Florida B.S. Thread

I would but I'll have to check with the GF since I'm headed to Gulches for a whole weekend already

 

Buy her something nice take her to dinner first before asking

 

I am too lol. Plus the weekend before (27feb) I'm getting married lol.

 

I got a question for you guys. When I installed my 3" blocks I started getting vibes on take off. It happens at around 10 mph and it only lasts for a second or so, if I take off really slow it doesn't happen.
My driveshaft is all the way in, more so then when I had just the 1.5" block so it's not that, so is it the carrier bearing?
My steering wheel is also a bit cocked to the right when driving straight, but that just could be my alignment out.

 

Get your alignment checked and that should fix some issues. That was my issue on my gen2 for a day and a half. Then I realized I hadn't gotten it aligned after installing a DB lol

 

Yea I guess I'll do that. I already had it aligned after installing the 5100s but didn't think I needed to after rear lift but it couldn't hurt.

 

Got a question guys, since I'm still fairly new to this whole wiring thing, with the blade fuses in this new harness, the headlight wire only has one going from it, I then have one of the wires from the headlights going straight to it. Then the other 2 wires go to the column switch then to ground completing the circuit. But, the thing I'm wondering about is since there's only one wire coming from the blade fuse, is that fuse operating properly? Or should I crimp a wire in the other spot and go to ground or something?

Get your alignment checked and probably would be best to try a carrier bearing drop

 

I need a carrier bearing drop too, i think. Where can I get one?

 

Old man emu - carrier bearing drop
Toytec - axle shims
4crawler - driveshaft spacers

 

I has lights

 

Sounds like there's a relay involved somewhere, can you confirm?

 

according to the FSM wiring diagram there is supposed to be a headlight relay, only problem with that relay is that it requires a constant hot wire and the headlight wire is a hot wire...so i dont see a point in having 2 hot wires when the FSM says there should only be one. in the diagram one wire from the relay goes to the headlights, one to the fuses which are not hot, and one goes to a constant hot. I got the headlights working without the relay, now with the tailights since there is only one wire coming from there, I was able to use the cigarette lighter fuse as a constant hot for the relay. everything works...it's just im unsure if it's connected properly....im pretty sure theres supposed to be another wire or something

 

You need to be using a relay with the headlights. Wire it per the FSM.

 

Here's the headlight/taillight portion of the wiring in the fsm

 

You going to get this trans or naw

 

@ckeene9 that's what I'm trying to do....I'm just lost. The red wire here is the headlight wire coming from the headlight fuse and as you can see, there is only one wire and the other side is empty. The issue im running into is that wire is the constant hot wire and as per the FSM that wire shouldnt be. theres a separate wire that goes to power from the relay...that's where im lost....should I just connect another wire and run it to the relay power? but then what would I do with the RL wire that is supposed to go to power?

holy shit lol, YES, im coming to citrus damnit

 

Well im not so........

 

So I want a flat bed but can't find Amy that look good. Kinda want to go the way Todd did and keep the sides but dovetail it slightly. @allenfab what ya think.

I haven't found a double cab 2nd gen I like yet

 

You coming past polk anytime?
