I started with doors (inner & outer panel) and it was great improvement of sound quality over stock, so if you don't feel like ripping off your whole cabin, I would go this way...One roll of BAM XXXL is 35 sq.fr is 350-400$, You should be able to do all 4 doors of a supercab with one roll (don't...

Would be so good to smash some of these scum with 4 tons on American steel :lol2:

Last picture is correct, cylinder #8 is the one closest to firewall, driver side... I had same misfire problem, but only during very hot weather this summer, over 100-104 deg...I did change plugs few days ago and all coil wires + cop on that cylinder...Nothing unsual was noticed...I was late...

Carrying a stock UCA isnt bad idea at all, we both have a complete OEM suspension laying down in the garage... No winch but I do have some tow hooks on front bumper. As for communication, where we go (North Africa) you'r not allowed to carry a VHF or anything like this, it's only allowed...

Hello offroaders ! I'm reviving that old thread to do some update on my offroad tool box, including all the stuff we need for our upcoming trip with my friend JtoU We've come a loooong way since my first trip and truck is now far from being stock... :lol2: Both trucks will be running full SVC...

I'm about to buy these tools (1" & 1.5") too... Where do you buy your uniballs RDFTS treypal ? I'm also interested in buying some of these 300 pins to have some spare ones for upcoming trip...What ya think JtoU ?

Must be Heims UCA. I have the Rogue UCAs with bushing and they don't make any noise, plus you have a grease zerk on the bushings

Steering is for pussies... :biggrin:

Doesnt sound so bad, just wait until you have fuse 27 melting, an IWE popping and the third brake light short circuit... :lol2:

Well thanks for the precious advices, Didn't know there was so much issues of broken chase/light racks on bed rails... With full SVC podium packages coming for me and JtoU, I think everyone will agree that we are meant to do some serious offroading, so I have my answer...Bed cage... That damn...

Hello everybody, I'm about to start the fabrication of a chase rack, and was wondering what was the easiest access on the bed rails to drill & bolt the chase rack... I want to use that flat area on bed rails (4"x6") near the cabin, can't have access from the bed, unless I cut some holes like...

I feel like quoting some company that start with a "S" and end with a "C"... :lol2:

Maybe, one day...lol...

You'r one lucky f*cker !! Shocks look clean now, good job !

WTF did they do with these shocks ??!! :win: Those are the stock FOX shocks, gotta find something to remove that black coat, but it may destroy the blue anodized & stickers on the shocks body...

Replaced my old chinese LED pods with some Bajadesign Squadron Pro & Racer series. Smaller but three times brighter, and a little more expensive :lol2: Thanks again @ Bailey from Baja Designs for their great customer service !

Well that's definitely better than stock pads... :drool2:

Well my guess is FOX has the upper hand on this, they'r selling a LOT of shocks, so why should they really care about a few customers actually using their shocks like it was intended...lol... For me this all come down to a R&D issue, someone at FOX should have figured out that rock guards are...

Well that's good to know, I'm thinking of changing these rotors later in 2017, already have a sh*t ton of stuff to install, my wallet is seriously shot haha !! Wilson I don't do that much kilometers here at home, usually enough to do one pads change once a year, but because of our offroad...

Hey, just a question out of curiosity...I'm wondering about switching mu rusty OEM rotors to some Premier series rotors, but would like to stay on OEM brake pads (more easy to find here in Europe...), would it make any sense to use upgraded rotors with OEM brake pads ? Will I notice a stronger...

Just wanted to let you know guys that FOX has finally accepted to make a 30% discount on my early broken adjusters...Would expected to have more, but at least FOX was smart enough to take my issues in consideration and make a move in my direction...

The shock shields from the 2.5" stockers were damaged like the shock bodies in upper photo, as you would expect as this is just plastic, but nothing serious... The design of these 3.0" FOX is actually quite weird when you take to compare those with KING or Icons, the comp tubes are soooo low...
