I ran into him on the trail yesterday. The truck looks good and did well on the obstacles on Hatchet Gulch (moderate/difficult trail). He'll have a new muffler on it in the coming days. It dropped off on the trail.

It does but I missed your post and am close to home now.

Going to grab both

Measure them against the stock arms. Put in 2 or 3 turns extension. Go to the alignment shop and have them dial it in.

Yeah, I'd have to drive into Denver. Looks like $170 or so to ship it. 6 days transit time.

Greyhound is reasonable, if a bit slow, if you don't mind picking it up at the bus terminal.

I can fit it in a couple...

I can grab anything you want. The interior is black.

Yeah, I don't mind having a little bit of cash tied up for a while if someone really wants it. @jdog, you want it?

I don't really feel up to putting in a lot of manual labor for it. But I'd snag it if someone else wants it. I will check out the valve cover.

Like everything else, the corporations noticed they were losing out on a profitable segment so they came in, took over, and ruined it. I remember listening to alternative music long before it became mainstream. Back then it was "college radio". Back before it became "I'm rebelling against the mainstream, just like everyone else."

We're going back tomorrow. I can grab it if you want it.

The bumper has seen better days.

I distinguish between entertainers and musicians. Entertainers churn out pre-canned crap. Musicians actually put effort into making good music.

At the Pick N Pull in Colorado Springs.

Would this be a workable design to block the 5v to the relay but let the 12v through? https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/160460/shut-off-circuit-when-under-a-certain-voltage

Maybe a cheap little arduino could read the incoming voltages and trigger relays for the lights...

Ok, I can see that. Is it possible to tap a "hot in run" trigger somewhere? You could use that to drive a DRL relay that switches a 5v supply to the headlight (maybe integrate a step down circuit tapped to battery+ to supply to the light). Add in a second (normally closed) relay that would cut power when the low beams are turned on. You'd have a self contained harness that just has one extra wire you have to route somewhere else and tap it in.

Did you double check all of your grounds? Also, double check your splice. You need to keep the existing wires together and add the extra wire at the same time.

Is it possible to separate the DRL controller at the source and just run a different wire to the relay harness? It might take some more digging to do that but if you can isolate it so that the headlight switch just controls the normal lights and then have the DRL trigger run through a different relay, would that simplify things a bit?

Sure. But not organized like that. I choose my playlists depending on my mood. And for things like Mozart, I don't like to shuffle in pieces of a work or listen to one part by itself. They're better played in sequence.

The blue wire is the running lights. Tie that in to the license plate lights. Black is ground.

Same here. The chain will stretch before the tcase wears out. Remember, the front output is the lowest point in the case. The front bearing sits in an oil bath 100% of the time. It never lacks lubrication.

You don't hear about that as much with newer music. It's cool to hear that some bands still try to do that. You used to see it a lot more back in the day. The 70s was full of "album rock" like that. I normally connect my car to my phone running Power Amp. I have several play lists set up so I can choose based on my mood. I have a wide range of tastes so "shuffle all" would be weird. Switching from Black Sabbath to Dave Brubeck to Suicidal Tendencies to Motzart to Megadeth to Joy Division to Jefferson Airplane would be... weird.
