    Outstanding work. I've been looking to go from AGM to a LiFePo4 as well, but didn't want to mount it under the hood. your setup looks ideal. Any more info on the components you used, or a more detailed writeup anywhere? That battery is much smaller than I would have expected. I can see some of the component model numbers in your illustration, but not all of them. Mostly interested in which battery and solar panel you used.

    I got my truck aligned for the 4th time since March! And it’s finally right! 0 camber, casters set at 2.8# both sides. Toe is set at .08 each side. Hopefully this alignment sticks for a while

    You just need to find something to go in the open space. Make it look intentional. “It’s a feature, not a flaw!”

    Drove 662 miles up to Michigan to see my Trans Am. Driving through the flooded mountains of West Virginia last night was well worth it. Truck held up great thankfully

    The plan is to make a plan. Not a clue what will fit there but it won’t be empty forever. World's tiniest air tank? Haha
