Duecius Maximus, a build...

[Duece McCracken]

A Stilt Rat decided to cut me off, but wasn't fast enough. So he got hit, deer is fine, just got knocked over and slid down the road a bit. Got up and went about it's morning.

My fog light housing may be damaged. Bumper is damaged. Fender did not get hit. So overall, like no real damage.

I ordered the RR arcus with Overrider bar. It'' be here friday. Amazon had a 10 percent off coupon on it too! So 560 shipped. SCORE!!

Winch power stuff has been collected.

Arcus horns have been powdercoated.

Just need to get some new fogs, and will be mostly ready for the swap.

I may need longer bumper bolts, I have spacers.

My "parts awaiting install" crate is over flowing at this point. Im hoping to start crossing stuff off that list .

Additionally, I wanted to check my oil level. Which I just did. Top of hash marks. No loss. Gained some color for sure, lol. I do run the piss out of this 3.6, all the way up in 6k turf and plenty of decel in gear. I'm a "motoman break-in" guy. So I did my best to give it an aggressive break in. Which seems to have been spot on so far.

I am thinking of doing another oil change though. Just to make sure all the break in stuffs gets out in a timely fashion, lol

Oh schnapp, I never swapped trans and transfer case fluid. Thats on the list. Heck, imma make a list.

1. Oracle bumper reverse lights
2. Rugged Ridge arcus front
3. Badlands 12k winch
4. Diode Dynamics SS3 maxx fogs
5. Trans fluid
6. Transfer case fluid
7. PPF headlights/hood latch areas
8. Stow rest of recovery gear
9. Wash Truck, lmfao

Installed the Oracle reverse lights. The plug and play harness was long enough to go to the passenger side. I used dielectric grease on the connectors and O-rings. Antiseize on all the bolts to help prevent the threaded clips from rotting out.

Lights are bright, and are working well. Super easy install.

I still have to move my tools to their new boxes. I've been super lazy.

Went with the big boy seat jacker fronts. I'm 6'4", and These bought me the leg support I want, but didnt really solve any head clearance in regards to the center roll bar structure. I'm going to get some miles on them, and see if I love or hate them.

I did both front seats, the wife is 6'2" and all legs, so she will appreciate this mod as much as I do, lol

You didn’t get the system (same company) that cuts off the rear feet to the front seat and relocates them. I’m a big boy + 6’3” and I’m good. You don’t use the 2” front rake blocks. Mine are 1”.

No i didnt get the slammers, I am considering it though. My head still touches. Ugh
