    I used this rhino rack bracket. I wanted a T shaped bracket so the awning sat nice and tight instead of an L sticking way up.

    I've been waiting to add my Overland Equipped Aux Fuse kit at the same time I put a new battery in but my voltage booster is currently trapped in Australia so I decided to just put it in now. Super easy install, took all of 2 minutes to bolt it in.

    Thanks! I love having it. I run my fridge 24/7, charge devices, power some lights at night, and last October I ran a 12v heated blanket off it a couple cold nights.

    Finally put the Odyssey battery in today. After pulling the battery that was in there I could really see how much damage the leaking was doing. So I sanded everything down, hit it with some rust reformer, and then topped it off with some Duplicolor perfect match.

    Another minor addition to the truck. Picked up a 3gallon rotopax and their bed rail mount.

    It’s not perfect but it’s close enough that it doesn’t bother me. I got it from camelback Toyota already painted.
