    Yeah. Most here don’t recommend tinted headlights. What you want are headlights with the BLHM

    Ill quote my wife "you're going through that without a recovery vehicle" haha we crossed water 3 times and spent about 100 miles of the trip on dirt roads. (I walked it first, the water crossing) Couldn't believe this was what she wanted to do on mothers day!!

    Brought home a large french door fridge. New dakers didn't give 2 shits. Barely noticed it was back there on the drive home. Love the new rear-end setup!

    Look into falken wildpeak atw3 in that size. They fit perfectly & run on cheaper side but perform very well w / great reviews

    Yesterday -
    Removed tailgate
    Installed @At The Helm bedside reinforcements
    Replaced 4' Firestik with an old 102" whip (mounted on a potbelly spring on the bedside reinforcement)
    Grabbed an old Radio Shack CB (Cobra clone) and the leaf springs I had pulled off of my '07 Ram 1500 QC (to build custom leaf packs) out of storage
    Angered the weather gods by washing it, resulting in almost 24 hours of perpetual thunderstorms.

    Most people say you've to bring a fridge in vertical position.
    So, last year I brought a big one for 200 miles , vertical.
    mph changed radically !!!

    Up right is only if it it's been used or plugged in. Brand new like one it the pic shouldn't matter too much but I'd still give it 24hrs yo let all the fluids settle just in case.
