understood after I showed her the picture. Enjoy them as much as you can. They grow up fast, really fast.

 

A question for the guys with Rxt leaf packs. I installed mine about 1000 miles ago. Option 1 got me about 3/4” higher than stock height. I have about 600lbs constant load and no lift. I assumed they would settle a bit. Currently my passenger side is almost 2 inches higher then drivers side with 1/4 tank of gas. The past 600 miles or so had about 800 lbs in the back during a camping trip with the family. It was pretty evenly distributed in the bed. Any thoughts as to why it would settled so odd? Should I just swap sides and let the gas settle it out? Any other thoughts or ideas? TIA
