Colorado B.S. Thread

is it better than this?

 

Oh yea I like the way this man works

 

So part of the problem, which you can read about if you take that thread back a few pages, is good ole Ben hasn't been on TW for a while. So I don't know if you'll hear from him.

From what I remember, theres one metal piece that needs fab'ed. Other than that I think we need to get some cable, switch, electrical stuff, and I'm not sure what else. When I have some time in the next few days I'll see if I can dig it out of the thread. But I don't know of a faster way than reading and clicking page by page.

But when I can I'll let you all know what I find, unless someone else has more time before me.

 

I just reach back and open it.
like once or twice in the 17 years I've owned it. I hate shit from the back flying in the front, but that's just me. I see it as an emergency escape hatch. Leads right to the enclosed bed that's locked from the outside.

 

It shows he was on here tuesday. And if its that L backing plate then that should not be to hard to do.

 

How big is your sphincter?

Or eBay has some

 

That sounds right for the part. And that's good! Last I saw he hadn't been on for months. Hopefully he gets back to you!

Yeah, hashtag doublecabprobs I suppose. I can't reach it from the drivers seat, and when I think to open it I'm rarely stopped and outside of the truck.

 

You guys trying for some alternate form of trunk monkey with this mod?

 

Either you guys are making as much sense as spicy or i need more coffee



Do you want one. Im sure some people will want this just so they can throw their beer cans into the bed

 

Beer? Or Dr Pepper? Lol

@kashtyaatsi were you wanting one?

 

Oh i know what i said!

 

I want one, wait, my whole back window rolls down. HaHa suckers.

 

Will my 700 pound coils on my icons be overkill if I switch to an aluminum front bumper?

 

Yes, the truck will explode

 

*implode*

 

It is worse than I thought...

 

I didn't say anything about 18' or FireStik in my post? Unless you're talking about the post on the subject I made five months ago. I have done other reading, and am well aware of the whole "18' myth" since about half the stuff you find if you search mentions it/argues both sides. It's kind of a moot point, since unless you make your own or pick up a radio shop 'custom' cable, odds are you're going to end up with 18' anyway. That, 9 and 12 are the most common lengths sold at non-radio specific places. I also noted in that earlier post that you should take everything on the Firestik site with a grain of salt, but that I mostly recommend it as a starting point since they've got so much information (good or bad) in one place. If you have a suggestion for another site or even two or three that covers even half the topics there with more accurate info I'd love to know about it.

My truck came with a service/maintenance schedule, and there's a pdf of it posted somewhere if you didn't get one. I just go down the list and do what I can (thefatkid pretty much listed it all already), then take it to the dealer for 'inspection'. Usually runs me $25-50 up here. 'Hardest' or 'most complicated' thing is the spark plugs, followed by the diffs/tcase. Which is to say not really hard at all. There's detailed write-ups on both I saved copies of and follow when I do it. Big chunk of dealer cost is probably consumables, so if you do it yourself or want a particular oil/gear oil that can drive the cost up. I get everything but those at the dealer anyway. I mostly take it in to have a professional look at it since they're going to spot anything wrong that I might not. One thing to be aware of is just because it's on the schedule doesn't mean they necessarily do it, so asking what's included is a good idea. I ran into that a little while back with my 60k, where checking the transmission fluid is on the checklist but apparently nobody does it/it's not necessary (on an auto).

Maybe you're too young?
