    Alright. So update on the bed rail situation.

    For those of you who don't know I replaced them with steel and they sit a lot lower than the stock ones. I decided to do a $6.00 fix instead of trying to do something elaborate. I found a scrap piece of zinc at Home Depot and cut it into 4 3" pieces. And viola

    I also picked up some addition white vinegar (I know) in order to experiment with pieces I don't need since I'm upgrading them.

    Also........












































































    This happened

    :D I had some gift card money left and won $120 dollars on a scratch off so they ended up costing me $20 after everything. Going to update my pods with these

    Also for those of you looking to get a compressor but don't have the money or don't want to worry about carrying a big one that drains your battery I found this while at Home Depot today.

    Also. Anyone with King shocks who drive in the winter. How do they hold up? I've heard bad things about fox but good things about icons. Curious about kings as far as rusting issues

    Kings hold up the best compared to fox and icon (icon is still good though). If I took mine out and washed them they would look brand new

    He's up in the salt belt though. Do Kings have the same coating the Icons do?

    If you expose any coil over to salty roads it will rust over time. Gotta clear coat it a lot.

    I'm so glad we don't have to worry about the salted roads here in the PNW. Unless you live on the coast... The you're just fucked all year. Lol
