Window door glass

Do you remember if there is a way to tighten the glass to where it sits in the track? When I have my window down and close the door it rattles like crazy. Same with big bumps.

So what keeps the glass in place are 2 screws.. I can imagine if they were loose they just need to be tightened.. But because yours is rattling so bad... I would say maybe it got so loose that maybe one of the screws fell out and is probably floating around in the door

Is it too late to ask for help??? It's still a work in progress and Im not done yet....
I would like to compensate you for your time

Not at all! I'll message you my number

sticker bombed wind fairing

been accumulating stickers for dayyyyyyzzzzzz...
been saving up for something big like this sticker bomb i did for my ROLA vortex wind fairing.
haven't put it back on because I'm experimenting with either clear coating it or NEVER WET-ting it...i want to make sure it lasts and doesn't get compromised from weather & such

any suggestions/advice?

 

[4Running Daily]

I'd do a clear vinyl rap over it

1.5" body lift

finally got to my 1.5" body lift from [MENTION=14772]shootmymime[/MENTION] ... never did receive the 2 bolts for the steering extension.... so i had to purchase those from a hardware store... that kind of sucked

thanks [MENTION=100687]Konkordmusk[/MENTION] for helping me make quick work of this job... did it in 3 hours.... the day before i helped [MENTION=108892]artemgzn[/MENTION] and it took over 7 hours!!! The benefit of power tools. my goodness. we did have lunch in between though

i sticker bombed the pucks.. yeah i know you won't be able to see them but if you DO look you will see it... it was just for fun as I'm trying out a little JDM sticker bombing theme on my truck. the pan hard bar is next for a sticker bomb after the drop bracket is installed after my lift..... pending black friday, hopefully find a deal.

any ideas to lift the rear tow hitch without flipping and getting an older one that CAN flip?..
i was think of unbolting it, modifying it so that it sits higher but still uses the factory bolts.... which seems impossible without cutting the heck out of that thick metal

 

[shootmymime]

oh man im sorry i spaced on those 2 bolts.

Seeing the purple pucks makes me think how long ago you ordered. haha
that wrap looks cool on them.

how was the install?

It's all good but I got the wrong thread the first time and I was like this definitely isn't right. So then I got a metric nut..

Install was good! Only 3 hours.. But the day before I helped another member and it took us 7 hours.. Sheesh'

Don't forget than an hour of that was spent fuxing with the arb haha

Sweet, let's get to wrenching!

I would be honored to have a helping hand from one of the nicest guys on here, the one and only Robert...and a couple other tremendously helpful individuals Id like to mention that I met from here... [MENTION=76627]nor_cal51501[/MENTION] & [MENTION=100687]Konkordmusk[/MENTION] just to name a few. You guys are way too nice

And with my body lift. Them rear shocks should be a breeze!!!

The hardest part will probably be trying to fit those 9 wraps in the rear

I think the plan is to wrench at my place this time, either that or the new shop I work at. I'm not worried about the 9 wraps, I fit my 861's by disconnecting the panhard bar and then having some guys sit in the back so I could reconnect it hahaha

Stop you're making me blush...:redface:

I'm just paying it forward for all the help I've been given over the years. It will be nice to work with the 1.5" BL. Never done a lift with one so I can only imagine it will be easier. The 9 wraps won't be bad if we have some ratchet straps.

A shop to put a lift on, count me in. That would be so nice. I'm down to meet up and help and maybe since you guys have welders I can do the steering shaft mod requiring two tack welds.

If it's not raining!

And yeah, I did. We can use the forklifts at the new shop to lift the trucks though

We dont even need ratchet straps, we just push down on the truck with a forklift
I'd be more than happy to tack your steering shaft as well!
Let me talk to the boss man and see if we can set a time up that's convenient for all of us. Rob, can you message me your number so we can talk easier?
