That looks great! Send the links over, I need this for my rhino rack.

Rigidhorse 42 Inch LED Light Bar... Amazon product ASIN B07MCNYV6P

LED Light Bar Bracket to suit Rhino Rack Platform V2.0

LED Light Bar mounts to suit the new and old style Rhino Rack Platform up to 2023. Registered Design 202012672

Yes, I paid more for the brackets than the light in fact the light seems to go on sale even cheaper often.

Best idea ever!

After seeing it, it's obvious. It's simple. Why didn't I think of that? The best place to keep a head light.

I wish I could say it was my idea, but I saw it somewhere. Unfortunately, for me anyway, it does nothing to solve for the inevitable "where the F is my headlamp?" question. Always takes me a few minutes to remember its right where I put it. As they say, no matter what you are looking for, you will always find it in the last place you look.

Where was this drive done? Need dets!

First one is the Burr trail switchbacks. Second probably Waterpocket Fold?

Correct on the Burr Trail switchbacks. Basically, Blanding, UT to Kanab and back again. Through Bears Ears NM, over the Henrys, into Grand Staircase-Escalante NM. The snowy pic is near Roswell, NM on my way back.

do you get any rubbing on these?

 

[BackroadTrail]

I added a second battery to our 200 using the Slee Offroad kit and a RedArc charger. I wrote a post with the materials and pictures of the install.

I did (edit: almost) exactly the same thing: What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

Are you planning a solar hookup?

 

[kbohtx]

None whatsoever.

Based on your sig, it looks like stock suspension/no coil spacers?

 

[raoulduke101]

Correct. The suspension is 100% stock at the moment. I'm hoping to get some new coil springs/struts soon. Thinking of OME.

Excellent, thank you!

Not sure yet, may add that to the travel trailer or the TLC. Depends on how we settle in using them.

Spent 11 hours today with my mechanic buddy redoing all of my wiring to the roof, running through that Ford grommet that @Eric Sarjeant has posted about (works great, thanks Eric), adding disconnects, running through a protective loom etc. Also tracked down the leak that was soaking my B-Pillar, it was the roof rack mounts. The yellow sleeve around the bolt had disintegrated, so we built up some Grey RTV to duplicate the function then resealed the entire Rhino Backbone system also using the Grey RTV. Rewired my switches for the compressor and light bar as well as moved all of the accessory wiring running from the Blue Sea fuse block mounted to the forward face of the drawers into looms and under the carpet and behind panels so it is all protected and out of sight. Basically a ton of effort to improve upon the s***ty work I did to get everything working for LCDC in a hurry. Also added a Factor 55 FlatLink 2.0 to the hidden winch and mounted up the Maxtrax on the Rhino Rack side mount with the Maxtrax pins. Its all VERY secure and doesn't rattle at all.

I'll add a few pics tomorrow.

Will look forward to photo details on this! Would love to avoid mistakes as I consider some wire stuff up top.

With pics, it deserves its own thread.

Just added 285/70 Ridge Grapplers and 1" Bora spacers (effective offset +25).

Dropped the skids, cleaned the frame and skids to remove all the mud from wheeling. Makes me wish I got the stainless steel skids with the amount I beat em up.. greased the DS and UCA as well.

Also a pic of how bashed the gas tank skid is.

Nice looking rig! What is that I spy in the garage with the coil spring rear suspension?
