What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

[Homeguy]

Rotated my tires, replaced a bad speed sensor, greased up the entire Jeep and put Lube Lockers in my front and rear diff.

Lifted! 2" front and rear. Nothing too fancy, just a spacer, diff and sway bar drop for the front, and rear blocks and shock extenders.

Made a kydex pocket today for the driver side. Still have to do one for the passenger side. It was kind of a pain in the ass, but it was my first time working with the stuff. Hopefully the other side looks better. [emoji120] View attachment 50470

Took the rig and my gf out for a little spin through some tracks and a nice walk through the forest after that. Was good fun!

Drove to Primm with my wife to watch a buddy compete in the Mint 400.

Only 4 vehicles in his class, he took second with third and fourth as DNFs. He was leading lap 1 and pitted well for lap 2.

Two flats and a broken front caliper dropped him back to second. Track fix for the bad caliper was removing it, pinching the brake line with a pair of vice grips and duct taping them to the frame.

One of the benefits of having a chef on the race team is carne asada while watching Trophy Trucks coming through the pits.

View attachment 50719 View attachment 50720 View attachment 50524 I finally got my Cobra 75 WX ST CB installed! It took a few hours and finding a mounting point for the controller took a bit of work but I found an nice out of the way spot behind the glovebox. I was nervous to take apart the dash to tap into my lighter plug for power but it ended up being pretty straightforward. I routed the antenna cable along my roll bar, tucking it inside the roll bar padding so it can't be seen. I was concentrating on the install so I didn't get many pictures but here is the finished product!View attachment 50524

Installed the wires to the MPPT for my Solar Panel and connection to the battery. Velcro'd an inexpensive (cheap by any other name) to the metal strapping around the battery. This way it gives dust protection and doesn't allow the cables to hang loose. I am soooo ready to test it out.

How big is that mppt controller? I have a renogy river 40a, but its huge, I have been eyeballing these because they look compact and you can get the bluetooth adapter for them. The renogy rover one is like 10 x 8 inches and like 3 inches deep. I am still waiting on a panel to mount it on, so i am trying to condense the gear I stick in there if possible.
