10th oil change since I've had the truck. Rear diff fluid for the 2nd time. Didn't get to the front diff and t case in time before the wife and kids informed me that I was done for the day lol. I'll knock those out next, then its time for spark...

Picked up some 37 Krawlers. Plenty of tread. Should fit great under the truck.

I've been using the vpeak and (maybe irrationally) concerned about battery drain so added Tonsiki OBD 2 Cord 16 pin M/F Male to Female Right Angle Diagnostic Extension Cable with Power Switch to avoid battery drain Makes it so I can switch...

Good thread. I use a Veepeak interface with OBD Fusion on my iPad Pro.

Having spent some time messing with an OBD-II smartphone monitor app on several long road trips, I think this topic deserves its own thread. Specifically using OBD Fusion to monitor the plethora of info available on the OBD-II data port of the...

Hit 190k miles today! On pace for 200k by the end of the year. Also working on a 3D printed center console organizer. I have the stock one that you can get when you don’t have the cooler box. But I have a magnetic pistol mount in the bottom that...

Disclaimer...this was two weeks ago ;) Finally pin-striped the ever-living crap out of it (that branch got me good) taking some trails to Louis Lake near South Pass City, WY. Also had some quality time camping in the Badlands on the way out from...

Finally found a fridge. Mt45 for 600 bucks local and I snagged it. It will live in the LC. Super pumped!

A couple have seen it, but I just went to 37s... I hope there's time to make it turn again before COTRockies. 🤦‍♂️

Probably thinking of the lower ball-joint bridge bolts at 221. Same issue with a previous Euro SUV at the dealer, and when I called the service manager to complain he was stupid enough to dismiss the importance of it all. Then again I had to...

You’ll be cutting more than Chad did if you use my body lift. He built his own 3” body lift! But that’s the basic recipe for any big tire in my opinion 😂 With that in mind, Toyo now shows their new RT Pro available in a 40x12.5r17 (most 40’s...

So all i need to buy to run 39/40's is a NST Spec body lift and a saw. Seems easy enough! :hillbilly:

This was an interesting graphic exploring the interwebs. Figure it's a good reference for this thread. And another thread if you want to measure your own modded rig...

@TeCKis300, any chance you're joining in COTRockies this year? (Re)reading up on rolling fenders almost makes it seem like this could be a really fun (and possible) “tech night” we could do during the event! I don’t have a problem buying one, but...

Curious which fender roller Stellar Built used on their Corporate Cruiser 200 build?

probably one with a plasma cutter on the other end

It's pulled pretty aggressively to clear the tires at full bump, but no cracks or kinks in the paint/metal. Heat gun, pay attention to the angle of the roller, and go slow. This is probably like the 10th car I've rolled fenders on. Was much...

Very few can roll fenders cleanly and not make it blatantly obvious and tacky. This is amazing work sir! Looks factory clean! Bravo! 👍🏼 Note: Yellowed headlights affect visibility and that’s a safety issue. Safety first man! #clearlightsmatter

I am really embarrassed and sorry. Almost exactly 2 years ago now, I posted to that thread, not once, but multiple times. My memory and excitement is really wild.

Hopefully this helps the next guy either fitting big tires or those with aggressive offsets. The 200-series has some pretty beefy fender lips so I'll start by saying what's here will buy limited more clearance. Real clearance may require...

Sure. I've rolled the fender a couple of times now. Initially a mild roll to better fit 35x12.5s. Tucking the tabs and lip tighter to the outer fender. The eastwood style knockoff fender roller (tons on Amazon) aren't long enough to reach...
