    Yes, in theory, but I don't have a space to do it, and rather now spray something that does not need to be sprayed. Between that and time, rather take it somewhere that knows what they are doing.

    ...too much shit to list.
    I use it on the inside of my frame only. It leaves a yellow oily film on everything it touches.

    Damn, I would think the frame would be the bulk of the cost. What was wrong with the old frame?

    Some really cool shit

    Yeah, I ended up side by side with a silver Taco DCSB at the off ramp near my house. Told me he thought my truck was awesome. Told him lots of good ideas, and group drives, on TW, that he should check it out. That's it. About a 30 second conversation. Haven't seen him in here, yet.

    Its a kit that i bought. you can buy each piece individually and get only what you order or get the kit which replaces everything sans canvas. Seemed like a no brainer for me to do the kit over individual parts.

    Only problem I see is that you needed the awning like the Autana so you could hang your feet out. Because Sasquatch AF :cool:

    Appreciate anyone's experience and recommendation for a location on where to have fluid film applied in the Bay Area.
    Would prefer to take it somewhere to have it done, as opposed to having to buy all the materials, prep the truck, and get covered in oil in the process.
    Thanks!

    So what's the thoughts on Northstar batteries? I have two in taco and one in runner. Came to hate optima after Warranty issues and having several in many vehicles. I seen to have the only Northstars in my area. Idk why.

    Had a Northstar 27F in my truck for 20 months. Great battery. Heavy, though. I just put in an Optima, same size, because the Northstar won’t fit in the relocate position.
