What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?
- Thread starter iamout
- Start date
Finally got around to some general maintenance. Adjusted the valves, gapped my spark plugs and points, set the timing and bled my clutch. She still runs like a champ. Plan on going out for some fun this weekend

Finally got my CB mounted. Now it doesn't have to sit under the seat all the time. Now it's time for a better antenna mounting system...
Got up early and decided to start the rear bumper project. No more fangs! [emoji4]
Pathfinder I
I finally got around to extending the wire harness for my hood mounted ditch lights. The harness wasn't long enough to tuck under the cowl and reach the passenger side light. I had it run against the firewall and ziptied to the AC lines which looked janky. I didn't wire loom or heat shrink large enought to fit 2 14ga wires so I twisted them together like we used to do for complicated car alarm installs. It came out nice and clean although you'll never see it under the cowl. :)
Before
After
I decided to mount the Arkon tablet arm to the transmission tunnel. I didn't feel like modifying the passenger seat bracket to try and make a mount. Once I get the bar shaped the way I want I will try to stiffen it up by adding another length of metal inside the loom and then pin it to point higher up on the console with a clamp. It's currently very sturdy but the tablet wobbles a lot if that make sense.

Picked up a small shovel, hi-lift jack base and a shovel/axe mount. Mount is Smittybilt so it bolted right up to the Smittybilt basket, with some slight trimming of the brackets. Picked up some stainless hardware and mounted the base to the basket as well.

I changed my tire after blowing it out romping through the hills near my place. I did a bit more damage than I initially thought... totally worth it though!
