What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I started to install the rough country seat covers, but only the head rests were dry. Anybody else notice they smell a bit like tires? I hand washed them in the tub with a bunch of dawn soap and hot water and left them to dry in the sun yesterday, but they still have a faint tire stench to them. Maybe I'll wash them once more.

 

Got $300 for my low mileage Goodyear Wrangler tires(stock). Sold to a young kid with a 99 Toyota Tacoma 4x4. Was super stoked to save some cash. Was happy to help.

 

As of today, it's still only about 75% inflated. 1/4 of it is quite flat. My pump comes tomorrow but I don't think it's supposed to be like this. I'm planning to go exchange it at REI since I got it last November.

 

ESI Tailgate seal installed.

 

Yes I had that exact model with the rubber stops. All their models have those.

The other car was going about 25mph when it rear ended me, and it totalled my truck. Just giving you a heads up, man. If you’re set on it, then more power to you, just know from a physics standpoint, that’s what will happen.

You’re better off letting the rear bumper do it’s job and crumpling, and replacing it which is a few hundred, than using this, and having the frame bent and taking the bed and other suspension parts with it for $1000’s ( I’m my case it was $21,000)

 

Finally installed the light bar and duel function switch I got for X-Mas.

 

I do appreciate this and I will rethink it. Thank you

 

Installed this last week and tested it out yesterday. Works as advertised.

 

I have the RC neoprene seat covers. They had a slight smell when new but went away quickly.

 

I would have the same feeling making any cuts

 

Have a navigation system update installed today (card bought on Amazon). Works good so far, happy.

 

What version did it update to?

 

Looks great…have you done this before?

 

It says 2022 map version. And yes, it shows roundabout in my area built in September 2022.

 

Been a while but added a Leer 100XR cap, decked drawers, and just today added the uptop bravo ex rack

 

Did the H9 headlights swap. Went into more detail on the headlights thread, but will recommend unbolting the windshield fluid reservoir to allow it to move and give a bit more room to maneuver. Adds maybe a minute to a three minute task, but makes it much easier to finesse an untrimmed base into the hole.

 

Just used it to get a snow day in before I’m back to work tomorrow after my bonding leave.

 

Looks good! How many coats did you use

 

Finally got around to changing the plugs after 153,000 glorious miles. The hardest part of the job was unplugging those clips from the coils with my meaty fingers!

 

Hell, I'd Like to get a set of Grey wheels, they would look awesome with my black truck. Then again, I do like black wheels, I'm thinking of taking that step and getting some nice Black Rhino wheels from Custom Offsets. But I still cant decide on a model.
What brand of wheels do you all like? Make some suggestions please.
