  1. Anybody else into 1/10 Scale Crawlers?

    Never got into crawlers but these types of threads always peak my interest. Nice to see the details. I do occasionally do some one off projects. This was a 1/5 scale take on the Mazda 787 with functional headlights / taillights, DJI FPV camera in the helmet, and 8S motor. Body was designed...
  2. 7,100 miles on new FX4 and rear axle is done.

    I think you misread my post there. I was saying it makes ME nervous doing mods early on. Apologies if you took that out of context.
  3. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Got the Bushwacker/Ford door sill protectors installed today. Very simple install, and as others have noted ignore the instructions and install the rears first so you can butt up the fronts. I’ll have to add a bit of door sill tape to the rears to cover further back to the rear or the pup...
  4. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Well that’s great news! Not sure if this is a damper side effect. I’m working on the X4S install tonight and walked into the garage and said..”Alexa play country”. I must be getting soft.?
  5. 7,100 miles on new FX4 and rear axle is done.

    Sorry to hear about your dilemma. Always makes me nervous about modding early and loosing the time and effort. But can’t live your life in fear of the unknown. Glad to see your being taken care of. After installing the vinyl dash lettering I’m convinced I’d sue for double the MSRP. I’d...
  6. Tesa Tape

    I'm in the same boat this weekend wiring up ditch lights, front auxiliary lights, and side lights. Lots of custom wire harnesses to be made. Not my favorite task since its tedious and time consuming. But if you do it right the first time it will save you a lot of headaches down the road.
  7. Tesa Tape

    Figured I'd pass along this product for those that are not aware of it. Tesa tape is commonly used in European and higher end American cars. It's a PET cloth based exterior acrylic core adhesive wire loom tape. There are many product numbers for different applications but around the vehicle...
  8. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    I humbly submit my proof of ownership and install. @AzScorpion Is the Man Card revocation permanent or temporary? ?
  9. Tremor is Home/Dog Agrees/Wait for Bronco Continues

    Congrats on the truck. Love dogs and trucks. My priorities with the new truck was, fits in garage, rear seat delete and dog bed, ease of access for said dog to get in the back. Eventually he’ll need a step, but for now it’s a breeze for him to jump right in compared to my old F150 with a 3”...
  10. Rear window glass shattered

    Is this a chip? The rear defroster is essential just a large resistor. My guess the window tint installer cut the heating element during install creating a short. That short may not have manifested until the time it cracked, or took a bit of time to create the failure. The heating elements...
  11. Rear window glass shattered

    Looks like a chip next to the plug where there is a quarter moon burn mark tint may have cut the element creating a short. My plug on the passenger side was installed bent with no play in the cabling. I caught that at purchase and the dealer added to my warranty 96 months 80,000 miles on the...

  13. 18,564.2 miles, and throwing-in the towel

    That was out loud? Didn't mean it...just kidding. Nothing to see here.
  14. 18,564.2 miles, and throwing-in the towel

    I’m installing mine soon. I may drill a hole to disable. I wonder if the damper police would catch on?
  15. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Got a wild hair and decided to wire up one side. tapping into the front marker. Soldered in a connector and retapped. There is an unused two wire connector that attaches to the inner fender wall and is capped. Not DRL or running lights. I’m thinking possibly for an alarm? Far right up top...
  16. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Pretty happy with how these are turning out. Planning on tapping into the front side markers. Need to take out the wheel wells to run wiring and use push pin zip tie mounts. Will probably get to this later this week when other parts arrive so I only need to disassemble things once. amber is...
  17. Defroster cracked my windshield this morning

    I wonder if this is not due to a chip on the surface but on an edge. Vibrations over time create a crack along the silicon, then once beyond that it’s free to spread. Just like in tempered glass aquariums. A chip on the edge can go unnoticed until one day it just cracks unexpectedly. could be...
  18. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Rear seat deletes are covered in multiple places…but. (2) 24x28x1/2 ply (1) roll 2” memory foam (1) leftover velour dog hammock Used the existing bolt locations, memory foam sticks to the ply real well due to friction. result one happy non whining pup.
  19. Project Msfitoy V3.0

    Love the build. Those Coopers look fantastic !
  20. JDowns 2021 Carbonized Grey XLT Tremor

    Housing is printing, got the plates painted. I may have to tint the clear a tad to match perfectly. Depending on the light and angle it’s close. Fun part will be cutting out for the lighting. I thought about a knock off version and replace the M with a V. ? Or replace Tremor with Damped. ?
