I’ll be brief, I didn’t need two pickup trucks and a Land Cruiser. But I sold it for a very good deal to my wife’s brother who loves the truck and parks it in a garage and isn’t driving it in the winter. It’s an upgrade for that vehicle. Besides I need room for future bad decisions like...

Finally ordered some White Knuckle Offroad sliders. It's almost ready to take my rig to Starbucks Utah.

Locker issue maybe solved? Looks like I installed the solenoids backwards. My push fit 6mm fittings should be in position #2. Just got that all sorted out. Will test out tomorrow! It took a bit of work to access, but I’m happy to report it was possible to get the manifold off with the QPM...

Odd Locker Behavior I just returned from a post panhard bracket install errand to buy some oil and in the driveway I fired up my air compressor. Oddly it engaged my locker—I believe it was my front one. I then engaged both lockers with my dual switch and then turned them off. I rolled back...

@rannon Final photos of my QPM setup as requested: I tried to keep room for one more large accessory in an effort to future proof. This is my 12v for camping lights, and my OBA chuck. Pretty simple. I’ll probably put a usb outlet and possibly add a volt meter to the back of if I find I...

Delta VS Panhard Bracket Installed the DVS panhard bracket this afternoon. I’m had to purchase a 24mm and a 27mm box wrench, and a 27mm socket to get after this. I also made use of a brass drift, a small hammer, and a large alignment bar. It went pretty well, though it took some time to get...

Thanks boss. I would say gains have been modest. I’m not expecting miracles, my dobinson’s make this truck feel tippy in the turns. I’m eager to get my Delta bracket bling bolted in then get the rig into a shop for an alignment and see if that helps too. Last time I had it aligned was when I...

New Bits I just purchased and installed a Whiteline heavy duty rear sway bar. It was easy, though my greasy bushings were hilariously annoying to install. As others on the forum have noted the Whiteline rear sway bar is a bit beefier than the stock bar. My initial impressions are it makes a...

I like it back there too. However, I noticed that my sliding window seal lets in a drip of water when it's wet. It drips on the compressor, but not the radio. Getting new window seals is in the cards for me apparently. The other thing that is a "gotacha" is making sure that your radio...

Currently a single battery system. One big 2 gauge wire powers the QPM. It's fused with a blue sea terminal block at my battery and distributed at the QPM with a positive buss. From the buss I have three circuits. One circuit is my ARB dual compressor, the other two are to my bluesea fuse...

Winter Is Over-Time for an update I am happy to report that I finally finished up all the electrical loose ends and closed up my QPM. This means I now have: Onboard Air.--My chuck is mounted to the dead panel on my drawers Functioning Air Lockers Additional 12v outlets--(for passenger...

Just checked my invoice: 2 reef kit with wings, upgraded support bars, locking drawers, and a pair of dividers was $982. Plus $150 to ship. Total of $1,102.00.

Close enough Well, I double checked my work, caught an error on how I configured a splice and ground, added a diode from the original harness and now I have my issue mostly solved. The locker lights are not not illuminated unless i turn the locker switch dial. however the front locker light...

FFS, me too.

A clue I think I found my issue with the dash lights. I cut the ARB harness apart to modify it for the factory switch system. I remembered that there were diodes in the system, and guess what? They are in the section of the harness for the dash lights. I ran into a thread about wiring the...
