Hey Tex I was just reading your build thread. Did you end up keeping those sliders on? I saw some pics that don't appear to have them. If so, have you had any issues with them camming up on impact, or having stumps, branches or even rocks getting snagged up in the holes?

Hi Tex. I'm curious about your comments about KDSS, since the 4wheeler GX had KDSS. They managed to get skids and armor on that one so I wonder how they did it? I went out looking specifically for ones with KDSS because of the articles and some of the comments praising it on toyota120. I'm a...

I sold my beloved Disco 2 last September back in Vancouver before moving to Cali. It was probably the most heavily modded truck that I personally ever saw. I loved it to death. Put a new motor in it at a cost of $11,000 only 50k km's before selling it. I was going to build another one with a...

Ummmm.... Now you lost me. :snorkel:

Is the 12v input on this diagram for running to power only when the ignition is on? Mine is set to run the lights even if the truck is off and I like it that way so do I just omit that? It looks like each light draws 9 amps so I'd just be squeaking under the wire with 27 amps for three lights.

That sounds good if it will work the same with lightforce. Have to check the amp ratings. Makes sense though. These three lights all operate on the same switch right now, and always will. I have other switches for the rest. This helps a lot. Thanks.

I had the wiring done for me originally, and for whatever reason, they have a relay for each light. These are the Lightforce XGT lights, so I think they take a lot of power to fire up, then the voltage drops to run them. Maybe that's why they need individual relays?? I'm not much an...

I'm just about to order a Blue Sea Fuse Block and am just wondering how many connection points I really need. My Lightforce Lights currently are wired direct to the battery and each light has its own relay and inline fuse, but all are connected to the master on off switch on the dash. When I...

I really wasn't expecting any as I haven't heard of any before. That's the point of the thread. I have been encouraged to look at a Toyota conversion but I think upgrading from TT's to ARBs and adding Ashcroft axles and CVs will be just as good. I have 285 SSR's now (34" tires) and doubt I'll...

OK. I've had a roof tent since 2003. I've struggled with mounting options that would allow me to deploy the tent without dropping my boat or motorcycle/ATV trailer (meaning no rear mounting) and make the best use of my Technitop awning and shower stall/ice fishing shack. Mounting from the...

If I didn't already spend the money on 4.11's, this would be easier to justify. I suppose I could sell the rover diffs with 4.11's and TTs easy enough. The rear is only one year old with very little miles. Don't get me wrong, I was about with like 12 guys the other day. We met up with a bunch...

Right now, all of my accessories like lights, CB, etc are run direct to the batteries with inline fuses on the power wires. If I ran the fuse block, where would I run the negatives to? One of the reasons for adding the fuse block, would be to clean up all the connections. Also, what size of...

LOVE this $10 Bottle Opener mod.... http://www.equipt1.com/h/component/page,shop.product_details/flypage,shop.flypage/product_id,347/category_id,159/option,com_virtuemart/Itemid,31/

I took another look and I see now he has trimmed quite a bit off the sliders in the front. I'm assuming at the rear also. I'd like to see some pics of the trim job if any are around. I'd also like to hear more about the wheels and backspacing if you have any more info on that.

Ok. That looks FANTASTIC. I'm excited now. I really like the way you mounted the light. Next I want to see how you mounted your shotgun. :) Yes please on the wiring pics. I'll be adding a snorkel this spring but will likely be running some wires out the rear on one side and through the...

The guy with the truck on the left would rub on the sliders FOR SURE. He's got less room there than I have and you can tell that if he tucks he'll rub trimming and flares or no. I like the look of Justin's truck. Hard to see the sliders but I thought he was running RTE. It would be nice to...

Wow. I really like that. Mine's the same color. :)

There used to be one that had markings on it that helped in picking your line. Has anyone seen those around lately? I'd like to get one of those if they're accurate.

Anyone here who's upgraded to Ashcroft HD axles/CVs broken one? If so, what were the circumstances and what lockers were you running? Thanks!

Holy cow..... :snorkel: I've heard about the Toy conversion for some time. I don't think it's available yet is it?? I know some people have fabbed them up on their own, but a drop in kit is not a reality yet is it?? I have 4.11's now... At first read I was thinking that I could save the...
