Second battery tray. Chop and chop and chop until it finally fit. Although only got three bolts in, should be able to hold fine.

Does anyone have a shovel/axe carrier on their rack? I'm looking for one to carry both a shovel and an axe but have no idea which one to get. Input?

Thinking of using Quickfists. Anyone doing this, have feedback? I wonder how they hold up to the elements.
We saw that rig a few months ago on the Navajo Reservation, that bike strapped to the back of it really stood out. Nice setup!
Turf-N-Surf. Good trip, and the truck did great.
A few minor mechanicals, such as a squeaky throwout bearing, which seems to have settled now after a slight adjustment to the slave cylinder, need to replace the plunger and contacts on the starter (intermittent no start), and had to clean out my washer reservoir and pump as they were filled with algae and clogged...which meant hand washing the windshield to see, ugh.
Enjoyed the trip to Pozo, which was quite fun testing out the Diesel on the steep and deep ruts. 1st gear and in hi-range and it did not shrug one bit. Have some GoPro video I need to process which should be pretty cool.

Enjoyed another glorious fall day in the Bighorns.
.......and then I scratched it.
Blind corner, suddenly ice, and away we went. 3-4 rolls and ~45ft later and there we sat.
Walked away with a minor headache. Seatbelts are a VERY good thing. That and these things being built like tanks saved my bacon for sure.
Will start another thread seeking advice as to where to go from here. Neither the liftgate nor the tailgate have a scratch on 'em so maybe we'll start there.

Rig can be replaced, lives aren't. Glad you walked out of it.
Mostly finished my second battery install then I noticed this on my main battery. the moisture is coming up from the cells and the corrosion (or whatever) wasn't there last week. is this battery on its way out ?
Glad to hear you're OK, "another fall day" just took on a whole new meaning.Enjoyed another glorious fall day in the Bighorns.

Glad you are alright! She doesnt look too bad, just chop it and cage it now! Glad you are ok, I had a similar circumstance but only rolled once in August with my poor 60, seatbelts and LCs save lives man. My 60 is nowhere close to fixable compared to yours though.
Just a little teaser of my weekend..Pigs do fly! I surprisingly didn't break anything with 3 hours of launching my new rig but power steering fade was a constant issue on Saturday. Time to add an intercooler. I also got 3.6mpg for a full day of wheeling the dunes, went 73 miles on 20 gallons of gas
