I got my Expedition Essentials T4RPAM installed today. It made me realize how much I suck at installing sh** like this. Thing ended up crooked so I had to drill new holes. I live by the old adage measure once, drill twice. (WTF?!?) Lost two nylocks forcing me to drive to home depot with my dash torn apart to buy replacements. I should have just joined my neighbors that started drinking at 6:30 this morning!

Any difference in performance?
I actually haven’t driven it around yet. When I was done it was time to help for dinner lol. But I can tell it sounds better standing in front of the engine bay, as if I can her the air induction going into engine better (more air flow) which the product does claim. From the back the exhaust has more of a nice rumble. Baram baram baram. I don’t have any planned to the trips to the store cause my wife went to Costco yesterday. Probably won’t leave the house for another week lol.

No pics yet. Too busy and too hot!
Installed and re-fabricated some new step rails. The manufacturer simply did not get the welds right in their fixture. Both rails in two different places were off by 3/64". Have a friend who has a friend... at Rev Limit Customs. Brought them in, test fit, cut, grind, massage and wala! Got them installed.
Spare tire finally showed up yesterday and new spare wheel arrived this morning.
Snorkel is next and I am nearing completion. But are they ever really complete?

Built a wooden platform to ease storage & access to 10 gallons of H2O in 4 x 2.5 gallon cans. Used 3M spray adhesive and a staple gun to cover the wood with indoor/outdoor carpet (the darker color was oos).

Drilled and mounted a Yakima Megawarrior rack on the Yakima rail system:

First trip carrying traction boards, toilet, and a 3 gallon Rotopax on the other side of the boards. Also installed a Hothead roof liner. Modified the Hothead by drilling 2” holes in the backing to fit around the Yakima knob nuts.
