I am working on just that right now. I'm looking at a 125 to 140 watt panel that could be snapped in place on the roof kind of like the engle slide lock. I don't do many trips where I'm not running all day but for speed week at Bonneville and a couple other trips I do where I'm not driving all...
Yes and it would make it more secure. I installed a lock on my tail gate so even with the back flap of the bestop open you cant get much out of there. By lowering the tent rack and sliding it back a few more inches you would close it up even more, including the reach in acess on the sides. I...
For the most part nothing has changed as far as stowage and unloading. Most of my gear I unload is in two medium action packer boxes that I just slide out along with a table and a chair or two. Engle fridge is in the cab behind the passenger seat. Anything else that wont be unloaded gets packed...
Here you go
I ran like this for 3.5 years without any problems. eezi awn 1400 on a rack I built under a best top. In the time I had this set up I never had anything stolen or messed with. The Bestop isnt the most secure thing but out of sight out of mind goes a long way. The truck is a daily...
I remember reading quite a few of you really liking your 12 volt blankets. I just got this heater clearance e mail from Northern and they have them on clearance. I have never used one and know nothing about this one but the price seems right? Thought I would pass it on. Tim...
I used a 3/4" od 1/2"id bronze bushing through the two nylon flippac bushings in the hinges then just bolted it up with a 1/2" stainless bolt and some washers that were bigger than the nylon bushings in the hinge. It will be easy to see once you get the broken bar out. As far as that goes you...
Here are pics of what I ended up with, I think Rhino did his very similar. I fully intended to buy a new torsion bar along with the cover and a set of bushings and a handle. I called flippac and was told they were out of torsion bars but had the other parts and would call when they got the...
And thank you for instigating this whole thing. Curious to hear if you ever ended up treating your fly with anything? I remember reading you were thinking about it as an additional measure. Thanks again. Tim
I know lots of people have had bad service from Flippac but in my few dealings with them they were easy to get a hold of by phone and were happy to answer questions and even call me back as promised when parts came in. I would talk to them and see if they have an idea or two, Yours looks like...
Have you gone around that top seal with something like a credit card or even a plastic business card trying to see where the seal might be weak by sliding the card between the seal and the seating surface. I tried that and my corners are tighter than the middle going down the sides or across...
Im chasing a leak on my drivers side that soaks the carpet on the mounting flange, I thought it was coming in from the shell to bed seal. Turns out after pulling off the inside window trim it is the seal between the outside window frame and the shell. Its coming out on monday for a silicone...
The one I have is probably 20-25 yrs old and the tent is still in good shape, It is a thinner material than the eezi awn I had , It is not waterproof or even resistant without some kind of treatment . It does seem like it is a quality material judging by the age of mine and the shape it is in...
I ended up using 2 of those led panels in the rear fixture and one up front, More than enough light inside. Out back I use the same led flood on a little mast to get it up out of the eyes, plenty of adjustable light for cooking or setting up. Also added a couple 12v outlets very similar to...
Looks great! I have done a couple of the same mods as well. I even have the same flood light out back only I put it on a extendable mast. I will try to get a few pics in the next few days.
I dont know if this helps but these are what I run on my 2007 Tacoma with 255/85/16s, you can see the holes adjacent to the valve stem are oblong rather than round. When I bought them the guy said they were off a 2005 tundra and he said something about the back spacing being a little different...
