What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

Wonderful... Kind of tired of the snow though, itching for spring..! We're having a meetup next weekend.. camping and playing on the dunes/rock crawling.. same area as the 4x4 Jamboree.. check the Rocky Mountain Rally Points for details

Very cool, can’t to come back out and play!
 
I installed the Midland MTX115 GMRS radio this morning. The hardest part was figuring out how I wanted to mount the magnetic base antenna and get the huge connector through the lower dash without taking the center console apart. The radio unit is small so it left me with plenty of room to access the OEM cigarrete lighter and USB port. I ran the antenna wire through the bottom of the 3rd brake light in hope of reducing the chance of water leaking into the cab. I plan on replacing the tiny antenna with the taller Midland +6db antenna. I purchased the bundle package which includes 2 hand held radios as well. https://midlandusa.com/product/ormxt115vp-micromobile-gxt-bundle/

I'll tuck the red wires away later. I pinched my neck climbing around in the footwell...

Drilled a hole through the back and fished the antenna wire through. I will tuck the power cable back through the hole to hide the excess. When I sell the truck I'll just plug the hole with a rubber plug.

How heavy are those beasts?

They’re heavier than my old SR5 wheel! 50lbs ea, but don’t think I’m gonna be bending these.
 
Safety pressure valve started going bad on my ARB twin compressor so I replaced the head assembly. Had to dismantle most of the compressor to do it. Found a few screws that had fallen out... I used locktite to put it back together. Just something other might want to check on every once in a while.
