How do you know what the belts tight enough but not too tight?

Something squeals at me when the temperatures colder. Hasn’t done it for awhile.

 

Half inch play up and down

 

This^

It was way loose. After feeling the other belts. I could easily move it over an inch and that was why i was getting a squeal.

 

belts can be tight but still sqeaks at high rpm or like when you hit the ac button and they sell some spray you can use to help it not slip.
Ive never done this but ik its a thing

 

I don't think that is a good idea. Keep that shit off the belts. It's poor bandaid at best.

If they are tight, they don't squeal.

 

I am weak



BTW if you ever need a coupon for that store, use this website: http://www.hfqpdb.com/

I paid $54 after tax.

 

It’s a lot smaller than my old one, but 100x easier to put up and the quality just seems better.

Which is surprisingly for coming from Harbor Freight.

 

Anybody watching Travis Pastrana do the Evel Knievel Cesar’s Palace jump on History Channel?

They’re showing a lot of cool old Evel Knievel footage in the buildup.

 

You gunna ge my bed side next? I need to replace my passenger one lol

 

I haven’t even plug welded anything yet it’s probably going to be terrible

 

Tyler, don't try to use the woven cloth, get the fiberglass mat.

 

My sentiments on electrical!

 

It’s not that bad. I didn’t know anything about electrical when I did my power door conversion. I just sat down with all four door connectors and something like 60 connections, popped open the wiring schematic manual, and started labeling wires.

 

Well that was a pain in the ass.



The taillight area frame on this bed are both fubar. I have to teansfer those over as well on top of the bedsides.

 

Is the front bolt in section on that bed straight?

 

It’s actually curved a little. Very slightly though.

 

I would have just drilled the floor section only.

 

The wheel wells are FUBAR on the 5-lug too. And after seeing how hard it is to remove spray in bed liner, no way I would be able to get to the spot welds.

 

Just cut all the pad off with a angler grinder The scrap off the bed liner and drill out the rest

 

I’m already too vested into this. Bedsides are getting swapped.

Trust me. That Bedliner is resilient, I tried an angle grinder with a wire cup and I just upset it even more.
