Well it took me about two weeks to read through this whole section. I got lots of good ideas for mods to my own truck. Today I installed an Elite Engineering catch can kit and Airaid MIT. I plan on changing the hose between the valve covers to braided hose so it matches the rest and adding AN type hose clamps. 29dff3e29ae8c542dc5bc1ea47894b20.jpgc63792a9079640603d6a26932885e390.jpga2b2852e6b0ef26d156ad7531c64bd71.jpg

Added a Gero gun magnet and got a new DA polisher that I used on my truck today. Used 3D Speed polish and it came out great.

It's not what I have done but it's what I will be doing. If all goes well this weekend my truck will be completely finished and ready for Line-X either next week or next! Getting really excited to see the results.

Of course! Lots of sand paper will be used this weekend. Going to have to sand down the whole truck including the bed, removing the bumpers, headlights, grille, mirrors and window trim. Then it'll be ready to be dropped off. My local guys told me it'd be about a week before it was finished if I dropped it off Monday.

Nice! Did you do the install yourself?

Thanks, I did not, first time bringing the truck into a shop but I realized pros were going to do a better job with fitting the fiberglass than I could.. and they definitely did! XTC Motorsports out of Gilbert, AZ

Damn was hoping you some pointers. I have a set of Fiberwerx 3" waiting to be installed. Can you take some pictures of your wheel wells. I'm curious on how they covered everything back up.

Sorry about that, I'll call the guys and ask if they could give me a couple tips/ tricks. Also, talk to Velocyraptor (spelling?) on here as he's installed the Fiberwerx fenders himself if I remember correctly.

 

I'll send you some photos later today.

Thanks man I'll look up the other user too. Also noticed your truck is the official pictures on McNeils site.

Ok please forgive my ignorance here but are you line-xing the whole truck. Not to be offensive but why? I've seen it on older trucks but not newer ones. Not bashing you by any means just questioning here.

    • It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
