DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Oil changed, fumoto installed, checked lugnuts, trimmed fenders. Rdy to roll!

 

They're a fantastic bit of protection.

 

I needed them, my lcas are scratched to hell after hot springs. I think I will paint the letters red when I touch up everything after jambo.

For anyone meeting at Buccees, dont forget 35 is showing shut down this weekend north of 820 to about heritage trace. I was stuck in that last weekend and took me over an hr to get off the highway and up to TMS.

 

I'm pumped and ready to test my lift! I also want to hook up to someones truck and get my winch line spooled tighter before we hit the trails incase its needed. It's loosely spooled for now.

 

I'll be meeting you guys at the park at 9, bringing the only guy from that work that uses his Jeep to it's potential

 

Damn that looks like a good group. I'm up in OKC to support my wife's marathon. Y'all have fun!

 

I have a jeep buddy possibly comin too, from what i hear hes more of a mall crawler but hes got 37s so it should be good. He works at 4wp dallas so buddy on up with him if you shop there.

 

Had a good time in BP today. We didn't get rained on until we were on our way home between Bowie and Wichita. Almost nobody else out there today. Hope you guys have fun!

 

Whenever I need to get my line re-spooled I just go out and find something big to hook the winch to and barely set the e-brake. You can spool your line that way if you don't have help. Set the e-brake so that the tires can still roll, but it will but enough tension on the line to get it spooled right.

 

Well..... this happened today....

Rearview mirror is useless now. But you cannot see into the backseat of the truck or the shell unless your face is touching the glass.

Had the fronts redone with 25% as well. Can't touch the windows until Jambo.

Also got to finally meet @trekker and take a ride in his Supercharged Taco and talk trucks and engine swaps for a little bit. Going to be a fun truck to be on the trails at Jambo.

 

I feel your pain, I've got double 5% on the back on top of the factory tinted glass

 

Hell, the only thing I can see behind me now is if someone has headlights on. Can't make out anything else on the vehicle.

Glad I did not do the back glass of the truck with 5% as well....

 

I don't see shit, drive with the high beams on behind me and I can't tell. That's the only reason of got the lights on my bed to help me see at night

 

Sounds like a great way to spool the line tight enough. I had thought about hooking up to something solid but hadnt thought about using the ebrake to create the tension. Thanks!

 

Yup, pretty sure they are going to let us get into the park before then to unload trucks and kinda setup camps real quick.


Side Note: Got the rear view mirror to pop off. So only thing up there now is the window mount and the middle rod portion. I have so much more front wind shield view now!

 

I'll be there manning the gate Thursday morning, I can be bribed to let you in early just don't tell @tgormtx

 

Beer?

 

I'm now a maybe
