    Go big or go home:

    "Lexan" of the scratch resistant variety (there are several) Plexiglass breaks too easily and doesnt offer the flex of lexan type materials. Probably like you, I have bounced a halligan off lexan on what should have been an easy break and rake to introduce the deftech-25, made me a believer...

    2020 F250 7.3 10 spd rear diff order question

    And its fuel economy...... if you can say that with a straight face driving a 7.3 . Im getting around 13.5 right now but the motor is still breaking in, while my c7 vette got around 25 at 90mph. Course the vette wasnt a 5000 lb brick shaped object punching a hole in the air ;)

    2020 F250 7.3 10 spd rear diff order question

    He could probably make the warranty stick with 35" tires and as Ford does that with the Tremor package, the tune would be the real issue (and something I considered when I ordered my tunes) considering the ability to check codes by the dealer. Lift and tires would make it more difficult on the...

    2020 F250 7.3 10 spd rear diff order question

    HeliNomad RAM PowerWagon Build

    On the upfitter switches, most major manufacturers use the same wiring harness for all builds, I bet you could order the mopar upfitter switch pack, pull the plate where that option goes, and find the connector already there somewhere on the harness. I know the f-250/ 350 is similar (...

    my experience with GMRS so far

    Wow, this is a lot of great information. Got my GMRS license a few months ago and some handhelds. Been playing around with them on hunting and dual sport trips in west texas (amistad and big bend) . As with any newbie I had no idea of some of the complexities involved and this thread is a...

    Slide in Camper Survey

    NOT affiliated with TC at all! but looking at your requirement , it seems that the best option (provided the material supported it) would be load/unload via removing the tailgate (I know ford tailgates come off in under a minute ) and have the whole rear panel fold down giving you access to the...

    Trip with firearm

    Great point ! Emphasis on the MOST CURRENT COPY. Gun laws change regularly, Open carry of a handgun in Texas was just made legal a few years ago with a permit (prior to that is was only concealed carry) as an example.

    Trip with firearm

    The below comments are for TEXAS only (aside from recommendations when stopped, those are pretty universal, having been stopped in most states in the union myself ;) As others have said, be sure to check each state, at least until your LTC gets here. Couple of quick Texas specific items. One...

    its "custom" as in the original builder (not me) took a reading tool bed and fabbed an aluminum popup to the top. He used high quality components and followed a popup design similar to the type FWC pioneered (pushup hard points at front and back. With the struts it self rises, but you gotta be...

    For Sale 2002 Silverado 1500 expedition rig Corpus Christi Texas 5500.00

    I bought this rig a few months ago, and have enjoyed the refit immensely, however the XO says that it isn’t to her taste and in the interest of domestic tranquility ( and the fact that she didn’t bat an eye at my f250 purchase) it has to go. Bulletproof 5.3 LS engine ( a tune and a low...
