    Just a vehicle to take trash to the dump
    One or two things modded... Check out the build thread
    So if you fill the tires with helium it should decrease the curb weight of the truck, which means better mileage... right???










































    Right?

    For my peeps with the trail toys fuel tank skid, something to be aware of. My leafs were. Coming in contact with the strap, wearing it away. I cut I off and used an extra can strap so it shouldn’t hit anymore.

    I actually have mine mounted the opposite way with the strap underneath the truck on the passenger side of the gas tank but thanks for the heads up, I will check mine out today.

    Absolutely, or you can trade the mpg for cargo capacity,,, in theory.
    Imagine the possibilities if you were running 35" tires on 15" wheels :goingcrazy:

    I wanted to add a dust light so when in dusty conditions, those behind me could see me. Amazon warehouse ftw, got it for half off. Spot white to punch through the dust and it is BRIGHT. Oh my god it’s so bright. It’s my first experience with KC and I’m impressed

    No. There were two separate occasions where the person behind me said they could barely see it and only sometimes through the dust. I wanted something more powerful.

    May as well, it’s a fun feature. For me this light replaced the strobe. No more strobe for Betty.

    Removing my steering rack never gets any easier.

    Very little room to work. Without tie rods on it would be easier
