Had some time Saturday to weld up some gas can straps with locks. Nothing heavy duty more of a deterant than anything. Locks are twist.

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
Kemper are you running a dual battery setup or did you just replace the stock battery?

Running single battery at the moment for the truck and I have a another battery the the solar panel runs. Both battery's run separate.
If you don't mind me asking where did you mount the second battery?

I keep it in the back seat area. My seats left up and these platforms fold out. Battery is in a container with the Solar controller on the outside of it. Fridge and battery ride inside with me. I'll get you a pic

Off-Road Ranger I
Sorry I was on vacation in Europe. Pretty much finished with the build. Took the rig up to the high Sierras and she did well. Even went through a pretty intense rock garden with out issue. Heres a pick loaded down with the rooftop tent and Kayak.
Also modified the rack a bit. I cut it down a bit so the tent didnt ride so high. Also now the high lift is mounted on one side and the Ax and shovel are on the other.
Awesome build and great looking RAM, we have the same color as well which we love. The wheels you have on your RAM are they factory and what size ?
Holds up pretty good. Ive had the truck off road quite a bit and it only seems to come off on the edge of the rim from rubbing up against brush or rocks. I just give it a fresh coat after a trip and they look brand new again. Best bang for the buck.
Paint them on the truck. Put a Tshirt over the calipers and get a piece of thin card board the fits between rim and tire. Easy to spray

Love plasti dip. I used to have it on old rims and held up great. I put it on my sisters commuter car and she keeps taking it off by hitting curbs. But it is always easy to put it back on.
