I have similar fitment on my f-250, although i run them through the winter and have a rock chukin tread, but it has basically sandblasted the inside lip of my fenders. Trucks with factory 20s get those barely noticeable plastic fender flares. If it was me, i'd just get a roll of that 3m clear film, and run it round the painted portion of the inner fender.

Can you get away without a notch with a flip kit on that thing?

With the state of the city's roads, you might want a hydraulic bump stop or something, too. I drove up 178th the other day, which is to say i drove up what's left of 178th.

That looks loving amazing, but your air dam is not long for this world.

some FX-4 skidplates might also be on the bill.

Around here the problem isn't the snow, it's what's under it.

I'm curious though, did the kit include shims to correct the driveline angle?

I would like to dedicate this post as a gently caress you to the current weather. It has been below -25C for over two weeks now and it is simply to cold for me to complete any work in my garage. My 1500W heater and full garage wall and door insulation cannot keep up.

I found a trailer battery box that I can make work for $20. All hurdles are eliminated, expect for my lack of sufficient heat.

Once it warms up (whenever that will be), more progress.

Day 7 Is +1*c

I've also been brain storming ideas on side stripes. 80's/90's colour schemes of teals, purples and pinks.

Top of the list right now is this:

Except,
Black -> Satin Purple
Blue -> Gloss Metallic Teal
Top empty area -> Fluorescent Pink


I'm out of practice and fighting gimp but i gave it a shot.

I couldn’t find, are you running any kind of different bump stops for towing with the flip kit?

You might need to add some engine to your turbo.

Why seal the tail lights? Wouldn't it save a lot of stress to just put a little hole in the bottom and let the water drain out?

tail lights generally do have vents, but unless you stop tons of water from getting in, you'll have condensation.

I can't imagine a rotary would enjoy water/methanol injection, huh.

That's the diesel quick fix for EGTs

A gas turbine with a rotary power-adder?

I saw this and thought of you.

Might be good for some cheap spares if you have somewhere to store stuff.

Right, so updates. The AutoX season is now officially over and apparently there are "trophies".



Congrats, but you think they would have something more polite that "slow class"

Going to Grande Prairie is almost never a good idea. Worth it for the awesome poster though.
