Aren't those gear wrenches in pic, or do I need to get my eyes checked again?

 

I think you need to get your brain checked again. I read it to mean his non-reversible GearWrenches are in storage so he is using reversible GearWrenches instead and is liking them.

 

X2.

Without the switch is is possible to ratchet yourself into a place where you can't get the wrench out.

 

I do like painting myself into a corner, kind of like God's gift to me...

 

What John said. I have two sets of gearwrenches. I like the set I pictured more. Advance auto/ car quest has them on sale for 40-50% off from time to time.

 

Anybody have a shop paint a camper shell? Looking to pick one up, my truck is indigo ink, would probably be hard for me to do myself with this color and considering having a shop color match vs. just painting it black myself

 

Indigo pink.. Is that a factory shade?

 

Anyone here have their Wilderness EMS Cert. or go to Colorado Mountain College?

Looking at getting my WEMS and possibly going after that field as opposed to/in addition to machining

 

What brand?
What ratio?
Anything up front?

 

Nitro
5.29
ARB front and rear

 

Was nitro the better brand? Thought there was another that also mad gears?

As for the rest

All this talk makes me wanna defeat and lock the rear....

 

5.29s huh? You planning on putting 40s on that thing?

 

I am looking at the NItros as those seem to be getting good reviews. Also, can get the REM on them from the vendor.

I want the ARB in the rear just because I can only use the factory shit in low. I may or may not be installing a TacoBox in the coming months and if it were to be engaged, I would have to be in Lo-Lo in order to have a rear locker and that is no bueno. If I have the ARB then I could have more options for gears and lockers.

Do it!

 

I have more OD gears than you do.

 

That and I dont want to do 4.88s and then wish I had done the 5.29s later. Buy once, cry once. As far as how low they are, I think it will be fine as heavy as I am. My motor would probably thank me.

 

This might sound stupid but what is this just a class on first aide when in the wilderness?

 

Nice!!
I’m thinking 4.30 since idk if I wanna stay with the skinny 33” or step up to the 34”

Lsd front and E-locker rear is my current plan.

 

Well my e-locker wouldnt work on yours or Id consider an extremely charitable price for you.

Im not ruling out 34s or 35s in the more distant future.

 

Vinyl wrap

 

You can't defeat the ECU on 3rd gens to let you use the locker in low? Do I need to read the wiring diagram/service manual for them and sell this switch/wiring upgrade?

First Aid in the wilderness is putting a bandage on. EMS in the wilderness will save you.
