    Grabbers are awesome, nearly 80% as quiet as stock, plus the aggressive look, great off road handling. Downside, they are mudders so don’t expect great perf on wet pavement. Otherwise solid buy vs the legacy solutions.

    I installed an Auxbeam 8 switch panel and fuse block, installed the Expedition Essentials dash mount with powered USB supply, and added the Midland MXT275 MicroMobile GMRS 15W radio. I need to hard wire the radio so I don't have to look at the 12v plug, but I need to get either a wire slice or an add-a-fuse.

    Tomorrow's project will be assembling and installing the UpTop Overland Truss bed rack.

    Is that corrosion (the green color) starting to form on your negative battery post?

    Yep. 2021 with 11,000'ish miles and there was a fair amount of corrosion prior to me cleaning it up before the electrical install. I'd guess (I'm no battery experty) that it's coming from the off gassing of hydrogen gas coming from the OEM battery. You can also see some darker color around the vent caps.

    This is my first Toyota so I'm not aware of any particular battery issues. I do live in west central Georgia where 90% humidity and 100° temps are normal. Maybe the heat causes more venting. I'll probably switch to a deep cycle sealed battery when this one goes.

    Awesome, I used to camp there all the time. I have not been in several years though.

    that is my plan too!! I am pretty muchh used to minimalist camping, and will probably follow the same idea.

    what kind of cap is that?
    what kind of bed lights?
    are all of the molle panels Rough Country?

    can we see picks of the outside at some point?

    Made a DIY mount for my portable Dobinson’s air compressor. Not to bad since I don’t have a welder and just bent it using a vise.

    I used the three bolts behind the air filter box in the picture to mount it to the truck.

    The same can be said about anyone moving to Oregon. I’ve lived there. It was great. It’s not anymore

    So I have no use for it right now. Not sure what I’ll even mount to it. No dash cam yet but was going to mount that to the rear view stalk anyways. So… I wasted more money

    Main reason for my ram browsing was a new arm for my phone mount- changing it up from the magnetic/plate I’ve been using. Still waiting on parts to finish this up though
