Subway4X3 Shameless Copycat Build

I don't know, the Lehigh Valley mall is a rough one ,it took me 3 tries to get it done!

 

Bender is here, hopefully I'll have a prototype in December.

 

Any update on the diy shell rack?

 

Hey... where are we with this? Lol

 

Start with post #1030

 

did that. Did you ever finish the cross bars with the 80/20 or did you go with something else. I saw one where it looks like you have them up there. But it looked like a prinsu side plate as well so didn’t know if you scrapped the idea of doing it yourself.

mainly what I’m wanting to see is how you mounted it to the tracks. I ordered my tracks from proline today and am looking at ordering 5 pieces of the 80/20 series 15 in 1x3 and starting from there.

 

I bought the custom made side plates from @BeachBoy

for the SmittyBilt mounting ,Look somewhere at or around post #382

Just got it, but I think it will be my new favorite impact: the Dewalt 1/2” mid-torque.

The high torque 1/2” is a beast, but weighs a ton. Too much heavy lifting for regular wrenching. Now I’ll just bust it out that bitch if I have a rusted on bolt.

My next favorite is the 3/8” impact. Love it for basic mechanic work around all the vehicles.

The 1/4” I reserve for driving in wood screws.

 

It’s a different shade of yellow... take it back

 

Lol. Once I get it all greasy, it’ll match.

 

I just got a dewalt 30 gallon compressor and a dewalt generator so hopefully your obsession is for good reason

 

I was hoping you could help me out. I have codes 31, 32, 33, 35, 41, and 48 showing up (yay). Would you be able to look up 35, 41 and 48 for me when you get a chance? I'd appreciate it greatly.

edit: Reason I asked is my link to the FSM is down but I used an internet archive and brought it back up. Found the codes. For anyone curious, this is them. Seeing as code 48 points to the diff lock, which I don't have, I believe it's my ABS kill switch. It tricks the truck into thinking a non existent diff is locked. Going to go check all connections.

 

Well to close this out, undid the abs kill switch and that left 33, RR abs sensor. Broke out the multimeter and tested my harness for continuity. Sure enough, a break in the line. I had originally extended it with CAT5 cable to allow for extra flex but I guess over time it broke. Redid it all with proper 18 gauge wire and faults are cleared.

 

Hey @Subway4X4
Not sure what are your plan about replacing your Plano cases, so... Seems there's a deal on smaller Planos on Amazon

$90 Plano All Weather 36” Tactical Gun Case, Black with Pluck-to-Fit Foam, Watertight & Dust-Proof Shield Protection, Airline Approved

I got mine around 45$ A piece. The prices drop really low twice a year I believe. Think mine are 42”.


If you check out camelcamelcamel.com you can see price history monthly, maybe weekly and set alerts and stuff.

 

Hi Seb!

Did you get that Softopper mounted up yet?
I was so wiped out on Sunday I felt like I could have slept till Tuesday.
I got up though, swapped out those tires/wheels then ran that container a couple hours south of me.

 

That's a pretty good price. I missed that sale price when I was getting mine.

 

Yeah, that was a heck of a drive, fo' shoo. Lol

No I didn't put it up yet. Still have to order the roof rack so I can redesign my storage, then I'm going to install the topper

 

Showing off my new COVID haircut.

Pure serendipity getting the U.S. flag in the pic.
