    Spamming mods. Everything I've done is stuff I've meant to get done. I wanted to space it out enough to determine each mod functions correctly, then transition to the next mod. Everything I've scheduled is something i've planned to do for a couple years. After I get my ditch lights, rear bumper and skids squared-away, I'll be on the next step on figuring what it needs.

    Changed out my cabin air filter and engine air filter today. Changed my rear bumper order to include a carrier for 2 scepter water/fuel cans on the swingout.

    I realised fuel consumption was getting risky on a 4-day trip to Big Bend. I spent most of the time in the south-eastern portion of the park. I also didn't like how I had to strap things down in the bed, so moving things outboard will help, slightly. I also have a bunch of gas cans and water cans.

    I'm sure. I just need to redo some purification on my water can and clean out the fuel cans.

    Installed Meso Customs LED map lights and tuned my CB with an SWR today.

    At night, just the map lights
    15538233855325087664328893207163.jpg
    I still can't get any SWR readings, following directions after using a second SWR meter. I don't have problems communicating with my CB, but it's range sucks. I think I'm done fucking with it.

    Edit: YouTube taught me how to use it right. Got the SWR readings to 1.2 CH1, 1.2 CH20 and 1.35 CH40

    Wired up a third brake light with some waterproof connectors so I can quick detach the connection if I roll the Softopper up.

    I also purchased a multimeter and a new inline 20A fuse. The setup works perfectly.
