What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

and here I thought you came up with a self cleaning tire!

 

I wonder if they make these "color burnout" tires in truck sizes?

 

Quick install. TRD Pro Grill . Love this freakin truck.

 

Installed d rings on bed bolts closest to cab. Took me all day. Had to attach a 4 ft copper pipe to 24" breaker for leverage. Crap those bolts are ridiculous tight and long! Couldn't get washers off so just used a bench grinder and took off one side so d ring would slide on. Hands are all cramping and back is killing me so no pics. Hard for me to figure out how to do that anyway. Just wanted to brag that I did it for an arthritic 70+

 

Installed the Ironman 4x4 stage 2 kit. Ended up with 2.5ish in the front and about 3” in the rear.

 

always love seeing a TRD Pro Grill install, best bang for your back upgrade

 

Did my spark plugs. Why did the passenger side take 35 minutes and the driver, 3 hours!?
Also. Two had blow by and weren’t completely tight. On a truck that’s been dealer maintained most of its life. That’s what I get for being “too busy” to do it myself.

 

mileage ?

 

I’ve been stockpiling parts since I got the truck last June…today I took andvantage of the sunny day and installed the center console tray-arrived without instructions…docked one star. ZPrecision cupholder-now my Red Bull cans fit. MESO bucket, Morimoto license plate lights, VLEDS V6 Extreme Tails, VLEDS interior lights, and a Diode Dynamics C1R Hitchpod. Word of advice for the taillight conversion…they specify using the tougher rubber seal for the reverse lights-give them a good crush before you install, or you’ll shred your fingers trying to rotate them to lock.

 

Just routine spring things, every season done.
Clean up and ceramic spray;
Summer wheels on.
Out of schedule things:
New MX4 Bac Flip lid (replaced under warranty by BakFlip, great job, thank you, guys!)
Tailgate rubber seal installed, after today's test drive on dusty gravel road - passed 100%, dust leak is minimal.
Everything done in last 7 days,
and yea'h new bed mat - simple thick mat from CanTire, cost 100 Cad, works perfect for me!

 

Where’d you get the tailgate rubber seal from?

TIA

 

Is that the nytop rear recovery points?

 

Yes, NYTOP, and very happy with them!

 

they make a size that fits from 14"-20", but how much more can you require?

16": 215/60/R16
17": 235/45/R17
18": 235/40/R18

 

Was a link of forum to Amazon. Can't remember manufacturer and details, sorry. But, package contains two different products, two different ways to seal the box. Choice
is on you.

 

Not the OP, this is the one I used:

$29 ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal with Taper Seal 10ft for use with Truck Caps and Tonneau Covers

Amazon.com: ESI Ultimate Tailgate Seal with Taper Seal 10ft for use with Truck Caps and Tonneau Covers : Automotive
I have no idea if there are better ones or not, I can just say it did work and it stays stuck. They had a set of videos or instructions for various trucks and it took a moment of pondering to figure out exactly how to put it on the sides of the bed for the side edges of the tailgate.

 

Wow . Guess they started torquing them... Mine were all under torqued from the factory.

 

You got more pics of those?

 

Thanks. I appreciate it. @MrMobile provided a link.

 

Thank you for the link and advice.
