What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

[slightNine]

Finished up the KC M-Rack install and slid the RTT forward a bit. I was waiting until I had the roof rack on to push it forward.

Went out to get some new photo's with the new tires I got fitted yesterday.

Eight hours worth of wiring but it’s done. Switch Pros 9100 and front facing camera and accessory lighting for camp lighting.

Mounted a pair of 10,000lb rated recovery hooks to the front frame rails. Next will be to blast off some of the rust on the front body member, then move on to blasting off the rust from the lower doors and rockers and making a sweet rattle can two tone paint job.


edited to add pics.

Finally got around to reorganizing my first and main trauma kit so I could install it on the lift gate of my Xterra with some of my other tools and lighting.

Edit to add I got the picture upload

I tried adding a picture but it doesnt seem to be working, if anyone can tell me how to post I will try again.

Not sure if it's a file-size issue, but, sometimes I have to send the image(s) to myself using Hotmail that asks me if I'd like to "Reduce File Size" - which I do - then they upload here NP. Best of Luck, and welcome to OB!

I have the same problem with the mobile app, it never uploads images properly. Doesn't give any error message either. I guess it's the file size.

Blasted a whole bunch of rust off the "beam" that runs in front of the radiator. So much rust dust was coming off I had to wear my respirator lol Hopefully the blasts of anti-rust paint will help preserve the vehicle a little longer than it would otherwise last.
Before:

After:

I didn't bother remediating all the surface rust on the bumper core because I plan to fit a winch bumper in the future, and it was just superficial anyway, however I did remediate the surface where it bolts up to the frame rail ends so as to prevent any rust being transferred to the frame again.

I may have to go back and remediate the completely rusted away radiator support that rests under the radiator feet. That's a pretty major job that involves some fabbing and a decent amount of work taking things off to get to it, so I left it for the time being. Perhaps I will revisit that when I get my new bumper.

Wow, that's a lot of work, but it looks way better than b4. Nice job!

I gave my rig her first few hundred scratches the other day. Felt good to rip the bandaid off... so I keep telling myself. haha

Using it for what it was built for! Every scratch is worth the fun and adventure that comes along with it :D Wear em with pride!

I figured you didn’t want to get the Rona from your truck.
