They've got some Ti bolts that look like they would also work to replace the crusty steel ones in my OEM beauty rings... also sitting in my Cart on their website.
Any feedback on functionality and parking brake lockout? Have seen a few reviews that stated issues with functionality being limited unless the parking brake is on. Google has shown mixed reviews with the bypass options. I really want to upgrade my audio but want to get all the details worked...
I did a retrofit of the OEM HIDs and mine started to flicker shortly before they cut out completely. I think it was the Morimoto electronics that were the culprit.
If I was going through the effort to paint, I would want something that wasn't available (or similar) to something from the factory. I would do one of the following:
- British Racing Green
- Lamborghini Verde Mantis (bright green)
- Porsche Chalk
- Nardo Grey
- Lamborghini Giallo Midas (triple...
Not a Toyota fanboy but I had a FJ Cruiser for 11 yrs that got wheeled relatively hard and had no issues and always like the Tacoma but found it highly overpriced. I actually like the looks of the new Tundra and Sequoia and was considering a Sequoia as a replacement for wifey's Volvo. I read a...
2012s did not come with HIDs from Ford but you can retrofit the HIDs that came on the 2013s and 2014s with a harness from The Retrofit Source:
F-150 OEM HID CONVERSION (2009-2014)
I'm planning on trying Continental TerrainContact AT or Nokian Outpost AT next time. The Nokians are fairly light at 57lbs. I've had great luck with both brands.
I second the billet oil pump gears. I think the traction bar issue can be mitigated with a sympathetic right foot but... that's not as much fun. The shop that I had mine installed at said they've seen no issues with the Whipples they've installed. Good luck!
I think I used the stock hardware and locations for the rear flaps and had to drill a single hole and use a machine screw on either side of the front. Rokblockz mount theirs with OEM hardware. You might find an installation video of those and could use the same method for the Rally Armors...
Got these put on the truck on Friday. Crappy pic but I really like how they look on the truck. Volk bronze centres and Kingsport Grey on the beauty rings (I tried to match the colour of the fender flares). Note - that was not my park job, the shop tech did that!
Thanks! I'm trying to do something a little different with these. Found some titanium bolts in the right size but they are something like $17/piece... too much $$$. Trying to find some anodized aluminum bolts but have so far come up blank. Found some motorsports spec stainless bolts that...
2012 truck that I just Whipple'd (Stage 1) in April with about 30,000 miles on the truck. I don't daily my truck and have only put ~600 miles on it so far. Average MPG has dropped from ~15 MPG to 14.7 MPG. I'm at 3500ft ASL elevation.
Couple of things to check WRT the surging, could be running lean due to:
Fuel pressure (regulated by the fuel pump and regulator or a clogged filter),
Restricted fuel injectors,
A vacuum leak,
Anything else that throws off the fuel mixture going in to the engine.
I recently put on a Whipple Stage 1, probably have around 600 miles on it now too. I haven't noticed any surging like you described and I don't think I have any new clanks since the SC went on. I get a hard 2-3 shift when it's cold and have had a couple hardish downshifts but nothing that...
Got my Gen 1 beadlocks refinished and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. I want to replace the beauty ring hardware, the stock ones are a little beat up... does anyone know the thread pitch or specs of the beauty ring hardware? EDIT: Looks like they are M10-1.5
