Interesting product! ..Is there a weight rating if I used as a bench to sit on around the camp fire?
Perhaps the next version could have optional adjustable table legs for the overland crowd, and maybe enclosed soft shelving similar to other camp tables on amazon.
How much clearance is...
It almost looks like they could be removed and re-installed upside down to gain clearace instead of cutting...
..enjoying the thread, Keep the pics coming!
when I wanted to add lights to a bike rack, I used a flat tow wire harness that plugs in between the driver's tail light and harness and modified it to get the reverse lights working (added wire and 5-pin connector).
I bought the cheaper 'used' version from amazon since I was going to modify...
Probably better to wait for someone more knowledgable about these things, but my understanding is that the aux battery & cables are getting power from the main 12v system anytime the vehicle is running, so as long as you are switching the device off with the main 12v ignition, It probably...
I've been running 5-beta since last week, and so far it seems much better than the 4 that was giving me trouble with cutting over the left line on long sweeping left turns. 4 also had mild ping pong for me, which disappeared with 5. I don't recall which model 4 was using, but it was the...

I started with a similar ball mount from a company that charges way too much $$, only to find out that the ball receiver on the charger I had was a different size... did some searching and found a nice alloy adapter.. I like my setup, but could have saved myself alot of headache if this was...
I recently replaced the front rotors and pads with a kit from amazon... It seemed like a good value and similar marketing specs to some of the more commonly suggested products I looked into, but I wasn't aware of these ratings. Is the FF on the end of the part number below likely the friction...
Give the crash bars a few taps with a 2lb sledge... they will move a bit as they are bolted on, and it might resolve your rub.
I have a very similar setup now, and no rub, but I did tap the crash bars out a bit when I had the stock 20's and spacers
I replaced mine with some bolts recommended on a few amazon reviews.... one bolt stretched at about 22 ft lbs... was able to get it out before it broke. Definitely don't follow the reviews on amazon! :rolleyes:
The sight glass was a good suggestion:
Wheels and tires a few weeks ago...
Over the weekend it was new front brakes:
Old ones with 83k.. lots of pad, but suspect warped rotors d/t pulsing coming down the mountains in recent months:
...a little clean up before the new stuff goes on:
..and some shiny new stuff:
I've seen mixed reports on adding spacers to a 6112 strut kit; some say its harsh others say not.
Another option would be to replace the knuckle with a taller one from a ford tremor, icon, or rough country (RC only sells it with the strut kit on the site, but try calling? )
I had issues with rough idle after replacing one of mine. I suspected my torque wrench was not working properly and was able to confirm, but had to drive the truck to the store to get a new torque wrench. replacing the torque wrench and fixing the torque / indexing solved my issues.
I just went from a 35 to a 285/75r17 (34) for that exact reason.... 10 lbs lighter per tire (and lighter method beadgrip wheels) for a small loss of height and hopefully better fuel range / MPGs. I lost about 6mpg when I put the 65lb 35s on (I confirmed 53# per tire for the 34s on my scale)
