    Speaking of which did you build your whole grill?

    My grille is a Rigid Industries. All I did was cut out the old one and put in the new one. Well and as much bending/shaping as I could. The damn thing came flat.

    Also how well do your seat heaters work man? Didn't realize they were only $89 worth it?

    It's got little screws holding it to the grille surround. And the heated seats totally worth it.

    Got the TREDS mounted this morning. Ended up using a bungee cord and a bolt to hold them under the tool box. I originally wanted to mount to the front of the tool box but there wasn't enough room. Also made a steel cable to lock them to the bed. I'll post pictures in a bit.

    First pic of the TREDs mounted under the tool box.

    And once the bed basket is on.

    I'm going to sell the TRED mounts if some one wants them. I ended up using a bungee cord to secure them along with a custom aircraft cable and lock. It was going to be a major pain in the ass to remove and replace when needed to use the mounts.

    I'll take them off your hands. I preordered the new tred pros coming out and I wanted to make sure these would work. The website says they will. Ill PM you for price, shipping, etc.

    I think the TRED pros have a different mount, but If your sure they will work they are yours.

    Yeah, there is a new mount, but they made the pros to work with the older mounts as well.

    Got a tiny bit of off roading in today with a buddy of mine. All the trails were closed and thought we found an open one only to discover that one was closed as well about a half mile in. Oh well beer drinking time!:cheers:

    I'm looking to upgrade my battery soon. Will be adding a winch and don't really want to fool with a dual setup. I've also got the ARB twin compressor as the other power hungry item, it's kept powered off till needed. Any suggestions?
