Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

Would 2 tanks of gas or so be cheaper than paying to have them shipped?

 

My list is pretty tame compared to some of you. Going to put in a diff breather mod, some screening to protect the rad from bugs, put on my boat rack, then get out and use the truck. This is why I bought a Pro, so I wouldn't have to do anything major before getting out and using it haha.

That being said; sliders, skids, and bumpers are on the long term list. Still debating on whether or not I want to get a RTT... but that depends on what happens with this whole COVID thing and whether or Rec Sites will be open or not.

 

Absolutely. Shipping is like $200. Even before the gas price drop I could do a tank for ~$35 on the high end.

 

Check with the folks who hang out in the Lighting subforum?
I had a pin on those lights for later, but now I'm a little dubious.

 

Would love to have a green truck again, especially one like this...but then again ppl will kno where I'm at

 

Installed them on my 2019 Pro (no raptor lights) and they work like a charm. Absolutely no issues or hyper flash to report.

Try disconnecting the raptor positive wire and see what happens. This way you can rule the aftermarket grill lighting out of the equation.

 

Nice Larry! Where ya wheelin? Too much snow where I live at the moment. Still have to wait a couple months in my neck of the woods

 

Have you tried them without the resistors installed by chance? or by "I've added the resistors" did you mean you have been trying without them and tried it with them?

 

I love how you say your done but then name 4 upgrades that are in the plans For me it’ll be new tires and a bug shield and then maybe some matching tint. Then some sliders

 

Nice! I didn’t realize they did tints on headlights and taillights. I’ll definitely look into this when I get my truck tinted. Where did you get yours done? I’m only a couple hours from the springs. And looks great by the way

 

Yes, I've tried both ways. Stew at MESO is awesome. This has him scratching his head - of course he's never seen it before. He's got an idea for a potential fix and will be sending me another harness.

someone in the Lighting Forum suggested it might be a bad OEM connector on the lower bulb from the truck harness or a bad ground.

 

TVD? I googled them and only found decals. Do they make the complete door sill protector?

 

No, just the vinyl decals.

 

I posted the link to the door sill protectors within the last page or two, just look for my posts.

 

I'm in the same boat. Just went back through this entire thread looking for ideas. Did you ever come up with anything?

 

I am changing my Rims too I want to go with a Bronze or i saw a nice Copper SCS rim on another thread So far i like Methods nv in bronze or SCS in Copper But i will stay with the 16 inch Rim and Falkan Wild peaks AT I am tired of Black Rims I have had them on my last 4 Trucks it is time for something different Not my truck but this on my Army Green would be nice.

 

I agree those look sharp. I've never been a fan of Black rims. When I ordered the truck I told my wife they'd have to go. She said no way, they look sharp. So for the 2 months of waiting I just let myself think Black rims "good". And over the past week of having the truck I've tried to talk myself into it. Just ain't happening. I am going up to a 17" rim though. More C-SL load rated tires to choose from. Even the WildPeaks in 285/70/17's. You can even get a 275/70/17 giving a little more room for tire rub.

 

Well i was thinking of going with BFG K02 in a 265 75 16 But if i got a good deal i would go to 17 But like you said i never wanted the factory rims I only do mild off road now so i was not trying to build a Rock crawling beast like my Jeep i built 2 years ago. I like the Fox set up i do not want to lift my truck I pull a small trailer now and set up camp and take local trails So i think stock is fine for me But yes i have to get new tires and rims I also put a winch on cause i tend to get stuck But the only other things i will change will be small and mostly cosmetic. Here is a pic of the Jeep and the truck.

 

I went with the 265 70 16 KO2's and have found them to do well on ice and throw snow up here in the mtns. I too did not want to get crazy with mods just for tires. So far I am good with off-road (what little I can do with all the snow still here) with traction. I too do not rock crawl anymore so I wanted a vehicle that can handle the mtns both BLM trails and off road trails for camping, hunting and exploring (fishing to). The look isn't bad, if you are going to 17's it does open up a lot of tire options - just not sure I want to do a lift and space mod. Like everything we discuss here it comes down to personal preferences. I have to admit I do like the looks of a larger aggressive tire.
