For a street driven truck, radius arms and panhard/trac bar will be more enjoyable. Triangulated 3 or 4 link with draglink will have all sorts of feedback through the steering wheel.
Not an expert either, but I have used it.
Turned off Hyperflash for LED blinkers
Reset TPMS range for 38" tires
Only adjusted tire size for within option range, and then cleared soft code permanently with option to recalibrate BCM/TCM. Still about 6% off.
Turned off DRL
Use it to force DPF...
Soapy water everywhere. Inflate the tire to maximum on sidewall. Use a spray bottle and mix a solution of dishsoap and water. Spray the valve area first. If no bubbling, spray the beads, both sides. Spray the surface until you find bubbles.
Another way if you have a large storage bin large...
I run the Firestone Ride Rite bags on Daystar cradles. Allows me to have softer springs for empty driving and maintain a level ride stance when loads increase.
To get the wires to the ceiling, just remover the Holy $#!÷ Handle and pop the A-pillar cover off.
If you want the dash cam to turn on when the truck turns on, find a circuit in the fuse box that energizes in the key position you want.
Thanks. I did originally have the relays all in the engine bay and only triggers going through the firewall, but due to some missing information from BD, I needed to figure something else out to make everything work. Also, the climate I live in is wet and I have had corrosion on contacts over...
Well, figured out the wiring to turn on the DRLs when shifting out of PARK. Wire a SPDT relay with key switched power going to #30 and 85, SEIC Blue/grey wire to 86, and power out to (in my case on the diagram above ) Acc/Run on the switch. I still need to wire it up as I only did a test with...
I had been running PIAA halogen lamps since 2004 on various trucks. Recently I had one set's beam pattern shine everywhere but have the driving pattern they started with. Originally I thought it was the HID bulbs I retro-ed in, but I put PIAA bulbs back in without improvement. I purchased 2 pair...
There's a guy here in Whistler that does a lot of Vanagon stuff, parts and restos. Next time I see him I'll ask how to contact him. My neighbour has a Westphalia Vanagon and is in the loop of where to get stuff. He swapped in a Subaru engine last year, plus a bunch of upgrades to A/C and brakes
How fast are you driving at night? That's 180km/h across the desert in a trophy truck type output. I just have a pair of LP6 Amber Combos installed while I await the backordered pair of LP9 White Spots. Brightness and range is impressive with just the small lamps.
Well, wired it up, and it does as intended.
I only used the ON-OFF-ON switch because I had them, but would just use am ON-ON switch if I had to buy.
Will still want to find a signal wire which registers "Out of Park" or "In Gear" for my DRL signal. Anyone know which/where it is?
Hello. Please critique this diagram. For Baja Designs LP6 (1 pair) and LP9 (1 pair) lamps. The Diagram is for one pair of lamps. A second exact one for the 2nd pair of lamps.
A few notes.
- Low beam power must be off when high beam is powered. Warning on manufacturer's literature.
- DRL must...
