What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

So the bolts on my methods rusted after two years so I decided to change them. Now I can’t decide on what color I wanna stick with. Only one set is painted red and two are blue. Bouta prep the last set now.

Metallic blue or bright red to match the truck accents.

 

The red looks good with that pro logo under the mirror. I'd vote red. What do you have on the truck that is blue?

 

Nothing at all. Just thought it would look cool and different but I’m starting to lean towards red

 

Red on the drivers side
Blue on the passenger side

Then see how long it takes for someone else to notice

 

Threw some punches on the side of my cooler shroud.

 

Hit 3k last night. Have had the truck for almost 2 months. Lol it's crazy to me how oil change is at 10k. I'm used to 3-5k.

 

Are you a 4 cyl?

 

6 cyl

 

Most 6 cylinders are every 5k

 

Interesting. I'll have to ask the dealer if they can change the oil when I take it in for the 5k. Debating doing everything myself but might as well wait. Lol

 

Swapped out my stock springs and AAL for an All-Pro leaf pack. Also did u-bolt flip with the active off-road timbrens; mounted upside down from the top to help keep out snow/ice/mud/etc... (idea borrowed from someone else on TW, I just don't remember who or where I'd seen it now).

 

Got a 'paint' job of sorts...(thanks to Hurricane Harvey).
Before and after.
Got the orange pumpkin sprayed with Linex...$695 later.
And that's the 'new' truck...not a paint job. ; )

 

Are you originally from Florida?

 

Originally from Virginia....got as fast as I could to Texas though...when I was 5 yrs old. Spent some time in Florida...work...NASA at the Cape...and surfing.

 

Installed BajaDesigns Squadron Sport.

 

They will, but they'll probably charge you. Mine quoted me $70. er... no thanks. I'll do it myself.

 

Wtf. Rather buy the stuff myself & change it lol only issue I could see is if for whatever reason something happens & i get blamed

 

Nicely done! Our Plug and Play Fog Pocket Kit and Squadron Sport Pair look great on the truck.

Got a Smittybuilt receiver hitch D-Ring off Amazon for $33. Just in case I need to pull someone out or more likely when someone bumps into me. Took extra pics of my cheap accessory because I was curious how far it stuck out before I bought it.

 

@SurfratTX I like the new lok on the cap
