    Unique only lasts as long as it’s not easy. I like the pro style and would have gone with it had it been available for 2-1/2 gens but went a bit further afield with a diy satoshi. Last week was the first time I’ve seen the same material used in a grill (older Ranger) since doing the mod several years ago.

    Made this slide out mount for my fridge last Friday. Whipped up these little mounting trays for fridge to sit on this morning. An hour between design, cut, and bend. Much nicer than the plywood piece I had originally.

    Swapped in some new led reverse bulbs. So much brighter than the stock ones.

    Which ones did you get? I got some off of Amazon but they weren't that much better than stock. I'd like something brighter

    Devised a simple rail mount setup for shower awning. Shower awning just gets stowed to rail when not in use, then quick mounted to spare tire whenever actually needed. Cut gaps in awning mount to allow adjusting knobs to just slide in place, then just tighten down to rail T-nuts.

    I thought the same thing but then realized it's probably long travel so it's got humps for the wheels.
