    I get to hack up my center console panel soon since I have to move my SG3 over and install the 6 switch panel.

    @Bergy24 - these are the ones I purchased: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CGCWY72?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

    Edit: I see 1lowlife posted above. His pic is what I saw somewhere that made me want to buy them :)

    Edit 2: Info only - you will have to bend the tabs up and/or cut the tabs off of one of the large power wire connectors and the large ground strap connector.

    Do you really need to spend $700 and up on upper control arms?

    These $299 ones look decent enough Id think? I mean Im not trying to go rock climbing.....

    Buy once, cry once. That being said, RC does make better stuff these days - I just don't know anyone who has experience with these uppers. Then again, I don't know anyone who has Fabtech uppers but I love mine.

    What did I do today? Walk past my 21 and think how lucky I am to have what is arguably the most reliable 1/2 truck ever made.

    That mic cord would drive me crazy! Especially when it swings around when you're offroad.

    Nothing major at all, but I threw in a roof weather strip that disappeared one day without notice...sure looks fancy and new compared to the original on the other side! I'm letting some adhesive cure before I remove the tape...

    Used the factory bumper bolts to mount to like I had before. These have much more cut off compared to the ss3 pros. Also removed the ditch lights.

    You know.. I’ve watched a few documentaries about the consequences of sand on wind turbine blades. Cant imagine what it’d do to the silicon jacket on that wire when you’re bombing around the dunes :boink:

    Sat in it and read through some threads on the 3rd gen side. Saw a bunch of 2nd gen guys roasting them pretty good. The knife is definitely being twisted hard over there

    Then for the first time in quite a while (ever?) I actually thought about what I'd do if my engine died. Tough sledding over there for some of those guys.

    Love it :thumbsup:


    I’ll play. Here’s one I did a few months ago but took a picture of it today. Put my under hood lights on a DT connector. Can be hooked up to the switchpro or m12 battery depending on the situation

    How does a person actually access their fusebox with that much stuff there? Like 45 mins to get into the fusebox to check that fuse...
