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

Sorry for the late reply.
I've been thinking about putting mine back on. The on road ride is not worth the minimal gain off road.
The suspension is tuned with the swaybar on and removing it effectively reduces some of the spring rate during single side compressions. High speed the truck feels less stable around freeway overpasses that have long sweeps. Slow speeds offroad i would like to think it helps but i couldn't tell if i didn't know i removed it. My opinion is that unless your going with stiffer springs and/or long travel while planning on doing tons of offroad driving leave it on.
More food for thought, if you cause a wreck on the freeway and insurance finds out the truck had the swaybar removed are they going to ignore that?

 

You shouldn’t be removing the sway bar with stock suspension. That’s silly.

 

I would be the only person coming to Bridgeport if I did... I changed the event yesterday in the FB group and people threw a fit because now people couldn't go and stuff... well you know what... just because their isn't a damn FB event doesn't mean you can't drive your ass to Barnwell and go wheel your rig, so I said fuck it and kept an event for Barnwell for ETTO for July 28th and then created another one for August 4th... so they can have fucking choices. Picky ass people.

None of those people would be dedicated enough to drive to Bridgeport anyways... I can barely get them to come to Monthly Gatherings, even with the enticement of raffles...

I read that last night. I honestly don't know man...

I tried one of those and with the case that I have on my phone it really didn't work well?

 

In that case you stick the metal plate to the outside of the case

 

Yeah, and there’s a mirror of his videos posted in a Colorado group. I’m contemplating posting them to TTR as well.

I’d like to hear his side of the story before jumping on the banning wagon, but idk.

 

That mount is spring loaded, and the “arms” shrink in as the phone’s weight presses on the bottom “feet”. It seems pretty secure so far. Drop it in, it wraps the phone, and starts charging.

And the wires are hidden in the AC controls.



There is no discoloration on the AC panel, that’s just a weird light reflection.

 

My cruiser isn't ready and id love to take it. Only thing is its my neices birthday and I won't miss that

 

Let’s hope it functions as good as it looks

 

Case isn't flat on the back, so that doesn't work.

I had one of these for my old phone, but with my current phone and case it doesn't fit... I may get another one that will fit and try and modify it to work with the RAM ball mount...

Yea, I would like to hear his side as Aaron is a good dude.

Nice! That is a clean install man! Did you get that Tech Deck or no?

Also, I ended up breaking that flip down cover for the plug off... got tired of it being flipped down... I really wish there was an easy way I could remove both of them... but nope.

Nothing wrong with that, can't knock you for that at all...

I know you just don't want to hang out with me anymore in case I might now like how you tread.

 

I did buy a tech deck, but didn’t use it. It's for sale for what I paid; haven’t made a listing for it yet.

 

Ahhhh, I don't know anyone that needs one.

 

Has anyone in here done the CSF radiator swap? My coolants temps were hitting 200-204 on the way here going ~70-75 in 109 degrees or so. I'm gonna see how they look wheeling Saturday, but they never got that high in VA so I might have to do that sooner than later.

 

Yeah I have a life proof and it works great stuck to the back of it.

 

I’ll buy it.

 

Anyone know of any drive shaft shops that could add a slip yoke to my factory drive shaft????

 

This is a special kind of stupid...

 

@ItalynStylion who did you have do your DS?

 

To a two piece?

 

Have you tried Driveshaft King?

 

I went to Drive Shaft King in Dallas. The guy's name I worked with was Steve. At my request, he added a double cardan joint behind my carrier bearing. Totally solved my issues. I've got a thread in the 2nd gen section about it.
