I finally gave my truck a much needed bath. Also put in my swing case that arrived today. I had a Truxedo Truck Luggage bag in it before and it was awful. 9 months of holding ratchet straps only and it was so deformed that it wouldnāt even close anymore.
I put the MBRP system on today. Iām very happy with the sound, the fit and the look of it. I only had one very minor issue with the install - the clamp/hanger combo at the front of the muffler was longer than the stock hanger, causing it to barely touch the inside of the frame rail. I trimmed...
The offset is measured from the centerline of the wheel to the mounting surface. If the wheel is 1/2ā wider with the same offset then it would stick out 1/4ā more on the outside and also 1/4ā to the inside.
Ordered a driverās side swing case today. I got an email saying the passenger side I ordered was on back order for 5-7 weeks so I decided Iād rather pay the $20 more and get one right away.
Current hobby is playing around with metal. Iām in the middle of building a wagon for my daughter. Iāve made every piece except the bolts and wheels. Working on the rear hubs now, next is rear axle and handle. Iām really happy with how the tub turned out considering it is my first try!
Finally ordered myself a passenger side swing case today. I was planning on getting one for the driverās side but this one was $20 less for some reason.
The Eibach struts do not come with new nuts for the top. I reused mine as well as the sway bar link nuts and axle nuts. I picked up new outer tie rod end and upper ball joint nuts from Ford. I used a large puller to pop the CV shaft out of the bearing and it worked great!
Finally put my bike rack on for the first time and went for a ride with my wife and daughter, Her Burley trailer fits in the bed with all kinds of space under the cover.
