What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Installed a 2” OME full suspension lift including shocks (not lift spacers) & auxiliary battery with automatic isolator. Body Armor Proline front bumper & 9,500lb Smittybilt winch.

 

Hopefully next mods will be e-locker in the front & 4.30-1 gears front & rear. Then Method rims & 285/75-R17 General Grabber ATX’s.

 

Added custom decals. Was told they would add 10-20hp.

 

4x4=16, so that’s all the horsies you get.

 

Truck looks awesome!

Not much today. I installed a pair of Deer Whistles on my front bumper. The deer are out in force around here. Better safe that sorry. The last time I installed a set of these was in 1977 on my F150 4X4. If the Deer Whistles don't work, my "Grumpy Cat" will attack.....

 

So I added a tire I found in a McD’s parking lot. My wife said what you gonna do with that. I said I will find something.

 

@Prinsu Cab and Cap racks.

 

Ohhh, I feel this, figuratively and literally. I have a labral. Surgery is needed, sadly.

 

Cool lookin' Sport!

 

Couldn't stand the ARB compressor fuse blocks dangling around so I made a bracket for a fuse block.

 

If you’re regearing I’d do atleast 4.88’s, I have factory 4.30’s and wish I had lower gears when I ran 255/80’s

 

Mocked up some rear interior lights. I'm using the VLEDs rear footwell kit that come with a four foot extension. I haven't measured the cable length required, but I'm almost positive I'll need more than what came with the kit. I'm liking the mock up so far, but I have a few other options I want to try out when I get to installing my Goose Gear rear seat delete (which should hopefully be this weekend!)

 

It’s a old biker expression. Meaning out an about or off to work.

 

Nice and accessible. Very nice

 

I think I used an extra 4ft extension and everything else was in the front and rear kits.

 

Can you share any details on the block and pan heater (model, where purchased, etc?). Thanks!

 

This is the block heater, you need to shave off a little bit of the side where the plug goes so it clears the transmission.

This is the oil pan heater, fits perfect on the little steal part of the oil pan that hangs down.

Then I used this outlet under the hood. Lets me plug in the truck at night, then 30 minutes before I plan to leave I just push the on button on the remote and the two heaters turn on.

I got everything from the links, but the block heater I got from autozone down the street from me, then the outlet I picked up at menards down the street also.
