Morning all! Need some assistance making sure i am troubleshooting properly.
2019 XLT 302A I just swapped in the Morimoto XB headlights last night. What a chore, but I only broke two tabs on the grille! Ran the DRL harness to fuse #19 and kept the sequential signals, and have DRL off on the...
These are fairly good - a lot of manufs relabel this exact towel. The Costco towels USED to be the best choice for quality/cost, but last year i went to pick up some more and they are THIN and just not worth it.
Detailing is my side hustle. I use Rag company and Detailed Image (DI) towels...
I got them out with my extendable magnet like stated. Only took 2 tries lol
What made this even better was I had the truck running with the remote start. It's an XLT so i needed that key! The wife says she'd have paid to get a pic of my face when they slid off!
We had a great laugh about it...
Well they were!
I sat my keys on the tonneau cover to lift my older dog into the rear seat, and my truck ate my keys!
They slid in-between the cab and bed, as my driveway is an 11* slope, and landed on that little plate. Thank goodness I had a long enough magnetic pick up tool, or I'd have a...
Nice! Really dig the magnetic on magnetic (not just because i have that too) monochrome look. ?
I'm thinking of putting on the same Coopers when these Hankooks wear down, so I'm interested in your ride quality/traction/mpg changes.
Any time you apply a wax/sealant you want to tape off items that it should not be applied to. Been a side hustle detailer for many years and it is VERY common to see overspray/coverage from customers. If you use a spray wax, spray it onto the microfiber towel facing away from the truck, not onto...
Same dealer. Only two dealer choices local to me, this one being 20 mins out and the other an hour out. Luckily the techs that are swapping the struts are not the same as the techs that change the oil. The "fast lane" guys, not being mean, are not the same level as the "shop work" guys in this...
LOL right?! I really wonder how long it has been like this and I just kept rolling on the "soft" FX4 suspension!!!
Dealer was real timid on installing anything other than stock parts for warranty work. They were able to get me in Wednesday morning, so I'll ride on the stockers a bit longer...
Got under the truck to install the DD SS3 fogs, which were not too bad, and noticed what looked like oil seepage on my lower control arm. I did just get the oil changed and parked the truck, haven't gone anywhere, and there was a spot on the garage from that little drain pain around the filter...
If you WANTED to use Lariat mode, yes, forscan is the only option.
U79 is saying with an XL/XLT truck, you can turn off the onboard DRL in the dash settings - thus no more dimmed low beam. If the AlphaRex "DRL" harness is used, then the lights will function like normal, using the Alpha DRL when...
Okay, some information to add. After asking Morimoto's customer service about the installation/wiring and how the DRLs would work, I have a better understanding. They provided a link to a youtube video that has some great info - link is HERE.
The headlamps themselves are plug and play. You can...
Yep, Signature series here. They also recommended Raggtopp to me, which I have used before and had on hand thanks to my OCD in detailing and my Mom's Convertible Beetle. It honestly was a decent product on the VW, but I applied religiously with her car's every two week wash down. I was not...
That would be a major bummer!
I've had mine on (and off) for almost 2 years now, and love it. It really does have a more durable, yet luxury, look to it. I'm starting to get some wear at the folds, but nothing tearing/degrading yet.
I do recommend some waterproofing. Mine wouldn't bead...
Looks like the website has lost it's dang mind...
As much as i want these, and I dislike the AlphaRex - I'm really having second thoughts. These Morimotos have much cleaner lines and, to me, blend to the truck better.
Making your customers wait this long, and tossing on a premium price tag...
Not sure if our trucks have them, but I had the exact issue on two of my Jeeps ('01 and '06). The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) had a dead spot, and the ECU just didn't know what to do.
Apparently the release date has been pushed back AGAIN. I was told by customer service that a June-July launch (see above) was planned, but I just emailed Monday and the response was just "3rd quarter."
The next update to the truck will probably be out before these will be released. It has...
I was wondering that too...
All vehicles do this. Even my first sh!tbox XJ i lifted on F150 coils nose dived when a deer ran out, and that thing rode like a BRICK!
The FX4 Ranger is more noticeable with the softer suspension. You'll need to upgrade the front to handle the sudden weight...
