What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[IanB]

Any problem with squeaks?? I was thinking about getting some extra lube from Energy Suspensions.

If you get the black bushings, they are graphite impregnated/self lubricating. Much more resistant to squeaks than the red ones.

 

[ALBPM]

Yup, ordered the Black ones...

Today I did a mod on my Hella 500 lights. I ordered an extra set of the clear
plastic covers and a set of yellow Hella’s Color Shieldz™.

Now, I can have Yellow fog/Snow lights when needed and then switch back to the clear covers for good weather.


Yellow pair on and clear sitting on the ARB.

I spent the afternoon replacing my CV after a rough trip off-roading. I went with a pretty aggressive rigs on Saturday and maybe shouldn't have. Broke the CV 10 minutes into a two hour ride and learned a lot finishing out with only the rear wheels. Unfortunately for the guy in front of me I had to hook up with the recovery strap about a dozen times. Here's a pic of one of the stucks but not the one that broke the CV. There's also picture of the rig in front of me to give you an idea of the group. He was rolling with 42" tires on modified hummer wheels. He was the monster of the group but a lot of the guys were just a step down from him.

I am working on one now. Have to pass my petroleum geology test first . However, you should have one by the end of the day on my build thread.

I bought a trutrac LSD for the front diff today, no idea when I'll get around to installing that, doesn't really matter so long as it's before next winter. Now to address the rear diff...

 

[thorridder]

[w650gb500]

I bought some FJ wheels/tires for my ride. Hopefully I'll get a chance to balance/wash/wax them tomorrow and throw them on.
