    Best Truck Roof Top Tent for Weekend Camping?

    There's a couple Jeeps, a new Sequoia and a Bronco locally that have every one of those accessories but are SPOTLESS every time I see them. Then there's a couple older Lexus GX's and Landcruisers that have trail rash and are usually fairly dirty and I know they laugh at the others

    Yeah I don't think we have much for overlanders in here. An overlanding forum would be a better place to ask

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    Found this at a local antique shop a couple weeks ago. I initially grabbed it for my GF's brother cuz he has an '02 Viper. A couple days later I was looking closer at it and saw all the other stuff in the top corners, the Bill Thomas Cheetah, the Daytona Coupe, the Chaterham/Lotus 7 and the...

    dose anyone have any good pictures of a 3inch body lift

    As said there's a reason for that. They look like poop and just complicate many different aspects of the truck's functions and looks. Not worth it

    Front discs won’t release

    My brake light has been on for the last 2-3 months like my E-brake is engaged but it's not, the pedal isn't hanging or anything. I'm just assuming it's something in the prop valve, hoping it doesn't fail in either of those spectacular fashions lol

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I've seen a couple versions of these over the years that you can still mount a license plate to https://www.ebay.com/itm/326561538479?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item...

    Replacing a single frame rail, can it be done?

    I get what you're trying to do, but in all honesty, just rolling the complete new frame under it makes the most sense. Unless you're literally replacing the whole body/engine/etc and the frame will be the only tangible thing of your dad you have left. But if you're keeping at least most of the...

    Oh yeah, here's a good one for ya. So I tested the puddle lights and the mirror functions before I even painted the caps, just to make sure everything worked. Both worked fine. One of the last things I did for the night was swap LEDs in. All of a sudden, my driver's side puddle light died. I'm...

    Thanks! I've got a thread going over there too :happy175: I love weekends like this with a bunch of small mods that make a big difference

    K5 Blazer repaint cap body color or white? How to remove fading paint on fiberglass.

    If I were gonna pull the trigger on painting it, I still think I'd go white but man, I've gotta admit it looks real good tan too!

    Aftermarket A/C?

    Why on gods green earth would you consider hacking up your truck to do something like this? Either fix the factory AC so it works properly or put in a good aftermarket setup. If you can't afford it, ride with the vent windows turned open. Doing this will only completely ruin any value your...

    Show off your non-square project cars.

    Yeah I know all that, but the way the nose drops off and the bulbus dash make it impossible for me to see the nose of the car (I am short though lol). Idk if there's just enough difference in the pan or if it's more the seats or a combo of all that and the nose/dash issue but I just can't get...

    The very last thing I did Saturday night was install the LED 3rd brake light my dad got me for Xmas. I don't like how it looks but it's bright as hell, even the cargo lights are bright as hell and it didn't make my cruise stop functioning. So I think I'll order up some red tinted clear so I can...

    I didn't realize it till I was cleaned up and about to leave, I also needed to cut the light saber thing down a bit too. I'll do that sometime this week, looks like it needs a solid 3/8" or so cut off so it'll sit flush like the other one I also discovered the PO had glued these lenses into...

    Then I moved onto the Buick Rendevous AC knobs. You can see my original knob on the left, it's shaft retainer hole is a good bit smaller than the Buick's. Easy enough, just pull the metal retainer out and insert it into the Buick one The other knob was a bit trickier. It had a much...

    Overall though, it came out looking great. I didn't clear the grey in case I didn't like it and wanted to redo it, so it's a little rough to the touch. I did also have 1 spot of the woodgrain delaminate on me when I un-taped it. I'm thinking this bezel will be a good candidate to work on...

    Once the primer dried, I laid on some paint. I'd read that Ford Dark Shadow Gray is a pretty darn close match so I grabbed some of that on my way to the shop Unfortunately, once I sprayed it, the metallic showed me where the sand paper had gouged down in that rubberized coating. Good to...

    They're super easy to change, just release the 3 tabs on each side and it comes out the bottom Also swapped in my Esky interior handles while I was there And took some pictures for restoration reference in the future lol

    Plastic welding is much more difficult than I thought it would be. Especially in that small opening. I ended up melting the back edge of the bezel a bit without realizing it. And then it started to re-split on me, so I added some of the wire mesh the kit came with. Doing that, I accidently...

    There was still a bit of hazing after the last couple coats since they were sprayed out in the humidity, so I was worried about the clear. But it worked great! This is after the 2 coats and probably an hour of dry time. A good bit of orange peel but I ended up doing 5 coats of clear, so I can...

    Kept playing with my spraying, sometimes I can get away with super light coats when it's humid like this. Wasn't happening this time So that's like 4 coats there. For the last couple, I'd turned the AC on it's "dry" setting at like 74* in the office about an hour prior. So I did 2 final...

    Here's the backside. You're supposed to be able to use a pick or awl and bend those tabs up enough to get it to release. All I kept doing was stabbing the bellows on the adjustment motor, I think I managed to move one tab and it broke right off. So I figured if this is how it's gonna go, I'll...
