[Artie]

Slab poured for the new stable. Wife claimed the garage a long time ago. It’s about time these girls get a roof over their head.

This project is on our dream list. We had started getting quotes for the detached garage but the lumber prices were too crazy so we decided our big yearly project would be painting the exterior of the house instead… so lame in comparison but there’s always next year.

Yes. We have been in this house for almost 15 years and I have wanted this since day 1. Living on a hill makes any kind of building expensive, but we finally bit the bullet. I'm waiting on lumber to fall a bit more before we build the garage. They are predicting significant decreases over the next year. In the meantime, we have a great parking spot.

Lots of action this week.

Maybe need a 2X6 flat next to the those tire-eaters in the concrete?

Welp, took advantage of the Ironman 4x4 sale and snagged their premium Bumper. I managed to smash my stock bumper up this past weekend in the Ozarks.

Diff swap on my 16. KDSS swaybar had to be moved out of the way.

I hear the lumber mills have acres and acres of product ready to go, they just don't want to release it so they can sell more at the inflated price as long as they can. I also live on a mountainside. It has it's benefits, but it's a pain when you want to build something.

Something tells me that might have been on purpose

I upgraded the starting battery in the 200 with the Slee Offroad tray kit and an Interstate 31P-AGM7. materials and pictures

How's the AGM holding up? I want to go AGM but have heard about the charging issues

 

[BackroadTrail]

It is working fine so far. I added the diode in place of the sense-line fuse to increase the charging voltage. I also have a voltage/USB plug in the 12V socket in the dash to keep an eye on it. Depending on the temperature, etc it varies from the high 13s to low 14s. You can see the details here: Super-Sized Starting Battery - https://backroadtrail.com/blog/super-sized-starting-battery/

Where did you get your carpet from?

Where did you get your carpet from?

Home depot. Indoor/outdoor carpet. About $4.50 a square yard.

I looked there. Maybe because that is Black. I got a sample of the grey but it looks textured, with light ribs running the length of it.

Yeah, they had the grey too and that is what I saw previously used for this. Home depot is not great with stock. Lowes didn't have anything. The first Depot I went to didn't have the black, but another did. It's the same manufacturer and they were right next to each other.

The black is also not as ribbed looking as that grey is. More uniform. But I imagine the grey hides the staples better.

Still, I am happier with the color match on the black than I ever would have been with the grey.

 

[TXMeatball]

Washed and sealed again. Applied this stuff (soft99 fusso) back in october and was surprised at how long it lasted. 8 months isn't bad for a vehicle that sits outside 100% of the time in south texas sun.

Installed harrops with 4.30 gears into my 16' and wired them to my bantam X touchscreen

Do you have a separate safety switch for your lockers to ensure there isn't an unintentional activation of a locker?

A switch to prevent me from switching on my lockers? No

Stopped it from burning to the ground at a gas station...switchpros panel under hood went freaking bonkers...small arcing and enough smoke from under the hood to cause the guy next to me to haul ass from the pump with the nozzle still in his tank...I got it shut down and disconnected from post on switch pros...wires so hot I had to use a tool to break it loose...only then did anything connected to switch pros turn off...end result...saved truck without damage to Toyota systems but, but she went to the shop...horrible Pic but I was not thinking about framing.
