    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Cracked my passenger side mirror against one of my quaking aspen while backing my truck-bed trailer in... Silver lining I wanted to put tow mirrors on anyway, so that will be an upcoming change.

    Just a quick funny story...I was walking out of the local Wal-Mart the other day right behind a family with 4 kids (all certainly under 10--welcome to Utah). the rug in the entrance rolled up under their cart, so I help the mother straighten it back out and we continued into the parking lot...

    "CHUCK" 1998 Chevy Suburban K2500 Build

    Rear lights mounted in the bumper. it was too cold to hit the bumper with bed liner, and I got impatient. I'll hit it as it warms up so it's blacked out like the front.

    "CHUCK" 1998 Chevy Suburban K2500 Build

    Pulled the CD player to mount switches for lights. And I cut the "wings" off the grille guard I had picked up at the tear-a-part, fabbed some "custom" brackets out of 3/16" bar steel (meaning I cut it, whacked it with a big hammer, drilled out holes) and mounted it with grade 8 1/2" bolts and...

    I see that you're in law enforcement, just wanted to say thanks for serving. I know you don't get a lot of love these days. PS--any time I see Glock I think of this from the movie Sabotage, because the company I work for has made the Glock lanyards for years:

    "CHUCK" 1998 Chevy Suburban K2500 Build

    Couple updates: got my "isolated" dual battery system in. Luckily there was an existing tray unused (it's there for the diesel option) so that made it easy. Now running wiring for a couple flood lights up front, light bar in the roof and additional reverse lights. Removed the CD player to...

    "CHUCK" 1998 Chevy Suburban K2500 Build

    Last couple days I got a new used grille in a little better shape than my own. Used chunks of the old grille melted in acetone to fix some cracks and hit it with bed liner. Also dropped the front bumper (which involved one bolt that wouldn't budge so hit it with WD-40 then liquid wrench and...
