What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Stage 1 - seats removed

2022, TRD OR

I have the utility panel and tray soaking in some 303 while I’m getting ready to sound deaden the rear wall and floor behind the seats.

My plan is to build a custom cab for the back that is lockable and lighted inside.

 

He likes gifs, never changing his brake fluids, and long walks on the beach, (shoes on).

 

You forgot the paisley socks on the beach.

 

Dry sandwiches.

 

I don't know WTF he's doing. Here's his response to my DM. I think he's gotta be FOS.

Maybe he's just eager to pay more taxes with the eBay seller threshold for income tax going down to $600 from $20,000 a year tomorrow.

 

Maybe he doesn’t know how to do anything except change the price on his ad?

Maybe he’s laundering money for the mob?

 

Rear differential done yesterday, manual trans today.... Transfer case next (waiting on a quart to get to me), and I'll hold on the front till i have new drain plugs (assuming i can get the fill plug out without issue....). for anyone keeping score, both factory fills of the rear diff and transmission were low compared to the volume that went back in. Service being done at 60k (yea, i know i'm a bit delinquent here to some), fluid looked great, no sparkles, and i have no issues (sound or difficulty shifting) i'm looking for resolve with fresh gear oil.

Hope all had a great Christmas, here's to the end of the year and a great 2025

Took mine in for TPMS sensor(s) not reading. They replaced one sensor. Told me the light would go off after 20 miles. Light still on...... Fun!

Now I get to be a comeback.

Coincidentally the right rear sensor they replaced is also on a tire that is losing 5-8 psi over a week or two time period, maybe it's temp drops down into the 20s..... they did dunk the wheel and tire but didn't see any leaks.

 

You could always try soapy water in a spray bottle to see if there is a leak.

 

Maybe so. Maybe it's Calinflation. I'm shocked his feedback is so high, 99.6%.

 

Got my Christmas gift all set up!

How long after you had the truck did you remove the stickers? I’m worried it’ll mess my paint up mines a 2021

 

Damn!

 

I’m getting ready to head out and install this new mod I saw on Kloie’s video. It’s going to turn off the license plate lights when I go into reverse, hopefully get rid of the glare in my back up camera. The harness is the brain child of a couple guys on TW. I will give a shout out when I remember their names.

 

edit; her name is Khloe. Sucks getting old.

 

Wow this sounds nice got a link?

 

FBC ... @Puppypunter and @daveeasa have been known to produce some occasional useful products ...

 

Can't speak for my man, but I just removed mines on a 21 Silver Sky Metallic and there was light ghosting. I used the 3M rubber wheel in a DeWalt drill. Cleaned it up with mineral spirits and hit it with Mequiars cleaner wax. Looks good enough.
