What did you do to your Trailboss today? 🛠️

Installed the other day but finally got around to taking a pic. Love Tackform’s products

Got some wire clips off Etsy to keep the cable all tidy.

Looks sweet. Does it keep the phone well out of the way of the shifter? And can you verify which model mount you used, and what kind of clips you got from Etsy?

Terrible photo but took delivery of my brothers 2023 TB

Didn’t realize how “low end” the Custom would be, but I’ll upgrade the interior slowly over time.

Needs tires ASAP…gonna try and do that this weekend, maybe. Going to 33’s, we really like the new Bridgestone Dueller Maverick AT so gonna go with those.

*edit: ordered the 33” Bridgestones and a Trackform MagSafe dash mount we’ve had one in our Gladiator for almost 2 years now and it’s been worry free so stoked for the newer MagSafe wireless design for this truck

Little more downhill for you. Congrats on your brothers truck purchase!

It looks like a rip off of the Bullet Point mounts

The tablet mount off Etsy is stuck in Indianapolis so I’m still waiting on that

The Tackform is: https://www.tackform.com/products/t...-for-year-trim-details?variant=47375806365870

Took time to install, because I didn’t wanna take the whole dash out to mount it with nut and bolt; they provide self tapping screws and supplied 3M double coded sticky tape, so I used that and it worked well.

Once I get everything and do the install, I’ll make a thread about it. I’ll post in here too obviously but yeah.

I ChatGPTd it and Bulletpoint was first, Tackform’s was second. So cool, I guess.

Tackform has been around since 2012, Bulletpoint was later. Both have cool products. I just like Tackform more, personally.

I used Corsa. Yes definitely a noticeable difference in throttle response and little better gas mileage. 100% more noticeable in the cold winter air than in these warm summer months.

Do you have a problem with the corsa having an air leak around the pcv rubber grommet that throws a p0106 code?

Installed these pod lights today. I originally wanted to install 2 pods per bracket but I couldn’t get them to fit . So I ended up with this set up. Also have a 20” LED light bar that I have no idea where to install . Anybody have a light bar installed on their Trailbboss?

I put the softopper on right after I bought it. In the last couple of weeks I added Mammoth 1.5 wheel spacers, and a decked cargo-glide.
Currently at 124,000 miles.

I'm looking for a way to keep the ditch lights or mirror lights on past 7 mph as chevy's computer insists. Any ideas are welcome.

Didn’t like the idea of these being open for the winter letting the elements into the bed so found a cool Etsy shop that makes any variety of these things. I went with the Z71 since this area of the truck has “Chevrolet” and “Trail Boss” already, might as well throw the Z71 there too lmao

And yes I need to clean my truck again…it’s been raining lately so didn’t want to bother yet

Did you get these off Etsy?

Si, I did: https://www.etsy.com/listing/445206...rra-stake-pocket?ref=share_ios_native_control

Etsy is dangerous, man…so many useful 3D printed goodies out there hahaha

I’ll take better pics tomorrow, but my tablet mount finally came in so I finished configuring my old 8th gen iPad (with the help of ChatGPT) and got it mounted

The lock screen has a 66 step side C10 in candy apple red, that was my dad’s first project truck when I was a kid (‘97 to ‘00 or so).

That Home Screen has my wife’s jeep (supposed to be a Gladiator but AI fucked it all up ) and my CJ7 I just got (but a finished AI version lol).

I’ll use ChatGPT to help me build out a thread for setting this up for anyone else interested. I’ll make a separate thread for it with ETSY links and stuff.

I just ordered a set off a different vendor is why I asked. The ones I got has a light grey bowtie. Decided to go with that vs the red since the truck is red tint coat or whatever it's called today. Didnt want the reds to clash lo..
