HIROD's 3rd gen DUST build

installed one of my bussman rtmr's. Was able to wrap up my switched camera project after that. i also added a rock light under my license plate frame next to the camera and it's wired in parallel on the same circuit so when the camera goes on, the light goes on. waiting till it gets dark to see how it turns out.

 

happy. it works! raining right now so no pics. maybe take some when i go work tomorrow.

 

Hey man were you able to get a pic of the dash cam?

 

not this morning. i didn't get to work early enough. maybe tonight.

 

i think it's pretty cool.

 

didn't realize i didn't wire the vitmy-05 for video in motion (i think that's what it's called). i always just played with it in the driveway which is a sight incline so I've always had the parking brake on. one of these days I'll have to double check i have the 5 button line hooked up and hook up the extra 3 wires (ground, constant, and acc).

 

found this. looks interesting.

added this today (red start button). and installed the ome carrier bearing spacer. seems to have taken out a bunch of vibes but could just be my imagination

 

I had some takeoff vibes that the ome spacer got mostly rid of. It's the vibes at cruising speed you don't want though.

 

should i be looking at some tapered blocks for the back? any suggestions? not really looking to add too much more height.

 

Not if you don't have any bad vibes. Adding different angles in could actually bring on some new vibrations. But, there's only one way to find out.

 

I'll let you try it out next time I'm over there.

 

Oh, I'm good man. I don't really have any driveline vibes.

 

how'd you get the video to the head unit?

#77.

 

this fell off my truck this morningand this grew back in its placeIt's quite a bit louder. at least i can't hear/feel those d riveline vibes anymore.

 

and the mbrp exhaust jumped off my truck and my factory exhaust jumped back on. the mbrp will probably go up for sale.

installed the ecgs bushing. I'm crossing my fingers that i did it right. filled up my front diff with redline gear oil. old diff fluid looked pretty dark and the magnetic had a bunch of stuff on it. was not expecting it to be that dirty before 5k miles.

 

ecgs bushing seems to be working. its really nice to not have those vibes anymore.

Got this done Monday (rav4 mirror)

bought both drivers side and passengers side but decided to stick to the standard passengers mirror. the blind spot mirror just didn't seem to catch the blind spot. drivers side is perfect though.

getting close to 5k miles so i decided to change oil. swapped out the housing to the aluminum one. direct swap. and added a Fumoto valve.

 

What's wrong with the mbrp?

 

Loud.?.
