What did you do to your AT4 today?

[bookemdanno]

Since I don't drive it sometimes for longer periods of time, I added a battery tender plug. Still need to wire it in, but it's mounted anyway. Little nerve racking cutting a hole in the new grille, but it seemed like the best location. I considered putting it by the block heater, but flat mounting space was nonexistent, and it would have resulted in a longer wire run. I think it turned out well, blends in with all the black, and doesn't stick out like a sore thumb too bad.

Clean install, but as @gemarsh said. They have the 7 pin connector on Amazon.

Looks good.

Wished you would've asked about ideas. Could have save time. You can back feed the battery maintainer thru the 7way, if'n that would be feasible for your situation and @pinebaron has come up with an alternative solution as he couldn't get to his rear bumper.

Doesn't matter now, and you did a good clean job and not a hack job or a cord hanging out somewhere!

I actually do remember seeing that on here somewhere, and I did consider it, but I went this way more for availability of electrical outlets in my old 70's garage the way I park it. Yeah I could use an extension cord or run a new outlet, but I liked the idea of having it up near the block heater as well. Kind of an all in one place sort of thing.

New bed divider byTruxistim. Awesome build quality, fit secure, great company, and will work nicely or my application. It was between this or the molle panels. Decided to go with this for the versatility of my needs.

Good looking tig welds too. Seems anymore, more people than not don't take pride in their work or product. Beauty!

Build quality is on point. I'm not a welder, but from my untrained eye its done right.

Removed and replaced the terrible Rancho's for some Bilstein's.

Seems like a common theme!

Not today, but couple days ago I changed the fuel filter at 12,580 miles. Looked pretty clean if you ask me. Probably could have gone the full 15k miles for servicing.

I'll probably catch heat from some people, but I've decided to do oil changes at 5k and fuel every other oil change at 10k. Cheap insurance to me. And I don't spend nearly as much as I used to on beer and women, so that disposable income has to go somewhere.

No different here. Second oil change this week at only 8400miles. In addition, my request was to grease all suspsension zerks, including ones hidden above the front skid plate (AEV Edition here). Now I'm all ready for spring and summer season for our trips to BC Canada including dusty trails to lakes and all; the truck effortlessly glides over rocks and all; also thanks to my amazing tires.

With the new bed divider, I had to fabricate a new bracket so my fire extinguisher and mount will fit again.

Wdh set up for the camper, and everything cleaned up and ready to go camping on Friday. Which can only mean one thing, it will probably rain non stop. Everything came out just about dead nuts level and even on the hitch on the first go around, so I was pleased. I set it up with 20 psi in the airbags as sort of a benchmark that I can adjust from there. It's probably a little stiff for what I need, but everything was empty at the time, too. We'll see how it travels this weekend and go from there.

1500 miles into our trip for the first 2 days. Some good snow in WY but a quick bath hours later and onto MT.

Good to know, as I was just thinking about this the other day and wondering if it would work. I'll have to buy the connector now.

Pinnacle Offroad LCA skid plates installed. Extremely well manufactured, quality product, and awesome customer support/ company. Had them powder coated brass monkey bronze, the same color i did all my truck badging. Very happy with this purchase, install, and product.
