Those shrink wrap labels are awesome, i still havent invested in one yet, though I probably should. I went the old school sharpie route and I marked the connections male and female ends since i use the same connectors for all my accessories. It helps should one ever get disconnected or i need to...
Your build is turning out awesome! I may have missed it but where did you place your weboost internal antenna? I have a weboost in my other vehicle and may just buy antennas for the truck and just move the unit back and forth.
Appreciate the kind words! I was hoping to have more done on the truck, but i got sucked into another car build. Now that its basically wrapped up, im back to truck modding!
Cheers!
Ive had a peragon on my previous truck. It was ok but the cons outweighed the pros:
Pros:
-Fairly easy to take panel off when needing full bed
-Secure with minimal water intrusion
Cons:
-best of luck if stuff slides toward the cab side of the bed, you will have to crawl in retrieve because...
Apologies to Trail wagon, i totally missed his original questions.
The top part off the fuse panel actually comes off and you can splice into the wire bundle below. I tapped (cut and splice solder) off the the interior dash cig socket. Chose this for primarily because I dont like tapping into...
Yeah i was thinking it was going to be plug and play when i ordered them, my first attempt i gave up and sat on the install for 4 months. Im curious what AEV uses/recommends? I should have checked but I really wanted the back light functionality.
The backlight I would say is on par with the...
I ran into the same issue with my order. The original plan was to have a red backlight on the driver side and a amber back light on the passenger (chase light). After months of waiting I finally called them and they said that individual lights would take time, but they had a set of red in stock...
Update on the AEV rear bumper. I finally got around to installing rear backup/“euro fog” in the bumper openings. Ive been a long time Baja Design fan but decided to try something new.
This go around I ended up going with Diode Dynamic SS3 Pro with combo lens and red back lighting. I have been...
The front reservoir mounts werent from CJC, they are a King part. My rear shock guard were from CJC and were PC’d black. I chose to paint the front purely for aesthetics, theyve held up pretty well (scuffed, 4 coats etching primer, 4 coats paint)
Ive been down this exact same path, before I ended up with my setup. Couple of insights based on experience of working on various rigs with the following systems:
-Airride (full setup) using their controller, is finicky and glitchy. Needs a separate remote or app (not sure if it was their...
Thanks for the kind words!
They are actually dead even when filling, I made sure to make both lines equal length (which helps with that, in my mind at least)
When filling I just eyeball, but if i need to take precise readings or make adjustments to one side, i have Schrader valves in place of...
I have the bezel (has the park sensors) and mounting brackets, if someone needs it. I switched to the baja design squadrons. Im in the greater seattle area.
Got them from Filthy Motorsports, best customer service ive ever received, spoke with Ben (owner) for over an hour and he explained everything and answered all the questions i had.
Im running Kings w/ resi (front and rear) with factory coils, and so far they have been awesome! No increase in ride height. They were tuned for the PW.
A bus bar would be equally effective, and will allow you to have a place to ground outside of the switchpros setup. I went this route just to keep to keep it clean. I have a slight modification planned to the setup but havent got around to it yet. Will be replacing the common ground with a...
Thanks for the kind words! I went through the same thought process and analysis when i was deciding on the compressor placement. If i were to put inside the cab i would have followed el_barto’s install, you should check it out.
