What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

H3 Alpha. Hard to find any after market parts for the H3 so I built my own Jerry can holder. The whole rack is bolted on with only two welds to support the lower Jerry can brackets. In order to clear the 35” tires and raised receiver I had to raiser the tire carrier up 6 in.

By the way the reciever lift is the best shop tool I have. Helps as a second set of hands and lifting heavy items on and off the truck or trailer.

Before and after. Now to get some rotopax for the holder. I am leaning toward not getting a highlift. Seems like alot of weight for something i have never, in 22 years of offroading, needed
Thank god for the side mirrors and rear view backup camera. I’m going to upgrade the radio soon with a new camera on the top bar of the Jerry can rack.

I just mounted my highlift. Before, it was always on my roof rack, making me top heavy, or under the back seats, keeping me from lowering them.

Many things happened today:
1) Got to meetup with Rltennal out in the Cascades. It was great to meetup with another Overland Bound member.
2) Got an antenna and mount for my CB. Looking good.
3) Got my Overland Bound emblem in today.
Also, played in the snow with my family and my rig.

Hung out with @JRElaxED and did some cooking and tried out new gear.
For anyone curious, Oztent awning extensions/walls work perfectly with ARB awnings, providing you have the Rhino double zipper insert. Awesome coverage, and so many options for setup! Really digging it!

Finally pulled the trigger on a CVT tent yesterday after a year of planning. 
Sunday project, What should of been a three hour job turned into a 6 hour job and a trip to harbor freight to buy a shop press . I decided that today was a good day to replace the differential crossmember bushing. Taking it out was not an issue. Add flame and burn out old busing. Use a oversized socket and a large hammer to take out the sleeve. There was no way putting the new one back in with the tools I have.

Aside from my truck’s first oil change, my mod was strictly asthetic. Still waiting for my custom rack and my iKamper X-cover won’t be delivered for a bit. That, coupled with lack of accessories so far, I’m just tinkering. I did some vinyl wrap on the hood and roof.

I bought a MOLLE visor organizer to get some of the most commonly used items out of my center console. I haven't had time to put stuff on it yet but you get the idea. $10 on Amazon. The knife was on clearance at TractorSupply for $10 and has nice untility blade, glass breaker, cord/seatbelt cutter and quick open. It's not high end but I dig it assuming it holds even a remotely keen edge. I have 3 other sharp knives in the truck anyway.
I also purchased a 300w pure sine wave inverter for charging laptops and our ebikes while traveling. It rates pretty well and was only $45.

Nice mods. I have the same inverter. Works great. Had a 65 watt one and it burned out so went bigger.I bought a MOLLE visor organizer to get some of the most commonly used items out of my center console.
