What Have You Done To Your 4th Gen Today?

I took my new Toy on a loooooong 650 mile drive. Got 20.1 mpg avg. @80mph, 22.1 @ 75mph, 23.4 @ 70mph.
I really love that powerplant. Ran smooth as silk and even when cruising at 65 it jumps real nicely when pedal is put to metal.

 

capt.bob, I really like your wheels on the OR Oxide. Definite compliment to the truck...

 

thank you for posting this. I ordered the brackets for a heretic and it wasn’t close to fitting the light fox. These are a great option.

 

How much lift did you get ?

Hows the truck reacting on sharp driveways? Any thumping or clunking ?

 

Nice kit brotha !

Did you install the diff drop kit ?

 

Around 2.5”
Drives great. No more bottoming out at all. No clunking. Couldn’t be happier with the ride quality. Very plush and composed.
No diff drop.

 

Nice !

Do you notice any clunking or thumping of the cv axles when entering steep driveway? Next time you do enter a driveway pay attention. And let me know

 

same boat here (Black Friday) and late seeing this but I just received my shipment yesterday, raw skidplate(in stock) and cross member (waited on powder) It was shipped Dec 10, sat with courier for a few days before leaving west coast to Toronto. Takes like a week across country and with holidays and such. It came very well packed and secure, fully foam wrapped. Will be installing this AM when I stop feeling lazy. From the sounds of it they are small and dependent upon when orders reached them, and maybe a bunch from the sale, could take some time to replenish. Overall quality is nice, can update if any issues on install but they've been around for a while just prob more CND presence

 

yea i dont mind waiting for a small company. just tell me if your gonna need a couple weeks to make it.

 

Installed the Rough Country hood struts today.

 

Info on the mirror tap please..... Thanks

 

Looks good. I got hood struts too---- similar to yours, but haven't had a chance to install yet.

 

I bought this one, but obviously you need to get the one with the appropriate connector for whatever you are powering (mine was for a Uniden R3):

$30 MirrorTap, MT-1015, 15" Radar Detector Power Cord with 2AMP Inline Fuse, RJ11 Plug

When you are tapping, 12V switched power is the blue lead, and ground is the brown lead. It is very easy to do, but I do have some recommendations: 1) use needle nose pliers to insert the leads (they are tight) 2) bend the metal leads VERY slightly before inserting and 3) use a small zip tie to secure each of your leads to their mates before you button everything back up (2 and 3 are just to help ensure they stay in place long-term).

Dongar also makes great products, if you only have one device to power and would prefer something even simpler - theirs are plug-and-play. I used their 5-pin adapter in the empty OEM dashcam plug to power my aftermarket dashcam.

 

do you find the Victory engine cover affects engine temps at all?

 

No, engine temp is normal, no change.

 

Canadian mud flaps.. removed the ARK flaps that I had on the truck. Didn’t like how they looked

 

Just to verify. They aren't flexible like the OEM skinny ones?

 

Awesome thanks!!

I have been looking at a few of these to see whats the best one for installation process.

 

honestly pretty much anything will work as long as you get the power where it needs to go, but any questions let me know!
