Overland Build - Lift, Tires, bed slide, bed panels, sleeping... On going

Did you ever install sway bar disconnects? Waiting for someone with a standard lift/level to try those autoLYNX.

No disconnects yet. After I finish the racks, onboard air. Then I will try something.

Hey,
A buddy of mine filmed a walk around of my ranger so I thought I would share.

Forgot to include it here but I have added a JCR Offrod bumper, a warn VR EVO 10S, and a vivid lumen midnight light bar. I also have an Aux beam switch that I am still installing.

the JCR bumper was fairly straight forward to install and their video was excellent to follow. Finding a place for the winch controller and aux beam stuff under the hood is not easy. I also have 2 60amp breakers, 1 for the aux beam and 1 for an onboard air compressor coming soon.

Where are you planning to mount the on board air?

Hello

I am planning to mount it in the bed, on the side. I have a bed slide I built and it has boxes on either side and will fit in there.

i am planning on using a 60amp breaker from the battery to run a 6ga wire to the bed ending in an Anderson plug. I will relocate the switch so I can reach it easily from the topper back window. And run a manifold and air chucks to the same place. I was planning on running the switch to the aux beam but I think it makes more sense to just have the switch accessible near the air chucks at the back of the topper.

here is the compressor I have, it works great so far.

How did you relocate the adaptive CC sensor with that bumper?

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Mag safe phone charger

Just a quick note, I wanted to try wireless CarPlay so picked up a usb adaptor from amazon.

Works great so far.

I also wanted "wireless" charging / MagSafe phone holder.

Works great as well

Ok I finally got around to organizing the slide out in the truck bed

Just finished going through your build thread.
Very nice clean and tastefully done.
That bed slide is really cool too.

Finally mounted things on the rack

I also finally put a front license plate back on. I got one for the winch fairlead but it was too wide, so I mounted it just above and flipped the thumb screws over to the inside.

Latest trip I doubled down on hitting the back bed corners, time for some protection there I guess.
