Looking good!

I Have that same dash cam.

Which front bumper is that?

Any review on the wireless backup cameras?

Great dash cams. Have same one in the Jeep.

Bumper is an ARB Bull Bar. Incredible bumper, that has already saved my bacon in an accident with zero damage to my bumper or the truck. I had a brakeline failure on 405; slammed into a service van doing 35 mph, crushed his rear bumper and portions of rear doors. WHEW!!

The wireless backup cameras are working very well. Have had them installed for over a year now. Simple install; completed in the Lowes parking lot only using tools on board the truck. Took all of 40 min. I run them on constant reverse view, on a factory dash switch. The dual camera setup is awesome; can switch from one to the other or both.

Damn Arb only makes the Sahara bar (big chrome hoop) for my generation...

Can you link the cameras used? I thought you had, but didn't see it back where you did the install. I need a cam for the new truck.

The Bull Bar for this body style, my favorite Ford Truck body years, fits really nicely with the lines of the truck.

This is the brand I have. They offered it in a dual camera kit previously. Looks like single now, with additional camera add-on.

No problem. Wireless connection is impressive. Good, solid display consistently over thousands of miles of hwy and city.

Ordered some new meats for the truck today - TreadWright AT A/P 225/70r19.5s with Kedge Grip added and Micro Siping. Time for the Continentals and Generals to go. These should give some serious traction addition.

Plus found a 10% off code. Comes in handy, especially when buying 8 tires total (6 running, 1 spare and a stand-by).

NOOOOOO!!! Dont get them.

I had tread wrights on the old truck. Tread squirm like a ***** on heavy trucks.
Maybe the 19.5's are better, but I doubt it. The ones I had were on the same carcass as the tire that came off....

EDIT: wouldn't run them as steer tires either...

Going to give them a shot. My tires are beyond their life expectancy and are crap from traction. And, I have no plans to lift the truck to clear singles, anytime soon.

If these don't work-out, they'll be any easy sale locally. Already have a few contacts that will buy them the day offered. Always have a backup plan

OK good luck! It was the one thing I have regretted cheaping out on

Whats your trucks weight loaded?

Thank you. Have been searching other options, but not finding a true traction tire I want. I truly hate my Continentals and Generals. Any hint of road slush, and the rear end gets loose.

Haven't hit the scale, but mean to just about daily. Never seem to get there.

Guessing 10.5 K to 11K

Purchased a BubbaRope 28,500 tow rope, and Master Pull synthetic winch line. Time for the old steel cable to go away.
