I’m installing something similar but my mirror dimming function is probably no longer useful anyway. I put a cap on the truck and between the cap’s privacy glass and then the truck’s privacy glass, very little light makes it through. My rear view mirror isn’t quite useless, but it’s close enough...
Your member profile display suggests that you’re moving to Texas. Depending on where in Texas, that would kill the issue with ice and slush buildup on the front of the running boards even without the mud flaps. Don’t throw away your ice scraper though. You’ll need that for getting your tires...
I appreciate the input. Wouldn’t have imagined that it’d have anything to do with mirror dimming since the sensor is on the front of the mirror, but the light differential explanation makes sense.
My truck has ACC, all the collision warning/avoidance features, auto dimming functionality and rain sensing wipers. I understood (perhaps incorrectly) that the sensors for these features were behind the housing mounted on the windshield. If I’m right, what is this here for? I’m considering...
My plan was to tap into the tailgate release actuator power lead and use that to activate a relay that would then power the cap’s lock actuator. I was going to set it up to actually pop the latches and raise the rear glass anytime the tailgate was dropped and didn’t care about raising the glass...
My father has a laser mounted above that shines through the windshield onto a spot on his dash which he has memorized as his stopping point. Seems like a great idea, though probably a superfluous one for his situation. in spite of his truck being a 2500 Mega Cab, he has at least 4 feet in front...
Here you go. This guy is building his own air links out of components listed elsewhere on this site. I was going to build my own, but his pricing was close enough that it just wasn’t worth it. Also, I’m happy to support a guy operating a small business and selling good products at realistic...
Bringing this one back to life... I appreciate the pictures drsubbie. I did some damage to my tailgate and scratched the paint on my bumper at the same time. My repair estimate includes paintwork on the bumper, but after hearing from you (and the guy I bought my Leer cap from) on how flimsy the...
Ive got 35” Ridge Grapplers on 20” wheels and have very, very minor rub on very rare (read so minor and so rare that I haven’t bothered to try and find out where) occasions. My truck is leveled with pucks and air links. All I did to mitigate the possibility of rubbing before I bought the tires...
I really like it, but only use it when I'm in the right frame of mind. If my mindset is hyper destination centric, I typically don't use cruise of any sort as I'm not willing to give up much control with regards to my pace. When I'm in a go with the flow mood, adaptive cruise allows me to enjoy...
Looked at your second picture and because of the location and brand of that pump bottle of hand sanitizer, I was convinced that you‘d photographed the interior of my truck in some random parking lot. I thought about it from a more rational (meaning less booze influenced) perspective though, and...
Well I just broke down and bought the harness shown in post #61 above. Seems to work just fine and was 100% plug and play. Now working on a solution for “automating“ the hatch/window. I’m after the same no key, no external latch, no need to dig the fob out of my pocket functionality that my...
Oh it was brutal. If I understand your location correctly, this’ll make sense... I was early in my self employment when I bought the truck and for a few years I found myself driving from Magnolia to Pearland, Clear Lake, Texas City or Lake Jackson at least twice per week, and from Magnolia to...
330k on my 2011 (still have it) and it has destroyed the cam due to lifter failure twice. Oil changes were religiously performed at 5k with synthetic oil and levels were meticulously maintained. Didn’t keep me from buying my 5th gen Limited.
To continue...
As much as I liked and appreciated the PE Ultragroove, I’ve always wondered what It be like if the time constraints of our summer trip would have allowed for a topper. Both with this truck and my Bak Flip equipped 4th gen, there have been a few occasions where we needed to carry...
I haven’t updated in a while, but changes have been made. My wife and I had to make a 5k mile road trip in July and it looked like the Limited was going to be our ride. I needed a secure bed cover, but was undecided on what route to take. A hard tonneau cover or cap/topper were the two choices...
I just bought a shell (Leer 100XQ) yesterday from an individual and this thread has been a valuable resource. I’m curious though what to do with the existing third brake light and cargo lights mounted on the cab? I’d rather deactivate them, but I’m sure that if I pull the plug it’ll give me a...
