Following, same high interest in advise. DYI &/or 3D print the window cover & hvac funnel

As above & Limit VP drain I plan to connect a jackery battery & solar panel

I got a James Baroud on a Xtrusion rack using quick release pins

More specifically, any suggestions outside of Google-ing the cause & common solutions. I got ~40,000 miles thus far & avoid at nearly all cost for using my regular foot brake or cruise control initiated foot brake. Seems a stretch to need new brake pads at 40K miles?

I didn’t know enough to know this. I guess I’ll have to take off the tires & inspect. please suggest any action I might need to take.

Sir, the picture you show is not mine. you give a long explanation to a simple question thanks for pointing that out. It could be just a reflection. I’ll take a closer look.

Any chance someone can tell me the width of the bottom of the Mark Jack Pucks. They sell the rubber bottoms separately for 18 $. I’d like to not throw mine in a land fill & spend a 100 for a whole new set. Thanks in advance!

The vehicle was not sliding, just the puck. & the suspension height was not changing because I set the truck in tire change mode

That’s a good point. However, the manual shows using the jack or changing one tire and lifting up at one point. The slipping of the jack puck happened when attempting to lift the truck at all four points at one time.

Thanks SoCal Rob. I’ll look into those pucks, because other shops or a body shop for that matter may not pat

that’s a good suggestion. The manager here said he was happy to lift 1 corner / wheel at a time. He didn’t want to take any risk.

A great shout out to Costco Newport News VA for doing a great job changing tires on my R1T. As they lifted the truck on all 4 points, 1 of the 4 Jack pucks was sliding on their lift points (plastic surface). The manager had excellent attention to detail, as he carefully tested the lift & saw...

Nice. Thanks for testing it out.

Based on other posts, I’ve gotten a 12v battery tender to hook up to a portable 1000w battery. Eventually get solar panel(s). Reports are truck is completely asleep & 12v health is extended.

would it be possible to plug both in at once/ same time?

Why go through the trouble of getting a tender, if you just plug the vehicle in and put it in shipping mode? I see your point about the benefit of shipping mode and using a tender. I’m just trying to understand the benefit if I’ve got the wall charger in my garage, instead of using the tender...

As always, thanks again for the details! I'm getting the 'Hard Impact Designs' quick release mounts ( https://hardimpactdesigns.com/ ). The single bolt (2 per mount), not the double bolt (4 per mount) style, as the 4/mount will not fit the channels of the Xtrusion rack. The black metal...

Hi Singletracker, I got the rack & the JB tent. Was needing to know what/how you're attaching the tent to the extrusion rack. More specifically, I'm trying to figure out what can be used slides into the rails of the JB RTT. I using the 'Hard Impact Designs' - quick release RTT mounts. The...

If you’re looking for more than 4 bikes, see: ‘Alta Racks’ Can fit 6 to 8 bikes. Rock solid stability. There’s other similar ‘vertical bike racks’. I chose Alta b/c it was the strongest of the bunch & it’s storage rack allows for bike storage & rolls around my garage as well. ‘Tongue weight’...
