What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I’ll know soon enough.

 

I can’t decided. Black or bronze wheels. Buy scs again or try something different.

 

Do white.

 

Was into the mid minus 40s in central Alberta over the weekend. That’s before windchill.
Block heaters highly recommended.
We were only around minus 30-25 Celsius here in the Kootenays, so the Tacos were fine; I had already made sure both had been filled with the minus 49 windshield wiper fluid, and full tanks of fuel.

 

Man I thought about that hard. But brake dust lol. My 240 has white -_-

 

We keep a spray bottle full of -49 windshield fluid inside the front door so it’s at room temperature. Spraying it on the windshield and wipers while the truck warms up really helps.

 

I haven’t had any issues removing/installing down to -20f but it’s been a minute since we got anything worse than that

This is a great solution I completely forgot about because I don’t use it for deicing wipers. It’d work perfect for that!
I move mine to the cab of the truck on long trips in the snow to clean off the led headlights when frozen or dirty

 

I silicone spray the door seals every fall to prevent the doors from freezing up.

 

@douglas_ngo Very nice looking ride.Who is the bumper manufacturer? Thanks!

 

Try silicone spray on the wiper blades or there is a type that has silicon in the blade.

 

Bronze

 

Never heard of it until now— did a quick search and first answer says 0.4% for net worth of $30mil or more; if that’s the case I’m well under that but maybe if I hit the powerball then they’d take a little chunk of money since I’d for sure get out of here if I had those means

 

Southern Style Off-road
Slimline bumper with stage 2 high clearance wings.

 

I recall SSO is under new management, with only promises of honoring "gift cards" for un-delivered orders, until someone decides if they are still manufacturing.

 

Just add some Kahlúa and you've got a cheap White Russian, Gary!

 

Finally got my DRL/HL tap built thanks to caribe makaira and was able to tie the backlight to my ditch lights and the grille lights into it.

 

Yeah but these trucks don’t put off near as much brake dust

 

Installed the Apex Designs RCV-Rapid Connect Valve. Took only a few minutes to install. As simple as using the included tool to remove the stock valve core and install the RCV.

295/70r17 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T went from 32 psi down to 15 psi in only 40 seconds.
They add a little extra length to the stock stem, but I’m not worried about it as I’m not trying to be some gnarly rock crawler guy. Just looking for that softer ride.

 

This is what I used on my Diode Dynamics SS3 ditch lights:

My original post about it is here

I can't find the exact one I ordered, you'll probably have to contact them about it, but it's a Hurst T-handle (for automatic) from https://core-shifters.com/

To keep the leather collar down, I just went to Lowe's and got some oversize washers and multi-pack of rubber grommets (varying sizes). Once I found the perfect size washer to hold down the collar, with a grommet that fit snugly in the washer, I placed it over the shift rod. Cost probably $3 and I haven't messed with it since.
