What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Wow! I have the predator steps that came with mine, which I'm just fine with, but I like the looks of these. Do you have specifics?

 

N-Fab Podiums. In black because chrome is nasty.

Chrome had it's day.

 

Just got the Gladiator Cargo Net in the mail. Super good quality. Will add pictures when it’s on next week for camping.

 

That's amazing that they made the fins in the back... My dad and his parents were lucky that they were in those years when those cars came out.

Lot of room and headroom... I usually see chevy bel air sometimes around here.

My grandmother had Chevelle.. I like that car.

My dad had Oldsmobile 442. Nice car.

I usually see "Smokey the Bandit" Trans Am everyday.

 

Installed my Meso start button and and black ring. Waiting on 4x4 and shift trim to come back in stock. Didn’t want the full kit since my center doesn’t have chrome. Took 5 minutes start to finish
(Ps. Had to include the pew pew in the picture since everyone likes a little gun porn)

 

Put these D-Ring shackles on my factory bumper:

 

BPF mounts?

 

Do a cannonball!

 

I believe they’re made by AMI, here’s the link to where I bought them on Amazon. Actually 11% cheaper now than when I bought them a couple weeks ago, shucks. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07PGLK9CD?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

 

Finally installed the rear body armor bumper. Its heavy as a mf!!

 

What size and what kind of bolts do you use for the tow points? Something like Grade-8?

 

Interesting. Have you used them as tow points?

 

Not yet, I just got them on there. I was happy with the brackets with nice looking welds and substantiated heft. I’ve read the comments about their viability as actual tow points, my hope is I won’t ever have to test it! Maybe someone else can chime in with experience?

 

I re-used the bolts that held the original hook, I don’t know what grade the factory uses but seemed to work out okay. Would you recommend a replacement for more strength? I really don’t intent to take these to task but if I could add more strength for a few bucks in case I’d be down to do that.

 

Cool. Thanks for the reply and they look great. I’m gonna look into these. I don’t want to spend money on a bumper at the moment, but would love some front recovery options as a “just in case”.

 

I'm going to have to look at these as well! I never knew they even made something like this.

 

Tandem 612 Charlies, gunmetal. 17x8.5, -12 offset. 23 lbs. Love these wheels! After a series of black wheels I was ready for something new.

 

I ordered some last week. Due to arrive tomorrow. What size bolts did you use? I don't think they come with bolts.

 

Looks great! I did mine a few weeks ago.
