  1. Ok so I am going to try and hook up my backup camera tomorrow or 3/9. This is how I plan on wiring it up: A fuse coming off the battery going to a SPST toggle switch at the dash then out to the according electronics. I was thinking about tapping the power into a ignition power source but I dont know ANY THOUGHTS on which route should I go?
  2. Ok I tried a different outlet that does not communicate with the GFI and it worked!
  3. Ok so should I try another plug in the garage? I guess they are all protected by a breaker right? I just do not need a short or house fire.
  4. Ok so I checked the cord which is the bumper setup from Geno's. Anyways no visible wires looked really good I did check the plug ends all is good. I forgot to check the ohm's at each end of the chord also the heater element I dont know why but I didnt probably will try tomorrow. But I did check the ohm load on the whole system which measured 15 ohm's on the two side by side prongs not the ground. So does that help what could be wrong?
  5. I have a question I believe I know the answer but I would like some feed back. When I plug my truck in it pops the GFCI switch in the garage it never did that before. So I am going to look at it tonight but I believe its the chord Any thoughts would be awesome
  6. Thanks for the help I will call my tax guy do you think the people at the sales office would know the answer to that question? Just a thought.
  7. I will try for sure!
  8. Ok guys first off I do not know if this is in the right area of the forum but here it goes. So can you right off the interest you pay on a travel trailer on your taxes. I was told you can as long it has it has a toilet and kitchen but I want to know if you really can. I will ask my tax guy for sure but I wanted to throw the question out there anyways.
  9. ok so I think i will just run an inline fuse to a switch
  10. OK guys so I have my stuff for my backup system Camera 60.00 bucks http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_31111_Crimestopper-SV-5200.IR-Chrome.html and one of these 23.00 bucks http://www.ebay.com/itm/181033977280?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Now my question is I think I want to run this off a switch rather the reverse lights so I want to know should I run a fuse off the battery to a switch or wire a relay in then to a switch? Any thoughts on how to wire it up? Thanks in advance for the help
  11. If there is no rush save a little more coin and get the CTS the you have it .
  12. Cool! Are your ball joints bad or are you going to change them out when you convert to the free spin hubs?
  13. Hey Thanks for the response My lift did not come with a drop pitman arm the instructions said to flip the piece that connects to the arm so it goes in from the bottom instead of the top. Hope that makes sense. My lift is only a 4.5 inch. I do not go off roading often. I would love to get Carli for 800 bucks thats a lot of money but if you want quality you have to pay for it I guess. What Dynatrac's stuff are you going with?
  14. Alright guys i need some advice. My 05 has a 4.5 lift on it and the when I turn it creeks and clunks pretty bad. I had my whole steering gear box replaced years ago when it was still covered on the warranty. I think the gear box is making a little noise again not as bad as it was when I replaced it. The funny thing is it does it worse when the humidity is high anyways I want to just put all new stuff in like ball joints etc and of course I would love to get all Carli suspension but it is really expensive. So should I just replace it all with new stock or buy lets say the carli suspension upgrades piece by piece to have top quality parts. Are they any other top quality manufactures of suspension parts for our trucks? Thanks in advance for any help! NOTE: so after researching it a little what about one of those steering linkage upgrade http://www.straptperformance.com/product/1432/Mopar-Steering-Linkage-Upgrade/
  15. I agree dieselsite has one for 129 its a nice unit but I know you can piece one together for cheaper of course thanks to our filter guru AH64ID or John as some call him.
  16. This is where I found the head and bracket http://www.dieselmanor.com/fleetguard/257715S.asp Is this where you got it? Its funny I cant find it on their website only when I google it it comes up
  17. Hey AH64ID I know this is a old thread but I was wondering where you got that bracket for your coolant filter at? Are you still running the same setup? Thanks for any help! NEVERMIND: I found it Dieselmanor!
  18. Ok I got them wired in before camping They look awesome I think! I would like to say THANK YOU to all who helped me get this done I could not have done it without your help. I did wire mine a little different I put my relay that I bought form Geno's Garage under the hood than ran the 87 wire all the way back of course its wired to a switch so here are some pics!
  19. Sounds good thanks for the advice
  20. Ok I am getting ready to wire these up but I need some opinions I bought some metal electric boxes to help protect them but if you guys do not think they are needed then I can return them to save 10 bucks. As you can see the light does not sit in there perfectly straight so I was going to angle it when I mount it. I am going to mount it to an existing bolt that comes off of the frame and hitch area. The next pic's are without the box. The lights only cost me 30 bucks shipped but I thought the boxes would help protect the lights a little more. Any help would be great
  21. I just bought this bbq you can purchase the smoker in which I will try and purchase later. I have never smoked anything but I cannot wait to give it a whirl! Especially after watching BBQ pit-masters But with the smoker portion do you put charcoal in with wood chips to give flavor? I cannot wait to give it a shot I do wish I had the money for a better one but you can only do what you can do
  22. Is anyone have this setup and any thoughts on this setup? http://www.genosgarage.com/DODGE-RAM-CUP-HOLDER-03-05-06-09-NON-SPORT-10-12-NON-LARAMIE/productinfo/CUP-HOLDER-03/
  23. Hey guys I need your thoughts on these or other serpentine belts. I have 86,000 on my truck now and I think I should change the serpentine belt, but I would like a good one. http://www.puredieselpower.com/catalog/0307-dodge-59l-cummins-gatorback-poly-serpentine-belt-wac-p-33992.html http://www.genosgarage.com/GATES-K081264HD-SERPENTINE-BELT-A_C-03-12-59L-67L/productinfo/GATES-K081264HD/
