Did you get your backup camera to work?

I didn't hook it up since I don't bother to use the built in backup camera in the 200, but I did study the wire diagram. Did you run the pink (+) from the radio to the camera along with the video feed? I think Atoto likes to power the camera from the radio and has a special harness with their camera kit to make it work. This allows you to activate the camera when no in reverse if you want.

Replaced driver’s door handle and passenger’s mirror. Both were broken on account of trail incidents…trees mostly

Replacing the door handle there are three 10mm bolts. Last one is accessible through a hole in the backside door with a clear weatherproofing sticker over it. With the handle pulled out the bolt is accessible.

For the mirror, door card etc is removed. Pretty straight forward replacement

We’re you able to get color matched?

WK sliders w diamond rear top plates. Easy peasy since AHC version only has 2 u bolts.

 

[Trapper50cal]

Those look fabulous, especially on a white truck.

I'd be tempted to hit those bolt tops with a Sharpie, but that's just me.

@LowDrag82 the sliders are not angled up, right? Also, can the top plates be added later on if desired?

The top plates attach via welded on tabs, I'm guessing it's a package deal.

I went for the flat ones, the angled ones always seemed to me like someone had flat ones that got bent upwards by accident haha.

Yeah I like the look a lot. Next upgrade is ARB rear drawers but it’s tax time so probably not until the summer (I’m self employed).

Replacing front right cv axle this weekend. Its daunting for newbie mechanic... Pls see call for help below.

Not sure but i presume its the first time these in my vehicle's life that these have been done. The lift from ironman install made both sides of the cv axle boots burst -- strangely that is in spite of the front diff drop.

Everything was going great uninstalling and removing old axle. But made a misstep by first seating the diff side of the new cv axle - and now i cant the spindle on the wheel side of the axle. Also cant get the new diff out anymore to reverse my misstep. So want to take the spindle / steering knuckle off the lower ball joint but it wont pop. The cotter bin is out, castle nut a few turns loosened. Any tips please??? need to get her back on road tomorrow

PS: i have tried popping the lower bj with a pitman puller but its not budging.

Replaced the broken third brake light. It is time to print one to hold blinding red LED pods!

Big hammer on the flat part of the spindle by the lower ball joint. You may need to remove the rotor shield. Recommend threading the nut on to LBJ to protect the treads.

Lower the jack under the lower control arm further. Unbolt the lower shock mount if needed.
