  1. TrailRax Table slide - Available now!

    Only issue is that the 90 degree brackets require clear vertical space above the side of the rack. The ikamper overhangs the sides by about 4-6 inches on both sides of the rack.
  2. TrailRax Table slide - Available now!

    I’m a fan. I have a 23zero shower tent attached to the back of my TRMR, so this couldn’t slide out that way. Any ideas? I don’t like having my shower/bathroom back there, but don’t know how to mount it elsewhere as I’ve got a SkyCamp 2.0 that overhangs my rack on both sides.
  3. HF Radio Install Considerations

    Installed and works great. Made contacts to Michigan from Key West. Have the K400 mounted forward on the hood but am not crazy about it. The hood is so flimsy that the heavy antenna wobbles - especially at highway speeds. Definitely considering an alternative. Trying to figure out how to make a...
  4. Inverter recommendations

    I didn’t take any pictures when I installed it earlier this year. It was pretty straightforward, if a little bit frustrating. The back of the seat is a metal frame – stamped steel. I just marked and drilled holes where the mounting brackets were on the battery. Then, I unzipped the cover and ran...
  5. Apex Compact Reel System Mount

    Any ideas on locations under the hood for mounting? I’m not interested in a roll bar mount, and want to keep it all in the engine compartment. I have a Grimm Off-road compressor mount. Also, I have an American Adventure Labs battery cut off switch and bracket mounted above the firewall on the...

    Thank you. Ended up buying the Redarc. Redarc specifies 3/0 wire for the roughly seven feet up from the bus bar over to the inverter on the other side of the cargo area. Putting a maxi fuse in line. Photos below of where it stands right now. Will need to finish running the wires to it and...

    indeed it will. Battery is rated for 120A continuous and 200A peak. Not interested in a generator. Interested in an inverter.

    I had an ecoflow delta 2, which was fine, but insufficient. DC charging is painfully slow (and liable to burn Bronco fuses - ask me how I know). Biggest problem is the giant block that occupies a tremendous amount of space. I’ve got a flat 100Ah battery mounted to my back seat and charger, bus...

    What works well and lasts a long time? Feel like Redarc 1500w is the best option, but it’s also 2-3x the price of the competition. Reviews on other devices have me scared about reliability. Need to power a 1200w induction cooktop.
  10. Hard Top Molle Panel

    I’ve got the DV8 and am mostly happy with it. Wish AAL made one, because I would much rather have aluminum than heavy steel. Also, it binds on the passenger hard top release latch above the mirror. This is a big design flaw, but I can still remove the top by pulling down hard on the side of the...
  11. HF Radio Install Considerations

    Resurrecting this thread. Between then and now, I’ve had a deployment and PCS move. Finally feeling settled and ordered an FT-891 and ATAS-120. At the moment, I’ve got a K400 inbound to do a hood mount, but am interested in doing one of the fender mounts that fits between the hood and fender...
  12. Ignition wire for BCDC Charger

    So I used the Aux switch, and it does charge. What I had hoped was that I could also turn the charger off from the driver seat, but since the alternator is frequently output by enough voltage to initiate charging without the switch flipped, it will still charge quite frequently even with the...
  13. Ignition wire for BCDC Charger

    Just installed a BCDC 40A and a DCS 100Ah slimline battery. BCDC requires the blue switch wire to connect to an ignition wire for vehicles with smart alternators, and I assumed I could use an upfitter switch for that purpose. Long story short, that didn’t have the intended effect. What do I...
  14. DCS 12v 100AH Super Slim Deep Cycle Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) Battery

    I’m not sure if they’ve put it in Broncos yet. The guy there did mention a rear seat delete as we were brainstorming, but saw my three kids with me and realized that was no-go. His idea was to mount it between my fridge and the side panel on the driver’s side, which is a possibility if I can...
  15. DCS 12v 100AH Super Slim Deep Cycle Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePo4) Battery

    Anybody use this? Stopped by Rhino in San Marcos looking for advice/solutions for battery mounting. This is pretty expensive, but opens up a lot of doors for saving space. I’m thinking about mounting it to the back of the rear seat on the driver’s side. It will fit perfectly in that location...
  16. Dual Battery Setups vs Portable Power supply

    I have been running an EcoFlow Delta 2 in the back of my Bronco for about six months now. It’s actually my third unit, as it has been replaced under warranty twice. When I left a negative review on Amazon, they contacted me directly and offered me a $50 Amazon GC to take it down. If you pay...
  17. HF Radio Install Considerations

    When I read this, I figured that would be a good solution, but when I looked at my rig, I remembered that I’ve got a shower tent mounted to the back of my roof rack that protrudes enough to interfere with any tall antenna mounted towards the center of the tailgate. That got me thinking about lip...
  18. Low profile recovery gear storage

    I will eventually put an AAL drawer (or two) on the right side for tools and camping gear, but I’m otherwise pretty short on space and want to get stuff out of the cabin where possible.
