TomTom's '03 TRD Xtra Cab (SOLD!)

Ya, that oil, or a dry moly lube spray works good. We use the spray, but both work. NEVER put WD 40 or any non teflon/dry lube on them. It will wear out the liner quicker.

This is what we use

how often?

 

Some peeps say every 500 miles. Others do it when they squeak. I have awesome bicycle chain lube I use on mine (Boeshield). I put it on every so often when I damn WELL FEEL LIKE IT. You kids get off my lawn!

Practicing for when I become an old fart.

 

Towing ended up being $69 dollars so totally not worth the hassle of dragging you all the way over here and trying to wrestle it onto the trailer.

 

With customers we usually give them a spray when ever they come in, just cause we do not know when we will see them again. But really, only when it squeeks or every oil change, unless you have a good trip on them or some bad weather/conditions.

 

Went off-roading today. Did a little mudding as well even though I had no desire to.



Mud sprayed up over the cab and hit the spare tire in the back:



Parked in a spot where i only had 3 wheels on the ground:


Is it time for some Icons in the rear?

 

I need you to make me one of these mounts!

 

16ga. sheet steal, a blue sea fuse box, some spray-on bed liner and a few screws. Good to go.

 

Did you put a breaker in line with it?

 

No sir. Figure if fuses blow, fuses blow.

A BIG thanks to SGT Taco for helping me get the compressor and locker switches wired in.



I have to order some different switches so the lights light up the same and I need to figure out how to make the switch mounts fit better but they work.

Tested out the front locker on a side street near my apartment. Definitely could feel the front end fighting when I got anywhere off a straight line.

Next project is to finish out wiring the off-road and fog light switches then get them aimed. So happy right now.

 

Slowly sinking in, I finally have front and rear lockers.

 

Tested how well the locker held pressure today.



1st cycle happened at 23 min, 2nd cycle at the 42.5 min mark.

I think what I thought was too much teflon tape was enough.

 

How did you gauge this?

 

With a stopwatch.

 

Hummm... Really?

 

Scott, ordered various Carling switch panels. Should tidy up the switch mounting. Tracking down the ABS plastic for the clock hole.

You think 1/8" thick stuff will work?

 

I think that would work, that's what we used at Best Buy for installs.
OASN... Getting my tires mounted on those rims in the am by Silas... Excited to see what it will look like!

 

Nice! Snap some pics. If I didn't have to work, I'd stop in

 

idk these things lol
