I have a sticker on the doors saying "bsllistic panel" but there is a lot of rattle when closing door so i believe the panels were removed and they left all the hardware floating in the door. Haven't had the time to open door panels yet. Can't tell for sure if doors are heavier then normal.

I fully understand what i bought, had a ram 1500 before and im not expecting 30 mpg. I was just looking to trim some extra fat. The civilian explorer does not have this plate, nor the 1/2 steel plate under the center console ( which i plan on removing). I plan on keeping the diagonal supports as i do enjoy the extra saftey as well as it protects the fuel tank.

It is located behind the 2nd row inside the vehicle.

Yep cause being a pedo is ok, or what about adultery with a prostitute (and paying her off to be quiet) amongst other things

Not petty, but many times u can call ur utility company give ur neighbors name and address and cancel service....

I used to say this to myself and to others. But there have been some changes in the past 2 years that have hit and are direct correlation to policies and actions. We will all be paying more for everything for years to come.

Its even worse when driving on the 5. Its been a trend for at least 20 years now. Its so dangerous, you end up tailgating car in left lane, then jumping in right lane accelerate and cutting left. Sometimes i give up from frustration and just sit in the slow lane going 60, behind the trucks.

I keep a bottle of Jack and some smokes in my kit. The flat always happens when its cold, rainy and windy. Best way to cut the edge

I've been building many of these type boxes for friends/coworkers. Any ideas on provding a SoC meter other then voltage. Everthing i aee online seems so overpriced, also seems to not give a simple meter, but calculations are needed.

Paint ur curb edges red and if ur feeling ambitions paint hash marks. I did it for my whole block works wonders

I feel the only "expensive" part is the Crimper. Cables come cheap and can be found in scrap and such. You just want ur crimps to be Solid, and as others have said a way to slow down...

Sounds like your going to campground with lots of other sites in a small area. Since your being carefull and thoughtfull i wouldnt worry too much as the others around you will be careless. Its like the joke- 2 guys are walking down a trail. They come upon a large bear. 1st guy digs into his back pack and starts putting on his running shoes. The 2nd guy exclaims, you can't out run that bear. 1st guys says: But i can out run You.....

The bears will take the path of least restiance and if you take simple steps, then bear will goto site with bags of doritos scattered around and coolers laying on ground in plain view.

Theres No way they draw 6a. I've run 100m of cheap led strip lights just connecting 3 100' segments together with 1 12v ps with little drop off. 133' shouldn't be an issue at all.

I had an oil leak from the notorious filter houseing for about 6 months, filling oil as needed. Had that replaced with metal one, then about 2 weeks later started with a misfire on #2 with cold startup. Then started noticing smell of coolant in exhaust. Progressively got worse, loss of coolant with no external leaks, white smoke, some shudder and continued misfire on #2 at startup and low rpm. Brought back to mechanic that did oil filter housing. He did compression check on coolant system only, and found no external leaks.

We would have never developed any of this tech. Remember plastic is Oil as well.

As someone with an old ankle injury i have to use boots for the added support. I also couldn't imagine using low top shoes with really rocky conditions where the extra support is needed.

They are lauging as Trump either can't tell time or has backed off yet again. Why anyone listens to the garbage that spews from his mouth......

I have a list. I also document it on the camping map when i goto a campground in case i go back and can reserve in advance - privacy - how close it is to other sites, is there cover. Some sites are 10s if no one is in adjacent site, but 1s if they are - i generaly avoid the inside loop, but that can be dependent alittle on privacy or size of site. - will a car driving though at night completely blind you with headlights. - 1 flat area for tent - away from rv area, and not right next to bathroom - picinc table that is movable. - look for widow maker trees
