Did you see the functional ram air hood for sale on the TB fan club FB page, $450 and its already painted black.


How does removing the washer tank provide better air flow? Did you do the FWI?

Shared it to your FB page. Not sure how to get links off of the FB app.

FWI = Fender Well Intake.

Oh I haven't been on Facebook in like a year and a half, don't use it and I don't even know the login and can't login because that account isn't registered with my new number

Nah its not a FWI, I don't think I'd go that route now because I feel it'd suck up a lot of water. If I lived in a more arid place possibly, but its too rainy around here

Strange. Then someone hacked your account and friend requested me a few months back.

I agree. FWIs are the worst idea for a DD. That hood for sale loks like the same one a member here has. Here is a pic of the one for sale.

It was probably me, it just seems like it was longer than a few months back that used it, lol it'd be a one in a million shot someone random would friend you as me that didn't know you.

Yeah I'm familiar with that hood. I dunno about that one, I'm on the fence about that one. Next would just be an induction hood if I didn't get a ram air one.

So my friends dad says to me the other day: "You know? When I was following you the other day I said to myself "I wonder when he is going to put led's in his tail lights." Now if I'm not mistaken those have the circuit boards that it never made sense to me why they were there. And I'd imagine most of the screws are stuck in the housing correct?"

Me: Well actually, I just don't want to deal with the load resistors yet. But it is next on the list. (Screws are in fact stuck in the housing by the way.)

Gonna start shopping around this week...

Easy fix. Break/drill screw heads off. Use new screws on new housings. Since I got total LED housings (Came with the load resistors too) not just LED bulb retrofit that worked out great for me :biggrin:

My housings are pretty new, look perfect so I'd rather go the bulb retrofit route. And I like the look too.

Edit: might be able to get them off with a vice grip...

Rears are ck and fronts are regular correct? And 6 ohm 50 watt if I only want 2 load resistors? Mod bug bit today.

Correct on the CK bulbs. And if you only want 2 load resistors to remove hyper flash for fronts and back then it's 3ohm 50watt.

Fronts on 02 were CK I found out. Not sure about other years.

I thought all the rears were CK.

Matt has an '02 and his fronts were CK as well. Just a fluke year/first year introduction of the vehicle

My fronts are regular for certain. I checked. (Pats self on back) 3 ohm 50 watt load resistor and I believe all the rears are ck... I just watched may's video and his probing confirms both are ck.

Edit: and I thought there were issues with backfeeding using the different flasher module.

Edit2: turn signal seems to be non ck under further investigation... opposite ground not in line.

I'm going to play with my lights...

Edit, the directional socket (middle one?) Can be considered either way!

I think I'm gonna convert my rear turns to 3157, there's like no options for 3157CK red LEDs

You have what appears to be either or, since only the high is used for the directional socket. Are we talking a bout the stop lamp? Lol then disrguard everything.

If you're brave you can rewire a 3157 bulb to be ck. Just have to take the base off and move the wires to the correct locations. Or even easier, just flip one wire on each side from one side to the other, yeah that'd be a lot easier.

Yes if you want to pay the price for them. I wouldn't, they're $20-30 a pair iirc.
But 12 year warranty yo. [emoji6]

I'm lost now. Top socket = brake and running light. Middle = directional only right? If so according to my board either bulb type should work... but I've been wrong so many times with the electrical system on this truck that I should just quit now lol.

Top and middle function as brake lights together, top is on with headlights, middle is brake and turn

You still looking for cloth SS seats, front and rear? A guy just posted on FB selling his SS seats for $300. He is down in Jupiter, Florida. Hell of a price, but not sure how far the drive would be for you.

Thanks for the heads-up, you're rather great at that brother [emoji14]
But I am only interested in the leather SS seats, if it was leather I'd drive to pick em up at that price. Damn such a good price lol
