What did you do to your truck this weekend? NICE WEATHER MODS! (PICS)

Well up here in the North East (Maine) we had excellent weather this weekend! 60 degrees and sun on SAT and SUN!

What (If anything did you do to your tuck this weekend before the cold weather comes)?

I have another thread around here about a cheaper dyna mat/raamat subsititute:

rear wall: before




after:



also did the backup cam on anytime switch mod:

Back up and bed lights!

What did you guys do to your trucks this weekend?











I went for an 80 mph ride after the install and i can say that it's cut down on cabin noise about 40% (installed on fron doors and rear cabin wall)...still need to do the floor and access cab doors)

 

Nice. I drove slower do to a speeding ticket. 6 yr ticket free record gone, because I had to pass a slower driver on the right. Bad timing. Hmm that was 16hrs ago.

 

Ive been thinking about adding some insulation for some better noise reduction......can you really tell a diff and how much.....also I replaced my bulbs in my cluster, replaced my power steering return hose(small leak), and a detailed washed.

 

Washed it, vacuumed the interior, put the all weather mats in, put the snow tires on, swapped the washer fluid with de-icer. Pretty much just got it ready for winter.

 

Typical weekend wash. Due for a 3 month wax interval next weekend.

I'm considering painting (with Plastidip) the front lower valence next weekend.

 

I put my Wet okoles on.

 

looking good! are we the only ones who worked on our turcks this weekend?

 

5100's and Eibachs, then tons of yard work

 

I washed the heck out of mine! but found some tar/black crap that wont come off on the driver door....and my dad had my claybar kit, Ill be clay'ing it today

 

While Offroading This Weekend:

-I lost the power steering fluid cap which allowed dirt to get into the reservoir and now it whines.
-Broke the Clips on the Front right fender
-My wheel compressed into the well, caught the HID fog light wires, and ripped out the harness. So now my fog lights arent working

 

Picked up a mattress and new cook top for the kitchen. Then we threw our bicycles in it and headed for the local trail (Illinois Prairie Path.) Ordinarily we ride to the trails, but there is road construction that makes a bad crossing a death defying dash.

For the truck, I resolved to get a Scangauge and bicycle fork mounts to make carrying bikes look more civilized. I also looked up the strength of the bed channels and I'm impressed - they'll take 400 lb tension each! I could find no information about the pockets that hold a 1x8 across the bed.

 

I welded on my Stubbs sliders

 

Question to OP, what do you do to get the backup camera on anytime?

 

I did both the Anytime Fog Mod and hardwired my GPS! I love me some TW!!!!!

 

I washed and waxed the Taco and the 4Runner.......now I'm sore and tired but it needed done before the winter salt starts flying.

 

I'm doing the fog mod tomorrow, how easy was it?

 

I was eyeing up that same set of lights you have in the first pic. I'm assuming you'll use those for your bed light mod next week...

Make sure to do a good install DIY post. I'll wait for you to do yours, so I can see how you do the install.

Looking good!

 

yes, i'll be using those leds in the small bed storage cubbys

 

I installed my USA Spec Pa-15 toy ipod controller. Thanks to all the info on the site I was able to knock it out in about 30 minutes. Thanks TW!
