RETIRED!!!!
Started with a pile of parts...

I cut the 10' PVC pipe down to 5.5'.

I then drilled holes into the end-caps and installed a ball valve spigot, a shrader valve, and a pressure relief bleeder.

The caps got sealed on and I painted the whole thing black.

Then it was time to mount it onto my Ranger.

So now, when I go out to the beach, I can hose off the sand before I drive home! It has a 6.5 gallon capacity, and is partially charged by the water pressure of the hose filling it. I also have a small bicycle air pump to further charge it with air pressure.

I know this is an old post, but I'm looking to purchase these same lights. In the description it says some trimming is required and I'm not really a fan of trimming. Did you have to cut at all to get these to fit?

i think you could sell a few of those things! id like one to wash my hands and arms after fishing. its hard not to get fishy hands on the truck unless you get a good amount of water and bar soap. i normally carry a gallon jug to wash hands with but its more mess than wash.

Interior is half done, seats and door trims went in today, with a little help.

Need to change the trimming on the wheel and I have some dashboard parts being painted, hopefully they ship next week.

Hope it all works together, or it’ll be an expensive mistake.

Great job on making the holders! :like: But if you're ever looking for a quick easy way they have these seat hangers available.

Thanks Dave! Yet another thing going into my Amazon cart for later purchase! That list is getting long!

These are so perfect for the back of the front seats and the front of the back seats for our yet-to-arrive Supercab!

I swear, by the time we get it, we'll have an equal value of stuff waiting to add to it. =D

It never ends David! 3 year later and my wish list still has stuff in it and now I'm looking on Stage3's site at new shocks. :shock: :facepalm:

These hooks are great for hanging tons of stuff. I have limited room in my Jeep (2dr) and these hold my water bottle perfectly.

Yeah it's super simple. The outlet in the bed clicks into place with metal clips using a cutout that already exists in the bed. On the other end the male connector just plugs into the factory harness female plug located on the frame behind the drivers side rear tire. Then you can do whatever you want with the 6' pigtail to run your own accessories.

This is good to know! Thanks. Still waiting for shipping confirmation.....
