What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[A.Wilson013]

Winterized the paint today...

Wash, Clay, Machine Polish, Machine Wax, Hand Wax.

Took a few hours, but it was well worth it... It's dark now, so pictures tomorrow. =)

Fixed a paint spot today on the top of the passenger side rear door that has bugged me since I got it.
I did this with spray paint and I don't claim to have any skill in auto body paint but this came out decent.

Where did you order your new gears from?

 

[Rocky5000100]

Painted the grayed out rear bumper trim piece. The painted pic is after the last coat, it looks even once it dried and looks great. I used Satin Black paint.

I will post up pictures installed tomorrow.

Where did you order your new gears from?

from ECGS

Toyota 8" V6/Turbo/E-Locker Gears, Install Kits, Carriers, Spider Gears - Precision, Yukon, Motive, Lockright, ARB

You'll need the gears (I bought Nitro), master or pinion install kit (I just bought pinion kit), and I'd suggest a solid pinion bearing spacer.

 

[Atrox Caeda]

Built some sliders... finally.

Today I replaces my broken power antenna and cleaned off my MAF sensor and cleaned out my TB. To the looks of it the TB had never been done before.

Did my lift with a few buddies ( couple of pics below) , going to have to start a build thread for this bad boy. After 6 hours, Chick Fil a for breakfast, Beer and pizza for lunch, we have lift off!!!

• OME lift
• LBJs
• Found out I need a new CV
• Found out my swaybar links snapped at the bolts
• Went to get an alignment, still have camber and veers right :Cry:
• Pop at full turn; need to grease steering bump stops?

 

[JoeT4R]

Yesterday, did the diff breather mod and changed the oil. Also found out my front left CV boot may need replacing FML. Today clean up the engine bay a second time (never going mudding again) then power washed the front skids (still off from oil change) and bought some new bolts since several were missing on the skids.

Also, was it just me or is the oil change on this thing a total PITA? The filter was damn near impossible to get to with out having to twist my hand in about 5 different ways.

We all say we're never going mudding again! Haha

 

[AntiVenom]

i continue to miss her today, while she was at the shop getting the locker installed. :-(

New struts on the rear hatch today! Yay!:thumb:

 

[TheKorstjens]

New plugs and wires...pcv valve...fuel filter. Repainted roof rack...since it is a two piece and I dont have access to a welder I epoxed the joints and made anew mounts to get it lower to the truck.
