What did u do to your raptor today?

[BramageDained]

I bought some new ratchet straps for holding the spare/recovery stuff in the bed and a new locking pin for the receiver. My old straps and pin got owned by salt this winter.

I had to cut the pin with a portaband to get it off.

Does it count if Krazy House Customs did the work? If so I did a lot

Installed the AVS bug shield. I can't almost tell it's there! It's a hard acrylic that sticks to your hood with 3M tape. Let's see how it holds up.

I learned things today.

1. Skid plates look good when rattlecanned. redneck, white trash, ghetto or brown trash as the beibs suggested. its gonna work.







2. Skid plates are heavy to uninstall, but I used the Brandon technique.

3. Having a paint shop paint the bolts on methods = bad idea. 1 pressure wash and they are silver again.



4. Cheap brake fluid removes paint, better than paint thinner!!! (i might have cropped out me making an inappropriate gesture towards a favorite TMX Engineer)



5. Real girls use dishwashers to clean truck parts

Brake fluid, expensive or cheap removes paint like you'd never believe.

Apparently they use dishwashers to wash other things as well. I found out today.

Skid plate looks awesome! Now if we can just get that video commentary from TRR of you changing your own tires.

I had a buddy sandblast the method bolts then hit them with etch primer, Krylon rattlecan red then clearcoat. They have been holding up pretty well so far. It's been about a year.
