Great build and work! In this pic, I noticed what looks to be a Go Light on the front of the camper. Is that what it is and if so, how did you do the wiring to control it or is yours a wireless model? I have one that has a wired controller and been trying to figure out how to control it from...
Weird, they are not offering the synt. line option in 12K rating. Seems like an oversight for those of us who need the capacity but don't want the weight or issues of steel cable. Guess I stay with my current plan of a Superwinch Talon in 12.5K synt.
Unlike Alcan, National will want weights of your front and rear axles, loaded. This is the only true way of getting the correct lift for a given weight. Keep in mind, if you alter your weight (i.e. unloaded), you will end up with a different height and ride quality. This is the one area that...
Nice!!!
To fix this, you have to change out the gear drive on the transfer case speed sensor. You should see a wire and plug on the output of the transfer case. One bolt holds a clamp that you remove and pull out the assembly. The gear/shaft just pulls out of the assembly and you push in the...
Actually I had them built to basically sit me at stock hight fully loaded though. Any higher and it would have to use a step stool to undo the latches on the camper and it would raise my CG more. Two things I didn't want. They could have built in any lift I wanted. Loaded up I am at about...
I looked into doing this here in CA. It would save a bunch off the registration and a little cheaper on insurance but the biggest downside was I could never drive the truck without the camper installed. As it is, the camper basically lives full time on the truck BUT there is the occasion I...
I think the main problem you will have is it will not physically fit between the tailgate opening. Early models were built for trucks of the era and the tailgate openings were wider then in later years. Your's being a '99 bed, I think they are 2-3" narrower than the camper. Stan at FWC can...
I have been very happy with my National Springs. Getting rid of the factory lift blocks took care of the wheel hop in soft/sand conditions and on the road it rides like a Caddy.
Be gone lift blocks!!!
My wife had a 1st gen Sportage and said it was reliable and she was very happy with it. She then bought a 1st gen Sorrento that was an epic pile of junk. The Sorrento had tons of electrical problems, warpped rotors that could only be bought at the dealer and failing paint. She was very sorry...
Having always loved the Rugar 10-22 rifle for a nice plinker/small varmant gun, when I saw this new model, I knew I had to have one. It's the new 10-22TD (Take Down) that features a quick release barrel. It allows you to break down or put together the rifle in a matter of seconds but packs...
Some of our pup Ellie from April this year. A rare snow day.
This is SO much fun papa!!!
What's this rock doing here?
I know there's something down there...
