San Diego BS Thread.

It would almost be a great investment buying and reselling 1st gens after they have been gone through and sell them however that would require me being able to find a bunch of them for cheap and I dont want fully beat ones, may be a tough thing to do!
What so they want for that one? PM me if you dont want to give away your deal! Dont want anyone else to swoop in and get it! I know there are tons of people that are looking for good condition 1st gens.

I can help you out, are you planning on running a main and an Aux separated by an isolator? Thats how I have done them in the past to make sure you never kill your starting battery when camping etc..
Some guys go as far as buying a dual 6v battery setup for much longer reserve capacity but those 6V batteries for decent ones are $200+ each generally, but get you far more than double the time a 12v single will get you. But thats if you have space to add a 3rd battery, which most dont usually.

 

Whats the problem with it, feel loose or maybe break off some teeth inside the rack shaft? Its always about eliminating the weak links, before you know it you start considering building a new tubular frame, haha.

What are you going to do for an upgrade?

 

Just blew the seals. Don't think any of the teeth or anything got damaged. I'm gonna buy another one and rebuild this one so I have spares. Lol

 

I think I might just have to get this for the sake of easiness:

Flares for all you LT trucks out there..

 

No, but I need you to do some dash lights for me....

 

OH, it's 1st gen...

 

Would it be bad to run the winch neg and ground to the frame? I want to do dual batteries in the bed but I do not want to run 2 wires from the wing all the way back AND a cable for a blue sea fuse block under the hood.

 

LEt me know when old man. Can do them this weekend if you would like.

 

I'm no expert, but looks like they typically ground it all to frame. Looks like you need to run 2 pos for each battery up

Edit: unless a blue sea has some really cool smarts to send one wire up and manage the 2 in the bed

 

PM me your ph# Chris (if it's changed)

And I know it's a crappy,jittery, side shot, not crazy about the color either.. But I'm back baby, I'm back.....

 

I have heard it's bad to ground the winch

I was thinking this
But with this isolator
