Colorado B.S. Thread

Yeah I was thinking this as well.

 

I think i'm just going to fully weld the bolt to the mount this time. Maybe draw a middle finger with the welder too. Fuck thieves.

 

That sucks! Ever since I put the ditch lights and light bar on my truck I've been a lot more paranoid about leaving it parked in public places, especially parking garages and seeing this is certainly not helping

 

A nice little tack weld well stop that.

Edit... Everybody has my idea lol

 

I wonder if Eric's old bed rack that I bought from him would fit your truck?? Or if it's close?

I'd be more than happy to let you use it.

 

Hey Brian need help with the bed rack. I'm off all weekend. I could bring some tools and help you fab something up real quick. I have plenty of steel cutting tools. If you go square tube we could get it done in a day.

Oh cool Noah!!!! Good looking out.

 

My 2cents...
fab a rack that goes over your softtopper.

 

Dylan I'll watch Craig's to see if anyone post any light bars for sale.

 

Thanks, it is actually narrower then the 1st gen bed. It might work but I have a cheap solution for now. Do you not have plans to use it anymore?

I'm going to booty fab some straight bars at bed rail height to get me through Moab. After this trip I'll make me decision on what I want to build. I'm not sure I want square/round tube, what height, if I want my topper, all the other little details.

 

Much appreciated.

 

took advantage of the break in the rain to take apart my dash and grease the speedometer housing/cable. twice.

if it starts making noise again below 50 degrees I'm gonna go postal

 

Yeah I thought so, but didnt know if you might be able to easily make it fit. Just thought I would throw it out there.

No plans to use it anymore!

 

lol, I know what you mean. If it does it again, lightly grease (lithium) the gears behind the dash cluster and spray a really light lubricant ( I used electrical contact cleaner) on the speedo flywheel thingy. The plastic gears is was what was actually making the noise on mine.

 

yeah I actually did that, didn't realize how loud the speedometer was until afterwards when it was quiet. All is well for now, hopefully no more noise for a long while

 

If any of you need anything from radio shack, nows the time to do it. I guess they are going through some kind of bankruptcy and long story short they're having super sales on some of their items. I got a second dash cam for half off $40 vs $80 and we scored a nice emergency radio (solar, phone charger, radio, weather alerts, you name it) was $60 and we got it for $9.

 

Is it all of the rat shacks?

 

Sean. Just curious. Did that noise ever come back? Hopefully it's gone for good.

 

Yeah they have been doing that stuff for a while now.
