What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Installed some Rokblokz mud flaps

 

Haha, looking good.

 

Hauled 1080 lbs from homey depot, 18 x 60lbs. Installing 7 fence posts today and tomorrow.

 

Installed the Meso V2 Stealth Pro shift knob putting ECT and my lightbar at my fingertips

 

Installed Clazzio leather seat covers today. Took 3 hours just to do the front seats.

 

Installed new softopper today and the decked yesterday.

 

looks great! Welcome to TW!

 

Thank you very much, use to be a member a while back...after some life changes, and two different makes of trucks I'm back in an old faithful.

 

Just installed a Sherpa Teton roof rack on my access cab. A little unnerving drilling holes into the roof channels but it wasn’t that bad. Took me three years to finally get the nerve up to do it. And the rack looks pretty sweet.

 

These guys just showed up today

 

Nice rack! BTW, what is the small light (?) on the front of the side mirror? Was that a Toyota option or after-market? It looks ‘factory’.

 

Finally got a light bar tossed on the martin offroad roof rack. The baja Onyx6 light bar is bright as $&@!.

 

If the gates are open, I’m a goin’.
Got her out today before some major work gets done. Incredible what these things are capable of right off the assembly line but excited to see what it can do with some extra love.

 

Ohhhh that’s a big day

 

What uca's are you going with?

 

Absolutely LOVE that plate!
It is the right sense of humor.
It is the right state.
Is is the right support.

And on a super clean truck. I'll keep an eye out for that one on the road.
That backup light next to it is the chef's kiss of perfection! Did you just splice it in or did you run a relay?

 

I was thinking Accutune but there are so many on the market and I have not really looked at any yet. I don't have any plans to throw these on until probably late spring or early summer so plenty of time to decide.

 

Ditch lights. (I like 'em cuz you can reach out the window and aim it if you want.)


(Oops, not who you asked. Answered cuz I have them too.)

 

So that seemed to fix that issue, now I've got another rotational grind/clunk sound at slow speeds around 9mph. Braking, accelerating, turning, straight. Most noticed during 3pt turns. Feel it in the floorboard/pedals and a little in the steering wheel, and that helps you hear it. You can barely hear it from the passenger seat, but it is audible.

This may have been happening before ECGS bearing, but didn't notice it over that noise. Drives without noise faster on main roads and completely fine on freeway.

Anyone have any ideas what that could be? Crawled under, pushed the driveshafts, seem not to budge. The CVs into the front diff have a little bit of play, could it be that?

It's different than the noise from the new coils, when parked/driving you can hear them squeak, but they've got 300 miles, so I assume that will settle out. The noise I'm referring to doesn't happen while stopped and rocking the truck.

Another note, during the OME MT64 install, I installed a driveline spacer to lower and help the angle.

Going to put it on the lift Sunday, any suggestions on things to check/tighten would be appreciated!

 

If CVs don't have play, you have a problem. The intermediate axle is supposed to move freely.
