    LED Light Bars; Post Up Pics

    Here is my setup. I have two led light bars. I have a fourteen inch spot mounted low and a 32 combo mounted high. I also have two hids low in the bumper. I have the two hids and the 14 inch wired so that when you flip the brights on they come on. The top led light is wired so if I flip a...

    Nice the bedrack looks good. How does it differ from your old setup? Also I just saw the pics of the vac canister. Thanks for posting those up. I think I will try to stuff mine in there as well... gotta pull the batteries out again. For now it will sit where it is.... just sitting there.

    anybody ever make their own winch lines?

    Yeah, you're right. When winching the wraps are the strength. My thing is I tend to run with my winch line while I pull it out... sometimes I end up pulling pretty hard on the end (you know like a dog when they forget theyre on a leash). A crimped lug sometimes comes right off... making my...

    anybody ever make their own winch lines?

    Beowolf, Thanks for the responses. Your method seems strong but I dont think I would want to use up that much line and drum space. That viking lock is exactly what I was looking for!

    anybody ever make their own winch lines?

    thanks for the reply. That is true if you have a winch that has a hole in the drum to pass the cable through, however many winches just have a bolt that you bolt an eye too, this is how my winch is. I think I will probably end up just crimping an eye to it. Just wondering if anyone had a...

    anybody ever make their own winch lines?

    Anybody ever splice their own synthetic winch cable. I splice 12 strand all the time so putting some locking brummels in some amsteel to put a hook or clevis on the end is no big deal, however I am wondering how you do the other end. I have a sythetic winchrope on my smittybilt and it has a...

    Limited Slip Faceoff: Detroit TrueTrac vs. ARB Air Locker

    ....another note on the lunchbox... the chances of you getting one in without pulling the whole dif are slim to none, has anyone who has ever installed one of these actually pulled that off? They are a very tricky install.... for ease of install I choose the truetrac any day of the week

    Limited Slip Faceoff: Detroit TrueTrac vs. ARB Air Locker

    Just wanted to clarify with this one... I figure the poster has figured it out by now anyways, but you can't put a lunchbox in the front 8.8 ifs even though they make one for the 8.8 28 spline. Once the lunchbox is in there is no way to put the snaprings back on the axles to lock them in. Best...

    Berta: A 2004 F150 Overlanding Build

    I went with optimas. I already had a yellowtop in back for the house battery so I got a redtop for the front. I know there is some controversy about the optimas since they moved to mexico but hell more than half the batteries in the store and half the parts in this truck are from mexico. I...

    Ford Fullsize Thread !!!!

    Yeah it is the only one... I built it out of scrap me and my buddy had laying around. I couldn't fine one I liked so I went that route. All the commercially available ones seem ridiculously large and heavy. Mine is still quite stout, it saved my *** in an accident in honduras about five...
