Got a few things done this week. I've been trying to find the AMG tie down decal for months now. It's been discontinued and the updated part number has spelling and graphic errors. I finally found a reproduction from Cold War Industries (shout out to Dave for high quality stuff!) I also put...

https://asktractormike.com/product/tractor-or-zero-turn-heavy-duty-cup-holder/ I would have preferred both of them on the radio shelf, but reaching halfway across the truck to hydrate just wasn't fun. :)

Finished up the console.

What's your plan for the racking?

Just about done. I'm waiting for a 24v 40A relay to finish up the wiring. I think it turned out halfway decent. I tried to use mil spec stuff for everything that's visible. All the stainless is bead blasted to dull it down. I think my favorite piece is the quick disconnect hinge. The whole...

Started putting together the radio tray. I whipped up some brackets to hold the MCS. There's a panel that will hang in front of it to hold 2 FFCS's. I've got an Amphenol USB socket on both sides, a 12v socket on one, a pirated transceiver switch for master power, and an MTS switch box to hold...

Entered a car show. Had an M37 randomly park next to me. Had a great time.

Cleaned up the front bumper and shackles. I'll swap the hardware when I pick up my Luverne brush guard in a few weeks. Also did a half-a.... job cleaning up the control arms and slapped some paint on there. CARC refits have always been a pet peeve of mine.

I'm still working on the center console. I got the repurposed transceiver switch connector done. Nothing exciting.

My dad would have slowly lowered the jack while I was under it........

Do you use the handheld U94? Or modify it for duplex?

https://asktractormike.com/product/tractor-or-zero-turn-heavy-duty-cup-holder/ Stumbled on it just searching around. I don't think I can just take the mount out. The bolt pattern is different from the sliders to the seat. There might be another set of holes though. I have considered bending a...

Popped the little hole plugs into underside of the hood, finishing up that project. Installed what I consider the absolute coolest strap on the entire truck. When you're on a multi hour convoy, you can kill time by counting the number of times it sways back and forth- Rebuilt the pintle...

I grew up in MA. How are the yearly inspections for you? Lights, glass, safety, but no sniffer?

Got the hood done. My wife works for DA, and at her building they just happened to have a bunch of expired cans of 686 matched touch up in the trash pile. I saved them. Next big project is the cooling stack and inner fenders. It's really the only place on the truck I haven't been except...
