Its not drilling a hole, its making it a tiny bit bigger. There is a factory hole in that spot. Its something like a 6/8ths (3/4ths) size and it needs to be a 7/8ths size. I just use a step down bit and was able to get it done with no problems. I also didn't have to drop the whole head...

I ended up getting the prinsu rack. Thank you for the advice. Maybe someone else can use it.

This is my daily driver first off. Part of the reason I want to put in an Auz battery is to put all my accessories on that and keep it isolated from my main power. Just incase something does happen it wouldn't effect my stock system. I plan on having a physical switch that would disconnect the...

So doing some research you can get 3.2 volt LiFePo4 cells fairly easily and putting 4 in series gets you a 12.8 volts. So would it be best to make a battery to fit the area? Or buy an existing car battery that's LiFePo4?

Well given the spot I am thinking of using is designed to hold a normal car Battery for the Hybrid Rav4s. It should be a standardized dimension for a Car or Truck Battery.

Thank you very much. I wouldnt have taken cold weather into account but I do need to just incase I am in a situation like Texas had back in at the beginning of the year or if Im out in a cold environment. LiFePo4 is a Lithium Iron battery right?

That is exactly what planning. which is why Im trying to make sure its future proof for all the power needs I will need, not the power need I have now.

So Im looking into setting up a dual battery for my Rav4 XLE AWD. I do not have the Immediate need for it, but since Im planning out my lights right now, Im trying to think ahead. Because of how Toyota does the designs for the Rav4s there is a spot a battery would go if I had the Hybrid model. I...

Update on my build. Prinsu Rack on. Got the recovery boards mounted, and figured out a secure tie down for the Gazelle T4 tent. Got the Midland Mxt400 wired up and working.

Ok. I'll be able to give a better idea on when we will be getting to the beach a few days before hand. I'm also working on getting a GMRS radio so I can do call outs and try to find the group

No I'm not that bad. I'm just an Uniformed Armed Security for a medium sized Airport.

I always conceal carry outside of work. It gives me the ability to choice when to use my violence of action. At my job I'm open carrying, but my uniform gives away that I'm armed and an attorney figure. So being concealed has no benefits there.

I carry a Springfield Armory XDM9 Everyday as apart of my job, and while off work. So Ill definitely be carrying on camping trips, and depending on where the trip might be too, Id bring along a rifle If I felt it was needed.

I know I need to program in the various frequencies (if I don't feel like just memorizing and manually changing the frequencies) that I plan on using frequently. Ie my local ham clubs repeater, and other frequencies. To me that's not really programming. I have the software already and its...

Yes this is what I ment. I apologize for using the wrong term. And thank you for providing me with source material to look at.

Thank you for the information. I've never heard it was illegal for 1 radio to have the ability to transmit on multiple frequency bands. In my personsal area there is a good sized Ham club, which is why I've been trying to get my ham license. I'm just not sure what is used in this group for my...

I know the ICOM brand we use them at my job for our truck radios. my only issue with them is they dont broadcast up into the GMRS Frequencies. Id like to have one radio in my rig that can talk to most if not all other radios, for simplicity of use, setup and look.

Yes I knew that. I have a hand held GMRS Radio. I've posted under the communication threads. I'm hoping to have a Rig Radio before this trip.

ok I know there is radios that could broadcast on the Ham, and GMRS frequencies. I didn't know if any radios had the CB frequencies also. As of right now Im looking at something like the Btech UV-25x2. but idk how well this radio will work for my needs.

Yes as we get closer I'll message and try to see where everyone is.
