What did ya cut with? Jig saw or reciprocating ?

 

Adjusted my sliders so they don't hit the cab while on road, then spent about 4 hours this afternoon rolling around at 15 psi. It was a mixed bag of pretty rough Forest Service road and deep spring snow - half rotten/ half partially frozen. Didn't take any pics - they'd look the same as 2 days ago, which got posted on here.

 

This weekend I finally installed my us off-road winch bumper, winch TBD and a pair of alcan 8 leaf packs and Billy 5100s on the back end.

Assuming I can move any partof my body tomorrow after that much time rolling around and kneeling on concrete, I've got some 5100s and ome884s to go on the front Friday.

 

How did you wire it up to the remote? Any pics? Thanks.

 

What started as replacing the hubs has turned into refurbish and clean everything...



Have to repaint a few components as well. New England weather doesn't like vehicles.

 

Mine is custom made because I live in Mexico City, shipping is very expensive... I took the idea from Relentless Fabrication HC bumper!

 

Sweet. ya how did you wire it up. Would love to do this

Busy weekend! Changed oil using Mobil 1 0w-20 & Toyota filter then so.how got suckered in to helping pick up a pool my sister found on Craigslist. She didn't tell me we'd have to tear it down first! Lol. Also un plastidipped my center caps!

 

I did both. Had the noodles lying around so I stuck them in before I sealed the tubes.

 

Just a little spray paint

 

It's very simple, there are a couple of threads on here already, the hardest part for me was deciding where to mount the switch. This switch is very flush and allowed it to be installed on the radio bezel and not interfere with removing the A/C Control Panel. I double checked by adding several thicknesses of blue painter's tape to the area where I wanted to install the switch just to make sure.

To wire it to the garage door remote all that I did was make a pigtail of two wires off of the switch into two bayonet splices so that I could remove the radio bezel if I wanted to. Then ran two wires from the pigtail bayonet splices across to that useless bin by the driver side door. I left plenty of slack in the wire, maybe 18-24 inches, opened up the casing on the garage door opener remote and soldered the wires to the backside of the switch, wrapped up the excess wire into a circle, secured with zip ties, and placed the remote guts in the now useful bin. Now if you need to get to the remote to change the battery or if something in the 'system' fails there is very quick and easy access to it.

If pictures are needed I can take some pictures this evening.

 

Late posting, but Saturday we got the oil and filter changed and a good hand washing. Inspected everything underneath. My four legged supervisor was exhausted!

Then Saturday evening I put the vent visors on. I know, she aint much, but she's mine!

 

That 4legged supervisor looks worn out

 

Lol! He was. Following daddy around and around the truck and back and forth, in and out of the garage... Brutal work! He kept me on task. It was an all day job.
