Looks like a 4 gen truck with a 3rd gen rear frame, biggest reason nothing lined up correct. Bed bolt holes spring hangers ect... also why your tank won't fit. Which drive shaft did you lengthen? Hope it was the rear if not you'll always have a vibration.
I had the same exact idea to do this, figured I would google it because I know somebody did this already, didnt expect to find a video though lmao. How is it holding up? and is the drawer still holding up? Did it work a little better after you put some weight into it? Does it seem flimsy as a whole? Though about just buying some steel sheet metal and angle and building something similiar from the ground up.
Great video. Were there any bushings, spacers or washers in between the bed and frame where the 6 bolts were? Any locktite used to keep the bolts snug or were the 6 bolts just torqued down? Thx!
I do not recall any bushings. I think a few spots had a flat, flexible rubber washer between the bed and the frame. I might be thinking of my Ford though. The factory bolts did have some blue locktite on them. Even the new bolts that I bought from the dealer have some blue preinstalled on the bolt.
I have this product as well for my wood Shed. I initially thought there was thermal barrier on both sides of the board, but there wasn’t it’s only one side. So, the side with the silver is up facing the wall of the wood shed, just like you have in your video here. Just installed them and I’m about to find out how effective they are.
@@hillsautohome346 actually it worked very well, I had the one and a half inch thick foam boards so they are pretty powerful. Over here in northern California, it gets to the upper 80s and lower 90s in the summertime and before this thing was actually installed in my shed, it was really hot around 1 PM. Now at 1 PM it’s still very comfortable on the inside, but it does start to get warm a little bit more around 4 PM. I essentially just extended the time I could use the shed, and after 6 PM in the summertime it cools down dramatically so there’s only like two hours I don’t want to use this shed.
Great Video. But... Rancho Shocks have a Life-Time Warranty. Free Exchange Only, Labor isn't included! Also the rubber boot part, when installing them w/ zip tie, leave a small weep hole gap (on both sides) to allow water to drain out.
Rancho, robust? Nice if you want a Cadillac ride in a truck. Had them from the factory on all my GMCs/Silverados and pulled them off around 10K and went with Bilstein. Not saying they won't last, just saying they are terrible for road feel and for cornering, etc.
Interesting. Have not experienced terrible road feel. Based on all the comments it appears to be negative on some applications and better on others. I also did not know that any manufacture used the RS9000 from the factory, what came from the factory with a RS9000?
Thank you so much! Your video was super helpful. Really appreciate all the details. Ignore all the rude people in the comments. The fact that they have enough time in their lives to comment on videos they don't like says it all. 😂
PS. I'm from California where everyone talks fast. I often listen to videos at higher speed. Not yours! I thought the pace was perfect for the subject matter.
I don't know if there's a big difference between the filler neck on 2500's and 3500's but mine wouldn't budge. Had to disconnect at the tank and there is absolutely no slack in the hose. You've got to stand on your head to reach your hand in between the tank and the clamps.
Hopefully one day they'll make these into full production. I like the idea of having the option of using a ratchet on them. What's you opinion after having them a while now?
They are nice to have but I rarely find uses for them. The few times I was like I have the perfect wrench for that, have been met with realizing I did not have the right size. I have needed smaller and larger or metric. So, have only used a few times now.
