    Ya know, it has it's upsides. the downside is settling of those jackstands and not having anything solid (without bringing a board over, aint nobody got time for that) to jack off of.

    Hey Ben what all do you have available at GTF for a quick 30 minutes switch install lol, got a new one on the way, should be here in a few days. Also how long/ how much would it be to have you guys remove the 3rd leaf in the dakar pack to lose some height in the rear? Those wheels look sick btw!

    This will be the first winter with appropriate pressures in them, so we'll see. I have access to nitrogen if need be but they did fine last year without adding to them

    A few additions being made to the truck in the near future. Five Q-Series for the roof rack forward facing, the arrangement being the same as seen here; from right to left: Driving, Spot, Hyperspot, Spot, Driving. This combination creates an enormous cone of light with the furthest point being the center of the Hyperspot at about 3/4 of a mile.

    Next I've added six of these 1x2 scene lights to the sides and rear of the same rack, providing camp lights and lighting for the bed of the truck and behind it. They produce about 1100 lumens a piece in this small package. Perfect for my application with such a huge spread.

    On the power end of things obviously I've had to make some upgrades so I went ahead and purchased this high output alternator from DCPower, which at idle puts out 187 amps to my battery. Should be AMPle amounts of power.

    And to clean up the install I still have Skygears 40 slot alternate fuse/breaker box to install as well as this welcome addition from my brother for Christmas

    I'm not sure if the switches I got ever made it into here but here they are.

    I think I'm going to add some more so that all the Q-Series are wired individually and have a few more by the shifter like @Whitecloud has done. I like that placement the best. Pretty excited to get all this done so I can finally put my interior back together. I went from a million cup holders to zero and have been carrying a beverage like a chump for months.
