Ugh not looking forward to that

 

Doesnt really mind me much, The day i STRAP into my truck before driving it, the day I become a very happy man.

 

My truck sounds like its falling apart if I take my headsets off, haha

 

Mine click soooo loud over little chattery bumps

 

Well if anyone wants to trade their annoying bypasses I will bite the bullet and give up my perfectly quiet smoothies

In fact, Cory let me save you the aggravation before you even do your rear LT, lets just trade shocks now

 

Ill be hearing that sweet sound soon, oh so soon...

 

See my edit, I'll save you

 

Haha, u don't want em....they r brand new kings man, the bro hoes will all want rides! Such a pain lol

 

I wish mine were as quiet as yours

 

Me too Tyler!! lol
my truck makes horrible noises when the helmets and parker pumpers are turned off. Sounds like its about to fall apart
But at higher speeds all noises disappear

 

I got tired of taking people for rides and having them ask what's wrong with the truck. It is pretty obnoxious for a DD. The cage really carries the sound...I tried soundproofing the interior. No dice. So I had some old 1.5" bushings laying around and stuck those in there instead of the uniballs. It's nearly silent now unless the windows are down and you are going slow. Sure, it's hillbilly engineering, but it works. They've been on there for 20,000 miles or so, at least half of that in the dirt without issue.

Exactly, just go faster!

 

Alright, since we're (kind of) in the topic of cages, I have a question.

Are 5-point harnesses safe for daily driving?
My concern would be whiplash from having your body strapped to the truck and not your head.
Opinions?

 

I dd mine. I used to be a tow truck driver and saw hundreds of bad crash scenes. There would be a many more people alive today if a cars had cages and 5 points...if airbags and factory seat belts worked as good as advertised every race organization on earth would require them...

 

Ok, second question.
Are the ladies not going to want to ride in my truck because of the placement of the harness straps? Any complaints of that nature?
