i yanked my s-10 emblem off the tail last night w/ a hairdryer and some fishing line, it took about 10 minutes to get it off and then i used some stuff from autozone called sticker shocker(aerosol) it worked pretty well i had my fiance hold the hairdryer while i kinda just slid through the adhesive,...

smokinjoe

thats why i try to keep mine somewhere as opposed to be being in the middle of nowhere

smokinjoe

what type of decals are you looking to put on?

smokinjoe

ive thught abput but i,ve got a spare, i dont really need much else, if it comes down too ill park it or just load the spare up untill i can get itt to a shop, i refuse to drive farhter than neccassary on a donut

smokinjoe

smokinjoe

smokinjoe

well lets see if this workd these are pics of the access rollup cover

looong addy , linked-HJ

smokinjoe

does the truxedo lock, after i put the tailgate lock in the only way to get in is to slice open the tonneau cover not that that would be too difficult, it.s just vinyl.

but mines fairly secure now, still not quite watertight but im working on it

smokinjoe

i see alot of trucks w/ rails, i think they still look good and if anyone says anything just tell them your going retro

plus the ones on ZR5's look better because of the suppurts they have at the corners of the rails, at least in my opinion

smokinjoe

we should all go in there and start talking about bagging and slamming our crews and puttin on 24 inch spinners, with da switches

smokinjoe

if it comes down to name calling on the internet i dont think im adult enough to be using it, unless were making fun of fords

smokinjoe

good stuff

smokinjoe

thats it i'm dumping that feces out of my truck soon!

smokinjoe

thats all i needed to know

now i need to talk the soon to be wife into it, and letting me drop about another 2k into it

shes jealous of the truck

, i keep telling her i love both of them the same amount... just different

smokinjoe

okay if were talking major injuries for a lift i may have to reconsider this

smokinjoe

groovy

ill give it shot this weekend hopefully, cameras is hooked up to the wifes computer so itll be a few days

smokinjoe

good stuff, let me see if i got this straight, if you get wider rims youd need rims with less backspacing so the inside of the tire doesnt rub... correct... yes...no i dont really want to buy new rims i just want bigger tires.... like i said i just need 30x9.5 to fit on on my 15x7 rim which should w...

smokinjoe

not that i'm endosrsing this but i knew "someone" that did emssions testing and if you were "good" friends with this "person" you would be hooked up for your decal

depending on where you live and who you know and all that

smokinjoe

well it might be non of my business but they dont make hard cover to go on the Zr5's or anything with rail,they will have to cone off, i made a comprise i went with the access rollup cover it lays flat not bowed up in the middle like most others and fits with the rails on, i've got an 03 ZR5 and its...

smokinjoe

another less than intelligent ? from me

what do you mean by backspacing?

smokinjoe

such a tough choice, why cant these decesions be easier like trying to decide what shoe goes on what foot :x and just to let people know i got my access rollup cover yesterday,put it on in about 20 minutes it was easy and boy does it look goooood on there especially since it's flat, not bowed up lik...

smokinjoe

thats what i love about this place when i order mine i had no clue that something like lug nut size would be an issue.you im so glad i read the posts here or else i would of had no clue and been in the same boat alot of other people are, by the hawke how much were your spacers shipped and all and wh...

smokinjoe

what about highway driving and noise and snow traction those will be my main concern,i want a tire that thats good on the road and great in places where there isnt a road to be seen

smokinjoe

well thats saving 60 bucks total,if the bfg's are good tires like everyone says thats good enough for me

smokinjoe

well the title is pretty clear on my ? and i was also wandering if anyone one was running bridgestone dueler a/t revo's i looked at tirerack and they got great reveiws but you guys know how that kinda stuff goes but i was wondering if there was some good first hand experience around here but i dropp...

smokinjoe

same way i found mine amazing what kinda a little stuff you can learn by reading that thing

smokinjoe

i also have a couple ?'s before i get the lift, how do you lift the hitch and and towhooks,and what size spacers does anyone recommend for giving the truck a slightly wider look but i don;t my truck to look like i've got axle xtensions to be cool or anything,and one last ? what is good brand tire fo...

smokinjoe

try to convince her to buy me a supercharger

smokinjoe

i hate to sound stupid(its better to have people think your stupid than open your mouth and prove it)but what does SFA stand for?

smokinjoe

do you have a lift?

smokinjoe

and with all this including tires and all i'll have about an extra 3 1/2 to 4 inches on the body, because thats all i really need, i dont do much off roading but i'd like to be able to use the step bars that came on my truck

smokinjoe

groovy, thanks, how hard is it to do all this stuff, like the 2" BL and T-bar crank, and whats a good brand tire for some 30's, i was looking at some yokohama's i'm not really into off roading that much i only do it when i really need to. and will 30X 9.5 R15 fit on my ZR5 15X7 inch rims?

smokinjoe

ok I dont know much about lifts, as a matter of fact this is the first time i've ever put serious thought into doing it, but if wanted about 3 or 4 inches of body lift id need about a 2 inch BL kit,rear shackles, and crank up the torsion bar, right? that would also let me throw on some 30's, right? ...
