It’s was easy to install, the hardest part was removing the front bumper cover. I broke a few clips and cracked a tab on my damn headlight :sick: damn plastic clips.

I know. Too many plastic clips everywhere.
 
I know I posted this in my Switch-Pros thread......but it needs to go in the build thread as well :p

Didn’t want to pay the almost $100 for a power tray. Not as cool as a power tray.....but about $80 cheaper lol.

got my 67designs phone for my @ExpeditionEssentials TPAM mount and I picked up the Bluesea systems 4.8amp charging port as well. This thing is straight titties!!! So rock solid and the best part....one handed operation! Oh and the carbon fiber is pretty damn sweet as well.

Great truck! I'm close to ordering up parts for a hidden winch install. You've got the same winch I'm eyeing... any chance you wrote up the install, or could grab some pics of the finished job? Thanks!

I had every intention to do a write up, started into it at 1 am with no instructions and all by myself.....finished at 3am. Not terrible but taking pictures would have made it take longer than I had. I would be happy to answer any questions you have though.
 
Thanks man. Sounds like how I get stuff done.

Can you reach the winch clutch without opening the hood?
 
Just a little mock up before I start drilling. Still have to get silicone and some other stuff before I start but I finally got my rack.

Started my 12v bed plug setup. Should be done this weekend.

So stoked on the new @ExpeditionEssentials TPAM wire cover plate (y) really cleans up the look a lot.

Got a wild hair up my bum and installed my CB this weekend.

Still have to get my firestick and run the antenna cable. Just waiting on my new hard top canopy to come in.
