Any issues with the heat of the unit next to your nice blue paint? Also how easy is it to remove with the quick disconnect wiring? I’d plan to just hook it back up for dune trips and then leave it in my garage when I’m home. Lastly any video help for the wire routing?
It’s the same nice blue paint that is in the engine compartment. Heat is not an issue at all. It’s hot to the touch, it’s not going to torch your Bronco. I didn’t use the quick disconnect but I would assume it would make removal easy. It should work for your application. No video of routing. I ran it down within the passenger side wall panel, under the rear seat to the driver side, under both door sills to the firewall and into the engine bay. Pretty simple to do.

Perfect, I just thought it seemed closer to an exposed painted surface and have seen people ranting about heat from compressors πŸ˜‚. I figured it’d be safe, but was looking for someone with experience πŸ‘πŸ»

Had a busy and productive day today...

Slide out Tailgate - installed

KC HiLites Flex Era 4s - Installed Aux 3 mains (that's the 30A on Raptor) and Aux 6 for amber backlighting. Did some custom overlays on the KC covers to color match a little bit.

Who makes that mountain graphic?
That was me. Mocked it up on the computer, bought a roll of 3M matte black for about $60, printed the outline of each piece onto paper to use as a template, cut vinyl with blade and straight edge, applied each piece separately with soapy water and squeegee. Took awhile but was pretty simple and fulfilling. side photo

Took a 10-day overlanding trip, MN-SD-CO-UT-CA-AZ-MN. First camp Custer State Park in SD, herding goats. Stopped at the Badlands. Pretty windy drive across SD.

Headed south through WY into CO, to Carbondale, CO. Rained the whole way. Setup camp in the sprinkles. Next day set out across UT and NV, camping in Wendover, NV. Meeting up with my cousin in Markleeville, CA, in Toiyabe National Forest. Such a brutal drive, against the wind the whole way. Joined the cracked windshield group in Salt Lake City. Stopped at the Bonneville Salt Flats. That salt sticks to your car worse than snow.

Camped in Toiyabe National Forest in CA just south of Lake Tahoe, my cousin with his '22 Defender, and his great danes.

It was too dang windy to set up tents, so my attempt at sleeping in the back of my 2-door. I'm only 5'7" so diagonally worked. Had to have my cooler inside, just a couple nights ago my cousin had a black bear trying to get into his fridge.

Nice scenery the next day, heading towards Death Valley.

We wanted to head through Death Valley but the wind was so bad there was a constant dust storm, we decided to turn back.

Ended up finding a last minute campground just outside of Kingman, AZ for our last night. Phoenix was my destination, picked up my mom and headed back to MN.

Met up with a friend in Phoenix and his '23 Base-Squatch.

Bronco made the trip fun. Those that know of the 7mt scraping/grinding issue, mine got worse on my way back to MN. Typically I heard the scraping only during the winter months. Now I could hear it in the AZ heat. Now that I'm back in MN I haven't heard it at all. About a 4k mile trip, now have almost 29k on my Bronco. Gonna discuss my repair options with the dealer this week.

Can't wait to do another trip.

Rockpals 300w power supply.

I have a couple Xmas ornaments (trucks) dangling from the mic. Towards the front a couple pics of my son. To the left of my sons pics at the front is a good luck pendant he gave me β€œprotected by angels”. Did I miss anything?

I’ve never seen that A pillar light mount/bracket before - Any details on it? It looks like it has a pin on it - does it come off or turn like a spotlight? I’m intrigued.

Thanks, I'll checkout the power supply. The ornaments looked looked light lights or something. I was thinking you setup something up for when you turn in for the night. I'm working on my overland trailer and seeing what others do helps...

Thank you,

Went to Weaver lake today. Used my ARB twin air compressor and Thor Lightning 4 tire inflation kit for the first time…a game changer compared to my portable Viair 400p and single air hose.
