What he said!

What wheels ya running?

 

I’d love to but the brackets on these are broken. Maybe worth repairing but then I wouldn’t have any headlights and I’m not sure if the adjuster would like that!

Stock TRD sport wheels. Original tires too.

 

sorry to hear man, glad you are ok

 

yeah it is garbage, people going too fast, people going to slow, semis passing at 32 mph...

 

The adjuster wouldn't know, your truck is a 17, those are not 17 headlights.

 

You found my grill!
J/K Wasn't me.
Kidding aside that really sucks. Glad no one needed medical transport.
Truck looks totaled.

 

Nobody knows a glass guy?

 

Watched ep 3 Friday night. Not happy and see what you mean. Im not sure what Rodriguez is smoking. I can see why machete is there but this episode did not deliver anything good outside of neutering wookies and bounty hunters.

 

I use Scottsdale Auto Glass and they do a great job on install but I don’t know if they do tint work. They have replaced my windshield 3 times on this truck in just a few years an are always great. https://scottsdaleautoglass.com/

 

Another two nights in the ACCC. Onboard power wired up and fully functioning this time around. Holy cow is that a convenient system to have! Lights and power ports all over. Being able to use electricity as you would in your house is exciting to me. Super windy outside, so spent most of the time at camp actually inside of the camper. No complaints, only smiles. Lightyears beyond my old setup of bedrack and soft shell rtt, operating out of a dirty/dusty bed.

Nice man! I can't wait to have house power for the same reasons.. just the convenience and worry free feeling. Glad you're knocking stuff out! I'm trying to stay motivated as well. I need to order the last of my stuff.. but it's getting there. I did temporarily set up my 12v water yesterday after finishing up the rear bumper accessories like the tables and Jerry can mounts. I wired up a Blue Sea 12v plug with some length of wire to use it with our power pack for the time being. Wanted to test it all out as well before committing to a mounting location, hose runs, etc. Should work great for KOH in a couple weeks.

 

Thank you. Your setup is awesome, I really dig the rear end.

Just ordered a switch for my water pump, so when that arrives I can wire that system and begin carrying water in the tank, as opposed to carrying around jugs. I'll have that done and tested this week.

Need my solar panels and then my fridge and I'll be more content with the setup.

But, tonight I get to go and grab a bunch of goodies (suspensions, UCA's, bumper, winch), so I'll have to balance these small tasks alongside getting this thing lifted and rolling around on 33's!

 

Yup. Terrible. Worst chase scene I've ever seen. Stupid kids riding new age Vespas. But it's expected since it's Disney.

 

I can’t wait to be done with my front bumper project so I can get started on my electrical.
I’m going to move my heavy ass 27F AGM to my passenger side up against the firewall as a house battery and replace my starter battery with a Group 35 AGM that is smaller and lighter. My 27F is about 70# and I worry about cracking my driver side inner fender with 30# extra that forward with all that leverage on it. Should not be such an issue on the other side and further back since it will put less leverage on that side’s inner fender. Some day I’ll get those beefy JD Fab inner fenders but until then I want to try and keep my stock ones in one piece.
I’ve been looking at Lithium but they don’t seem to be ready yet to handle the heat. Just not sure how they will survive the summers here under the hood. I’ll be sticking to AGM for now.

 

Agreed. I'll be doing the exact same with the OGE Redarc kit and sticking with AGM.

 

The OGE Redarc kit is worth every penny...

 

I’ll check out the Redarc stuff. Heard good things.

 

Is this near greer?

 

Nope, its Mt. Wrightson

 

Never been to this area it looks awesome. It reminded me of a spot up in greer near some cross country skiing trails.
