Not really "oily" per se but I mean that rainbow stain that real, penetrative rust leaves running down the surface. Here's a few pics, you can see the bumper by this time is more touch-up than original paint.
Wanted to jump back in on this a year later. I bought the ebay Chinese knockoff Rubi bumper in Feb of 22. I think it's the best looking bumper out there and I had no issues with it for the first few months. Then it got a rock chip or two. The speed with which this bumper rusts is incredible...
Do this, just to eliminate the possibility. When you get in the situation where you KNOW it's going to make the noise, pull back on the 4x4 shifter slightly, just to the point that you feel resistance but NOT before it fully goes into 4wd. If the noise goes away, it's your front axle...
Looking to add proximity door locks, the parts install is easy enough but my dealer is both uncooperative and ignorant and simply cannot wrap their head around the concept of calling a regional manager to get the sales code added to the VIN. Has anyone had verified success in the eastern half...
So, I've been into home theater for 20+ years so believe me, I went into this knowing no car stereo can actually sound good, and ALSO tempered with the fact that I knew their claims of an actual "soundstage" in an environment as terrible as a car interior was BS (although my Audi S5's Bang &...
I got these, and I actually believe they sound worse than the stock speakers. I left them in for a couple months to "break in" as the manufacturer recommends, still didn't like them, contacted the manufacturer to return them, and was told I waited too long. After waiting for them to "break in"...
I ended up ordering a BTECH Pro. I like the phone app setup, waterproof, and bonus, it looks like it takes the same battery packs as the Baofengs, which I now already have two of. I feel less like I've wasted my money then. And I'll just leave my CB hard mounted where it is in case I run into...
-sigh- Ok. But I thought those bubble wrap radios were FRS, and didn't work on the GMRS frequencies? How do I know, if I'm buying some bubble wrap radios that they'll talk to both FRS and GMRS?
I am so confused. This is ridiculous.
Yes and yes. I've come to learn these radios aren't allowed to talk to GMRS and FRS, which is why I posted this - because everyone here recommends these radios but there's no way they actually work. At least not talking to anything other than a HAM.
OK, so now I am looking at replacing my CB with this unit:

Will I be able to take this unit, install it, and talk to other GMRS and FRS radios?
I don't want to deal with programming BS, I don't...
Found his videos already. Spent an hour trying to "unlock" both. Didn't work.
Reddit now tells me these Baofengs are HAM radios, not FRS or GMRS, and cant talk to anything other than HAM. I don't know crap about radios, just wanted to talk to other people on the trails, and I saw everyone on...
OK, so I hardmounted a CB in my Gladiator because that was what everyone had 20 years ago, when I was last into wheeling. Come to find out, no one uses CB anymore, they all use GMRS. Fast forward 20 years, get my Gladiator, getting back into fourwheeling, but no one uses CB anymore. OK, so I...
