What did you do to your Ranger today?

These will offer a lot of protection to the LCAs. I hit mine all the time. These are good to keep them protected. And they're cheap, relatively speaking.

I've broken LCAs before. These would've helped. Less than $200 is cheap insurance for a new $4500 suspension setup.

I'm assuming they articulate with the movement of the LCA (?)

correct, they bolt to the LCA using the shock bolt and two other bolts. They move completely with the LCAs.

Going on the new "parts pile"...

Not as cool as others, but I saved a good chunk of change swapping the engine air filter myself.

side note: the lid is always so finicky/tight to get back on. Like it’s smashing the front of the filter trying to get the front tabs into the slots.

Not today but the other day…

After unboxing my Wolfbox G900 Tripro mirror dashcam, I was eager to see how things worked.

Before getting into the full installation, I connected everything to the mirror camera, including power, to test that it all worked.

You can mount the G900 directly to your existing rearview mirror and you can use a 12v plug-in for power. That made it possible to check it out without having to start ripping my truck apart. That happened the next day.

The dry fitting kinda went like this….



So far, this has been a lot of fun. I’ll post my hard-wired installation when I get my truck put back together.

How were the donuts ?
There's an amazing place nearby.

The Wolfbox install videos are awesome. I need to download the videos I made earlier this evening. I was testing out my lights off-road w/wo the amber lens covers. I want to see how clear the video is at night.

Thanks Tim, the videos are fun to make and hopefully, folks will find them helpful. As you know, there are questions that arise during the process. I‘m hoping my full installation thread covers everything. More fun planned today.

With the video quality of the Wolfbox, footage of your lIghts should be great.

Timbits have got nuthin’ on those babies - they look amazing! Mrs. DukeCanBuildit is going to have fits when she sees what I do with the waffle maker.

Made some repairs replaced my rapidly crumbling window strips with some new ones which turned up in the mail last week. Fairly easy job all you need is a torx screwdriver or ratchet, and I found a plastic trim tool to be helpful on a couple that didn't want to budge initially. Before and after shown.

Nice video Duke. Your truck looks good.

Thanks Steve - hopefully, it still does when I’m done.

Connected a few wires wrong, Eh?

I've got faith in you Duke. Now about those broken clips.

I’m prepared…

Those white ones are in our door sills but you have to remove a molded-in-place rubber washer and install in on the new pin. Ask me how I know…

Juiced it up with 93 and staged it in the carport in case I have to go to Maryland for a load of frozen rats Thursday. She’s all nice and clean and shiny. After all, can’t haul frozen rats in a dirty truck………

Tell us which restaurant you're delivering these to so we can avoid going there.
