What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yup, using the furthest carrier. Only has been a problem since the Alucab went on.

If you have the factory hitch you should be able to space the 1up carrier far enough out on the hitch to clear on the first carrier on the 1up, or at least get super close.

My hitch on my ATH bumper is several inches higher and closer to the tailgate than the factory.

Unfortunately with the DRT bumper the hitch will be even higher and closer than it is now, so I will definitely need an extension. 2ft is about the longest I've seen available online, so I'll probably start there. Will need to clear the spare on the swing out. I might still be able to get away without an extension and just use the second carrier too, so will see.

 

Damn.

I posted this earlier but here it is again:

This was the list of options they sent me, I didn’t opt for all of them:


MODS....

2 single thinner loops (100% mod people choose) - makes it easier to install under the trim

Swap out the fleece for a nylon liner (the most popular mod other than the thin loops)

Smaller brush loop / or / no brush loop at all (the side loop that is sized down slightly to fit a sharpie or pen)

Standard size (fits a 32/40oz Hydroflask) / or / smaller size (fits a normal water bottle) / or / XL (fits a 64oz hydroflask)

Standard / or / mirrored (If ordering 2) (have the pen loop face the same side so they mirror when installed)

Patch on the front(normal) / or / the back or leave it off the bag (only applies to bags with patches on them)

Remove the drawstring and grommet /or / keep the grommet and drawstring

 

Added a matt to be back seat so my dog stops sliding around.

 

Does anyone other than a dog ever go in the backseat? I did a partial "delete" of my rear seats and removed the seat bottoms. Took the rear headrests off and folded the seat backs down, it makes a level surface and more rear cabin space. Then I did something similar with a mat for the doggos.

 

Replaced stock skid plate. I had repainted them a month ago but wasn't happy with the result and had been kicking around idea of upgrading for awhile and got the rci plate on sale.

 

Finished my onboard air. Installed the compressor a couple months ago. Added a flush mount power button. Installed a quick connect coupler on the front and rear bumper. Installed a 4.5 gallon water tank. Plumbed the air lines to both couplers and an inline regulator for the water. Used a shut off valve before the regulator so I'm not pumping air into the water tank when airing up tires. And, a check valve at the tank.

 

Not really, but this way I can always just remove the covers and it is ready.

 

Do you have a link for that? Looks very nice.

How do you like the KMC trail?

 

That's a smart idea.

 

Yep, HU was a direct fit

 

That is some seriously nice work!

It was actually yesterday, but yeah, broke the antenna off. Not on purpose of course. Just being stupid
