    Carven 5” exhaust tips

    Show me them!!! I currently have moes 5” ones and they look terrible. I’ve tried powder coating, painting, plasti-dipping and I can’t get it to stay on them. It keeps coming off and since moes are discontinued I’m looking at the carven ones. But I’m not fully sold on them yet, plus I don’t know...

    Water pump leak

    Replaced my water pump over the weekend, towards the top of the pump there’s a screw that goes in with an allen bit. Was I supposed to put some Teflon tape around it before install? The one that I took off didn’t have tape and didn’t have any signs of leakage there either. But this one has a...

    Grille options for a ‘12

    Looking to change up my front grille, whether it be inserts or the grille itself, let’s see what you got. Not to upset anyone but I don’t drive a raptor so I’m not interested in the one with the 3 lights in it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Exhaust issue...

    Anyone that put shorties on have their exhaust tips stick out further? If so, how did you correct them? Had shorties put on after a few broken studs and my tips stick out about 2-3” further. It’s driving me crazy!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Broken bolt options

    So I had at least one manifold bolt break over the past week. And yes I know it’s that and not the cam/lifters so I won’t be posting a video asking what the problem is. Anyways, how many have just replaced the bolts and gaskets? And how many replaced the manifold with some shorties? Looking for...

    Mess...no more

    Since they decided to put the oil filter in a horrible place and it makes a mess every time I took it off, I decided to do something about it. Took a windshield washer fluid jug and cut to contour the filter/space the filter occupies. Fits perfectly and still leaves room to spin the filter off...

    Alfaobd help!

    Hope I’m posting this in the proper section. I recently downloaded and installed the program. I’m using obdlink mx+, when I log on it reads my truck just fine. When I boot up the alfaobd I selected the proper vehicle (pictured) and it’ll connect but when I go into regular mode it displays...

    Interior wrap

    Decided to tackle wrapping some interior parts to change the look, looked easy enough. Well, it wasn’t as easy as I thought it’d be. Took longer than I thought but for being my first time trying it, I’m pretty pleased with it. It’s in no way a perfect job but I can live with the flaws, might try...

    Illuminated cup holder help

    So I ordered some led cup holder inserts. They require to be connected to a switched 12v source, which is fine but I want to connect them to a source that is only on when the headlights are on. Anyone have any suggestions as to where to find a switch that I can tap into? It’s a 2012 with the...

    Headlight alignment

    Long story short my passenger side headlight aims off to the right. Doesn’t matter what bulbs I put in, bought 2 different sets of housings off eBay from different sellers and they both do it. Factory housing are just fine. Is there any kind of adjustment to straighten this out or is it just the...

    Lights to match morimoto fogs

    So I just put in the morimoto fogs, looking to see what headlights guys with these are running. I have the reflector style housing, I know there won’t be an exact match but I’m looking to get as close as possible. I looked up different bulbs and went with the Philips diamond vision cause...

    Squeak from engine

    Need some help, did a search and couldn’t find anything. Lately I’ve had a squeak in the engine, used a mechanics stethoscope and found it coming from the belt tensioner, so I replaced that and also the belt and idler pulley while I was there. Well the noise is back. Everything has been torqued...

    Shake when braking

    Any help will be appreciated, when I go to stop I get a shake when I'm braking. It doesn't matter what speed I'm going either. Now here's the interesting part, it doesn't happen all the time, sometimes it'll be every time I stop other times I could go an entire day with nothing. So I replaced...

    Opt7 with quad lights..

    For those of you with the opt7 LED lights in your quad headlights, when installed where are the led's located? In mine they are roughly at the 2 and 8 position, I would assume they should more at 3 and 9. I double checked everything, just wanted to make sure that's correct or if there's a way...

    Another new guy!

    Just wanted to say hey! Been part of other forums for a few years now and just found out about this site. Now I get to spend a ton of time reading up on past posts, which I find cool. I'm more of a lurker than a poster but I'll still chime in every so often. My truck is a '12 big horn with...
