Hauled this back to my grandparents

Today I pulled off the passenger side door panel and switches and removed the door lock actuator and locking assembly. Can;t wait untill the new part comes in tomorrow and put it on.

Bald tires do better in sand I've learned than mud tires that's for sure.

 

 

That's because mud tires dig, bald ones allow you to float on top of the sand.

Why are they terrible? I have a black DeeZee i got from TSC

 

this morning i used my truck to jumpstatrt my little brothers 91 4runner so it can go to the shop

I bought a 135$ rolling one its got 5 drawers and an open area in bottom, its the flimsiest thing I've ever seen and one of the drawers is a half inch less wide that the one its supposed to be identical to. I guess you get what you pay for..

 

 

Getting my tires put on right now, not sure why its taking so long..

Craftsman is hit or miss I found. Before I took this job it worked in the shop at a dealership and I started working out of a couple Craftsman boxes- one 5-drawer workstation sort of thing and a smaller chest on top of that. The small chest was fairly decent but the big one couldn't take weight at all. When drawers were closed the big one that had my air tools would always fall off it's tracks and jam crap up. I ended up buying a big Matco box which of course is loads nicer but it also cost a pile of money and now it just sits in my brothers barn back in NH.

thats exactly what I have and its doing exactly what you said... someday when i get my own place ill have a nice one, this is the one I have.

Yeah mine was similar I think- the bottom on mine would be 2 drawers where the big space is on that and my top might have been a tiny bit taller/more drawers. No closeups but here's a pic from my past life:

Not today but on Thursday night, pulled the buggy in and then pulled the hay out so we could unload the buggy.:jester:0292.jpg0203.jpg

Hauled the new baby (first ride was at 12:30am not pictured) shopping this morning

Tried to install my double din screen but failed.

Went to the hot rod tour car show today great turnout, and someone stole part of my duneflag

Well the sun finally reappeared this weekend so we had a garage sale so the truck got to load up the table and stuff we were selling. Then cleaned up the house and is full of trash and recycling to be taken recycling center after work today. Also this week going to start moving packed up boxes to a storage unit until we move into our new house (once we find our new house.) Finally, I need to finish mowing the lawn and return the borrowed lawn tractor I have so it's going to be a busy week for the truck.

Finished the double din install and put my dash back together

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
