ryanrs posted:So do hydraulic e-brakes need secondary brake calipers? They don't work with the existing brake system, right? The logistics of routing your brake lines in to two different hydro brakes inside is going to be a right pain in the rear end. It will look cool AF, of course. Electric line locks may be a simpler solution as someone up thread mentioned. Hold the brakes down, engage one of two locks, and see if you can drive off. They're not cheap, but less than the hydros.

Prerunner style front bumper. Edit:it'll have to be custom built obviously. Not much more than a couple of tubes and some tabs for KC Hi Lights.

It's certainly the last thing. Hit it fast and make it worse. I'd suspect if you tried to cross anything deeper than your headlight you'd just float off.

Deteriorata posted:If you're going to go in water at all, I would vote for a snorkel - if only a short one that stuck just a few inches above the hood. The main value would be you could see it and exactly how high the water level is. I would not trust the under-hood intake to stay dry when I couldn't see what was going on. Water could get kicked up by pulleys, belts, radiator fans, or who knows what else and you could find yourself hydrolocked in water several feet below the actual intake level. Sienna Shaker.

I love copper nickel tubing and I have a gang of it I'm about to use on my car. It's pretty cheap and I have a ton of it, I bought a roll and found my old roll too. Lmk if I can mail it to you. I will have no use for it in a weeks time.

Is it just ineffienct burning while the vehicle warms up? I get a gas smell on my 15 Sierra when I remote start it in the morning. I can smell it when I'm near the tailpipe.

They're in the little quarter turn sockets right? You'll probably have to half-assed hook it up to test, that does sound like a pain in the rear end.

Did you pick up those tubing bending pliers? I got some really nice tight 90 and 180 bends with them. The trick is to walk em down the bend as you go, don't try to bend the whole thing at once. Make four 22 degree bends instead of one 90.

Online LED Store wiring I really liked the relay box I got from these guys, it came out very clean and professional looking to me. I haven't used their switch panels or anything (yet) and I wouldn't hesitate to try. I like the one kastein linked too, having them bussed is nicer than the one I linked. Also that's a great note on switching the ground. StormDrain fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Jul 15, 2021 |

Absolutely it is. Your door open switch to turn on the interior lights and your horn both operate that way. You can just run a single wire to your switch and ground it locally. Makes it very simple.

Ya number two is the dumbest. I'd take the weight penalty just in case. After I watched this video I started daydreaming about a receiver hitch winch, hopefully someday I find a need or get a bonus and I'll get one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0z0rME6CPA

Practical and cheap! I'm a fan. I've been looking at some rails like these: Tie down rails For my truck bed. I'd be tempted to put a couple down on the floors to make it easier and more convenient when you swap. Meaning you don't have to put four bolts in and you can put the tie down loops where you want.

Im sure you wouldn't be beating that back into shape for very long. I'd just go for it at whatever seems like thr least impactful time. And you make it the most impactful. Put the edge on a scrap of wood and go to town.

What do you do for refrigeration? Smoked turkey leg sounds like great camp food. I like to prep a whole Dutch oven meal on bags and have that, if you have a way to have leftovers that could be a few days worth.
