The factory lighting has bugged me for a while now. Someone stated perfectly that “it is good for brain surgery, but not for hanging out”. Also, my factory lights were losing LEDs steadily for some reason, plus one had a bad connection I couldn’t seem to fix. I will note that it was surprisingly...

Thanks. And yeah I was actually thinking, this would be much easier by installing one of those tailgate width LED brake light strips that mounts below the tailgate, and stays on your truck full time. I feel like those were more popular back in the day, can't remember the last time i saw a...

This mod has been on my mind for a while now. After I saw a horrific post about someone getting their FWC rear ended, I suspect people on the road have become dumber these days, and if they don't see a third brake light then they are easily confused. Despite the fact that you can "sort of" see...

Some of these pics might be upside down. Couldn't seem to fix it after upload. You'll get the idea though. Anyway, Notice the first pic, I don't even have a dog but I know there is dog hair in way of the switch! Apparently the previous owner had one! But do you see what I mean? This heater...

Taking apart the sail switch

I like your theory about the air density. It does validate my experience where I can always fix my heat by cleaning the sail switch, while keeping the ducting installed. Last time I was in the cold fixing my sail switch I did take it fully apart and did take pictures. I also used some sand...

I do believe someone mentioned this before in another forum and they said the furnace is smart enough to not allow this type of hack. The furnace will refuse to light if that switch is already closed before the blower starts spinning, it knows something is up. But it makes me wonder if a hard...

I have to say I believe it is more an issue of a dirty sail switch and less about the resistance from the 3" of ducting and slight bend (lmfao). Mthomas may be right about these heaters running at the "bare minimum" to activate the sail switch, but how come my heater kept working even at 11.7...

Cool to see someone elses stats! I don't exactly drive slow but i like to think i make "wise decisions" and drive accordingly when it is warranted. I think I would do the same in a half ton anyway. And I know payload and tow ratings are two different things, but I also justify some of our...

Another testament of a 1/4 ton truck doing 1 ton things, lol. I have an 05 Tacoma short bed with a fully loaded Swift. I have been all over the map about the GVWR argument. I chose the hard way and kept the Tacoma/had to do the upgrades. I don't necessarily regret it, my friends with F150s...

How do you like it after some use?
