New "mods"
I went Bajaing 2 days ago in a new subdivision(their just starting the roads, and my friends family owns the company doing the work), and hit I bump I didn't see and then wham. Then yesterday at lunch I had to slam on my brakes to avoid a dog and the ABS/Brake lights came on, then on my way home I realized my turn signals didn't work. Turned out I somehow blew the ABS/turn signal fuse when I bottomed out... So yea, I won't do that again anytime soon.

ouch, prbly a good thing you didnt make it to the badlands with luck like that.
|
Yea, tell me about it.
|
I see you upgraded the positive wire on your battery/amp to 4g. Did you upgrade the negative also? You need to do that also to gain as much as possible...just doing the positive is pointless unless you have a negative that's the same or larger.
|
that does suck
|
I wish I could afford to get a nice truck like that and tear it up. My 01 sees some woods-action, and some mud every now and then, but "baja-ing"? --- NEVER. These trucks don't have a stock suspension made for that.
|
That stinks. Gotta hate breaking stuff.
GM trouble light is awesome, I've thought about getting one myself. |

I avoid flying down rough roads, etc -- ANything that even resembles Baja
|
You're rough on your truck.
|
This is the roughest I've been with it since I bought it. The damage was mainly due to a cheapo brushgaurd, but you get what you pay for... And the plastic piece was ripped off when I was going slower, it got snagged and I didn't realize it, cause I just found it last night.
|
I wouldn't call it a "cheapo" brushguard haha. I had one too and the height clearance on the bottom of the brushguard was so low that I constantly hit it off of the ground off road. I did hit a nice bump once and completely jar it up like you did. I was always taking the brackets off and bending them back to straight haha.
|
that sucks, your lucky you didn't pop the airbags
|
I was only doing 5-10, but oh well, least I learn from my mistakes.
|
Yeah i learned that hitting ant hill that is almost as tall as my truck can get really hairy keeping the truck right side up. So yeah i know how you feel when **** happens. My front pumpkin on my truck still leaks.
|
that sucks man
|
That Sucks man. How's the axle going?
|
I love those GM trouble lights, every truck i have owned, except this one, i put it in
