Good call. The dash pieces are definitely the ones you’d want to be OEM. The black chrome trim makes them look a lot nicer than just the simple overlays. 👍👍
Cleaned up my aux wiring real quick. Not a bad little $10 project. Whatever else I add will be much simpler to wire up now. Maybe some rock lights would be fun.
Yeah, it’s a pretty straight shot. I pre-ran the wire through the RamBar while it was on the ground. So I just had to feed the wiring pigtail down the stake pocket hole as I was mounting the bar. If you use the Mopar lights they come with long harnesses that will get you nearly all the way to...
Did some simple, no BS jerky. Top round sliced 1/4”. Garlic salt and cracked black pepper. Cured overnight in the fridge and then smoked & dehydrated around 6 hours. We usually do marinades and all that but this was really good, and super easy.
Cubby is just really shallow. I dunno what I could put in there. On the other hand, CD storage is no problem. I was a cool guy with the thing that went on the sun visor and held like 10 of them.
Yeah, I bit the bullet and ripped my whole collection onto a flash drive I keep in the truck. Mainly wanted the CD player because the cubby is useless and it would be cool to add another ”option”.
World Parts has been good for me in the past. I used Bam for the RamBar last week and they shipped it in a couple days. Hit or miss on a lot of these parts unfortunately.
Nope, not a chance. But at least there’s a touchless wash in the next town over that has 8 feet of clearance. That was one of my big hold ups on this project. Wanted to make sure I could get the salt off in the winter.
Still working on a badge for the other side of the tailgate. The supercharged script didn’t work out for me. But today was RamBar and lights day. Hotter than hell in the sun but managed to get it all squared away single handed.
The TRX emblem fix was easy. Then I took the 4x4 emblem off because it looked stupid.
I’ve been trying a few different emblems in the blank spot. Landed on the Hellcat “supercharged” script for now. Wish it were bigger though.
I’ve been back and forth on this for months. I do like the look and it’ll cover up my tailgate cap that’s all beat to hell. You might have just pushed me over the edge. 👍
Neighbor has a newer Explorer ST. They definitely move. And it would hysterical to tune one up to the max and just smoke everything. Unfortunately I’m not a Ford guy at all. Last and only one I owned was a Probe back in the day. Talk about a piece of shit.
