The twin hoes plus one

[Sparksalot]

White was what I was thinking too.

The painting was going so well, then the wind came up. Ugh. I’ll probably just strip them and start over.

Doesn’t everyone have 28 holes and 2 rivnuts in their hood?

I haven’t even got the metal saw out yet.

Where did you get the strobes on the push bar? Can you alternate the flashes?

They are Feinix strobes. i found them on eBay for $29 each, about the going rate anywhere. The patterns can be changed by just grounding a signal wire. Right now I’ve kept them in synch, but could change them individually by unplugging one or the other. I’m not running them through a controller or other synch device.

I got this strobe switch from Superbrightleds. On/off with a ground signal button to change the pattern.

I’m more of a self-drilling screw guy myself. Fewer steps.

I use guarded switches. One for the strobes and light bars, the other for my ditch lights.

No metal saw yet. I’m going to hang with friends tomorrow, trying them on for looks.

Trucks looking good with the vents!

Are you running a mobile HAM setup? what are you using for antenna/mount? I'm looking for ideas on how to mount my uhf/vhf antenna for my Icom 4100.

Can we see them in chrome and in gold for comparison?

I reused the roof holes that DPS had plugged. They’ve got NMO mounts in them.

Finished up the louvres.

I don’t recall who suggested black under the louvers. Good call.

Digging it!

Thanks!

In thecopcar, I added some snap on RF chokes to the power cords for both the refrigerator and one of the ham radios. The frig has been driving that radio nuts since I installed it.

the other radio has been quiet since the chokes were added to the fridge cord.

wide open squelch on an FM radio sux.

Was under hood in theothertwin today and noticed it has the battery isolation relay option. Not sure why I never noticed it, but bam there it is. DPS or the upfitter bypassed it however, since all the cables are attached at the upper terminal only.

I found some door hardware on eBay. The seller lives on the other side of town. Snagged.

I need a set of those for when we’re trail riding and the dogs spot a deer.

My fingers got itchy, instead of waiting until tomorrow.
