Finally got my PullKitchen installed today. Had to go to UPS and pick it up because UPS Freight sucks donkey balls. Tracking website said there was a problem with the delivery. The problem was UPS couldn't be bothered to call and schedule a delivery. I called and asked why they wasn't delivering it.

of course it was a rainy day.

It stayed in the back of my truck through another rainstorm and snowstorm. Hopefully that will be the last time it will be cold.

I read the instructions it came with and had to order 21/64 and 29/64 drill bits. Went to Home Depot and bought a Dewalt 20v 1/2 inch drive impact wrench and wait for a day off that was not during a blizzard, or 60 mph winds. Finally got a day that was sunny and was able to install it. But wait! I don't have a 1/2 inch drive drill. Off to Home Depot to buy Dewalt cordless drill/driver. I had ordered an inexpensive impact socket set from Amazon previously. I cringed drilling holes in my truck bed.

Installed four nutserts and bolted it down.

Its a bit tight to the front of the truck, probably more than it should be. The rotopax mount clears the locking mechanism if its verticle and will fit in the recess in the front of the truck bed.

The boss came out to check out her work area. She's painting a stairwell in her condo and wanted to take a break

Stove and Sink

Large Storage area with the 12v dewalt battery that powers the LED lights and the pump for the water for the sink stored in the rotopax

Shallow Storage area

Only issue I've seen so far is the bolts are getting rusty from being out in the weather. I need to do something about that.

At least it was a good excuse to buy some tools I wanted./needed.

Nothing lately but I got the bug again! In Maui currently and man is there a lot of Ranger love out here. I've seen more lifted, tricked out beds and plane Jane Rangers in 2 weeks than I have seen at home since owning mine; 2019.

Now I want a lift and to ditch the factory tire setup. Looks so nice!!! Making me jelly (fish)!

Added red outlined letters to the Raptor grill.

Good choice on the Nomad's

It's REAL tempting; although I've been pondering about these molle-compatible Bedside Rack Systems...

Yeah those are sweet. I'm wondering if I can add that as well

Nothing, 'cause it has stormed ALL day!

First real wash since before winter.

Hey those look good! Some of the others I've seen on here looked like poor quality, but yours look great. May I ask where you got yours?

Thanks! They do look great.
TVD - Good quality, easy install following their instructions. I cleaned the dash with soap and water, dried and used a cotton swab and alcohol as a final cleaning of the dash indentations. Let that dry. Peeled the letters off the backing by the corners using masking tape (go slow to not stretch or tear), dunked them in soapy water. Used cotton swab to wet the dash letters with soapy water and then position the letter while peeling the letter off the tape (slow again). Used a dry swab to dry off most of the the water and to put in final position. I also used a small jewelers screwdriver on the really thin portions like the letter E. Move on to next letter. Took about 15 minutes total.
I also have a set of grill letters that will match the color of the truck. Waiting for the right weather and time to install those.

Took my damper, engine cover, and grille light bar off to move to my new truck.

Wow, you're makin' a Food Truck!!

Have mine on order and will heed your warning about the clips! THX

My Putco Bumper Grille Insert came in and I got it installed. Thanks for the heads-up about the plastic clips. I tried to be careful, but I think those things are made for one-time use. I broke one beyond anything I could use, and the other four had small pieces broken off of them, but were still ok to use and are holding ok. I went ahead and ordered five new one's from my local Ford dealer and will replace the old one's when they arrive.

Thanks. Yes I love the new bonnet. I bought it from a local garage called F-Sport here in Phuket.
The retune is complete and it’s great (we are now running 28 psi of boost)
The only Rolling Road (Dyno) in Thailand is in Bangkok. Due to Covid it’s not possible to drive there from Phuket right now plus it’s like 1000 kilometres each way just to get a piece of paper. The truck has loads of power and she runs very smooth .......I am very happy with the performance ???

 

[ndwgolf]

Head lights at start up.............. hay I’m only 63 ????

 

[ndwgolf]

The 35s sure makes her look complete now
Boys with there toys ????
