    SRW 450 Mountain Build

    During the height of the recession I was a repo man. We drove Ford F-350/450’s. Mostly 6.0’s and one 6.4. There was a week in January -30f where none off them would start. We were dumping diesel 911and putting a charger on each battery, they eventually started after a couple hours. We never...

    Small efficient overlander

    I liked my ‘17 Forrester with the 6spd it was almost fun, but it burned a lot of oil which is pretty lame. I also didn’t like how the rear seats didn’t fold flat like my old ‘01 s10 Blazer 4 door. You could sleep two people in the back of the blazer, not the forrester. The forrester also doesn’t...

    Battery issue or CTEK charger issue?

    I have a diehard charger like that. It has a switch that selects either “conventional/deep cycle” or “sealed maintenance free”. Does that setting change the voltage it’s charging at?

    weird driving light operation ..

    On the chevys if you wire up the driving lights to trigger off the high beams it doesn’t work right because the high beams are used as drl’s. The driving lights will be on when you don’t want them. I just pull the drl fuse to solve that. Maybe you’ve got something similar going on. Pull the...

    Hey Vortec Guys! / Sierra pickup / Suburban / Yukon etc - Finally has Index!

    Some engines definitely don't like certain plugs. When I bought my '01 Mustang GT the guy said it would spark knock on hard accell if he didn't run premium. I changed out the Bosh platinum plugs for factory spec units and the problem went away.

    Truck Caps

    Pool noodle, maybe that’s what I need. I hate the big gap I have. I like my side opening “windows” but I don’t like they’re not actually windows. I insulated mine and added rv type interior lights(with a dim red or bright white setting) as well as a couple usb chargers. EDIT: I wish it was a...

    Ford Superduty Tremor "off road" 2020 F250/F350.

    That’s what my ‘01 Mustang GT would run, and it felt fast. Funny how those are now minivan and pickup truck numbers.

    Hey Vortec Guys! / Sierra pickup / Suburban / Yukon etc - Finally has Index!

    Yeah, the Densos I installed are supposed to be good for 100k but I’ll change them out well before then.

    Hey Vortec Guys! / Sierra pickup / Suburban / Yukon etc - Finally has Index!

    I had some engine trouble this week with my 2011 2500 6.0. A misfire during low rpm/high load conditions, like climbing a steepish hill at highway speeds in 6th gear. Scanner said misfire at cyl #5. Stuttering engine, flashing check engine light etc. I could make it stop by manually...

    7 Pin for charging + 4 pin for driving?

    Yes it's powered from my tow vehicle. I think I understand what you're saying and I appreciate the help. Is there anyway to know if these products will work together without "bypasses voltage regulation of the PV controller"...

    7 Pin for charging + 4 pin for driving?

    I'm unsure what you're saying. Should I not have a ground going from the trucks battery to the charge controller? There's already a ground in the 7 pin connection that I assume grounds the truck's and the trailers batteries together, but I thought I should add the additional ground since I was...

    7 Pin for charging + 4 pin for driving?

    I was planning on running separate wiring, 10/2 duplex with Anderson powerpole type connectors at the back. Running 36v back through the existing wiring is an interesting idea though.
