Looks sharp, how annoying are the tires on asphalt? Loud? Do they track nice? I’m looking to do similar on my 21 gasser. Probably ATs though
.
People rave about the Aisin and I’m pretty impressed with the 8 speed auto in my truck, I imagine the SO tranny must be pretty good?? 68RFE I assume...
/\ what specific tarp is that? Cost is not my driving factor, and I’m certainly not drilling holes in my camper specifically for a $99 awning. I’m working on a modular system, that I’ll post up when refined a bit

Lots of good idea, I definitely need better back up lighting. Turning my CC LB around on a snow covered state road at night with falling snow was tough(road closed due to accident

Tracked this down, one plus of the two piece design-really easy to remove one side when it’s all wet and sandy.
I can remember trying to wrestle a cold, stiff one piece Husky liner full of sand out of my pathfinder

Isn’t POR15 only for already rusted metal?
I don’t think it’s even that good of a paint(on clean metal)
I believe it’s not even UV stable and needs a top coat.(and yes I get the frame is usually in the shade :). )

Dude - I’ll consider most any opinion, but if this is your MO, then why are you cluttering up a Tire Chain topic?

I went with this too. It’s pretty new to the market, but a few low key you tube tests seem to prove it stays on the frame longer than Fluid Film.
Fluid Film (very popular in the North East) and Blaster Surface Shield are Lanolin based. Fluid film works great, but doesn’t last very long. It...
As I stated(and you quoted) - it’s two different scenarios.
Most of New England is good about quickly clearing major roads down to bare asphalt( too good really, the brine and salt stuff they use just eats vehicles). So the roads are clear, traffic is going (too fast) and I can’t be doing 30...
Wow talk about chain overload….. too many choices!
Thanks for all the great input, much appreciated!
I’ll check out the quick-fit type some more.
I have the stock 285/70-r18 now, but am planning to go up a couple sizes. I need to see if I can cover both size tires with one set of chains...
I have a Napa $99 special, but I have not done anything with it yet either.
Did you get the Roadhouse with screens?
It’s looks pretty cool if usable on a camper

I started a chain thread if anyone felt like posting there :)

If there is already one here on Expo please point the way.
I have never had chains for my truck. We used to chain our tractors for logging when I was a kid, so I have played with them a quite a bit, but these were fairly loose and had huge lugged rings.
I searched and found this with lots of...
I went with Progressive on my Northstar Adventurer.
Super easy to get and cheap. Just under $170 per year for actual cash value replacement and $250/500 deductible.

The new and old solutions
I originally fished a black USB C to Lightning cable through a hole I drilled in the driver side dash rubber lined pocket. I drilled a hole big enough for the IPhone end. I then used a leather punch to make a hole that fits snugly around the cable in the rubber piece...
Happy Holidays!
Great interior build shots!
What does reality look like these for days
for those of us on the East coast USA?
I tried several times (admittedly some months ago) to buy a flat panel kit or a shell.
At first the shipping a container was prohibitive (I think at the time it was...
I bought this, it took a little over a week to get, pretty good for the Xmas package season.
It works really well and was easy to set up. I have only had it a couple days, and have not played too much, but if I’m in and out of the truck a lot(running errands) then there is a delay and once in a...
