Manfred's #thicc boi aka 'White Rhino'

Yup haha I had your page saved on my phone for about 2 months going back and forth between cams. Amazon Prime day had me pulling the trigger lol

I haven't yet, is that by just plugging it in and hitting a few buttons?

The first day I had it, caught a dude pulling a wheely on a motorcycle beside me for about 700m haha

 

Use this link. You pretty much plug the camera into your computer, download the file from their website and follow some fairly simple instructions.

Man I'm glad I have you haha

 

Night trail run with @RandySavage more to folloe. Including videos

 

@RandySavage

 

Nice build!

 

hah thanks man, was creeping yours out too, you reminded me i gotta change my gear oil out

 

Yeah i need to change mine in my t-case and both diffs.. 85w-140 Lucas is great stuff if you plan on doing the diffs. Everything else, id stick with the recommended weight. ECGS recommends the 85-140 lucas, and it has served me well thus far.

 

so thats the conventional stuff right? my dealer was warning my like "don't go synthetic yadda yadda yadda" and all the 75W90 is synthetic

 

Yes, the Lucas is conventional Dino oil. It is recommended to change it every 10-15K miles. I've read that the synthetics heat up too much in the diffs and dont have enough viscosity to offer good protection after they get hot. The Lucas is super sticky, and the heavier weight is good if you tow alot, have added weight, or use your truck like it should be.

 

Welp. looks like i know what to pick up when i get paid haha

 

Normally about $80+ brand new I picked them up from a local junk yard off a couple different GMCs for the price of four Med black coffees from timmies. Needed some work though

Part number: 15712438




Before and after some prep work. Grinded off the little nubbin.









Just needed a 3/4" drill, some black spray paint, blue lock-tite and fluid film to seal it all off.



An idea for bump stops brought to you @tacoma16

 

An idea I got from here.....https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fox-2-0-deavers-1-5-aal-and-gm-bump-stops.289215/

dont want any copyright issues

glad they are working out!

 

@RandySavage being retarded and driving out by himself

 

With the windows in the camper always being open, I needed a solution.

Something that be removed
Something that was inexpensive
Something that was sturdy

Everbilt - 36" x 84" cut in half to make two 18" x 84" sheets

Velcro pressed on, backing reinforced with some JB weld.



Finished product. The resulting test is this coming weekend. All in all probably cost me 45-50 bucks

 

Fixed a rubbing issue with my hangers. Lobbed the ends off of bolts. Still don't know if it was a good approach to the problem but solved it.



Camping trip testing the screened windows. Worked super well.


Replaced old stickers (finally)

 

Should've just turned the bolts so they were facing the other way! You had them backwards which is what caused the rubbing.

 

I haven't had much time for anything truck related door was a quick fix. Worst case scenario I can buy new bolts...shouldn't be too much of an issue eh?

EDIT: I doubt I had it on the wrong way. I looked under the truck and there's no way I could have slid them through the other way. I think my issue was my stock leafs had a pair of rubber bushings that filled the void. It made it so that the nut on the back didn't have as much thread to go through before tightening commenced.

 

No I wouldn’t think it’d be much of an issue! So long as it doesn’t unscrew itself lol

 

I edited my original post lol. But I followed the torque specs so I should be good to go there. No lock-tite used I'll let the rust take care of that haha
