Aren't you glad you joined this site?

$95 CTEK - 40-206 MXS 5.0 Fully Automatic 4.3 amp Battery Charger and Maintainer 12V

https://www.amazon.ca/CTEK-40-206-5-0-12-Battery-Charger/dp/B00CD44RQO/

I bought mine years ago at Princess Auto in the surplus section. Figured if CTek is good enough for Porsche to rebrand it as a genuine accessory, it's good enough for my truck. The unit itself is waterproof and weather-hardened. I mounted mine on the wall inside a plain plastic case, for wire management and theft deterrence:

 

Can you stop in Brampton and put my recycling out for me?

Greatly appreciated

Luv, me

 

Same for my IROC, and other toys

 

Sure!...

 

Oh wow. Just read post #1 for the first time.

Your life will change.

 

There is a buy and sell sub forum here:

Might find something there.

 

Wasn't @Norilsk trying to sell his SCS wheels so he can go to 43s?

 

There is no wheels that are for sale for 43s stuck with 35s till better times and supplies.

 

Anyone have an oem spare tire carrier? (under the box winch) looking to purchase

 

If you want an idea of Porsche's accessory markups:

$192 Porsche Battery Maintainer 958-044-901-71

It'll be funny if it has a Euro plug with two round prongs, requiring another adapter. Porsche owners will probably like that "feature".

 

Got to meet @TacooSaucee this morning at the undercoating place

His taco is so sexy and new, unlike mine all used and beat up lol

Undercoating tech 'You have not 1 spot or spec of rust on that truck, pretty amazing tbh'
Undercoating tech 'Wait no, that bumper on the front has 2 spots of rust'

Previous owner of used ARB did not space his fenders out from the bumper so they rubbed the paint off in 2 places on the bumper.



Ready for winter wheeling

 

Nice meeting a TW member finally, the rig is a different kind of nice.

Just got finished up and look like I'll have to do some washing to take that stuff take off the paint later

 

Yea man it was nice chatting with you, and finding out you know Janne is even better

I have never worried about it, I am sure if you bug him next year he will be more careful with over spray.

They have always done exactly what I want.

 

Oh yeah, because they are only driven once a month so they can be sold later for a higher price...

 

What kind of undercoating and cost did you guys get?

 

Corrosion Free undercoating.

I pay all the money and get the $149 package, on both my vehicles. Then I go in the back and 'have to go to the bathroom' and stuff money in the tech's pocket (tip) while he is working on my truck. They seem to remember you when this happens. Not many people tip the undercoating guy I am told

They do a wonderful job of fully coating my ARB bumper inside and out.

So far it has done an awesome job on my rig, but I am pretty crazy about re-applying it.

 

Not a real big deal, I'd rather him do it correctly and clean a bit of mess than have a rusty truck.

He told me not to wash it for 48 hours, but I met him in the middle and I'm washing it waterlessly. I'll use a whole bottle if I have to.

Also thanks for getting me to lower that spare!!!

 

Now you know how to get your spare down, and it is undercoated all up in there

When you put the spare back up, it goes with the valve stem pointing up towards the bed

 

I paid $180.79 (after taxes) for the full shabang as @llamasmurf convinced me to...

Next year I'll go to the lower package.
