Nova Scotia BS Thread

also, any one know where to get the bussman RTMR Fuse block in Canada? ( hopefully locally ) and anyone know if we can get automotive style connectors in HRM? I like to keep things reversible, if ever possible.

so many questions!

 

I've ordered mine today, then they will no doubt sit in my bucket of "Truck stuff" that has yet to happen...

 

Anyone coming out tonight?

 

My fault I'm sorry Duncan

 

I have some blue wave or something. I got it on Amazon.com. it's not installed yet though.

 

No problem at all my friend!

 

Blue Sea? Is it a fuse block only, or does it take relays?

 

I can't remember the name
It's a full relay block!

 

TDOTperformance is my go to for this side of the border. Price and shipping is decent. But it is a fullfillment whatever they call it so nothing is "in stock" Basically they order it from other sources. I ordered EBC ceramic brake pads for the Mini through them and the price was competitive but it took 3 weeks to get them.

Dont even get me started on tdot lol.

 

After 4Wheelparts annoyed me the first day they have been great since. Best place I dealt with so far I think and seem to be the cheapest

 

Jason and his crew are good for sure....I usually save the shipping and pick up at the store since I am only an hour away


As far as TDOT....LOL.....I hear ya. It gets here ....eventually

 

My problem was some of the parts of the lift kit wernt for my truck and they didn't want to help me out.

 

Shell gas today may 2nd by the sobeys across from 2 brothers seen nice blue 2nd gen with the colour match a r e topper black rims trd sport maybe a lift ?

Nice truck

 

Picked it up today, it cost $30 for the parts from Toyota.

 

I've been digging into my list of To-Do's for the truck the past few weeks,

4x4 switch light mod


Shortened up the harness on my Stereo ( and added an additional power line for the backup Cam / front Cam / backup cam anytime



LED Light bar switch install ( LED Bar *not* installed.....yet )



Top rocker switch ( below the missing 4x4 switch ) is the "anytime backup cam on" mod, bottom rocker ( above the e-brake ) is the "DVD anytime" switch. That should come in handy if I have my kid with me on long drives



This is the voltage regulator needed for the backup cam ( Factory cam takes 6v that is usually supplied from the rearview mirror or Head Unit ). I bought the kit off ebay and soldered it up myself ( its the PCB board hanging beside the wire loom )



This next one is more for reference, its the wiring conversion chart I made after not being able to find this info on the forum ( least not definitively )



Took longer then I thought, but most of that time was spend tracing down the cam wires, and running the wires back and forth through the dash. If anyone wants to see bigger pics, or the whole album, Click here

Next up is the LED bar, and the bed lights

 

It ALWAYS takes longer than expected. ALWAYS.

This past week I was gonna toss a new gas tank in the Lexus but noooooo I ended up dropping the sub frame and transmission and sand blasting the sub frame and taring apart the tranny to see what was up.. took 6 days.

Picking up another R154 tonight though!!

 

I had a bit of "feature creep" with mine.
I'll just add the rear camera....
might as well do the always on mod...
might as well do the always on DVD mod...
might as well run the front cam wires...


anyone have any tips for installing a hitch? looks pretty straight forward.

 

Shiny. They sent me 885 coils insread of 884's. They should still be fine for the old access cab you guys think?

 

I was told not to run 885s on the 5100s(with a bumper on the truck).
