    I dont have one at the moment, but i can

    I used two strips of aluminum, then bolted it through the valleys of the bed so the slide in camper wouldnt have any issues sliding in. then bolted the tank to that. It was a pretty quick situation. I wanted to mount it more forward, but the complexity of the brackets, just made me stop caring. I didnt want to have to weld up brackets for this

    OK. Some people asked for some air picture shit.

    Here you go

    [​IMG]IMG_5028 by Grant Wilson, on Flickr
    You can see the new Iggy Corp relay box, and the compressor up there.
    The wiring can now get cleaned up. Winch power wire shortened, Northstar battery ordered, And everything wired through the IggyCorp System! I hate a bundle of wires.

    Had to make a mounting bracket.
    Started with some crap channel i had laying around
    [​IMG]Iggycorp electical box by Grant Wilson, on Flickr
    [​IMG]Iggycorp electical box by Grant Wilson, on Flickr
    cut a side off, sanded all the edges round, and cleaned it up
    [​IMG]Iggycorp electical box by Grant Wilson, on Flickr
    Notched for ground wire, and holes for mounting

    bracket installed
    [​IMG]Iggycorp electical box by Grant Wilson, on Flickr
    drilled two small holes and used 8-32 screws with rubber washers for vibration and locknuts.
    Everything i use is either aluminum or stainless steel. No corrosion issues here!

    Built the compressor bracket from 1/4" stainless as well.

    Great build. So funny. I watched one of your videos, so when I read your posts, I can hear your voice in my head. The only thing missing is question marks at the end of every sentence :laughing:

    Just messing around bro :) I grew up on Maui in the 80s and went to public schools, so if I put up a video, you probably wouldn't understand anything that comes out of my mouth :oops:
    That video really made me want to buy a shadow awning tho.

    Did some wiring, ditch lights, iggycorp wiring system and a few big changes.
    But first, camping!

    Also, a deal came up on a Fleet Four Wheel Camper I cannot pass up. Heading up to PA on the 19th to grab it. That wil turn into a 5 day roadtrip hitting Philly for a cheesesteak, onwards to DC for some museum love, and im going to try to do some exploring in VA on the way back. WE will see

    The weekend after we get back will be going to Amelia Island to camp, then the weekend after that Ocala with a weekend camping in Disney sometime soon after that.
    Tons of fun!

    I camped in Ocala national forest last week by hopkins praire but it was miserably hot with lots of bugs (lowest it got was about 73 degrees). Not doing that again till at least October lol.

    Also I'm jelly of that James Baroud RTT, I'm trying to figure out a way to mount a hardshell RTT on a short bed at the moment

    Grant - After 4 days remote camping at OBX this is on my short list. Looking at your build, it looks like you're running a single battery, yeah? What kind of accessory run times you're able to get out of this battery (and still start your truck)? I have a 12v cold box I use, but it'll only run for about 9 hours before my 11v cut off switch turns it off. Even then I have to get my jumper box out to start the truck. Thanks!

    I got about 50 hours on the battery with a 60l fridge, phone and speaker constantly charging, LEDs on the swingout table all night. Only one battery

    Looks good bro.
    How was the wiring during your air horn install?
    Simple as splicing to existing harness?

    Both add a leafs are in the Dakar packs. New U bolts (too wide, gotta get some other ones. Ill grab when i go to OK4wd next week) and driver side air bag thrown in there. Ran out of time, and one of the air fittings are wrong on the bag so gotta make a stop by the fittings store.

    Install was pretty straight forward, not too bad.
