Sand must be different these days. I used to drive the beaches of Galveston Island and South Padre Island back in the 1980s. I never let air out of the old L78-15 tires on that FJ40. I did, however, have a winch and lots of ropes (none of that pansy "recovery" strap nonsense back then, kinetic...

I hope it's good, sure spent enough time Googling a stoopid toilet. Our main line doesn't angle down much and the house was built with 5-gallon flushers in the '50s. I sure wish I hadn't cracked my 4-bolt 1964 toilet and it's glorious water-wasting flush. It did great, but it did take forever...

Build your own glasspack like this guy!

Looking like a truckie kind of day! =) Picked up a 120-pound toilet at Home Depot, did a test dump run with a half-filled Leaf Burrito and a few odds and ends. Then, this afternoon, going to sLowe's to get a 142-pound vanity. I opted to get my daughter to help, I'm not to sure I could rig the...

Did he have a tortoise with him? =)

In that case, one simple relay with an inline fuse would be pretty easy, safe, and mean just one separate switch. Of course, if your "shower in the bed" switch really does nothing, the relay could be triggered by it. Who cares what that icon is, you know what you'd use it for. If not a big...

Fixed yer pic:

Post for doing a fuseblock, excellent post with lots of info and pics: https://www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/diy-relay-fuse-block.14253/ @AZRangerDood

If you're running many things that can draw serious amps, I'd suggest wiring in an auxiliary fuse block to tap into. I've run big old school KC lights off a relay wired straight to the battery, but a fuse block would be neater with more options, I think. I do have a backup alarm directly...

You must be out of squids, that left button is a squid launcher: But in all seriousness, your switch doesn't turn on the bed lights? I think you probably have that roll bar thing, that we don't, but it must still have lights up there?!?

Time to expand Soupie's Dump Runner service, and I'll have a few bucks leftover - from FB marketplace and very close!

Just received in email and I'm going to mod town on this windfall! =D

Well, dang it! The paint under the rear of the back fender looks splotchy on mine. Where the fibreglass layer is. You can only see it from under the truck. I need to take pics and see what y'all think. It didn't bug me very much until now ...

Thanks for the tip on the cheapest kit, and it's ordered - thanks!!1 =)

Welcome to the forum @PNWPIK ! Great bunch of folks here with tremendously deep knowledge of pretty much everything on the Ranger. To get started, go to the link in my signature and buy it all! =p If not all, then at least a tailgate damper and Graphene. =D Don't worry, these two things...

The critical thing is which "adapter" you need (pic below). I got the short one: https://www.911motorsports.net/Short-Round-Saddle--Floor-Jack-Extension-_p_1125.html But they have a taller one too: https://www.911motorsports.net/4x4-Floor-Jack-Extension_p_77.html Plus an off-road conversion...

Race Red for the win!!! Plus extra WIN for the doggos! =D

Would something like these extensions get you the lift you need? Update with other ideas:

from a month ago, after a bath and graphene =)

Fantastic mods! And I really like your chain adjuster plate, that's brillinat! The welded-on hook loop is ingenious and with your transport position, I think that would be highway worthy. =) I don't have enough amps in the garage for my welder (and I haven't welded in over 20 years) but I...
