What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I still have mine. I’ll do this when I get home.

 

Got my Hi-Lift mounted in the bed along with a shovel. So I think I'm ready to go join a Jeep forum and start parking with one tire on top of objects to show off my suspension travel.

But besides when I go off roading the jack will stay in my garage. I just can't justify $500 for a winch so I figure a hi-lift is a good emergency backup tool.

 

better yet...ill laminate my title lmao

 

Whoa! Love my @drtfabrication skid but damn, the summit one is clean!

 

I conquered the seventh level of hell by managing to get the KTJD grab handle installed.

 

Installed the AJT Designs cup holder. Install was a breeze. Re-installment of the trim or whatever was not. One of the plastic clips got bent on my first attempt (my own fault I’m sure ) and proceeded to F with my emotions for about 10 minutes until I could convince it to stay put. Finished product is fantastic though. No real world use yet, but a little fit testing…..
32/40 oz Hydroflask fit great with a tiny bit of room to spare although the 40oz may just be a bit too tall for my liking. I think the 32 will be mu Go-To bottle for the truck.






As for mugs/etc…. I found my straight walled mug of choice fit great. It’s about 3-5/8” diameter.



If you wanted to take some soup in your little stanley thermos, it won’t fit into the holder bottom, but will snug in nice and tight in the upper regions and could accompany you on your travels there.


And if you absoulutely have to use a curved base mug (ya weirdo), well that’s up to you to decide. I did find that one of my wifes mugs would ride fairly decent resting up high with the factory center wedgy thing in place.


Oh. And a yeti rambler is a no-go.



UPDATE:
The shapely 28oz gatorade bottles fir great as well with the factory wedgy thing.

 

Installed a new to me safe. Very happy with how clean it fits.

 

Found a tear toward the bottom of the rear seat back. “Color matched” an iron on patch with a blend of fabric markers. Could be worse.

 

Did there MESO vents, door handles, and climate rings today. I was trying to wait for the MESO chrome delete kit to come in and do it all at once but I got impatient. It'll probably show up tomorrow.

Also, had some black vinyl laying around so I did the glovebox lock.

 

Best to mount it where it is least accessable

 

It goes away quick

 

The OEM bed mat works wonders. I hauled a first gen rear to sell it and realized that I needed a bed mat.. that thing slid all over the bed. Probably the best $85 I spent as far as functional modifications go ... What's the point of the bed if your constantly worried about stuff sliding around back there.... I really had to shop around for a good price, but this mod is a must have.

 

Holy crap.. that's quite a lift.. I'd imagine you had to change a lot of components to get everything lined up correctly.....

 

Drop bracket

 

Funny ass story…. When I brought my new rig home I took my kids for a drive and a little craziness. I then asked if anyone had the window sticker and my daughter said “ I don’t but I’m using this paper to keep the floor mats clean, I know how you get,” the window sticker was dead but I’m left with a solid memory.

 

Something to tow?

 

I get a little dampness in the rear, but that’s most likely from water spraying up through the gap in the tailgate.

 

Took a few photos of the first offroad trip. Still haven’t broken 1,000 miles yet.

 

Looking good!
I like the TRD sticker, it goes great with the wheels.
