How I striped automotive chrome from plastic parts. Use Cheap Bleach! Regular, old bleach with a high Sodium Hypochlorite percentage works best. I submerged the parts in a plastic tote for a soak.
Our 2016 Ford Super Duty F350 has spent its life in the hot Arizona sun. UV rays do real damage to clear plastics. The Ford factory OEM lighting’s lenses don’t have the clarity they shipped with anymore.
The winner is: AMP Research We investigated the options and decided on the AMP Research PowerStep (P/N 75134-01A). These electric running boards get great reviews. And they’re tough! They’re proven to stand up to snow, ice, dust, mud, dirt, whatever. The running boards are anodized and coated to resist corrosion. They come with high-strength, die-cast aluminum-alloy linkage arms. The steps are aircraft-quality aluminum with a textured powder coat finish for grip and durability. They’re rated up to 600 pounds load capacity. Solid.
Our loaded but otherwise stock 2016 F350 Super Crew 4 x 4 diesel pickup, has Leather seats the Lariat trim package, fifth-wheel towing and FX4 off-road package. it’s a sweet ride with only 28,000 easy miles, hardly broken in. Mostly she stars as a photo prop for our tire inflator product line. We also use several tricked-out Jeeps, lifted with their big off-road tires and fancy 4 x 4 suspensions all “preppered” out. It’s time to take our pride back. We’re going to build this truck real nice.
Having a flat tire is often one of the main inconveniences of driving. Yes, we have all been there. Although none of us likes getting a flat, nearly all drives like the opportunity to do a little detective work and solve the apparent mystery of the missing air!
Tires are probably the most important parts of a safe vehicle. This is mainly because the tires are the only part of your car that touches the roadway. Tires directly impact your car handling, braking, ride, and most importantly safety.
Tires are easily one of the most crucial parts of your car. However, many drivers don’t give them the attention they deserve. Keep in mind that poorly maintained tires are likely to lead to deadly or dangerous accidents and can have a negative impact on the vehicle’s handling.
These 12 volt tire inflators inflate flat tires in minutes and save the day, or are used to air up and air down on the off road trail. Regardless of how or how often they’re used, most of these air compressors are bought and used for years to come.
There are those people who will casually pretend they don’t see someone in distress. They will just drive by the person with the low tire pressure without a thought….Maybe because they’re busy, maybe because they’re too important, maybe because they think they should have your own tire inflator or maybe because they just don’t give a damn.
Just because summer is winding down, it doesn’t mean that road travel is. For many drivers, the end of summer temperatures are a reminder of change to come. Some drivers are soaking up the last few weeks to hit the trails and the sand.
Nothing will ruin a perfectly good day faster than a flat tire. We don’t care what time of day it happens, where it happens, or who you are with when it happens, getting a flat tire deflates whatever good mood you are in.
Don't Take Our Word For It...Check out the review of the Air Armor M240's design and performance from truckandguns.com
When we set out to build the Air Armor M240 air compressor we started with the question, what should this thing do? Our answer was, it should be durable, be able to be tossed into a truck or mounted on a jeep. It should have some room to keep some tools or a beer dry. But, most important, it should do what it’s intended to do…. inflate a tire!
