    Thank you for the rundown! That’s a pretty awesome use of the truck. The last shot shows a house, it kind of looks like it might be one of the straw bale houses.

    Replaced battery (flooded lead-acid 27F, dated 4/2018) with X2 Power 27F AGM last week (thanks to @crashburn80 for the education), and finally put in the HKB fixed voltage booster today (monitoring with BM2 bluetooth monitor). All is good so far. Curious to see how much the headlights get a boost from the adapter.

    While I built it myself, credit to Torspd for the basis of the idea. He posted on this thread sometime ago. I just took it in my own direction. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/engine-oil-cooler.546267/

    if you want more info on the set up I am happy to share.

    I would assume so since that’s where ACEktraut’s brackets go.

    I replaced the draincock on my compressor tank and upgraded the valve head to a clamp on for easier air ups. I also replaced the Dometic fridge plug in with a regular 12V, so now I am running two 12V in the cab, as I sold my dometic a couple years ago.

    Yesterday I ordered a Super Pacific Camper in blue with a tan tent and the new Truma Varioheat propane heating system they are now offering on their builds. It's gonna be siiick.

    You gotta be F-in kidding.....

    You know how many people on here, including me lol, ordered the aftermarket for somewhere near $120. Now granted that comes with a passenger side too, but....that addition isn't worth $90, IMO.

    Good find!!

    Does the "blue illumination" work with our wiring? Just curious...again, not worth the extra $90. Good upgrade either way.
