More progress:
Working on the house battery setup now. Just using my old starting battery until I can afford a deep cycle. Circuit breaker will allow me to completely cut power when not in use. Gotta make a Lowes run for heavier wire to finish it up and start working on my onboard water setup

Blew the rear diff at Uwharrie this weekend. What a mess. Took many hours to get me and 6 other trucks of the trail. I got a tow to East Coast Gear Supply for the repair. I'm now rocking 4.56s in the rear and a $900 credit card bill. As soon as this is paid for I'll be ordering the front diff with a locker so I can use my 4wd again.

I started cleaning out the cab of my truck and reorganizing. After 8 or 9 years you accumulate a lot of crap. I'll work on the tool boxes later.
Here's the truck
So today I emptied the cab and steam cleaned the interior after last weeks camping/wheeling disaster. 200k on the truck so its still pretty rough, but better than it was. Here's what came out
Here's what went back in
Center console organizer. Multitool, knife, winch controllers, safety glasses, gloves, pens, sharpies, lighter, batteries etc
.22 truck gun I picked up for $60. Its in "kit" form made from an old ACU leg. In the kit is the rifle, 22ammo in grizzly cans, a cheap knife, flashlight, 550, magnesium block, jute twine, candle and batteries. The rifle also has a sling
NFA paperwork copies for my suppressors and SBR
Covered with nonslip foam mat for the mutt to sit on
Under the fold down seats
Bottle jack tall enough to lift my truck. This will be awesome when I get OBA
Other side has cables and a flashlight. These batteries are actually made up of 36 AA batteries. So in an emergency you can open it up and snag them
Driver door pocket: convexed Swamprat Chopweiller, multitool, sharpener, lighter, battery pack and antenna for my CB
Back door pocket
Passenger rear door "**** kit":wipes, to, shovel, headlamp lighter, lighter, fire starters
Clipped to the passenger seat. Two hats. Very important when you're bald
Clipped to the driver seat is my GHB
Sitting behind it is my first aid kit.
Plugged into the power outlets is my CB and phone charger
That's pretty much it. If there's enough interest I'll go over the first aide and GHBs.
Thanks for looking
