Author Topic: Mods at BratFest V 9/6/09 (Read 5911 times)

So can anybody attending install train horns, LED sail panels (if not installed by then), program with a HyperTech programmer, install jimmi jammers? I need help because I'm a modding idiot

and have a stack of undone mods

for me to attempt ANY mods after my infamous tail light fiasco.

oHIobellboy · « **Reply #1 on:** July 25, 2009, 08:52:42 PM »

Train horns are a project that shouldn't be done at a GTG like Bratfest. Time consuming and it takes away from the socializing. I did my Jimi's last year while we were there and those can be done. SPL's shouldn't be too bad. I don't plan on doing anything to mine this year. Last year I don't think I spent more than an hour total socializing and I'd like to do a little more of that this year.

I'm with OhioBellboy on this.
I think spending a little time helping out on some mods will be fine, but it will need to be limited.
I still catch grief over last year.

I'll try and get out there and we can do yours and Darren's lights before then. Hopefully within the first couple of weeks in aug. I go to dayshift Aug 4 so it would either need to be an evening or weekend. Of course I have to get the lights on order first.

Not planning on modding ~~ours~~ Ginas this year.

Damn!! I was going to make a list of my mods that are still waiting to be done. Lets see, where should I start?
Tailgate Torsion Bar
WigWag DRL/Turn Signals
Finish m Stereo Install, just kidding, I hope this is done before then!

Wig wags a d the torsion bar shouldn't be to time consuming.

I'm thinking mod time should be from about 10 to 1, with lunch at 1pm and socializing after lunch. Don't bring a hammock for an after lunch nap, that could be dangerous.

I didn't think they would.

I like that idea, maybe this should be a GTG rule to stick by? While I think the modding is awesome I also think these GTG's should be about meeting new folks or hanging out with old friends with a cold beverage of your choice!!!!!

Dangerous like if I close my eyes someone might take advantage of me?!?!?

I agree.

I also like the idea of a 10 to 1 mod session and then socialize.
I say bring the mods and let's see what can get done.
If it doesn't get done, just bring them back home........or you can just leave them with me and I'll try them out on my truck and let you know if they are any good.

Whats the AOH mod? Also is the 4 diodes and some heat shrink all I need to do the Wigwag drls? If so I am going to pick some up. Anyone know a good cheap place to get some cup holders? I found some at wal mart but they are too big, like 3 3/4 instead of the three. I only have the sail panel leds on mine, besides when i tightened the tourshin bars on the front for lift. any other cheap mods anyone know of?

AOH stands for All on High....when you hit your high beams every light on the front of the truck stays on instead of the fogs and low beams turning off. Also, one of the diodes is used to keep your drls on even when the headlights come on.

the wigwags require a couple of relays and some cutting and splicing to make this happen.
this thread has the parts needed linked from the site I get mine from. I've got two sets of parts to do it on other trucks along with the extra wire and t-taps needed. If you want me to bring it along and install it $20 will cover the parts. Never a charge for labor.

I am going to have to find where the right side drl wire is damaged first. i couldnt find it the other day when i was looking so i just ran a temp wire to keep it one. i didn't like the idea of just leaving it off. so 20 bucks for the wigwags, tempting, i may have to get back to you on that. what parts are needed for the aoh mod?

I found the part number for the nylon anchor nuts (.302 X .481 square, fits #8 screw) needed to secure the Mag light brackets, the #8 X 1/2" stainless screws shouldn't be a big deal either. When I get a chance I'll head to Home Depot or Lowes and pick them up. I'll run by my local ACE Hardware and look for the Mag light brackets, I thought I saw them there in the past?

When I saw last weekend that we were going to have dry weather all this week I got the AV nice clean on Sunday. Didn't do much other than vacuum it out, run it through a car wash, handwashed the wheels and applied tire dressing. Still looks good, although I could give the cladding a little love.

Didit and Lu are camping down this way over the weekend and are going to stop by Saturday afternoon so I'll have spend some time socializing with them.

Didit and Lu are camping down this way over the weekend and are going to stop by Saturday afternoon so I'll have spend some time socializing with them.

How close are they gonna be? Lu owes me a hug and I'd like to see Dr Didit also.

tdyber27 - don't you have a Hypertech to install? That will be easy.

They are camping at Shakamak State Park in southern Indiana. I assume you will be traveling on I-70 west of Indianaplis? Shakamak is about 45 minutes south of I-70, roughly one full county from the Indiana/Illinios boarder. Do a search and I'm sure you can find more info on the park and how to get there, LOL!

About 5 CAC decals

tdybr27 · « **Reply #92 on:** September 08, 2009, 08:41:06 PM »

Also got the programmer up and running on the AV.

Bug shield won't fit with the current billet grille I have. I will either buy a new billet grille or just remove it completely as I've never been happy with it since I got it, just lived with it.

My SPL's will hopefully come later this month along with my Jimmi Jammers. I figured it was too much of a hassle to attempt the jimmi jammers this weekend.

Also don't forget the many CAC decals installed Sunday. I have to get a scraper of some kind so I can take my old decal off before putting the new one on. I like the way they look on the windshield

so I might do one there too! (I just don't have a sunroof to stand up through so it would be tougher on mine.

Ski Edition · « **Reply #93 on:** September 08, 2009, 08:42:14 PM »

We wired up my Aux fog lights and there were a bunch of decals applied.

I ordered the other pieces we need for the SPL's yesterday. So they should be here in a few days and we can make plans.

Yeah I may be thinking the same thing. I had to replace mine a few months ago and then got another crack a couple of weeks after. Fortunately we have only ever had to replace mine and now this one on any autos we have ever owned. Knock on wood.
