    Hanneman says they're 4.5". I'm trying to cover the freaking 35s as much as I can, 6" seemed too extreme though...

    This is 6"

    What are the glassworx ones you have and are they new? I may be interested, especially if they're already boxed for shipping

    they are boxed brand new but the box has been outside so it's basically worthless sadly. I guess you're a bit far to do a hand off as well..

    And they are the Advanced Fiber glass 4.5'' fronts and the bedsides are the 4" ones.

    Yeah 6'' is pretty extreme haha

    Good luck though, I found the 4.5'' didn't really cover the 35s haha but better than nothing.

    It's 8hrs, close enough for me to make the drive in a weekend, I didn't know you had bedsides and front fenders. What's the going rate, I'm interested

    OK, dumb (?) question. How do fiberglass bedsides worth with something like a bed rack? Are they strong enough to support the weight up there? I mean, obviously I guess you had them on Frank...

    I did not have them on frank.

    And honestly, probably not no.

    I knew a guy who had a soft topper on his. But I think a bed rack/RTT combo would destroy the fiberglass. You could probably trim around the legs though in some fashion to make it work.

    I didn't say it was impossible :p you'd have to get a bit creative.


    Plus if you're doing LT then you'll have a bed cage to mount the RTT to anyways :luvya:

    Frost is definitely more of a concern than the snow so far this year. We have had snow three times with two times being ~1" or less and the other having been like 4-6 inches. have to remember the snow is mostly dry so it brushes off pretty quick. Now leaving the truck outside youll have some good frost and ice on it in the morning.

    As silly as they are those windshield covers work great for the mornings. We have cheapish ones from costco and they will keep the front windshield and mirrors (ours came with mirror pouches) from being covered in the frost/ice.

    The wife is in the same boat as you with needing to be available quickly and has no problem parking her car outside and being able to go right away (well in the time it takes to take the cover thingy off)

    They asked me to renew PRO last year for 2 years to keep my rate. I figure what the hell, I'm no pro but I like the features.

    Well made some progress on my first attempt on a mounting bracket for the SP9100 and buss bars.

    Little vice bender thing worked good. Found some limitations of it, mainly how big the thing is I'm bending and how it hits the vice, but worked good overall.

    Also put my first nutsert in. Had to move my washer bottle to get it to seat fully but worked good. M8 was almost perfect size just had to make it a touch bigger with the drill

    But now I'm having second thoughts on placing it there.


    It would just be much nicer if it was on the driver side. Shorter wire runs and be more direct.

    I thought I wouldn't be able to fit it there but I think I could make a bracket that would fit in this kind of configuration.

    Just have to move the canister closer to the Master cylinder.

    It would be nicer there but running wires would be a bit more of a pain since its so busy in general on that side.

    @Speedytech7 I bet it's cause it's a PM and TW treats the images there different.

    So posted here, well minus the two with the box since my address is on it in big sharpie letters

    Thanks! Fun to make shit.

    It's big but not huge. Holds just under a gallon. So not as big as the stock tank.

    And yeah they are pretty cool.
