What did you do to your full size rig today?

I’ve seen the term rock lights before, but don’t understand what the use is?
Well if your out on the trail and it gets dark, the lights will light up under your vehicle to allow you/or spotter to see if you have anything that may hit your underside. Also gives you a little ambient light around your vehicle that is not in your face...

I love it, what rack is that? I have a 1990 Suburban and have not found a rack, so I made my own.
What else have you done to the truck?
I also made my own cargo rack. I have my high lift attached to the other side and my rack service as my spare tire holder. I have a false bed plat for that hinges at my back seat. It sites about 7” tall and I store all my totes for food and kitchen in them. I have more work to do on my camp kitcheN setup. On the interior I installed a dash can and re upholstered the seat and installed heated seat warmers. My rig used to be the old 6.2 diesel but I have since swapped it out for a 12v Cummins and Allison 1000 convention.

Ah, the spotter makes sense!

I would love to see more. I like what you have done with the platform. I am working on the same thing. I have 3 sheet of plywood in the back right now and I have a loose plan.
My current rack in made out of Structural steel pipe and fittings. I like it because I can just go to Lowe's and get more parts to add to it as I need to. They have a lot of stuff that fits it. Very modular so I can change it as I need to.
I just have the stock TBI 350 and THM400. A CTD swap in only a pipe dream for me right now. Awesome that you were able to do yours, it looks great.
Any more pictures you want to share would be great as I figure out where I am going with my build.

Cleaned the engine bay a little. Before it was all dusty with a bunch of leaves. Got the air blower out and engine degreaser.
