FWP Fab Locked Longbed Project & Rubbishery

What helps with keeping my stuff from walking away?

A CAMPER SHELL!!!

HAHAHAHAHAH

But seriously.... hit up @Shmellmopwho for some cables that are beefy to help keep stuff form walking away.

I use one on my rotopax on top of the truck.

And then that way.... multiple locks with just one key instead of all kinds of different keys.

 

well it would just be for my hi-lift and ax/shovel for now. And it would just be a deterrent, something people without tools cant just walk away with.

The keys would stay in the truck along with my ammo box keys.

 

That's the benefit of a garage, I have a convenient place to put all the shit I don't want to carry on my truck at all times. Plus those tools will take a beating in the sun all the time.

 

well i have a garage, but i would also like to keep tools on me at all times, because you never know! haha. And the shovel has a lifetime warranty, so that is covered, and the ax should be good as its fiberglass. I think that husky brand is also lifetime warranty.

Just doesnt cover theft, which is what the cable locks will deter... But the locks will probably rust and fail before the tools will.

 

Have you ever had a need for a shovel and not had one? When you weren't wheeling

 

Actually yes... a honda civic tried to cut across the dirt between the highway and the service road, which was a terrible idea because it was raining and it was in a construction zone so he was sitting on his frame...

now the ax is a different story.

 

I keep my axe with me, it fits behind the rear passenger seat. Never know when you'll have to chop up a dead hooker.

 

Also weapons of opportunity...

 

Sold the bed rack and picked up some bed bars!
before

after

 

Also picked up some headlights for a retrofit! Going to be a while before the retrofit is complete but it is going to be epic! Or at least i hope it will!

 

Looking good man!!! ​

 

Thanks man! I am trying to get a switchpro setup!

 

Nice!! Those are super legit!!!

 

@ETXTacoma Just ordered my switchpros with red back lighting! Step yo game up! haha

 

I am starting a group buy tomorrow for these

I guess you sold enough bed brackets?

 

I just sent you a PM regarding the group buy.

 

oh I was kidding buddy.. Just wanted to joke around

 

I does seem that every time i buy something new a damn group buy pops up for it shortly after! haha

 

Can't stand you... I had one on order and then it got all messed up and I lost out on the deal.

I was really looking forward to redoing my wiring and then I bought new Skids....

Hopefully some day soon before I have the ARB lockers this will get purchased.

 

Haha. Yeah i bet that was the deal the sales lady from switchpros was talking to me about. She said that they do not offer discounts and all groupbuys on TW are not approved by them. One got through without them knowing but the other was canceled and the seller was banned.

How are you liking those EZ View mirrors from trail toys?
