Finally got around to installing my CBi ditch brackets and Rigid D2's. Need to wait for nightfall to appreciate the light output.

Decided to try out the dual USB/voltmeter combo and swap out one of my lighter plugs.

It works so far, I went to superstition mountains to recover a raptor, part of an online group called so cal off road recovery. The temps were about 20 degrees lower than normal. So I will be getting louvers :) onto the pics

Used my c02 tank to put the tires back on

That's a pretty long drive for a recovery.
Oh I'm sorry superstition mtn is like 20 min away from my house. The gentlemen in the raptor is from San diego.

I just looked it up and I guess there's another superstition min in Arizona. This one is in so cal in between plaster city and ocotillo wells

Can you reach your hood release latch with the bug guard?

I can't! I had to make a shim to stick in the hood to get it open. I'm making a cable to attach to the hood latch that you can pull from behind the grill. I like the look of the guard and I want to keep it.

I am curious why a marine captain gets stuck out in the desert of all places. That is a little ironic. Maybe he should stick to the water.

Haha it was really sketchy where he was at. The pics don't do it judgment. In surprised I was able to help out. I had trouble just getting to him. Seemed like a great guy tho.

Started initial new wiring layout. Firewall punched with grommet, front wires ran above headliner.

Still having trouble with idling even after MAP sensor teed into fuel regulator line. Back to stock ECU until next garage time.

Pods mounted, wiring hung up on final location of MAP ECU 3 so that I can common ground the AEM AFR with it.

Thinking about ditching the glove box and putting in a mounting panel. then just using the 40mm ammo can I already was going to use for the center lockbox.
 
Not today but Sunday did an oil change. hasn't burned a drop and was still golden brown
Finally installed my extended rear bump stops I picked up from [MENTION=116387]Unner[/MENTION]
Also gave her a quick interior detail along with a polish and wax

Perfect time to smoke a fat bowl of natures finest after all that!

Were the red horns too much for you? I thought my red Hellas would annoy me and they did at first actually, but they've grown on me since.
