What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I'm most concerned with the scoop install. At a glance it looks like it may over the radiator cap. But, it's such a simple on/off it may not concern me. I'll note more when I take a closer look tomorrow.

 

It's been well researched that performance gains dont exist here. To me, it was a cosmetic and audible upgrade. I found the aFe under $300, so pulled the trigger. Not everyone's brand if Vodka.

 

Focal for me. Components all 4 doors.

 

Thanks guys. This is some good info with model numbers.

 

Installed these 2-ways in the access cab doors. Can't find the box for the same set of 3-ways I installed in the front doors.

 

Are they snowflake rated?

 

Found this thread with some good info on speaker upgrades.

Yeah it should habe been hteeare. Weird. Tried it again. Glitch in matrix i guess.

 

Yep, weird. I was gonna say I’m no snowflake...I’m a coonass then I figured I would hurt someone’s feelings. Oh well. But you know the real deal.

 

Coolant replacement happens once every 5-6 years. Filter cleaning might be more frequent depending on how dusty your trails are.

 

I love mine, after install I had better throttle response. And ya I like the sound.

 

Can anyone upload sound bite after replacing the OEM breather with the aFe?

 

You can still access the radiator cap, atleast I can on my 2017.

 

Drove an hr out to XO Fab in Enumclaw WA today to pick up a slider kit that I bought for $160 on Black Friday. I am going to weld the tubing and paint or powdercoat.

Before jumping on this deal I couldn't find 1 3/4 x .120 dom tubing 80" for anywhere close to this price.

I'm a beginner diy. Cant to see how this turns out.

 

Better picture minus the OR stickers. White balance is way off though. The LED’s are far more white in person. Stupid iPhone.

 

Ya I can see it looking good with cement. But not so much with the storm trooper look I have going on(didn't plan it that way, it just sort of happened.) But maybe the solid black ring may be a bit too intrusive and not flow with the lines as well as it does from white, to chrome, to charcoal/metallic

 

Got rear ended! Yee-fuckin-haw!

Luckily no damage to my rig but my hitch punched a hole in the guys grille

 

Forget the powder coat and go with POR15...best stuff in the world. I put 4 coats on mine and then sprayed it with bed coating to give it some texture. You'll dent your tubes before any will flake off.

 

That's and awesome idea, my trim color coating is all ready starting to rub away from where I rest my leg, and I only bought it new in May. Pretty disappointed with the quality of the coating.

 

I did that for my pointy elbows. Never crossed my mind to do it for my boney legs. Great idea!
