Well, after doing all of this in July preparing for my annual Montana trip in the 80. My AC compressor decided to give up the ghost and ended up getting the dreaded "black death" in the entire system. Worked like hell to replace the compressor, condenser, dryer, whatever valve thats connected to...

Finally got everything buttoned up & installed! 200W Roof Mounted Solar system with a Renogy ShadowFlux running to a solar charge controller in my rear QPM (courtesy of DVS), wired directly up to my 2nd battery for some static charging capacity, with a separate line from the 2nd battery to the...

Also, the daily 200 Series hit 200k miles on the way home from Overland Expo, so that's neat

Been a busy few weeks for me and the 80! What started off as a "quick upgrade" became an absolute rabbit hole. Ended up doing the 150Amp alternator modification with the Photoman bracket & Delta Vehicle Systems kit and in the process of that ended up replacing my radiator, fan shroud...

Had to work it a little but it opens and closes just fine now! Its just not perfectly weather sealed anymore. Thankfully it doesn't rain more around here! You probably could hammer some of it out, but it adds character 😉

Sadly, I've done the same thing... with the lift gate open...

Even though I can't even see it from the driver seat, my OCD would not allow it to go untrimmed 😂
