Full steel skid plates on everything, drawer system with 1000 piece socket set, dual AGM batteries, twin air compressor, steel rear bumper with full-size spare tire and double gas can hanger, plus ladder. Be sure to rip out the interior and add about 120lbs of sound deadening mat :)

Correct. Also, download the test pink noise track from Kicker to your phone. Read the amp instructions regarding the dip switches, then read them again :) There are a couple youtube vids (5 star car audio) that cover how they set theirs up (your situation may be different, but you’ll get the...

Kenwood KSC-SW11 subwoofer. I did have to put some little 1/2" or 3/4" wood blocks under the mounting brackets to clear the heater vent. Then routed the controller up under the center console to come out just behind the seat heater switches. Wire into the doors was tight, but there is room. I...

Love mine! I installed two of them under the driver seat (with raise bracket) a full suite of different speakers throughout, and a sub under the passenger seat (see signature). Sounds amazing after tuning. The time alignment does crazy things for sound quality. Just using one for the front...

Yes, those areas are accessible above the steering shaft and pedals. Pull the kick panels, have a light small enough to fit but throws a flood beam, and you can see the areas on the interior side of the firewall. Getting your hand on them can be another matter, but between poking holes in the...

I like mine Bought on one of the first group buys, heated with turn signal. No distortion, and fixed one my peeves about the narrow mirror view I had with the stockers. However, the old saying, "objects in mirror are closer than they appear" holds true. If it looks like a vehicle is behind...

2019 trd orp Lifted, 285/70-17 Duratracs.... 15-17 is the norm for me, no matter if on the highway at 75 or the city in relatively stop-n-go traffic. Narat

On the list of shame 2019 TRD ORP, build tag 11/18, purchased Dec 26th, 2018, and it's on the list. :Cry:

Blind Spot Monitoring

My 2 cents One of my automotive professors way back when had a saying, "The weirder the problem, the more likely it is a bad ground". A few years as a technician proved that statement more than once. Based on what you described, I would be very suspicious of a bad ground, whether that's a...

While I had the center console out, I routed about 3" of wire and the sub controller between the very back of the shift console panel and the console. Let my arm drape over the top of the console in a comfortable position, and wherever my hand fell is where it stuck, which happened to be just...

Thread was finally locked, so I say start another one. We have the tools, we have the means, we shall rebuild.

2009 BMW R1200GS Adventure Started with dirt bikes as a young teenager (1978 Yamaha MX100, 1988 Kawasaki KX125). Raced some hare scrambles (badly) but enjoyed it. Went about 10 years without one, and when I finally had the means and the time, I got the BMW to camp across the mountain west...

Shaft or Knuckle Not the title to a terrible 70's porn. You're going to need both, as there's not a product that cover both the knuckle and the shaft. My solution was a set of BPF protectors coupled with the following: Boots! couple seconds with a pair of scissors to cut out a quarter inch...

Kiss I like this guy's approach for $40. Kayak hoist. A Simple $40 RTT Storage Hoist!
