What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

[roots66]

Got rear-ended....again. This time, the trailer took the hit.

Body shop estimate is $6.

Good thing it wasn't a couple years ago or it would have been hundreds.

I added a Propex propane exchange heater for my roof top tent. I used two Fat 50cal ammo cans, cut the bottoms off, extended them with sheet metal and mounted them between my rack and rear window of my cab. I purposefully left room there when I set up my rack. The heater is mounted inside and the hosing is all attached and ready to extend up to the window.

I wired up power from my truck and the control panel is mounted to a project box and lives in the tent. I picked up a window tent pass-through off Etsy and we are warm all night long up here at the top of the USA!

What ducting do you use? It looks a lot better than what I currently have. Have you noticed any sort of hot plastic smell? If you could provide a link to where you got it, I'd really appreciate it.

Huh. That's the same one I have. Maybe I just have a bad one, and need to get another..

Do you have a diesel heater? The heated air from my Propex doesn’t get as hot as a diesel heater’s air so that may be a factor

New pillar pod lights.
Plan on doing all morimoto lights.
Fogs and headlights next. The stock leds are good though, so on the fence still.

Bumper lights

Installed some Bilstein 4600 shocks. Very happy with the ride quality.

I do. It's a 5kw model. There was a plan to put a 2kw model in the new trailer, but I may just stick with the 5kw model and route it through the windows.

I typically have to run mine on high during the southern Idaho winters, but it keeps my tent plenty warm. The insulated trailer will probably help that a bit.

Went back to the future.

Mounted a roof rack last weekend.

 

[Cypress]

Truck slide installed. Nobody makes one for a H3T. One for a Jeep Gladiator was close enough.

 

[laylow]

No pictures yet, but I mounted and installed amateur, gmrs, and meshstatic radios and antennas.

 

[outside]

Sounds technical.
What kind of equipment you using?

 

[laylow]

GMRS Radio
Amateur Radio
Meshtastic node

For those interested, Meshtastic is a license-free, long range, decentralized, off-grid mesh radio network.

More paint and dent removal. I hate paint and body crap. LOL
