FMULINO's **Build Thread**

[3wbdriver]

Yes that's still the plan, but I'm holding my expenses a bit right now. With all of this Oil Prices dropping (I should be happy about gas prices) we are uncertain on what will happen to our jobs up here. I'll do it later maybe in the summer when things clear up a bit.

I'm in the same boat down here. Guess this gives me time to really research what rear bumper I want to get. Eventually.......

Revtek Suspension

Hi

Fellow Albertan here

I got a 2014 trail edition. How do you like the ride quality after installing revtek?

I know you installed it before you drove it off the lot but I was wondering if you notice changes/better/worse ride.

I just don't feel like spending $4000 on ICON coilovers....


Thank you in advance and sweet rig!!!!

Not Bad

Hi, well is hard to tell you the difference between with or without the lift, it rides like a truck, but it really isn't too bad I did I road trip last year with my grandparents from Fort Mc to Spokane and they said they were comfortable in the back, my wife has an Audi Q5 and if I compare my suspension to that yeah I can tell there's a huge difference but I bought and off road vehicle so I don't expect it to be super soft. Long story short I would go for it I don't regret at all. [MENTION=101457]KiruxaT4R[/MENTION]

8" LED Bars Behind Upper Grill

Hi guys I finally got this mod done, I'm pretty happy with the results I got it done last night and went out and tested it and it's pretty awesome. here are some pics. [MENTION=48186]cougar428[/MENTION] was asking about this mod.

 

[cougar428]

Those look awesome. I love the way your front end looks with the new bumper and lights

Truck looks great with the new front end goodies, what kind of switches did you use for the lights?

 

[fmulino]

Still haven't received the switch I bought. I'm using the shitty one that came With the wiring harness. But I bought a switch from air on board and the LED bars are from OPT7 actually the wiring harness amd switch are good I just say shitty because the switch is round and doesn't match my switches. But Air on board has OEM tyoe switches. I'll post pics when I get the . [MENTION=90192]2chains[/MENTION]

Single Row 21" LED Bar on Bumber

I'm wondering how a single row LED bar will look on this bumper, I like this model since is not too bulky. This LED things are addictive lol. What do you guys think?

Where'd you get the wiring harness from? I'm looking to install an LED light bar as my first mod and don't want a crappy one that will fry the instant i turn it on.

 

[fmulino]

Hi [MENTION=123365]Flix[/MENTION] the wiring harness came with the LED Bar, I'm very happy with the quality of the Bar I bought it from Ebay and the Brand is OPT7 they have 2 models the C1 and the C2. I got the C1 because I didn't know at the time that the C2 was 30% Brighter. But if you buy it there it comes with the harness and the switch.

I'm so glad I ran across your build. I have the same truck as 2014 and you did most of the items that I want to do. I live in PA so I won't look like a copycat though. Those bumpers are crazy for $850 though.

20" LED Bar on Bumber

 

[Rein]

How did you mount up the lights in the upper grill. Did you just drill holes into the metal support right there behind the grill?

 

[nkybrad]

Going to look at a 2014 TEP next weekend in this color and this build has completely sold me on the color and model. Absolutely love the lift, ties, bumper, roof rack and lights. Great build brother!

 

[fmulino]

[MENTION=120827]Rein[/MENTION] yes that's exactly what I did. but to tell you the truth I'm not happy with the performance of the lights behind the grill. I'm going to move them up to the rack later on.
