    HERE WE GO AGAIN!!!

    Got a recall notice for my 2021 SS today. This was about the rear studs not being pressed in properly. I have had another one for the same thing last year. What is up?

    There is a cheap way out that we use since we don't need them every day. Home Depot sells aluminum ramp ends and the 2x12 boards to make them with. you only need 2 since the rear end doesn't drag. I place these on my trailer ramp and drive up. It gives me the clearance I need for the front. They are both about 5 feet long.

    There is another option. You can order a 5 switch kit from slingmods that mounts on the left side of your steering wheel. 0n the 2020+ models you have to drill a hole in the plastic cover of the steering wheel but it fits perfectly. this gives you 5 switches you can add all kinds of junk with. I put one i had on my 2021 that i took off my 19 and it fits and functions perfectly. Replacing or adding switches to a 19 or earlier is simple. Taking all that stuff apart just to get to ,one switch isn't worth it to me. But good luck.

    Yes I did get a 2021 service manual and it looks just like the older wiring. But even better I ran across a guy who put new 2021/22 tail lights in his 19 SS and they worked fine.

    Our exact dates are locked in. We will depart Austin on July 31 for SD. We will spend 3 days on the ground then depart for Colorado Springs for 3 days. Return home Aug 8th. Now making plans for the runs and tourist traps as well as really neat national park visits.

    Announcing our first Babe's Chicken run to Burleson for this year. We will depart the HEB at 1100 S. I-35 frontage rd. in GEORGETOWN. Aat 9AM stop at Buc-ees in Temple, at 9:40am departing at 10:00 for the rest stop in Abbot then it's up to Babe's in Burleson at 12 Noon. We welcome all commers for the best fried chicken in Texas.

    Right now it looks like the 6th of August starting out and should last a week. The date is being worked out to fit all parties schedules but this is the best I have for now. I will post the exact dates as soon as possible. It would be great to have anyone join up with us along the way.

    :thumbsup: What trips are you looking at for this summer?


    In addition to The Sling Experience , a few Riders for life events and a couple of Babe's chicken runs we are planning our BIG TRIP this year to Mt. Rushmore, possibly Yellowstone, and coming back through Colorado.


    WHAT trips are you planning for your Sling this Summer???

    We ordered some in Vegas from Slingscene and I do not recommend them. Missing parts when we got them, didn't work when wired up, No instructions when we got them. All this was corrected but it took way too much time and trouble. The replacement parts haven't been wired up yet so at this point I don't know if we have a working set or not. Will repost when I get time to disassemble the ones mounted and replace the LED's and reassemble them
