What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Just ordered this. Pretty cool for $10 and free shipping.

Help me out with that antenna mount? I have CBI ditch brackets, but I can't find the antenna extension on their website.

Nice radio! My 3TPAM ships tomorrow, I'm pretty excited about it.

 

RTT came in today. I'm about to be GLAMPING.

 

Message Mike, @eccracer104 he works for AutoAnything and will fix you up.

Or he has a thread you can get ahold of him.

This guy makes a good decal for your back glass.

brackets are hand made out of flat bar stock from home depo, 1” wide by 1/8th thick I believe. Mounts are quick fists which you can get anywhere online and hardware came from home depot to mount to accessory rail blocks. Little paint and primer to prevent rust and look good.

 

Is there a known thread outlining the blacking out of the chrome inside the back tail lights? That chrome has got to go.

 

Good luck...

Be advised, they have to be cut open.

Two questions:

Did you drill into your Diamondback Cover to mount your crossbars, or did you use something like KB Voodoo’s rack system and mount the bars from underneath?

Do you still have any fold with the DBC, or is it pretty stationary now with the bars and RTT on top?

 

Diamondback came yesterday! I will upload a installed picture soon with my tool set up. I ordered a headache rack the same day but UPS failed me yet again, package lost somewhere in the wild world of shipping. I’ll also be adding a cross bin and back rack as soon as possible too

 

Bring on the dead hookers!

 

Spend more than I thought or maybe not?
Spent $3464.23 OTD with install for a Super Sport Model SnugTop.
Has a few upgrades and should take 4 to 5 weeks to arrive.
I will post pic's once installed.

 

@45longcolt
The simplest and least expensive way would be to find someone (like me for example) who LIKES the 2020 chromed tail lights, and work out a trade. Too bad you don't live close by.

Suggestion: Put a trade feeler in the 3rd gen BST subforum.

 

That's very nice, but I like my dealer's license plate frame too much !

 

1. I did drill into my DB cover to mount the front runner tracks. It was one of the harder things I've had to convince myself to do, but it had to be done. I'm not a fan of the KB Voodoo rack system.

2. If the tent is on there, there's no folding of the DB cover, which is probably the number 1 con to this setup. Other than that it's pretty sweet though.

 

Agreed. But I'm just not there. Yet...

 

Got my rear diff breather mod supplies. Going to relocate to behind driver side tail light. Small weekend project

 

A good antenna mount option for those who don't have or need ditch lights is Victory 4x4's VT3CB-BARE antenna mount.


And there are others . . . I bet you can get some good ideas here.

Some 17's over here

 

Love your Yosemite Sam hitch cover! I have one of those also.
