    Electrical draw help

    Thanks for the help guys. The HID headlights are the 35w type with no battery power added. Just plugged into the original headlight sockets. They have been installed for over 2.5 years. The draw after everything goes to sleep is .172 with the meter. This is after 30 minutes of all doors...

    Electrical draw help

    I have been dealing with a slow battery drain for a few months now. The history of the truck is aftermarket HID low beams, LED running board lights, and thats it. No aftermarket stereo, alarm, or any tie-ins anywhere. Battery goes dead after a month. I drive the truck every 2-3 days...

    Thule Summit roof box, what mounting kit?

    I am having trouble finding a mounting kit for a older Thule Summit roof box for my 4th Gen. Thule has responded via email "try the QM3 kit" but I didn't want to order the kit to find out it doesn't fit. Does anyone have any personal experience mounting a Thule Summit to their factory rails...

    5100's installed, what a difference

    Steering response seems fine. I just borrowed a air compressor and I am going to give my stuck eccentric another attempt. Between my snap-on half inch impact, and a air hammer, hopefully it will break loose.

    5100's installed, what a difference

    After getting a few miles on the new alignment, it actually drives really nice. Straight wheel, no pull, and the steering is light but not scary. The highway may be a different story.

    5100's installed, what a difference

    So my alignment didn't go so well. I had a frozen rear lower control arm eccentric on my passenger side rear. Really struggled to get the new suspension on that side. Well after seeing my alignment specs, what are my options now? Keep soaking with PB Blaster and see if a shop can air hammer...

    5100's installed, what a difference

    I had a productive weekend and finally got my 5100's and FJ coil swap done. I am running at the 1.75" setting. Right now she has a .5" larger gap in the rear. Hopefully the front will settle a bit. Also tried Plastidip for the first time. Two coats of black and two Anthracite with a light...

    Wheel spacer question after lift?

    Absolutely love the Duratracs. Had them in feet of snow last month and they performed fantastic. Stock limited size. Didn't want to go to a larger size, she is thirsty already.

    Wheel spacer question after lift?

    I was running Spidertrax wheel spacers with my stock limited tire size (265/60-18), but after replacing my tires with a new set of Duratracs, they rubbed pretty bad. So I took them off after 50 miles. The plan is to install a set of FJ coils that I just purchased with a set of 5100's at the...
