I'll have to try that next time. I've been using Mothers for years now, but I don't particularly care for it all that much. It works, but it takes a lot of polishing to get the wheels clean.

So does the eagle one stuff, I have both and the mothers does great. Get the meguirs buffing cone, attaches to a drill, makes it a lot easier and faster. If you clean your wheels at least weekly with the correct type of wheel cleaner the shine lasts longer and isn't so hard the next go round

Today I did nothing in the shop but answer phone calls. Next few days are very promising both in clusters and FOBs. HVAC haven't been in demand quite yet, maybe I'm asking too much. What do you guys think is a fair price to redo the background bulbs to LED in one of these? Is 40USd (50$ Cdn ) too much? There's $12 USd ( 15$Cdn ) in LEDs. It takes me well into 2 hours to do one unit. As I get used to it it may take less time but for now that's where I'm at.

I have a powerball, but I've never really loved how it works. Maybe the cone works better?

I adjusted the driver torsion arm since my passenger side sat about a half inch higher.

 

I also armor all most (if not all) of my weatherstripping. I will use dielectric sometimes and other times armor all- they seem to work best by taking turns.

 

I wiped down my tailgate (bedside) after cleaning my weedeater on it.

 

I put graphite all over my key and door locks.

 

Checked the oil level (a hair below full).

 

Torqued all of my wheels. I had initially torqued them a year or two ago with a torque wrench, but was low of the called for 150 ft-lbs because of antiseize. But I gave each a good tug and while I had the center caps off I wiped the hubs/wheel bearing area with some grease.

 

Took out my subwoofer and left it out when I was getting the factory jack from behind the passenger seat.

 

Put a few drops of 3-in-1 on the passenger seat rails/rivets/bearings behind the seat.

 

Wiped my clutch pushrod area from when I applied it yesterday as I am try to smooth it out and reduce the noise. Just trying to 'work it in' since there was already plenty on there.

 

Hit my parking brake cables with penetrant on the exterior and lube in the interior.

If that's the price, I'll send you mine

Got freaked out. Wife got home from work. My truck was in the street she calls me over and says your truck is all scratched up. Oh its on. I then look and a spider had made a web that looked like a long scratch on my front fender. Heart returned from my feet and all is good.

We recently bought a travel trailer and have been getting it ready for its maiden voyage. Yesterday I put the camping box in the bed of the truck and cut some chain to length to be able to lock the box in the bed of the truck. Nothing too exciting, but that's it. LOL

What colour would you like lol

I want a cool white. Same for all the other light up pieces in my interior. Weather is too unpredictable right now to rip it out and send it

I can't remember how long it took when I did SG Lou's

 

But not much more than a week before he had it back.

Just write on declaration "Return for warranty repair" and it zips right through. He sent it via USPS and I received it 3 days later, repaired and shipped it out that same morning and he received 4 days later.

I would have figured the LMM would do better not having the shitty DEF, only the DPF.


The 2013 looks like my 2012, only mine is a long bed.
