I'm sure it will get put to the test!

Heres my two -- The one on the left is Pearl -- shes 4 y/o, and the one on the right is Bubba @ maybe 4 months. Hes almost a year now.

Those would look great with a CB antenna on them

If its going between your battery and the truck I wouldn't go with anything smaller than 4ga, if not larger.

Best Buy MIGHT have such a thing, but I wouldn't think it likely. Not many places deal with AC fans, at least when compared to the amount of DC fans out there

I've seen those available on some websites before, will have to see if I can find them. But if you can find an old AT computer PSU you could just use that and a few 80mm 12v fans. Computer fans are a lot cheaper too. Thats if you don't mind the PSU sitting in there I did this to add a fan to a terrarium hood once, worked like a charm.

Nice Martin! I can imagine all that helping though. 15lbs per wheel is a lot less to get rolling in stop-n-go traffic!

It really depends on how they are set up already. The easy way would probably be to hook up a relay to turn the fogs on with the high beams. I did that in my old 94 GMC to keep the low beams on with the hi's. Great 12volt wiring info can be found @ the12volt.com

I would guess some sort of aux air feed of some sort. Maybe for emissions or something? I installed a CAI on my VW (since removed) and it had a tube coming off of the CAI to feed the secondary air pump filtered air. Could be similar.

I'll second that -- even If I didn't know she was a STD riddled sl*t I don't think I could find her attractive.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but beadlocks come on rims, not tires. So its a pretty spendy upgrade.

Meh, the guys were probably smoking to much of their own stock. If I had an illegal operation making "millions" every two months, I'd have a better setup than that. Hell at that amount my "cave" better have an escape pathy.

After working in a tire change shop all through high school, theres no way in hell I'd attempt a changeover with normal shade-tree mechanic tools.

Not to mention that its been proven that K&N's don't filter well to begin with, let alone if you run them without properly oiling them.

The other concern as far as the MAF goes is if you over-oil the filter element. MAF's don't function so well when that air cleaner oil gets all over the sensor.

That probably depends on the emissions regs in your county... I had a exhaust shop put a straight pipe on my old GMC with no issues at all.

I'm not sure whether to laugh or cringe

Happy B-day Mr P!

*waits for MZ to come in here advocating the use of Mercedes over Bimmers*

Ewwww

He he I just found that today. Type in "yo mama" for an easter egg.

I don't really worry about it unless its that thick heavy mud that sticks everywhere. I'll usually just pull out a hose with a nozzel on it (don't have a pressure washer), and my creeper and go to town. Just enough to get it out of my rims (can't be good for balance!) wheel wells and anywhere else I can see, like the crossmembers and whatnot.

My car is a VW 99.5 GTI -- gets good milege (32+), handles well, and has heated seats Only has about 80k on it, and just replaced the T-Stat, H20 pump, T-Belt and brakes/rotors a couple thousand miles ago. But maintenance on a VW is not cheap, and I still owe about 6K on it at about $180/mo. Add full ins to that and it probably costs me about $250/mo. Its worth about 8k, but take off some damages (break in, ran off the road) and my profit margin drops a bit. Downtime wouldn't be terrible I don't think...between my g/f's jetta and living less than a mile from work helps there lol. I don't want to sell either lol but as it is I can't afford to "love" them both, can hardly afford to mod one. And I was thinking if I didn't have the monthly payments it might offset increased fuel costs. The g/f's going to be visiting her mom for a few weeks, so I'll pull the pathy out of the garage and give it a better look over. To be reliable it will need work, lol when I say bushings I mean the whole suspension needs to be gone over, 200K of those miles were search and rescue miles lol.

Outside of a pathy I hear some of the older audi AWD's make good 'beaters.
