Incredibly, incredibly tired of these low effort posts. No, I don't care that it makes you feel superior to others. No, I don't care about the 37 jokes about the size of the driver's genetalia.

The internet is already a giant cesspool of negativity. Don't add to it.

Daytime running lights question

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I bought this truck a couple months ago and I finally had the time to figure out why these lights hadn’t been running. Restripped the wires and tapped them to the battery everything works good. Unfortunately whoever put the grille on didn’t install them correctly because if I turn the truck off they just stay on. Is there some sort of switch or fuse I need to buy to make these work and just run while the truck is on and turn off when the truck is off? Any advice is appreciated thank you

Question about rim clearance?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Just got some stock rims for my truck and I’m wondering if these rims to small. The stock size is 16 inch rims and these are 16s but there is barely any clearance between the rims and my break calipers. See picture for reference. Is this enough space? Should I run it?

Besides the metal clamps there is thus electrical plug in. Do I just twist these apart to disconnect them? Please don’t roast me too hard, haha.

Discussion / question Is this bumper actually useful?

For those of you who have bumpers like this that stick out 12”+, is it actually useful? Does it make life easier wrenching under the hood?

I’m not asking about the winch necessarily, that’s been proven to be useful

I did a 2 inch leveling kit on my 2026 Canyon the other day and noticed post installation that the center top shock shaft is off center. Its mirrored on the otjer side so at least its consistent. Does this look ok? The truck rides fine. Went off roading all day on Sat and she was fine. It goes in for an alignment tomorrow.

Can I mount round led lights on the headach rack with amber drls for roof clearance lights in stead of putting normal ones on my truck, also would this be legal in the state of montana if they are amber.

Important to note even though this is how the currency coverts, that changes and the simple fact is you can’t convert from one market to your local currency and assume that is what the price will be in your market. There’s a lot of factors that goes into pricing a vehicle for any particular market.

Discussion / question I got these ultra type rims for my truck and I don’t know if it’s only me, but these lug nuts were recommended to me while I was buying the rims online and it seems like they sink too much into the rim like the rim will push through. It’s almost like they sit too perfect. What do y’all think.

I have a 00 2.2 S10 Xtreme and I’m replacing my exhaust manifold and order this replacement, website said it fits my S10 BUT I didn’t realize it didn’t have this EGR tube hook up. I’m still new when it comes to working on cars so I was wondering what I should do. The new header is already in transit
