    Get any farther with relocating your rearview camera? I know I keep pestering you, I apologize :anonymous:

    No, sorry man. :eek: And it probably wont be for a while either....I'm not even running the tire gate right now, and that backup camera is the last thing on my mind.

    I can easily tell you how to do it since I already had it mocked up. Hardest part for me was going to be to make a nice enclosure/mounting bracket for it so it wouldn't move or look too out of place.

    Dude, same here! I caught the boss walking out the door and forced the point. He basically couldn't say no! Now on to real prep and planning....3 day weekend coming up! (4 day for me! :D) Any big plans? take some leafs out?? :poking:

    Yeah man! I've always wanted to road trip it up there. It's a beautiful place. And thanks to this impromptu trip, it's happening in a month!

    Thanks man! We will for sure!

    I've been hearing that a lot lately about them for some reason. I don't know if its just a recent thing or something that has been going on for a while, but I can't speak about it really cause the 2 things I got from allpro were purchased through a 3rd party during a group buy so I haven't had to deal with them yet..

    Let me know if you need a spare set of hands anytime this weekend. Aside from taking the boat out and going fishing, I don't really have much going on this weekend aside from household chores, messing with the truck, and drinking! :)

    Before I start anything on the truck for this trip I have to sit down and try to figure out what I actaully need to do to her and what I am actually going to need to bring. Cause right now I am seriously clueless......this will be my first road trip of this type of length.... :goingcrazy:

    LOL! First one to break somthing loses!! :p

    I might need you to weld up something quick to hold my spare in the bed for the time being. I already have some quick plans for something to mount it to the bed rails. Should be very fast and very easy since I'll have everything cut out and ready...

    I got a faulty spindle on it that couldn't hold the weight. Supposedly I was one of a very very few that have gotten a bad one. Not sure about how chromoly is made but mine had almost air pockets in it and was not structurally sound. Just haven't gotten around to changing it out...Definitely not Tyler's fault at all, but I know he has since gone with a different spindle that is 3xs the size and greasable. :drool:
