Beats the pictures I was looking through. Then I was looking at you tube "wheel well liner" to send you a link but the ones I looked at I didn't want you to think I associated with them! lol

wth, there still isn't any pics of the dangly on that post. You do get the part numbers for the replacement bits though.

Line-x spray rear wheel wells

I love my Line-X bed liner but personally would never choose it for rear wheel wells.

IMO whether your interest is aesthetics and/or easier cleaning and/or reduction of noise from thrown-up pebbles, the easy to DIY-install aftermarket Husky wheel-well liners do a better job on all fronts.

They look great, by 'confining' the area around the wheels they serve to reduce mud from accumulating in odd nooks and crannies from the front of the bed to the rear bumper, and because they're slicker than Line-X are much less likely to accrete mud and are easier to clean.

Just one opinion.

I'd skip the Dash cam install and save hundreds with installing your own setup. Most dash cams even the really high end ones use one of a couple CMOS sensors and main board firmware.




If the truck has an auto dimming rearview then get the Dongar Tech adapter and call it a day with your chosen camera. I went with this one when my Rexing V1 4K unit died. Install with the Dongar adapter literally took about 60 seconds with the pigtail and a couple zip ties to prevent anything from hanging down.

Video quality is very nice for a $60 cam, with plate tags and road signs clearly legible. Only downside is you have to download their app and connect via the camera's WiFi. A couple big pluses are it's silent when powering up and so small that it tucks up behind the rearview very well. Hopefully the Ford techs won't even know it's there and unplug it like they would the Rexing. You can get a camera with rear video feed and GPS for close to $100 if you want those features but I'd say skip the high dollar ones as they are no better than the budget models. I tested several high end ones including the one offered by Ford and noted like Linus did that the video quality was no better than the 50-60 units.

Just watched video - thanks VERY much for the post!

Linus is a great guy. He's thrown 100s of thousands if not Millions now into the "LTT Labs" which will be an independent testing facility for different technology products (Keyboards, cables, monitors, etc.). He was sick of all the independent publishers getting bought out by big media conglomerates and their reviews becoming nothing more than paid sponsorships*. If you're into computer stuff at all another good independent reviewer for computer components is GamersNexus.

*LTT does do sponsored content, but he is very clear when a video is sponsored and is very clear that he while may not say anything bad in a sponsored video, he will definitely never say something that isn't true. I trust his and his Teams opinions and reviews fully when making decisions (though I don't only depend on their reviews)

WOW! Look at this non square truck I found without stickers! And one of those thingys on the front. or is that thingies? And the aforementioned unknown name part in front of rear tire but hard to see.

I actually removed mine and cut them down with a dremel tool. It was one step of the installation instructions for the Amp side step.
