    Well the mechanic was trying to blame tire noise to be my rear pinion noise. They ran it in the air and they heard the tires. Didn't go well with Corp so they sent the field engineer out.

    Bad trouble shooting the dealers have base techs working on basic services. Inform them the Forman needs too look at you're a
    truck and it'll be in better hands.

    Let there be light! @Fitzwilly

    Bad picture... but finished the wiring right as the thunder storm rolled in....

    20180906_170739.jpg

    Amber outsides and white center. Wired up separately so I can run amber's only, white only or both. Happy that the Amber's are pretty close to my amber fogs.



    ... Pre-wired for an amber dust light that's in the mail from Caliraised too.

    Well, I’ve been stashing some cash for a while for a rainy day and I suppose the day has come. Not sure how I’m going to explain to the whining sound coming from the truck.

    Maybe we can do the install at Levi’s?

    Doing a 12 hour drive to Raleigh tomorrow for a buddies wedding. Sure plane would be way faster, but I hate airlines and don't give them my money unless I have to (I.E. flying over an ocean, or more than a 12-16 hour drive). Got the new ECU flash a few days ago and it feels like a new truck. Excited to test it out on the highway, especially since it's aligned now too :thumbsup:

    I am a little worried about back comfort with this trip though. It's a long drive and I haven't gone more than 3 hours or so in the taco yet, and I find my back gets a little stiff. Might have to bring some ibuprofen for the ride.:fingerscrossed:

    Walk around and stretch on your gas/bathroom breaks! Found that helps when I go to SC

    I was thinking about that today, stretch before I get in this morning and then whenever we stop for gas. The wife used to drive this herself solo, so she's perfectly happy to take the wheel for a few hours and let me take a little break!
