Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.
When I get my new KB Voodoo Pro-Max rack my plan is to install a KC HiLites rear chase bar that will have rear turn signals and amber dust lights. I needed to install 2 switches to signal the solid amber and flashing amber lights. The amber LED’s have a minimal draw so I’m switching them...
My HAM unit is under the front passenger seat and I wanted to add an extension for the mic so that it wasn’t stretching from under the far seat. So I routed the extension into the center console.
There’s 4 bolts that I loosened
I drilled a hole near the edge just big enough for the mic plug...
I am wiring up my HAM radio and needed to pass the power cords through the firewall. HAMs specifically state not to power it off of the fuse block but the battery to keep down electrical noise.
On both sides of the truck under the dash are 2 large rubber grommets that have a big wire harness...
I used @RevereOverland 20% code and purchased Method 703 17x8.5 +35 wheels. I bought my friends tires he took off his day old Bronco Wildtrack which are Goodyear 315/70/17. He owns a tire shop and at $200 each mounted balanced and TPMS switched over I’m pretty happy. There are something like...
For wiring the dual compressor I used 8awg wire to run 2 positive lines from the battery to the compressor. Each compressor gets its own wire. I ran the negative wire to the compressor and spliced in the negative wire from my switch box as well. I also ran a shorter negative wire to the rear of...
I decided to place my compressor, after much deliberation, on the bed side wall in front of the wheel well. I went with a QuickDraw ARB compressor mount because of its simplicity, rubber dampeners, and well it’s easy...
I like to off road a lot and changing tire pressure is like changing shoes. If you are playing football on grass you aren't going to wear bowling shoes. The same is true if you are running forest roads, desert roads, or hitting rock gardens changing tire pressure helps with grip and comfort...
My Limited came with the Limited power option which includes the AC outlet in the bed and bed lights. The lights work good but I wanted great. The bed lights turn on with the overhead external rear light when you open the tailgate so I piggybacked off those. I was going to add a pin switch to...
I moved this build thread over to Overland Builds
**note this thread is best viewed as a webpage vs the app
Full-Size Fun
This build thread is how I am going about solving my problems and making off roading and camping more fun. I have learned first-hand that if something is easier to do then...
The bummer is the signature only shows if you are using the webpage version of the forum. I don’t know how to make the app show the signature. Personally I recommend everyone to use the webpage version of the forum as opposed to the app if you really want to understand how to navigate around it.
All the month’s current info and trip schedule is on post #2 of this thread
