New wheels and tires on. I went with 285/70/17 BFG KO2s on AlphaEquipt Command wheels with a +35 offset. I had to remove the intrusion/crash bars. I replaced them with the ReadyLift intrusion beams. They are thinner than stock but have strengthened ridges so by theory may be stronger. Hopefully...

Finally got the Yaesu Ftm400 in the truck a few months ago. I punched through the rubber surrounding the wire loom behind the break pedal. For the handset I opted to try using a Niteize Steelie ball which I highly recommend. For the head unit just have it in the Ram X

Looks like there is a way but you will need the Expedition Tier of the app. https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/downloading-offline-maps.39486/

You bring up good points here. I think one thing that is overlooked a lot when starting out is recovery. It is easy to get lost in all the cool gear that makes getting to those sweet spots more enjoyable or the IG pics but a lot of people starting out don't even have a shovel or recovery...

I use a ibolt mount for my tablet. Not a huge fan of it and will probably get a ram x. It tends to slide on bouncier trails and when I tighten it to the tablet it will press the buttons down too hard and sometimes shut it off.

I'm not a developer but do work in IT. It looks like the map works with Google geocoding which uses a API to access google geocoordinates via their cloud. Now if there is someway to save that information returned from the OB1 to a google map I don't know but as of right now it doesn't look like...

Welcome

I would be interested

This sounds like an amazing trip.

I was up there last week. I would reach out to the guys at KGxpedition. They can point you in all the right directions and got base camps up there. Darren is super knowledgeable and a great guide. He can point you in the right direction. @Kgxpedition

hamstudy.org will let you view study material and take practice exams. You can also find online testing when you are ready to take the test.

Gonna try and make this

Was kicking around a few different routes to go with the bed and landed on the softtopper. As for the radio I haven’t got it installed yet. Finding a grommet has been a pain but once I found one I don’t have enough cable on the antenna mount so waiting for a extension to show up. Also if anyone...

Had a great time meeting everyone. Thanks for the pictures and video Scott. John Gill 513-907-2696 johngill86@gmail.com IG: Dapyrate80

Thanks. One more question what size breaker is that and do you currently have anything else hooked up to the fuse block?

Just out of curiosity did you ground the negative to the battery or the chassis? Also do you have any extra noise when TX using the fuse block? I am trying to decide how to wire mine. I thought about going with Anderson power poles and grounding to chassis but undecided.

Nice install. I have been looking at ideas to install my Ftm-400 and I like what you did with the mounting the mic next to the head. I may do something similar.

Camping and bourbon?! I'm definitely interested in this.

Yeah, I think you're right about that grill. I will probably end up going back to stock and maybe getting the blacked out Ford badge. I might try to swap the amber lights over though.
