    Thanks. Last April was the first time I ever went to Rausch, been there 6 or 7 times now.

    It got much better after I hosed down the radiator for about a half hour. Only gave me trouble when I got stuck in stop and go traffic in 95+ degree heat with the AC on. I'm getting a grill from Craig at some point, figure when I have it off I'll also take off the fan shroud and give the radiator a good cleaning. Hopefully that will take care of it.

    Behind the grille isn't as fun as it sounds. I used to have that but now I'm putting them on the front bumper. Protection from the grille is useless and makes them harder to clean bug guts and mud off of.

    I paid $200 for all the windows in my dc except the windshield and it is spot on. Wouldn't cheap out on something like that. Too many shitty tiny jobs out there with air bubbles and gaps and shit.

    It does make them more secure though if you have some real expensive lights and are worried about someone stealing them

    Really digging your build man. I'm new and want to start modding and the direction you went with your truck is pretty much the direction I want to go in. Where do you guys go besides Rausch and the Pine Barrens? Anything near the Yardley/Trenton area a stocker can go check out?

    Thanks, feel free to ask any questions you have as you go. I haven't found any other places to wheel. Craig (HomerTaco) might know some spots out that way, he's close to that area.

    And there's this VVVVV :laugh:

    Will do! And yes my unfortunate proximity to Trenton is the reason I no longer have my motorcycle as well. :(

    Installed a single roof rack bar at the back of the cab for carrying a kayak. Huge pain in the ass, ended up having to pull apart the interior so I could drop the headliner since the fasteners for the Yakima landing pad 7 didn't work like they claim.

    Yeah, from the old school cartoon I grew up on, they haven't been in the new movies.

    :rolleyes: A NY'er would know.

    Yeah, it didn't come with holes drilled. Since I got the hitch behind the plate he gave me a hitch mounted license plate holder that I didn't use.

    Took off the fan shroud and gave the radiator a real good cleaning. This is what was left on my driveway just from the radiator (and that's after I had already hosed it off in easily accessible areas):

    Hopefully now I can go up inclines and use my AC again when I'm doing over 60 on a warm day. And more importantly not overheat while wheeling.
